About the Book
Some betrayals burn deeper than fire.
When Hannah took over her late aunt’s unconventional business, she expected chaos—but not stalkers, arsonists, and secrets worth killing for.
Her girlfriend, Melanie, has spent years outrunning the past. But when cryptic messages surface and an ex-arsonist returns, it’s clear: the past isn’t just chasing her—it’s already here.
Enter Candace. Smug, reckless, and always five steps ahead, she holds secrets that could shatter them all. But she isn’t the only one watching.
Because someone else has been keeping score.
And the final move? It’s already begun.
With time running out and betrayal closing in, Hannah faces an impossible choice:
Expose the truth—and risk losing everything.
Or walk away—and lose the woman she loves forever.
Darkly thrilling, wickedly seductive, and laced with sharp humor, this psychological thriller is infused with passion, deception, and razor-sharp suspense—perfect for fans of Gillian Flynn, Tarryn Fisher, and Megan Abbott.
A deadly game of secrets. A love that won’t burn out. And just enough dark humor to make surviving it all worthwhile.

At its core, Silicone Solutions: Lies, Lust, and Latex is a psychological thriller wrapped in dark humor, tangled relationships, and high-stakes deception. It follows Hannah, who unexpectedly inherits her late aunt’s business—one that comes with more danger than she ever bargained for.
This isn’t just about running a company; it’s about surviving it. From the moment Hannah steps in, she’s caught in a web of stalkers, arson, and cryptic threats that seem to have a personal agenda. And when her girlfriend, Melanie, becomes entangled in the chaos, Hannah starts questioning who she can really trust.
Then there’s Candace—a wildcard who always seems five steps ahead of everyone else. She’s reckless, manipulative, and carries secrets that could either save them all—or blow everything apart.
But beyond the crime and mystery, Silicone Solutions is about power dynamics, control, and the games people play—in business, in love, and in life. It’s a story about people who think they’re making moves—only to realize they’re the ones being played.
