Just Say The Word

Some words unlock pleasure. Others unleash hell. For Athena Vale, language is more than sound, every word is a taste on her tongue, a riot of color behind her eyes, a razor's edge of pain or the most exquisite pleasure. In Cassian's hands, her mind is worshipped: every trigger a love note, every command a surrender to ecstasy and safety. But in the hands of Dr. Nolan Mirth? Words become surgical. Addictive.
Athena is the first mind that ever truly fed him-her terror, her arousal, her fractured beauty under the knife of fear and desire. He's tasted her secrets, felt her body break and bloom to a single syllable. After two sessions, he is obsessed. Nothing compares. No one else will satisfy him. If Athena won't surrender her mind willingly, Nolan will tear through anyone, give up everything, to possess what he craves.
Now, obsession seeps into every boundary. Each memory, each whisper, each word is a weapon: a promise, a violation, a slow, exquisite undoing. Cassian will kill to protect her. Nolan will kill to possess her. In a world where the same word in one man's mouth means salvation and in another's means annihilation, Athena's mind is the battlefield. Every mind has a trigger. Some people just love to pull it.
A dark, psychosexual thriller where language is the ultimate weapon, and the greatest vulnerability.
