You meet someone. You date. You fall in love. You marry. The four simple rules of love…. Wrong! I’m getting married but I’d never met him before now, never dated him, never fell in love. I have no access to the memories of the most magical time of anyone’s life. My mind won’t allow me to evoke the past, I can’t remember those simple stages to lead me to the fourth .
I can’t comprehend why I would have ever wanted to marry someone like Dante. I should never have passed the first stage, although, I may have seen him through the eyes of the woman I once was, this me that lives, breathes here now, can’t understand how we made it to the next stage. I’m not sure, without memories, how I know that this voice inside me, telling me I would never have chosen him, speaks some truth, I just know. He’s controlling, arrogant, callous and violent, and utterly hell bent on humiliating and degrading me – Like watching me falter, watching me struggle to comply and be the woman he asked to marry, powers him- as though he wants to break me piece by piece. Fiber by fiber. Until all that’s here is the shell he created from a soul that I once owned.
Now my memories are slowly returning. And they show me a completely different side to meeting him. Our dates, falling in love. The Dante haunting me in the shadows of my mind is loving, gentle and utterly enamored with me, nothing like the man with me now. And this is what taunts me. My tender lover turned into a debauched, cruel sadist who is determined to consume my life, destroy my mind and murder my spirit.
I am, Star, and just like with some stars in the sky, the light you see is an echo, a façade, I am already gone I am a no one. Especially to him. To him I am the dark in his desires, the corrupt in his depravity. The sin in his immorality.

HOLY HELL! Ker Dukey and DH have done it again! Another mind blowing, nail biting, stomach squeezing, heart pounding 5 star MUST read!!
From the very first page I was hooked. The storyline begins with a woman who wakes up in a dungeon like cell not knowing...well anything.
"Who was I? Where was I? What was my name? Hell I didn't even know how old I was?"
When
her captors reveal themselves to her, she immediately feels a sense of
recognition even though they deny her accusations. With out her memory,
she is unable to connect the dots as to who they are and why she is
there. When she meets the man in charge, Dante Troy, she struggles to
fight the physical attraction that she feels towards him. Despite the
lust that is revealed back to her in his eyes, she is left feeling
confused and insecure regarding his true intentions. Dante Troy has an
agenda of his own.
"I
needed to remember my reasons for doing this, allow the ache molded
from betrayal and bitterness that was fused into my soul from an early
age rule here. I couldn't let my cock, my eyes or the fire buried deep
down in the pit of my fiber burn out the hate I had for her. I needed my
vengeance...I fucking earned it. "
What
Dante failed to anticipate in his well thought out game, was that
deeply buried embers would reignite and feelings would resurface. His
biggest miscalculation was that the woman he loved would fight...she
would fight for answers and fight to find herself.
"I
swallowed back the self-disgust, the humiliation and the misery and I
ate. I ate to give me strength, I ate to fuel my revulsion and I ate to
show them I wasn't done yet."
I
can not go on enough about how amazing this book was! I just don't want
to give you anymore details because I want you to experience every
single, emotionally entangled twist and turn for yourself! In true Ker
Dukey fashion, Facade was well written and the storyline was brilliantly
executed. I would HIGHLY recommend! No one does a dark read better than
Ker Dukey. If you have not read her previous and unrelated novel, Empathy,
you must read that too! It's another 5 star recommendation. This is
however my first book by DH, so excuse me while I head over to her site
to 1-click!:)

I have always had a passion for storytelling, whether it be through lyrics or bed time stories with my sisters. I wanted to be an actress growing up so I could live many roles but I learned early on that my mind was too active... I would want to change the script.I would watch films and think of ways they could of improved the story if they took another direction so i thought it best that i tell my own.
My mum would always have a book in her hand when I was young and passed on her love for reading, inspiring me to venture into writing my own. I tend to have a darker edge to my writing. Not all love stories are made from light, some are created in darkness but are just as powerful and worth telling.
When I'm not lost in the world of characters I love spending time with my family. I'm a mum and that comes first in my life but when I do get down time I love attending music concerts or reading events with my younger sister.
You can find me on Facebook where i love interacting with my readers.
