Well, hello there, my lovelies. I see that you've chosen to read my book. I got a few questions for you:
Do you fantasize about being stalked by an attractive fictional male character?
Do you find villains sexier than the heroes of the story?
Do you prefer older men?
Do you prefer toxic, possessive, obsessive, and domineering male characters?
Do you like spicy books with a lot of drama, mystery, suspense and maybe some horror?
If your answer to all of these questions is yes, this book is for you and you desperately need therapy.

If any of the following makes you uncomfortable, please DO NOT proceed with this book. You have been warned, not once but twice. So, please, don't report me. Writing this book has gotten me through so much pain.
Full disclosure, I'm a victim of abuse, I suffer depression as well as crippling anxiety. Writing gives me an escape. So, please don't take this from me.
Initially, writing has never been a hobby of mine but it's become an accidental passion as it's proved to be very therapeutic for my mental health.
