Bonjour, my name is André Chevalier. It has been my joy and my great honor to help those who have lost their way. Not long after I began my journey, I met two such wounded souls.
Renata Koreman, my little mouse. She came to me as a child—shy, mute, injured… broken. It took oh-so many years to start to bring her back to herself! Yet, I could not fully heal her.
Years … not fully heal her.
Years later, Grant Wilkinson, he too fell into my hands. The ex-Army Ranger was badly disfigured and saw himself as a monster. Isolated by secrets, solitary and self-contained, his colleagues affectionately named him ‘Frosty.’ Yet, how should one behave when besieged by a lifetime of confusion and guilt?
The moment I saw him, I thought of her and I wondered. The eyes, they cannot always see clearly. And the heart? Ah, the heart can only guess at the truth. So it was that I remained uncertain.
Could the mouse and the monster heal each other?
Behind a backdrop of secrets, scandal, and murder, the ABUSE trilogy (Abuse, Accuse, Avenge) is a realistic journey full of healing, twists, turns and surprises.

The entire trilogy, Abuse, Accuse and Avenge had me sitting on the edge of my seat in anticipation of what would happen next. The description and realism of the words evoked so many feelings within me. I cried, I laughed, I applauded, I got mad as hell at times, but mostly I felt a connection with the character. I was abused myself and knowing someone else understood my pain, or that of any abused person….it felt validating, somehow. Even empowering. An emotional, exciting, eye-opening ‘must read’ for anyone and everyone. The entire ABUSE Trilogy, from page to page, book to book, will absolutely not disappoint.
Abuse
This isn’t the telling of a story, in as much as it’s like watching the struggles of two people being guided by our beloved Andre’ Chevalier….Renata Koreman, just a child really when she came to him, mostly broken from a childhood of neglet & abuse, both pysically and mentally. .When she was 13, she and her foster brother Jamie ran away together, they lived on the street and slept in cardboard boxes, ate from trash cans, to her it wasn’t any different than living at home. She felt like she fit in with street people and felt “normal” for the first time in her life. She did enjoy sexual intimacy with many, she felt pleasure, affection and love. Jamie was her protector and best friend until one morning she woke to find Jamie dead beside her. Her Uncle Bob is called from a Psychiatric hospital about his niece , who will be 18 in three months, has been admitted. His friend , Doctor Jay Johson gave him Andre’s name. He will pay any amount to be rid of her. He is running for office and can’t have this embarrassment.
She is now 22 years old, has a degree in Psycology and works as a Sexual Surrogate that recieves payment for her Therapeutic servies. She has has worked with many refered to her by Andre’, but she wants someday to fall in love, have a home and children.
The second person I refer to is Grant Wilkinson, an ex-Army Ranger. He is badly disfigured and saw himself as a monster. He also carries aorund a lifetime of secrets and guilt that makes him isolate himself He is also an alcoholic, as was his father who is now dead. Drunk, he fell to his death. ..He left the Army on his 28th birthday and sought out Andre’ Chevalier five months later. He was highly recommended as one who helps people with deal with PTSD, stress and sexual problems…..Now, we know how smooth Andre’ is and his talent for getting to the heart of the matter, and so , over the coming months, sessions comsist of everything from hiking to camping and Grant opens up with Andre’s guidance and speaks of the games, the sexual abuse that went on at the hands of his own father. He speaks of the guilt & shame he feels for not protecting his younger brother when it started for him. His father committed the blackest of sins, but as a child,there was nothing he could do. After one such session, Grant felt mentally & physically beat, worn-out, but lighter somehow. Relieved, unburdened. Freed. In another session Andre’ brings up women. He learns that Grant has no experiwnce with women, they make him nervous, He has only had sex that he has paid for. Never a relationship.
Andre’, says “Mon ami”.. his dark eyes shine with enthusiasm. ” This is most auspicious. Oui, oui, most auspicious. I have exactly the perfect woman for you”
Now don’t go thinking that this is a boy meets girl kind of thing, they fall in love and live happily ever after……Oh hell no! there is so much more going on between the lines here and people I haven’t mentioned, on purpose. I never saw this coming, so you shouldn’t either! There is so much more to come…..
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Accuse
Chapter One picks up where “Abuse” left us. Renata and Grant are on the way to Dallas….. I will not go into the detail about the “therapy sessions”, except to assure you that they are indeed earth shattering smexy. Andre’ certainly knew what he was doing when he put the “little mouse” together with the “monster.” It surely seems that as Renata helped Grant, she too learned some things…. but, it’s not exactly happily ever after. Not by a long shot. Do you remember that frantic phone call Grant got from his mother? ( at the end of “Abuse”) Well, they did exhumed Chester Wilkinson’s body, and after testing, his death is now being called a murder, and guess who the prime suspect is? … long buried secrets will come to light. this could be bad, very bad….
