It was too late for her to escape. Unintended she becomes captured in his mean spider web. Drake won her compassion with his enormous intellect and glimmering charm. Something vastly magical happened around him. She begins a passionate love affair with him. Their life seemed blissful on the outside. Behind his malicious plan, it was chilling. Trusting him with her fragile life, she doesn’t see he is like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Believing him was fatal. Swindle wealthy patients, was his primary target. His manipulative behavior and scams end disastrously for Mary. She is a character in his horror movie. He sinks into his mania of deceives and lies. He is a predator! She doesn’t know anything about psychopaths. How does she figure out what she can expect from such people? Her life was never the same, but she learned from his evilness. The story is fictional, but it contains ideas based on real events. This is part one of the Burning Desire trilogy. It will obsess you.
