“To purge her, to reclaim the lifeblood she’s leeched away. . . I’d entertain the darkest of deeds.”
Gwen Delroy was once the toast of the town, her words dripping with wicked wit and tantalizing taboo. Now, she’s nothing more than a suburban relic, dissecting her own mundane existence with the precision of a scalpel slicing through the cadaver of her own life. Her latest revelation? A simple formula for infidelity: husband plus sleazy interior designer equals blueprint for betrayal.
Armed with nothing more than a bottle of wine as a vessel of valour, Gwen is hell-bent on exposing the rot festering beneath the veneer of her meticulously crafted life, proving once and for all that when it comes to avenging the bonds of marriage . . . she’s more than willing to dig two graves.
The Names He Calls Me is a dark, biting narrative that flirts dangerously with the brink of violence and eroticism. Imagine a literary concoction laced with a sharp twist, crafted by a narrator whose flaws are as captivating as they are unrepentant. It’s the kind of story that will offer you a drink, crack a joke, then make off with your heart—and your car keys—while your back is turned.
Fun fact: Author is an actress and was main cast on HBO’s show The Idol.
The author is currently working on a screenplay adaptation for the book, which is being used for both feature film and short film consideration.

Because in the end, poems don’t just capture souls, they devour them”
I would highly recommend this book to readers who love an unreliable FMC such as in Gone Girl, The Girl on the Train and The Woman in the Window! Trigger warnings: Profanity, Sex, Violence, and Death
