Limitless deception and manipulation that poison the mind within the perfect "marriage" in this dark thriller of taboo passion and secrets by New York Times bestselling authors, Marata Eros and Emily Goodwin.
Audrey's family was happy before The Community, their lack of wealth didn't stop their love for one another—until Father Weston convinced her parents to become part of his flock. He says her family they're special, deserving.
They're not.
Barely more than a teenager, Audrey joins the ranks of Chosen and becomes one of the other wives in the grand house on the hill. Father Weston guarantees she's the most special of all the wives.
She's not.
When Audrey begins to covet a forbidden man, who is not her husband, she must silence her yearning or risk a punishment so permanent, she'll never recover. Kiev attempts to resist Audrey as she inserts herself as an obstacle in the carefully laid path of vengeance against a father whose deceit has ruined his life.
As a deception too horrible to believe is revealed, can Kiev remain true to his design of revenge, or will his love for Audrey sacrifice them both?
Full-length novel. This book was originally titled: One of Many
Written ahead of its time! Poly is so hot right now and here we have a multi-wife psychological thriller with a dark journey and ultimate HEA.
I push my shoulders back and stare out the window, watching raindrops roll down the thick glass. The rain is relentless, going on all day with no signs of stopping.
I focus on a large drop as it slides down the pane, getting bigger and bigger as that one drop merges with others, bringing them in and making them part of the one. It’s one of many raindrops, but that single raindrop moves down the window as if it has a mission, holding my attention. It keeps rolling, gaining size—yet there is nothing to it. It’s clear, transparent.
Hollow. Void. Empty. The color of rain—Nothing.
I turn my gaze to Mom. Tears streak down her cheeks, as nonstop as the rain outside the church. She has one hand gently holding onto her necklace, the cross pendant glinting in the low light, the other is clutching Dad’s hand.
I shift my attention to Dad and think it looks as if someone ripped apart his face and stuck two different heads back together. His eyes hold shock and disbelief that the daughter he got instead of the son he wanted... has been Chosen.
I’m important now, a purpose. I have a role to fill.
I could save us all.
Or, at least that’s what Father Weston says. He’s told us the news: he had a vision within a dream, and I was in it.
That’s it.
All the details I get over something that will change my life forever. Something that will tear me from my familiar place within The Community and put me inside his house with the other wives.
