The Fifth Wife

HE PROMISED SHE WAS SPECIAL. HE LIED.


🔥 A DARK PSYCHOLOGICAL THRILLER OF FORBIDDEN LOVE, OBSESSION, REVENGE, AND DEVASTATING SECRETS.


From NY Times bestselling authors Marata Eros and Emily Goodwin comes a chilling standalone novel where devotion becomes captivity, desire becomes dangerous, and nothing is quite what it seems.


SHE WAS CHOSEN. BUT NOT FOR THE REASON SHE BELIEVES.

Audrey once knew a simple life filled with love, even when her family had little else.

Then Father Weston came.

Charismatic. Powerful. Persuasive.

He promised her family a better life within The Community. A place where they would belong. Where they would be special.

It was a lie.

Barely more than a teenager, Audrey becomes one of Father Weston's Chosen wives, living in his grand house on the hill.

He tells her she's his favorite.

His most precious.

His most special.

She isn't.

And when Audrey begins to desire a man who isn't her husband, she risks a punishment far worse than anything she can imagine.

HE CAME FOR REVENGE. HE NEVER EXPECTED HER.

Kiev has spent years preparing to destroy the father whose lies shattered his life.

Every move calculated. Every betrayal remembered.

Nothing will stand between him and vengeance.

Until Audrey.

Her presence threatens everything he's planned—and awakens feelings he cannot afford.

As forbidden attraction ignites and a horrifying deception begins to unravel, Kiev must make an impossible choice.

Destroy the man who ruined his life—or risk everything to save the woman he loves.

Because inside The Community, love is forbidden, obedience is absolute, and some secrets are worth killing to protect.
