J.T. Geissinger’s Beautifully Cruel is a scorching hot read that explores the dark and dangerous side of love and obsession. Selena has always been fascinated by the evil she sees in the world, and Lucas provides her with an outlet for all of her twisted desires. He’s willing to do anything she asks – no matter how depraved – providing they’re both getting what they want out of the arrangement: pleasure, dominance, control…and cruelty. Selena knows there’s a fine line between love and madness…but it feels so good to dance on it.” K.
