When physical pain allows you to escape your reality; what do you do when the pain is no longer strong enough to quiet the emotional ache?
Diouana "Nikki" returned to her hometown six months ago to tend to her sick mother. She thought she'd left her "baggage" behind her on the opposite coast, only to find that it never left her side. As her self-destructive thoughts begin to consume her, her mother -- realizing Nikki's torment -- pushes Nikki to complete her last wishes.

Eric Brenton, Nikki's new neighbor, lives in a dark, chaotic world that is easily hidden behind his model good looks and cocky demeanor. Unapologetic about his dirtier intentions, he sets his sights on Nikki with an offer to help her. But his help comes with very unorthodox conditions and a huge price.

And Eric...comes with an extensive black box warning label.

Review by Gia:
 There is a warning with this book.  The warning say: "Contains graphic language, frequent graphic sex, disturbing violence, and very dark themes."  Also the author has us  note the reader in the preface.  Please make sure you read the warning and author note first to determine if this is the book for you.    That being said, I loved Sordid Promise.  It's a great dark read.
Diouana (who goes by Nikki) had a lot of problems.  She returns home to be by her sick mother.  Eric is her neighbor.  The attraction between the two is not an instant connection but they end up having a relationship.  There relationship is crazy.  
This is definitely a mind twisting read.  I was surprised by a lot of the twists.   I really didn't know who was telling the truth.  In the end I still question a lot.  I don't fully trust Eric and then I was questioning whether Nikki was being truthful too.  It's a wonderful crazy read.  I can't wait to read more.  
5 Amazeballs Stars!!
Author Bio:
Ive been creating my own little world since I was very young. When I was eight years old, I began to bring those worlds to life with pen and paper.

While I write across genres (I find it hard to stick to one genre), I do have an archetype when it comes to the female protagonist they have to have certain type of strength, strong convictions, and layered personalities. There will often be a lot of darkness and depth to my stories, but I dont see the point in writing vapid characters who are thrust into safe situations.

Writing Science Fiction/Fantasy is my first love. If there is one thing for sure, I'm a bit of a misfit when it comes to Romance. I prefer my romances dark. The elements that will be common in my stories are: depth, controversy, and misfit characters.
