Former stand-up comic Allyson Roy debuts with a sharp and witty voice in Aphrodisiac, a hugely entertaining debut thriller set in Manhattan and Brooklyn.

Something about Gwen Applebee’s death doesn’t add up. Sex therapist Saylor Oz knows for certain that late perfume-maker and fashionista extraordinaire wouldn’t have been caught dead wearing a fanny pack. So why was there one strapped around Gwen’s waist when her body was discovered? Not to mention the coded message embedded in her β€œsuicide note.” It seems Gwen stumbled upon an ancient formula with great powers, and someone was willing to kill for it. Unfortunately for Saylor, the villain did not get his hands on the formulaβ€”but in his quest he does get his hands on Saylor. Now she and her tough-talking best friend have less than one week to figure out where Gwen hid the formula. Between patients, parties, and an escalating flirtation with a hot local boxer, Saylor’s desperate hunt leads her from the dark corners of Brooklyn and the glittering skyscrapers of Manhattan to the beaches of the Hamptonsβ€”all while she tries to stay one step ahead of a ruthless killer.

With a dazzling combination of suspense, romance, and a wonderful laugh-out-loud sense of humor, Aphrodisiac will appeal to fans of Janet Evanovich, Jennifer Crusie, and Christina Dodd.

Author Note
