Cover Reveal ... The Sect by Courtney Lane



Cover Reveal 

of

The Sect
by
 Courtney Lane

Genre:
Dark Erotic Thriller

Release Date: TBA





Keaton Mara ran away from a life that had
become a nightmare to live on the streets. While the location she now calls
home is a dangerous place, she is protected by an unlikely friendship.
The streets provided her with the education
she could’ve never earned from the prestigious university she attended.
Regrettably, the term ‘educated fool’ becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. Due
to meeting a man with whom she shares a captivating chemistry with, her judgment
is clouded, resulting in a fateful decision.

The consequence of trusting the
prepossessing stranger results in her being stolen away to a place unknown. Her
deceptive new surroundings are just as beautiful as the people who reside
there. She discovers that it’s a place where the culture of sex without limits
or morals is their religion.

Keaton quickly begins to realize that the
beautiful scenery serves to hide a very dark truth. The seductive and enigmatic
man—who lured her there—desires to save her soul. His intentions are sinister,
because saving her soul is synonymous with breaking her.

Because Keaton believes her soul was
brutally stolen from her many years ago, she thinks he can’t save (or destroy)
something she no longer has.

She…was…wrong.

Warning: This book contains pretty much
every dark theme there is. Not recommended for those with any triggers or
sensitivities to violence, dubious and/or absent consent, and deviant sexual
acts.









I WRITE THE LOVE STORIES - NOT ROMANCES



I’ve been creating my own little world since I was very
young. When I was eight years old, I began to bring those worlds to life with
pen and paper.




Although I’ve had a few short hiatuses, writing has been
of passion of mine for many years. I've always viewed my writing as a hobby or
a purgative process; I never thought to share my very personal works with
anyone outside of my family. Now, I’m taking the plunge and self-publishing my
works. I’m very excited and apprehensive about the opportunity to share my work
with people who may enjoy it.




While I write across genres (I find it hard to stick to
one genre), I do have an archetype when it comes to the female protagonist —
they have to have certain brand of strength and layered personalities. There
will often be a lot of darkness and depth to my stories, because I'm intrigued
by characters who are thrust into "dark" situations that explore
their psyche.


Writing Science Fiction/Fantasy is my first love. If
there is one thing for sure, I'm a bit of a misfit when it comes to Romance. I
don't feel that I write romances, thus the tagline. I prefer gritty love
stories, where the protagonist isn't necessarily the girl next door, or the
girl you encounter in everyday life. In other words, I don't tend to write characters
who are easy to fall in love with.




The elements that will be common in my stories are:
depth, controversy, thought-provoking and complex plots, and misfit characters.
If literature that appeals to your senses and pushes your boundaries intrigues
you, then I sincerely hope you enjoy the journey.
