PRAISE FOR THE AUTHOR
A Nicely Twisted Thriller
“I found the descriptions of small town America very effective and detailed, almost Steven King like. Some might find the graphic nature of the material a little too much but personally I found it fitted the tone of the book perfectly.” ~WildWoods30
Harrowing, Thrilling Read
“The book is terrifying, touching and uplifting by turns, and it’s also got a couple of big surprises that I wasn’t expecting. There are some very rough moments; the author does not shy away from showing the terrifying actions of her villain, or using the appropriate language to describe it.
Some parts of “Dark Eros” are not for the squeamish, but they’re absolutely necessary to the story. And more importantly, in reading them, you’re right there with Leila as she’s fighting for her life. I agree with another reviewer who commented that you’ll probably want to check that the doors and windows are locked as you’re reading!” ~James D.
NO WONDER IT WAS ONCE PRODUCED AS A PLAY!
“I read this at night and I have to admit, (even though I’m embarrassed to ) I had to stop and check the doors and windows cos I got a little scared.” ~Sadsack
