Book description
Noa Simon is a thirty-six-year-old filmmaker who knows what she wants when she sees it, and when she meets Teddy Rosenfeld, an antagonistic, older CEO, she goes for the jugular. An electrifying encounter in a bathroom stall after their first meeting only serves to whet Noa's appetite, and despite Teddy's subsequent rejections, she is exhilarated by the challenge--and by her own insatiability. In her first power play, she takes a job at his office, setting up a battle of the wills that Teddy proves unable to resist. Their ravenous, volatile romance will ultimately unearth difficult secrets from both of their pasts, and finally force Noa to reckon with her deepest desires and most destructive impulses. Written with visceral intensity and voyeuristic precision, Rosenfeld is a propulsive tale of sexual abandon that titillates and interrogates in equal measure.Synopsis"Primal, graphic, and shocking, this is an erotic thriller you won't soon forget...In these combustive pages, Kessler masterfully excavates obsession, depravity, and difficult people." --Esquire, Best Books of Fall 2024 For readers of Luster, All Fours, and Vladimir: a brazenly sexy and scathingly candid novel about a white-hot relationship and the two intractable characters who emerge from it transformed.
