A teenage pact. A dangerous deception. A woman who could ruin it all.
----
"Leslie Georgeson absolutely blew me away! This book hooked me from the start and I didn’t come up for air until I was done!" -- Kristen, Goodreads reviewer
----
Deception. Lies. Corruption.
I was innocent once. Not today.
My carefree days vanished the night my best friend was kidnapped, and my world fell apart.
I built it up again, weaving a web of deceit.
Now I survive in the shadows, surrounded by danger.
Watching over her.
My best friend’s sister.
Isabella.
A woman who burns me alive even from afar. She doesn’t know how my heart longs for her. She doesn’t even know I exist.
A pact from my childhood has been rekindled.
And she is in the center of it all.
I must keep my distance, remain out of sight. But I can’t seem to let her go.
She’s my world even when I have none.
In this life of ghosts, how can I give her a future when I am nothing but a Mocking Man?

“The Mocking Man” written by Leslie Georgeson is the first book in a romantic suspense duet. It tells the story of Alex and Rafael from Alex’s perspective. Alex and Rafe forged a strong bond when they were teenagers. That friendship forced Alex to take action into his own hands when Rafe was kidnapped. Now, he lives in the shadows helping Rafe and keeping Isabella, Rafe’s sister, safe. Will the Mocking Man be able to give love a chance?
This novel has all the ingredients to be absorving: romance, suspense, family and friendship issues and controversial and sensitive matters such as drug dealing and human trafficking. The characters are well-developed, and the descriptions and dialogues are exceptional. I strongly recommend it. Don’t miss it!
If you enjoy romantic suspense novels, you might want to check this one out. Not only is it filled with steamy scenes, but intense plot twists. Keep in mind though that there is a bit of adult content. Overall, definitely consider reading this book if you enjoy romance or just want something unique to read.
Throughout the 370 pages that there are in this book, the author lets us enter this twisted world where two friends' lives are joined together forever, specially after one of these friends have been kidnapped.
Georgeson is excellent in describing the settings, the situations and in making us feel that we actually know the characters. The story is easy-to-follow but it is recommended to read the second part of this novel so as to get a better understanding of the incidents.
As the author mentions, this book should not be read by children since it contains colourful language and controversial topics. However, adults will definitely enjoy this novel. It’s a great story to read in a week or so and to have a break from our daily routines.
Thank you, Leslie Georgeson. Great work :)
PLOT: Izzy is an Assistant District Attorney. She does her job very well. She is informed about a brother that she never knew existed (Rafe). Rafe is in jail when they meet and when she went to visit him, it started a chain of events and opened a can of worms…Dangerous worms.
Rafe who had been keeping a watch over Izzy, ever since he found out about her, tells her to make contact with: “The Mocking Man”, in the event of an emergency, because while he is in jail, he could no longer watch over her nor protect her.
One night out of curiosity, Izzy makes contact with The Mocking Man and he takes her on a series of tests. The Mocking Man is very good at what he does and no one ever suspects, because he’s a brilliant actor.
However, Rafe and Alex who long for a simpler life and to just be free, have to accomplish the impossible. Which is to get rid of Alvarez (Rafe and Izzy’s corrupt father), so that their entire families can be free.
CONS: Initial sex scene was wayyyy too long!
