The Dark & Dangerous Thrillers Collection
Don’t Lie Back
You can always trust your therapist. Can’t you?
Nicole can tell within minutes whether a woman is really ready to leave. She’s built a whole career helping women walk away from men who control them, and she’s got the perfect husband to prove she knows what a good one looks like. Then a new client starts describing her partner. The way he talks. The things he does. And he sounds an awful lot like Luke.
Inside the story
You can always trust your therapist. Can’t you?
Nicole is a therapist who helps women leave the men who control them. She can tell within minutes whether a woman is serious about leaving. She has a gorgeous husband, a beautiful practice and a green velvet chaise where her clients lie back and tell her everything.
Then a new client starts describing her partner, and the details sound far too familiar.
Every session pulls another secret into the room, and somewhere in all of it, someone is keeping a diary.
Funny, threatening and impossible to put down, with an ending that will make you gasp.
