BERKELEY, Calif.—Alison Tyler's Dark Secret Love: A Story of Submission was honored with an IndieFab award from ForeWord Reviews. The awards are bestowed upon top independent books.
As a literate and nuanced novel, Dark Secret Love encapsulates the IndieFabulous awards, which "shine a light on a small group of indie authors and publishers whose groundbreaking work stands out from the crowd."
Spunky and self-sure Samantha may be submissive, but knows exactly what she wants, and she isn’t afraid to chase it. Dark Secret Love follows Samantha’s quest for the perfect dom in an authentic, partially autobiographical meta-novel from literary siren Alison Tyler.
Violet Blue calls it "what all of us had hoped Fifty Shades would actually be."
Tyler has attracted a wide following with her true-to-life tales, hailed by The Guardian as "a sulphurous personal memoir of past sexual activities which put Belle de Jour's timid exploits in the shade." She has quite the reputation as a sultry spinner of tales, and her latest work is no exception. Tyler’s first-hand knowledge of kinky relationships brings a delicious realism to the story, making it a novel that only she could write.
Tyler has made being naughty a full-time job. Her sultry short stories appear in more than 100 anthologies, and she is a prolific editor of bestselling erotic anthologies like The Big Book of Bondage, Sudden Sex and Down and Dirty. In all things important, she remains faithful to her husband of 15 years, but she still can’t choose just one perfume. Find her at alisontyler.com and alisontyler.blogspot.com.
