Our view
“Lights Out” is an explicit, tense dark romance that gives as much attention to its story as to its heat. A trauma nurse’s online fascination with men in masks turns up in her own bedroom, and the book plays that premise for both danger and feeling. Some seasoned fans of the genre find the hero too redeemable to be truly dark and think it suits newcomers better. It opens a trilogy.

About the book
A must-have hardcover collector's edition of Lights Out, the first book in Navessa Allen's New York Times bestselling Into Darkness Trilogy, featuring a new deluxe package with foil stamping, sprayed metallic edges, illustrated endpapers, a letter from the author, and an exclusive bonus chapter! I want someone with a soul as black as night. Someone who would burn the world down for me and not lose a single minute of sleep over it. Trauma nurse Alyssa Cappellucci doesn't need any more kinks. She likes the one she's landed on just fine. To her, nothing could top the masked men she follows online. Unless one of those men was shirtless, heavily tattooed, and waiting for her in her bedroom. She dreams about being hunted by one in particular, of him chasing her down and doing deliciously dark things to her willing body. She never could have guessed that by sending one drunken text, those dreams would become her new reality. I want things most people don't, craving darkness and depravity instead of light and love. Joshua Hammond has an infamous father--the kind of man that true-crime podcasts love talking about. He's spent his life avoiding the limelight, but his online persona is another story. At night, he posts masked thirst traps for his millions of fans to drool over, but one follower has caught his eye: Aly. After reading a comment begging him to break into her house wearing a mask, he decides to take her up on her offer.
