The Bedrock Series
Reads
In this dark and compulsive novel somewhere along the lines of Single White Female meets Basic Instinct comes a thrilling, addictively suspenseful, and haunting story that grabs the reader, and holds them captive until the very end. For fans of psychological thrillers, suspense, and the forbidden, Beyond Bedrock hands us a deceptively scary tale. “She was the worst kind of evil. And I opened the door and watched her walk right on into our lives.” Addison and William Hartman’s once tumultuous affair is mostly a thing of the past. These days it seems they have it all—that the world is literally at their fingertips. Settled into a marriage that is anything but normal, it appears they have the give and take in the bag. That is until Addison makes a fatal mistake. When Lydia Hammonds enters their lives, it isn’t because she needs a job. It’s because she wants everything Addison has worked so hard to build, and she’s hell-bent on having it—no matter the cost. Just when it seems that their strength together will overcome any obstacle, fate—or perhaps something more sinister—conspires to see that their worst fears come true.
