About this ebook

THE COMPLETE DUPLICITY TRILOGY IS NOW AVAILABLE TO BINGE READ!

That's five books of realistically dark traudemption romance, brimming with angst, betrayal, and lust, set within a love triangle that everyone but the three stubborn souls involved saw coming years ago.

Tempting Fate is the first book in the Duplicity trilogy.

This steamy and taboo tale is full of the intense emotional themes that dark romance readers adore while playing into forbidden, age gap, love triangle, and second chance tropes. If you are a fan of heartbreak and redemption, and enjoy a good grovel from your morally grey heroes, the Duplicity Trilogy will tick all of your boxes...


Five years ago, I played a stupid game, and just like the adage warns, I won a stupid prize.

A lifetime supply of trauma.

Caught in the crossfire of an underworld battle that I wasn’t privy to until it was too late, I have found solace in the arms of my first love and peace in my deepening bond with my fiancé’s best friend. Between Zeke and Slash, I am over-protected, a little sheltered, but mostly happy. My dad’s motorcycle club acts as my buffer from reality. The escapades of my friends and my four brothers keep me safely entertained within my comfortable bubble.

Life is simple.

Life is good.

Until my violent ex-boyfriend is released from prison, and our lies and secrets blow up in our face once again…

Zeke leaves me.

Slash declares his love.

And I find myself caught in the middle of another stupid game.

Wow, so this is how a great trilogy starts! the amount of drama is unbelievable. Why does it have to be mostly about men obsessed over controling one woman? But I guess she's that hot... And the biker stuff always makes for an interesting read, too.

This is the 1st book in the Duplicity Trilogy featuring the dark and steamy taboo age-gap, emotional, forbidden, MC, second chance romance between Zeke and Lily. Lily almost didn't survive what happened to her when she was 18 yrs old. Now it's a couple of years later, and she's still trying to pick up the pieces and move on. She's engaged to Zeke, who's a member of the Black Shamrocks MC, and he's trying to protect her along with their friend Slash, who also wants to protect her. What happens when the evil from her past comes back? You really need to read this dark and steamy taboo age gap, emotional, forbidden, MC, second chance romance to see what happens. I would recommend reading this book. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

What a Thriller What a book with darkness and craziness that was a huge page turner! Lily has already been through so much but her childhood love, Zeke, would do anything to help her through everything. It doesn’t help that her father is just as crazy and with club drama this made for one heck of a page turner. I can’t wait for more from this author.

About the author

Bella Faust is a wife, mother, Harley enthusiast, metalhead, and voracious reader who’s obsessed with podcasts and 90s movies. When she's not writing, she tries her hardest to keep her indoor plants alive (and invariably fails), enjoys hiking in the bush with her husband and dogs, and communicates fluently via memes with her son and daughter. 

It’s likely that she’s drinking Pepsi Max, snacking on red liquorice, and reading a steamy romance novel when she should be writing… but, three to four times a year, she manages to publish a dark traudemption romance story that upsets the safety gang as much as it pleases her readers.
