Toxic Temptations First Fracture

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

In the quiet corners of college life, Samantha Foster has always known how to blend in, to disappear. With her best friend Emily by her side, she's navigated her world safely from the shadows-until she catches the eye of Alyssa Wraith. Beautiful, magnetic, and utterly ruthless, Alyssa doesn't just command attention-she demands it. When she sets her sights on Samantha, what begins as subtle manipulation quickly spirals into something far more sinister. With each carefully calculated move, Alyssa strips away Samantha's boundaries, isolates her from loved ones, and replaces her autonomy with control disguised as affection. As Samantha finds herself drawn deeper into Alyssa's world of privilege and power, the lines between love and obsession blur beyond recognition. The very traits that made her invisible now make her the perfect target. Her empathy becomes a weapon used against her. Her silence becomes consent she never gave. Toxic Temptations is not a romance but an unflinching psychological portrait of coercive control and the invisible mechanics of abuse. It explores how easily a vulnerable person can be manipulated by someone who knows exactly what wounds to exploit, what promises to make, and what threats to whisper in the dark. When escape seems impossible and resistance feels futile, can Samantha reclaim her voice before it's silenced forever? Or will she become just another possession in Alyssa's carefully curated collection of broken things? A chilling reminder that the most dangerous predators don't always wear their danger on the surface-sometimes, they wear a smile. Content warning: Contains explicit depictions of psychological manipulation, emotional and physical abuse, sexual assault, and coercive control.

Autorenporträt

Destiny Miles, who goes by Milis, is a 29-year-old dark fantasy and psychological fiction author based in St. Louis. Her novels explore the razor-thin line between devotion and destruction, weaving sapphic power dynamics, corrupted bonds, and obsession-driven relationships into immersive, haunting worlds. Best known for Bound to Darkness, The Bonds That Bind Us, and Toxic Temptations, Milis crafts stories where love is never simple, survival is never clean, and power always has a price.

When she isn't writing, she's reading, gaming, hitting the gym, and connecting with readers who crave morally gray women, villain romance, and fantasy that cuts as deep as it enchants.
