Publisher's Synopsis
"The game has only just begun, Bodhi. And the rules are ever-changing."
In the small, seemingly peaceful town of Eagle Lake, a dark undercurrent lingers, waiting to engulf retired FBI agent Bodhi Beckett and the mysterious café owner Hayes Kollyns in its seductive depths.
As Shadow Surveillance's brooding investigator delves into the chilling abductions by The Hangman-a twisted mastermind who leaves his tattooed victims dangling from nooses-he finds himself drawn towards Hayes' cryptic allure. Boundaries are pushed beyond taboo limits, indulging in Fire Play that ignites their deepest desires, all while hiding their tortured pasts from one another... and themselves.
When Tage Davis-an Adonis rumored to possess dangerous skills-enters the mix with his eyes locked on Hayes and Mercedes Garrett-an ambitious journalist with her own hidden agenda-sets her sites on Bodhi, the tangled web they weave becomes even more treacherous. Bodhi must navigate through this darkness before it consumes them all forever.
Will they uncover each other's hidden secrets before it's too late? Is Bodhi's wife, Tyler, truly gone, or will she resurface amidst the chaos? And can they expose The Hangman before another innocent soul falls prey?
Amidst whispered moans, where pleasure and pain blur together, one thing remains certain: nothing will ever be the same again once these dark desires consume them whole. So prepare yourself for what lies ahead in Eagle Lake-the secrets run deeper than its serene lake waters, and lust burns hotter than its fiery sunsets. Are you ready to dive into these shadowy depths alongside Bodhi and Hayes? Discover what truly lurks beneath Eagle Lake's deceptively idyllic surface-if you dare.
