Review Tour + #Giveaway: He. by Gregory Pakis @GPakis @GoddessFish



HE.

Gregory Pakis

GENRE: Erotic Horror


BLURB:


A sexually open-minded couple, Lester and Val, have recently moved into a stylish yet eerie apartment building.

Val's curiosity is piqued when she starts to receive unusual messages and requests from an anonymous messenger.

Lester is also cautiously intrigued, as Val starts to fulfill the requests.

A suspected sex club soon becomes media headlines when a former member disappears, and the club is reported to have vacated its last premises.

As the messages persist, Lester and Val start to question whether the anonymous messenger is connected to the clandestine club mentioned in the media, and if there is any link between him or the club and the odd newcomers in the apartment next door.

Excerpt:

Val looked at the man again. He was definitely not a real estate agent. He was thick bodied; his muscles shaping the suit. Gold rings gripped his thick fingers. He soon found the right key and the trio let themselves into the apartment. Val stepped back from the peephole. They weren’t strange looking necessarily; it was just that something about them seemed off. The young girl looked frightened.

are they my new neighbours

where is the agent

they do lend the key sometimes

has the apartment already sold

Val sat at the kitchen table. Felt ripples of excitement. They were an attractive trio.

very attractive

mysterious

Her head raced with the possibilities of having the group as neighbours.

who are they

it's as if they came out of the walls

The young girl seemed submissive. Thin. Lithe. The older woman had a fuller frame. She strode down the hallway with authority. Definitely seemed to be the man’s lover. He wasn’t handsome, but his presence was strong. Purposeful. Val was sure he would put the women to work. The excitement of those images let off stabs in her stomach. Visualizations upon visualization. She soon cast herself into the scenarios.

when did i start thinking like this

is lester responsible

am i

She felt the walls watching her. She felt the presence of something again. It. It. That man. Again. Even though he was standing in the darkness, she could clearly see his silhouette. He was there.

My Review:

When I read the summary for He. I didn’t know quite what to expect but when I started reading what I found was somewhat different than what I was expecting. I think I was expecting it to be way more detailed than it was in certain areas.

He. has suspense and mystery that will keep you hanging on wanting to know more about what is going on. It has some very interesting characters that make you want to know more about who they are. It has a mystery that you want to help solve. A mystery that will keep you guessing page after page.

A husband and wife, Val and Lester move to a new apartment and meet some very intriguing people. I guess to spice things up a little bit Val and Lester start visiting a club in the area. After they start going to this club Val starts to receive some very interesting and disturbing messages. Val and Lester begin to wonder if the mysterious messages have anything to do with the new club they joined.

If you like mystery and suspense then I would say give He. a shot. Grab a copy of He. Today!
