The Cottage — Gretchen Travis

POSSESSION

When Phyllis went to her banker to withdraw a substantial part of the trust fund left her by her husband, she desperately improvised a lie to cover the act.

For how could she tell the banker, an old family friend who had known both her and her husband, that she was hopelessly entangled now with a young man whose demands increased with every passing day and night…

…a young man who seemed determined to possess her entirely, her body, her money, her very soul…

…a young man who even now was confidently waiting for her to return to -- THE COTTAGE.
