There's nothing more dangerous than someone who has nothing to live for…

The man upstairs in apartment six doesn't belong here, in our rundown block on the slum side of the city.

High-class and educated, suited and booted, and at least thirty years my senior.

Yes. Thirty whole years.

But that doesn't matter. He's absolutely gorgeous.

What does matter is they say he's a disgraced teacher who preys on his college students. A filthy, sick man who deserves prison.

Other residents are always repeating the same morbid mantra.

Rosie, don't ever talk to that dirty freak upstairs, no matter what. Don't you dare!

So, I did what I was told and stayed out of his way, and I never ever talked to the man upstairs.

Not until one crazy bad night, in total desperation, when I had nowhere else to turn…

If there is anything I would say about this novel, it is that the story is unflinchingly explicit, with graphic sexual scenes that illustrate the intense physical and emotional connection between Rosie and Julian. This exploration of sexual dynamics is both a rite of passage for Rosie and a moral predicament for Julian, making their relationship deeply controversial, yet undeniably compelling.

Fans of provocative and boundary-pushing romance will find The Man Upstairs to be a riveting read. However, due to its explicit content and controversial themes, it may not be suitable for all readers

The Man Upstairs is a novel that delves into several heavy themes, including abuse and poverty cycles, sexual awakening, and the quest for betterment in life, along with redemption. Rosie’s struggles with her mother’s inability to move on from abusive relationships and the trauma of it remains all too real and constant, until Julian steps into her life, it’s explored also explores how challenging it is for those stuck in such vicious cycles to move forward in life and walk away.

While Rosie’s curiosity about Julian leads to a series of intense and explicit encounters, Julian remains locked in battle with his inner demons and attempts to protect her innocence, which is a losing battle at best. When Julian finally gives in to what is inevitable, the exploration of their mutual desires turns out to be complex, dirty, and powerful in a way that reshapes both of them emotionally.
Love Rosie and Julian!
