HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!! THIS BOOK IS WICKEDLY BRILLIANT!!
Aleatha Romig is another one of those authors for me that is an automatically a must read and one-click. Without a doubt, there is no hesitation.. I will one-click any book that she writes. Every book that she releases are completely devoured. What can I say but I love all of Aleatha Romig’s books. Ms. Romig will suck you in how captivating, bewitching, and eloquent her writing and storytelling is. Simply, Aleatha Romig owns me and I can’t get enough of her books.. And Insidious was no exception. I’m not even sure I can articulate my love for Insidious. This book was sexy, tantalizing, suspenseful, erotic, thrilling, hot, dark, edgy, raw, devious and a total mind fuck. Nothing is black and white. Lines of what is right and just are blurred. Life is not perfect. Family bonds are tested. The truth hurts. And when love and life are on the line, how far will you go to get it even if it means to kill? And so begins, Aleatha Romig’s fucking brilliant tale of Victoria Harrington in Insidious. Prepare yourself for this hot deadly game of sex, seduction, games, lies, and revenge.
You know what they say the most dangerous lies are the lies you tell to yourself. So Aleatha Romig will take you one erotic-raw suspenseful thrilling roller-coaster ride where layers of lies, wealth, truths, secrets, love, murder and deceit are intertwined and exposed. They say the truth will set you free? Or in this case the truth is one deadly secret of lies, betrayal, and duplicity.

In Insidious, we follow the life of Victoria and Stewart Harrington. Victoria was 18 years old when she married the successful 40 year old business tycoon. She thought Stewart was her fresh start since he made her feel so wanted and desired. He was her ticket to gain financial security for her siblings. Like in all fairy-tales there is always the prince charming or the shining white knight coming to the rescue the damsel in distress. Well for Victoria, the fairy tale ending of the HEA was non existent after a year into her marriage. Say goodbye to the prince charming because Victoria Harrington’s life is not a fairy-tale. It is more like a nightmare. In this tale, her life was nothing but lies, secrets, sex, duplicity and revenge. We all know the saying “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.” And behind a woman scorned, is the man who made her like that and this couldn’t be anymore true because Victoria Harrington was INSIDIOUS. Victoria will destroy you in the most beautiful way possible and when she leaves, you will finally understand why storms are named after people. So in this cunning deadly treacherous game, can you ever go back to being the good girl or is too late once you are INSIDIOUS?

Aleatha Romig is one brilliant storyteller and Insidious is another perfect prime example of her spellbinding ways. Aleatha was able to incorporate so much punch and interweave many layers into this book. It will shock, surprise and mind fuck you. Her storytelling will have you glued to your kindle and have you on the edge of your seats guessing on what will Victoria do. Hell, what am I saying, you won’t even know which secondary characters to trust and how important they are. Ms. Romig brought life to all her characters. These are not just fictional characters but characters that felt real. There were times as I was reading this book, it made me think I was watching a movie or a DATELINE exclusive. The storytelling of Insidious was PERFECTION because I didn’t know what to expect. Insidious is one of those books that must be experienced. It was dark, raw, twisted, and deviously sexy. As a big fan of Aleatha Romig, all I can tell you is to GO READ THIS BOOK! Prepare to get your ass owned by Aleatha. She will mind fuck you but at the same time I fucking love every minute of it.
