Description:
Matters of the heart are rarely simple and straightforward, and nothing could be truer for Fiona. In Foiled, a romantic thriller, the heroine of the novel is falling in love. However, what should be the best and happiest period of her life becomes a dark and dangerous time. Author Amyna is a first-time novelist whose lifelong affinity for crime, romance, and thriller stories has taken root in the form of Foiled. The book is a complex tale of a woman with a troubled past. Her family life was marred by an abuse so earthshattering she grew into a woman with deep but invisible scars. Fiona has tried to put her childhood behind her, but some things do not stay in the past. The psychological toll on Fiona has left her confused and vulnerable as she launches into a romantic relationship with a man who is perplexed by her unusually cold demeanor. Fiona tries her best to love and be loved the way she thinks is best, but not all is what it seems for her. Justin, her self-proclaimed protector, is continually lurking in the background. Is he good or is he bad? He seems furtive yet well intentioned, but can he truly be both? This uneasy feeling is juxtaposed with Fiona's love for her boyfriend, Rob. But Rob may not be all he appears to be. The heartbeat of the book is a constant, dark presence that trails Fiona. Will it ever be resolved? Who, if anyone, means her harm? Will Fiona survive in the meantime? Foiled is a psychological thriller that will captivate you until the last pages, and the truth comes out in a shocking conclusion.
