The Alastair Affair Series by Scarlett Edwards (#1-2)

The Alastair Affair is a dark romance series that includes elements of psychological and physical abuse coupled with suspense. The characters are not meant to depict a BDSM relationship. In fact, there is no BDSM. There is only the darkness of one man's mind... and the pains a young girl will go through to break into his heart. The series ends in a HEA... but the journey there will be dark, and very twisted. The Alastair Affair 2: Sylvain is told from Sylvain's perspective. The story begins with his release from prison seven years ago. Future books will alternate perspectives between Dani (in the present) and Sylvain (in the past). The timelines will converge for the climax and ultimate conclusion of the series.

The Alastair Affair: Dani (#1): It was supposed to be simple: A chance to get away for one summer and explore an old castle in the English countryside. A chance to discover the secrets of the past. I was supposed to be alone. Just me, a backpack full of books, and boundless enthusiasm in my heart. But I was not alone. He was there. Sylvain Alastair. A man of power, mystery, and great wealth. A man of darkness. He lured me in and made me his. I sensed the raw, twisted desires inside him... and gave into them. My lust for him became insatiable. He was my darkness. I was his light. I brought out his need for domination. He brought out my need to submit. And there, locked away in his castle... he taught me the pleasures and pains of The Black Tower.

The Alastair Affair: Sylvain (#2): Sylvain Alastair. A man of darkness, power, and great wealth. A man of secrets. Showing Dani only small glimpses of his true self, he nonetheless snared her in his web. But what makes a man seek the dark and embrace it like a long lost lover? What makes him wrap it around himself and revel in its existence?What happened in his past that gave birth to his depraved desires? Seven years ago Sylvain emerged from prison ready to take his rightful place in the world. Instead the Alastair family estate called to him. He could not resist its pull. There, he found his sister broken by his father's hand. Bound to her by the promise he'd made long ago, Sylvain was thrust into the world he'd tried to leave behind. But betrayal lies close at hand. A new, unexpected love affair catapults him into a twisted game of passion and intrigue that pits him against his father... and brings him face-to-face with the true Alastair family legacy, which corrupts all men and leaves no one untouched.
