Masterfully crafted by Annabel Foxx, ‘Beach Man’ follows the story of two star-crossed lovers, the fierce triangle they are caught up in, and one man’s jealousy-driven rampage to destroy them both. While capturing many of romantic fiction’s hallmarks, Foxx takes the genre to new ground though a stop-at-nothing and raw showcase of love’s ultimate (and even possibly fatal) struggles.
New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/30/2015 -- While nobody will deny romantic and erotic fiction's rapid boom in popularity, both readers and critics are currently crying out for wholly-unique new narratives that don't succumb to recycling of the 'same old' concepts. Thankfully, New York's Annabel Foxx is stepping up to the plate with gusto.
In 'Beach Man', Foxx doesn't tread on eggshells when displaying just how tumultuous and dangerous love's emotions can be – both from those who crave each other, and from the betrayed who are left behind.
Synopsis:
Kim is a former dancer, who feels trapped in a loveless marriage to a jealous, wealthy older man. He blames her for crippling him in an auto accident that he himself caused. Kim strives to make the marriage work, despite her husband's blame, verbal abuse and bitterness. When she meets a wickedly handsome man on the beach, she fights not to want him, not to want a new life and not to fall in love.
But Derek is seductive and irresistible—a former soldier who has recently come to town to start a landscaping business. Kim falls hard for him, and he becomes addicted to her. Although Kim wants a divorce, her husband finds out about their affair, and devises a plot to destroy them both. They must struggle to survive a web of lies, deceit and dangerous passion.
"This book attempts to expose the darker side of sex, love and the rocky emotions they throw up," explains the author. "The destructive power of jealousy plays a central role, directly contrasting the lust and desire that bring Kim and Derek together."
Continuing, "After Kim's husband discovers her exploits, he seeks clever revenge. Kim and Derek find themselves in a dangerous situation that could destroy them both. But still, despite the risks they have created for themselves, Kim and Derek can't stop their obsession for each other. I'm hopeful that this is what makes the narrative so compelling and will keep the reader engaged till the last page of the novel." Foxx sees wide appeal for her work.
"Romantic fiction and erotica have become somewhat stagnant, and I am committed to breaking new ground by injecting a much-needed dose of realism into the story. This is just volume one of what will become a string of books, each cutting to the core of the human condition, its affinity with love and the toxic emotions that secretly lie in waiting," she adds.
*(Due to adult themes and sexual content, this book is recommended for mature readers.)

About Annabel Foxx
I love to read and write novels. I'm also a loner, who loves to drink copious amounts of coffee—and I won't turn down a good bourbon if it's offered by a handsome man... or indeed, by any other kind and generous man.
I'm a Scorpio, and I love the beach. What else is there to say? My cat, Count Elvis, loves cognac and Pop Tarts.
Reading on the beach is one of the great delights of life. Sun, sea and sand. Ahhh... and then I pick up a book and dive into a story.
My husband, Dane, is a diver and sun worshiper.
