Rosenfeld

"Combustive." --Esquire - "This novel should come with an X rating." --Los Angeles Times - "All intensity and desire...will have you turning the pages as fast as you can." --Chicago Review of Books - "A new spin on forbidden lust." --Debutiful

For readers of Luster, All Fours, and Vladimir: a provocative, sexy, and unflinchingly candid novel about a white-hot relationship and the two complicated people who emerge from it transformed.

Noa Simon is a thirty-six-year-old filmmaker who knows what she wants, 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 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 an unputdownable story of sexual abandon that titillates and interrogates in equal measure.
