Whispers from the Hollow book cover by Alex Lee.

When Mia opens the door to her husband’s friend, she doesn’t realise she’s also opening another door—one that leads far deeper, into the forbidden thrill of temptation. What unfolds over a single weekend will change everything.

Whispers from the Hollow is a story that took me quite some time to write—partly because I travelled a lot during that period, and partly because I was also developing other projects alongside it.

I’d long wanted to do something a little different from my usual stories, while still keeping the emotional depth that defines my work. This time, I set out to capture that same intensity in a third-person point of view—a style I hadn’t used for quite a while, especially for something so intimate.

The story centres on Mia, a young mother, and Ben, who comes to stay at her flat so she isn’t alone with her child while Simon—her husband and Ben’s best friend—is away on an unexpected business trip. It was fascinating to tell this story through Mia’s eyes, and for much of the book, through Ben’s as well.

A hotwife story written through the wife’s perspective is always powerful, deeply emotional, and highly erotic—something I thoroughly enjoyed exploring. But adding the bull’s perspective made it even more compelling. Rarely does hotwife fiction delve into what the bull thinks and feels beyond pure pleasure and dominance. Writing some scenes through Ben’s eyes was almost as thrilling as seeing them through Mia’s. Navigating his thoughts and emotions—a young, inexperienced man deeply attracted to his best friend’s wife yet held back by loyalty and friendship—gave the story a realism and depth I didn’t expect to find in a short erotic narrative.

Although the entire plot unfolds over just a weekend—perhaps even less—I believe the emotional depth here is among the strongest in any of my books. The story is highly erotic and very conversational, exploring temptation, restraint, and desire through both characters’ perspectives.

What makes Whispers from the Hollow unusual is that for much of the story—perhaps two-thirds—the husband is present only in the background: in memories, thoughts, and conversations. He doesn’t physically appear until later, and when he does, it’s with impact—the erotic tension reaches its peak.

For me, this structure brought a new kind of realism. It allowed the emotions during the build-up—the temptation and restraint—and, later, the reflections and consequences of what happened, to come through far more vividly than if I’d told it in my usual first-person voice.

It wasn’t an easy story to craft, but it was one I completely enjoyed writing. It’s one of those stories that lingers after the final page.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed writing it, and I’d love to hear your thoughts afterwards.
