Behind the spotlights and glamour lurk secrets and murder.

Amid the grim realities of wartime Britain, inside during the blackout hidden from the tatters left by the Blitz, glitz and glamour live onstage in the West End. But at one theater, The Regent, a malevolent force is causing escalating problems. Sabotage, damage and injury feed mistrust among the cast and crew.

Then during opening night, the hated director drops dead from poison, and Olivia Redmond’s colorful, kindly editor is arrested for murder. Determined to investigate, Olivia finds secrets piling up among the bodies. But which secret leads to a crafty killer who won’t hesitate to remove anyone in their way, including Olivia.

About Kate Parker

Kate Parker has long wanted to build a time travel machine. However, after several false starts, she gave up and created time travel by going back in time inside her books. Since she’s fond of murder mysteries, it is probably best that all of her travel is inside books or police from various ages would be hunting her. When not recreating old time buildings and fashions, she can be found with a modern computer and modern air conditioning in North Carolina with her daughter and a 115 lb. puppy who could just crash through any time barrier.

It’s time!!! ARC sign ups for Like Father Like Son by @darksmutauthor_kaseyr

Are now open!! You can find the form in @darksmutauthor_kaseyr BIO.

Sign ups will be open till June 21.

ARC’s will go out the last couple of weeks of June.

A MFM age gap taboo dark romance.

Blurb:
They were, by all accounts, the picture perfect couple. Then, Raze’s betrayal—a wound of the deepest kind—shattered Bailey’s world, and he vanished like a cloud of smoke. Bailey’s broken heart, seeking solace, found an unexpected haven in the arms of someone she had long considered off-limits.
Yet, when a long-kept secret, meticulously hidden from her, finally surfaced, Bailey was torn. Would she honor the call of what’s right or surrender to the intoxicating, dangerous dance of family loyalty and chaos? The solid ground of her former life was already dissolving. The familiar lines of her existence blurred, smudged by hushed confessions and stolen glances that promised both rapture and ruin.
Now, with Raze’s sudden return, the chaos was no longer a contained tempest; it was a raging hurricane. Bailey was caught between two men whose desires, as potent as they were treacherous, tore her apart in opposing, ruinous directions.
The true question wasn’t who she would choose, but how much of herself she was willing to lose in the process. The combined presence of her men, intricately woven with secrets and danger, presented a challenge that transcended her heart, threatening to redefine her entire existence.
The choices ahead weren’t about right or wrong, but about survival, and discovering who she was becoming in this whirlwind of conflicting desires and unfolding darkness.

✨️Release day has been moved from June 19 to the beginning of July. ✨️
