A taut, erotic thriller from the pen of Sarah Michelle Lynch, author of the thrilling Sub Rosa Trilogy.
Cleo wasn’t my real name.
The way I met Dante wasn’t ordinary.
What I was employed to do for him wasn’t romantic.
His job was even more strange.
I fell for a man I hated…
With a passion.
I became someone I hated in the process… A Mistress.
Only with guts, patience and determination did I survive.
Owing to my punishing schedule, I have a new novel for you, a novel I have written in secret, with no pre-promotion whatsoever. In short, I haven’t had the time to pimp this before getting it out there. Alongside all my other commitments, my writing is my therapy, my outlet, my escape, my thing – mine.
But I want it out there.
Tainted Lovers will hit Amazon a week today in paperback and eBook. For those joining me in Leeds, yes I will have copies. It is a novel of romantic/erotic suspense, over 400+ pages long. I’ve been to hell and back writing this thing! I am not doing advance copies – because I simply don’t have time – but what I will do is put the book on sale for 99 pennies for the first week.
Now, to the important stuff. So here we go…
Blurb
The most beautiful anti-romance you might read all year . . .
Adrienne and David meet in a library and the rest is history. Leaving their past lives behind, they race off to get married and make a promise of undying love. Waiting in the wings, however, are dark and deadly secrets threatening to tear them apart.
Their passion has never been up for question – but is there a limit to what love can overcome? Moreover, what does the future hold for Adrienne after she has her heart crushed, her spirit broken and her resolve disintegrated?
Are all great love stories destined to end badly . . . ?
**Suitable for readers 18+ only. Tainted Lovers is a complete standalone novel.**

I am currently holding this in my hand and the cover looks as gorgeous in real life as it does here. I loved writing this novel. Love, love, loved writing it. And also… hated it a little bit. My mind is shredded, and so will your hearts be.
Fabien knows he’s going to die—he just doesn’t know when exactly—and even though he has the love and devotion of the new vampire queen, it doesn’t seem to be enough.
He’s doomed.
He’s spent a whole summer knowing it may be his last with Juniper, the love of his life, and now he’s about to face his reckoning.
The shadow from the other side warned Fabien his task would become clear—he just never knew what it would involve. If he’d known, he might have chosen death long, long ago . . .
