Monte Carlo Days and Nights

by Susan Tepper

"Monte Carlo Days & Nights is the story of a love affair laced with fluid motives and an unpredictable balance of power. Reading these tightly locked, impeccably drawn chapters was akin to sitting with an old photo album that jolts presumption; the slight downturn of lips or lack of wrinkles around smiling eyes tease, invoking questions about passion—its veils and intricacies. Tepper’s details are precise sensory delicacies that beg meaning and lend themselves to a curiosity that grows with each exchange. As soon as I reached the sentences “I don’t feel nervous during sex with him. Only during normal.” I knew I would have to readjust my schedule to inhale this book at once."

—Jen Knox, author of After the Gazebo and The Glass City

"Susan Tepper smoothly guides you through a lost world reminiscent of F. Scott Fitzgerald's Cote d' Azur: glitter and glamour and pain, all in gracefully crafted scenes."

—W.F. Lantry, editor Peacock Journal
