“We all wear masks, and the time comes when we cannot remove them without removing some of our own skin.” ― ​André Berthiaume

Therese Blanc has worked her entire life to achieve the image of perfection. Now with a beautiful Boston apartment, her trust fund, and a new engagement to a handsome young surgeon, it seems like all the pieces are coming together. All that remains is finding the perfect gown and completing her graduate thesis on “The Psychology of the Modern Cannibal.” However, there’s something dark lurking underneath the surface, and she has one sinister fantasy to satisfy before walking down the aisle.

That’s where Isaac Abrams comes in the man who openly accepts her for who she really is, warts and all. As their online relationship intensifies, they agree to finally meet in person. But when curiosity kills the cat, Therese struggles to hide the cracks in her facade.
