Very few mainstream authors have garnered the devoted following that bestselling author Leah Raeder has earned by pushing the boundaries of romantic suspense. Her carefully rendered anti-heroines buck norms, immersing you in a gritty world of sexual fluidity, drugs, and revenge, told with exquisite language and candor that turns the romance genre on its head and leaves readers begging for more.     Her latest novel is a tightly plotted adventure that follows closely on the heels of her acclaimed novels Unteachable-lush, haunting prose, deft storytelling, and scorching sensuality (M. Pierce)-the intense and visceral (Lauren Blakely) Black Iris, and the highly anticipated Cam Girl, and is sure to keep you reading late into the night.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49927372964113,"sku":"CIN1501115014G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53025745109265,"sku":"CIN1501115014VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1501115014.jpg?v=1751021799"},{"product_id":"bad-boy-book-elliot-wake-9781501154720","title":"Bad Boy","description":"\u003cb\u003eWake presents an intense, suspenseful, and unusual tale of romantic suspense that will make readers question their perceptions of gender and relationships. --\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e (starred review)\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eA fast-paced, mind-bending romantic thriller (\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e, starred review) about a transgender vlog star who struggles with a past that continues to haunt him as he sets out to prove that he's not a bad boy, but something else entirely: a good man.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eVlog star Renard Grant has nothing to prove: he's got a pretty face, chiseled body, and two million adoring video subscribers.
