GENRE: Adult Contemporary Erotic Romance Madeleine Norwood, lifetime resident of Rosiln Woods, had a day that goes from bad, to worse, to outright far-fetched. Nothing notable happens within her sleepy town hidden in the forest-until two mysterious brothers arrive in town. Julian, an upbeat and forward 20-something, and his elder brother James, a mysterious, brooding man are inexplicitly tied to Madeleine-in ways she herself could never have imaged. Her sleepy life is transformed overnight as a looming sense of danger settles in the air. As she grows closer to the auburn-haired, charismatic Julian, James' persona darkens. The more Madeleine is tangled within their web, one stark truth comes to light: the charming two of them are hiding a secret-one that will change Madeleine's life overnight. In the midst of this shadowy situation, Madeleine finds herself torn between her ingrained daily life, and her deeply permeating curiosity-and her blooming affection for these foreign strangers. But, she finds that the closer she gets to Julian, the more questions flood in and add upon each other. For Madeleine, at least one thing is certain: things will never be the same again.
