Seductive Psychological Suspense

Silver medal for the entire Romance category major or small press in eLit Book Awards!
Twenty-four year old Flair loves going to Addie's Float where she can always spontaneously claim a midnight slot to lie on the Epson Salt-heavy water in the darkness. She's working on a neb-psych playlist to listen to soon, but for now, she's still exploring the silent hour of relaxation and hallucinatory visions in the sensory deprivation tank nestled in the  little building in Addie's yard in the Indiana suburbs. Her subconscious is giving her a great show, her ideal man, hovering above her, activating all her senses. She almost feels like they're breathing together, merging into one, with beautiful touch, when suddenly she realizes the hand petting her hair is real! 

He covers her mouth so she can't scream for Addie. She feels his face so maybe she can identify him to the police, as she tries to imagine how he looks. He's slender but muscular, with an artistic haircut and full lips. They have a moment more intimate than she has ever experienced in her life. Then he pushes her toward the back of the tank and he leaves, blowing out the candles and pulling out the dim lamp, and all she sees is his arms as he grabs his clothes and runs.

When a neighbor spots him running naked toward his car, she calls the police. When Officer Bradley knocks and asks Flair if she's seen a man leaving Addie's Float, what will she say?

Does the mystery man know who she is? Does she know who he is? Why is he there? And why is everyone acting so strange about the thefts that have been taking place at Addie's Float?

Things get stranger and stranger, with anonymous threatening notes, three eerie narrow men showing up at the oddest places, disconcerting visual affects flashing on the neo-psych Facebook Groups...


A love story exploring the deepest levels of connection that can sometimes happen when the psyche is discombobulated. Will two bewildered new adults, juggling career, a passion for indie alternative rock music, and their complicated family relationships, find a way to keep the little Mid-Western town from falling to pieces? Or will they surrender to insanity?
