“I love when an author brings me to a place I haven't been before. One Cut Deeper is daring, edgy, and sexy. If you like your heroes with a dark side, you won't be disappointed!”
—Roni Loren, New York Times bestselling author of the Loving on the Edge series
The first thrilling installment in Joely Sue Burkhart’s darkly erotic A Killer Need series tells the story of a couple bound together by their deepest, most wicked desires
Her needs are dark. His are dangerous.
Charlie MacNiall has been bringing his beautiful king shepherd to the vet clinic where Ranay Killian works for the better part of a year.
She doesn't realize he's been slowly wooing her. She certainly has no idea that he picked her deliberately—that he’s already decided she is to become his. A broken heart and a desperate desire to be dominated make her want to fall to her knees for him, right there in the office.
Charlie fixes Ranay, testing her emotional limits while pushing her sexual boundaries past anything she'd imagined possible. Pain is their shared pleasure…until Charlie disappears and Ranay is all but destroyed.
The FBI says the man she loves is a serial killer. Ranay can't deny there's a darkness in Charlie, a monstrous hunger that drives him to the brink. She even believes he could kill. But Charlie's hunger is what bonds them—it's the foundation of their love. Ranay might be the only one able to keep him from surrendering to his forbidden urges.
