That sensual mouth.

Author Note: The Peacock is a 9,500-word novelette. Part of The Physical Collection: a series of sexy standalones written by A.R. Hadley. Literary fiction, not romance. The characters and their intense and realistic actions drive the plot. Contains graphic content that may trigger some readers.
Right from the beginning, I was there for the dark vibe this story was giving off. Between the steamy hot encounters to the mysterious stranger, this story quickly consumed me. The author surprised me at a couple of turns and had the story going a way I never thought it would. It did not end the way I thought it would and I really liked that.
I recommend this book a try if you like steamy with a hint of dark. I give it 5 stars.
