Betrayal is difficult to overcome when the trust is gone.

About Author Soraya Naomi
I was born in South America in 1984 and raised in Europe where I presently reside with my fiancé.
I read many genres but favor intense, dark, seductive, and provocative novels where the male character loves fiercely, without remorse or boundaries. I also adore forbidden love tales and have an odd fascination with kidnapping romances. No, I don't secretly want to be kidnapped, though!
I have a passionate obsession with the written word and indulge in chocolate pastries much too often.
My debut novel For Fallon (Chicago Syndicate, #1) was released on July 26, 2014. I’m honored that For Fallon won “Best Breakout Novel 2014” in the Novel Grounds Semi Annual Literary Awards.

SYNOPSIS

**DUE TO THE DARK AND EXPLICIT NATURE OF THIS BOOK, IT IS RECOMMENDED FOR MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY. **

Dark desires…Deadly secrets…Devious deceptions…Nothing is exactly as it seems in INSIDIOUS, the new erotic thriller from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author ALEATHA ROMIG!

When a powerful man is willing to risk everything for his own satisfaction, only one woman can beat him at his own game: his wife. Or so she thinks…
“Let’s start with you calling me Stewart. Formalities seem unnecessary.”
Stewart Harrington is rich, gorgeous, and one of the most powerful men in Miami. He always gets what he wants. Anything is available to him for the right price.

Even me.

Being the wife of a mogul comes with all the perks, but being Mrs. Stewart Harrington comes with a few special requirements. I’ve learned to keep a part of myself locked away as my husband watches me submit to his needs. But the more he demands of me, the more beguiled he becomes and that’s to my advantage. So I keep fulfilling his fantasies and following his rules because he doesn’t know that what he’s playing is really my game. And winning is everything, right?

INSIDIOUS is a stand-alone novel and the first Tales from the Dark Side title by ALEATHA ROMIG.

Review of Insidious
Insidious (Tales from the Dark Side, #1)Insidious by Aleatha Romig
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Title: Insidious (Tales From The Dark Side #1)
Author: Aleatha Romig
Series: Yes.  Each book is a standalone.
Release Date: October 21, 2014
Rating: 6 stars
Cliffhanger: No
Spoiler-free review

“I’ve learned my lessons well and played my role.  No longer willing to be a victim, today I’m insidious.”

Insidious by Aleatha Romig is absolutely brilliant. This new raw, in-your-face, erotic suspense thriller will keep you on the edge of your seat Romig style!  Insidious is a dark and twisted roller coaster ride that will blow you away.  Romig turned up the heat and mind-screw factor with this one. I will not tell you anything that will spoil this one for you. Romig has raised the bar with her highly skilled ability to weave together a compelling thriller with an intricate web of sex, lies and video tape.

Vikki’s wealthy parents...were far from perfect. Her drunken shopaholic mother and gambling addict step-father are in trouble. They must keep up their rich county club façade at any price. Debts are mounting, and someone has to pay for it all. Only in high school, and a few days away from graduation Vikki was given a deal she couldn't refuse. Her parents traded their daughter to the devil in order to cover their gambling debts and credit card bills.

In Insidious, we meet Stewart and Vikki and their “special” friends. Vikki is thrust into a world of sex, lies, murder and deceit.  There is no way out for 18-year-old Vikki.  After all, she signed away control of her life when she signed an air-tight contract…or is there a way out if you are Insidious?

Insidious reminded me of an erotic and fast paced version of Consequences. No one is Tony or Claire...but this is an entirely new flavor of dysfunctional coupling. Insidious is not a hearts and flowers romance...this is a sexually charged suspense thriller that will keep your head spinning as  fast as you can turn pages.  Romig’s new Tales From The Dark Side will be her next break out hit series.  Stop reading this and one click this one.

This review appears on www.kindlecrack.net , www.facebook.com/kindlecrack , Goodreads, Amazon, Google+ and Twitter. A review copy of this book was kindly provided by the author in exchange for an honest review.



Old updates:

Update:  I just finished.  WOW.

I have to share this with you...Insidious by Aleatha Romig is absolutely brilliant. This new raw, in-your-face, erotic mind-screw story will keep you on the edge of your seat Romig style! MARK YOUR CALENDARS for the October 21st release of Insidious. I'm over 65% into this book and I feel confident saying you are going to be obsessed with this dark roller coaster ride of a story. Insidious is going to blow you away. Romig knocked it out of the park with the first installment in this new series.

Spoiler-free review

"I'm here because six years ago I lost the love of my life, but now he's back from the dead, and in a few weeks I'm set to marry my best friend. His brother."

The characters in Here With Me are still here with me…in my head and my heart a week after reading this book. I devoured this “unputabledownable” book in one day.   This book cut my heart in two.  I knew from the synopsis that Evan wasn’t dead.  The way he was reintroduced back into Rylie’s and Evan’s lives was like ripping a band aid off. You know that feeling when you know you have to pull off a band-aid from a painful injury…and you know it’s going to hurt, and you want to get it over with.  I wanted it to happen….I was a wreck.  The way this story unraveled, the characters heartfelt emotions bled onto each page. This picture perfect romance turns into the ultimate gut wrenching, angst-filled love triangle.

Heidi McLaughlin hit it out of the park with the first book in the Archer Brothers series.  There is a cliffhanger…but do not let that deter you from experiencing this beautifully written, emotion packed book.  Here With Me is a must buy!

New Release Alert - Prisoner by Annika Martin and Skye Warren



Prisoner by Annika Martin and Skye Warren
Publication date: October 23rd 2014
Genres: New Adult, Romance


Synopsis:
He seethes with raw power the first time I see him—pure menace and rippling muscles in shackles. He’s dangerous. He’s wild. He’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.

So I hide behind my prim glasses and my book like I always do, because I have secrets too. Then he shows up in the prison writing class I have to teach, and he blows me away with his honesty. He tells me secrets in his stories, and it’s getting harder to hide mine. I shiver when he gets too close, with only the cuffs and the bars and the guards holding him back. At night I can’t stop thinking about him in his cell.

But that’s the thing about an animal in a cage—you never know when he’ll bite. He might use you to escape. He might even pull you into a forest and hold a hand over your mouth so you can’t call for the cops. He might make you come so hard, you can’t think.

And you might crave him more than your next breath.
