Q: Why can’t I buy this ebook on Fable?

We’re constantly working to expand our catalog, but unfortunately we haven’t yet added this title. While we continue to work with publishers to offer more books for sale, we didn’t want our clubs to have to wait. For popular books that aren’t yet available, we’ve added light versions that can be used to discuss in clubs, to add to lists, and to leave reviews, but are not available to buy or read on Fable. If you need to buy a copy, we recommend visiting your local bookstore or library!

The first step is to download the Fable app. From there, you’ll be able to create your own private or public book club and invite others to read with you. Once your club is created, click on the plus sign under “Currently reading” and search for this book to add it to your club.

Q: Are book clubs free to join on Fable?

Most of our clubs are completely free to join. The only exceptions are clubs marked as “Premium” or “Career Development,” which do require a fee. You can find out more on each club’s detail page.

Publisher Description

The Manipulator

I can manipulate the emotions of anyone who lets me.
I will make you hurt, make you cry, make you laugh and sigh.
But my words don't affect him. Especially not when I plead for him to leave.
He's always there, watching and waiting.
And I can never look away.
Not when I want him to come closer.

The Shadow

I didn't mean to fall in love.
But now that I have, I can't stay away.
I'm mesmerized by her smile, by her eyes, and the way she moves.
The way she undresses...
I'll keep watching and waiting. Until I can make her mine.
And once she is, I'll never let her go.
Not even when she begs me to.

While not required, it is highly suggested to read the novella, Satan's Affair, first.

This book was previously banned on Amazon due to the trigger warning. Please read reviews or go to the author's website.

“This was my first dark romance and it really got me out of a slump. I don’t think this is a book that everyone will enjoy because it has some dark elements but i was only intrigued by them. Zade is now my favorite red flag character. I really enjoyed this book, i didn’t even look at which page i was at. It went by so fast. Jumping to second book immediately 🫡”

“my main problem with this book is that most parts didn't make sense to me. The reading experience suffers because HD tries too hard with the leitmotif of Zade being fucked up yet noble at heart without doing anything to build up a genuine understanding and bonding between them. It always felt forced because the writing fell short of convincing me otherwise. Perhaps she should have reconsidered some aspects or character traits to ensure it's consistent with the rest of the narrative.”
