About this ebook

Living a comfortable life in a prosperous suburb, Craig is enjoying success in business, his young family, and a happy home. All is as he thinks it should be until, uninvited, a girl called Clemmie steps dangerously into his life. She's rich and beautiful, a whirlwind of a girl who has chosen him and never accepts no for an answer. Soon, Craig's charmed life is displaced by his new drowning obsession, a physical addiction to a relationship that he can't let go. Tracing the harrowing spiral of ecstasy and shame, none of their lives will be the same again.