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Avenge
This third book of the series is what “ABUSE” & “ACCUSE” have been leading up to…. the romance between Grant Wilkinson and Renata Koreman has grown into everything Andre’ Chevalier could have hoped for. When Grant came to Andre’ (in need of therapy) he put “the monster together with the little mouse” in the hope that they would heal each other. Grant now believes he has the best of both worlds. It turnes out Renata, his sex therapist is also his soul mate. They compliment one another in all things, especially in the bedroom, or any room for that matter! They continue therapy in the most erotic ways…. but an adult that has been abused as a child has many obsticals that must be addressed before life can be anywhere near normal. If that abuse was sexual, even harder. If that sexual abuse was at the hand of someone the child should have been able to trust …Well, I think you can see where this is going. We see the full depth, depravity, and lengths people will go to in order to keep their secrets. I’m talking about wealthy, well educated, and connected people, some in high places. People that can frame you for murder, or make your death look like a sucide. There are secrets within secrets covering up other secrets. No wonder these sex rings are so hard to take down. But at least for this story, our beloved Andre’ Chevalier has come up with a plan. Why would Andre’ do this you may ask? It seems our favorite frenchman has kept a little secret of his own….I was so enthralled by this whole Trilogy, but this last installment is not only an erotic romance, but a mystery/suspense/detective novel all rolled into one.
These book are written with abused people in mine, it helps them accept and heal. I cried, I laughed, and I wanted to read more. I loved Grant and cried with Renata. I love Nikki s book’s. She is excellent and inspiring author.
I felt for these characters.
you know what you can expect from this author,,,,and she NEVER fails ! ! !
If you research your authors then you cannot make an error in selecting
them,
This is one powerful story, abuse is a very sensitive subject, but Nikki Sex tackled it brought it to life. The characters are all well developed individuals with there own issues and layers. There has to have been a lot of time, effort, study put into the development of the plot and storyline of this trilogy. Secrets, lies, scandal, twists, turns, murder, healing, a wow wasn’t expecting that moment and a HEA.

Reviewed for Audiobook Obsession.
Added this to my personal favorite list. Very personal, educational, and steamy!! And Andre! Whew!!!
Great book very eye opening
Sexy take on Beauty and the Beast like only Nikki Sex writes with Andre as the matchmaker. Very good read.
I literally could not put it down.
kept me going through the whole book. Wow.
This series focused on recovery for abused children using Grant and Renatta as examples. As the found healing the plot moves toward discovering more children were trafficked than assumed. The search for justice begins for these missing children, a murdered forensics officer. Several interconnected scenarios result in surprises.
Abuse the Trilogy by Nikki Sex. A great book. Andre reappears in this book as well. He is a character you cannot get enough of. The book has so many layers and twists and turns that it keeps you on edge. It is another unputdownable that I just loved. Nikki is the best. A unique author. She is from Australia.
Abuse-
Where to start?!?!
Grant- I just want to hug him, though I know that won’t go over well. He’s been through so much. I want to bundle him up and keep him safe.
Andre- Andre is very passionate, charismatic and also a complete enigma. I have a feeling everyone, I MEAN EVERYONE, falls in love with Andre. Our French therapist almost has an all seeing, all knowing quality about him. I think its impossible not to fall for him.
Renata- Little Mouse is a blooming flower now. She hasn’t fully reached her potential. Shes just spreading her petals but even now you can tell she will be breath taking.
Nikki Sex has an incredible knack for a back story. All will be revealed and boy is it disturbing while endearing you to the characters. I may have originally been put off by the multiple POVs but they are necessary, no matter how seemingly random, to complete the full picture.
I’m hesitant to continue because I know things are about to be ugly in the present i stead of just the past but I need to know what happens.
Accuse-
I was so afraid of Grant being accused that I never stopped to consider how I would react. This rollercoaster of joy, elatiin, and growth is shadowed by the trauma and wide reaching dark cloud that is Grant’s father.
I can only cling to my hope like Grant that more facts will muddy the waters. Its safe to say Mr. Wilkinson deserved what he got and more…
I just hope our mouse and our monster get their happily ever after.
Avenge-
I feel Avenge(d). Nikki Sex gave me everything I wanted to wrap this series up. I am both happy and sad. I enjoyed how this all unraveled before my eyes.
Everyone who listened/read this book will feel it in the end. I was happy the way Nikki Sex made the world a better place in Avenge but so sad that it is only fiction. Imagine the impact that kind of legislation would have in the real world. (It brought tears to my eyes.)
Avenge is has its own superheroes. You’ve met most of them theough the course of this series but you aren’t done yet. Andre will always be my favorite therapist and the glimpse you get of his story is enough to make any reader tear up.
So much good in this devastating story of Abuse…
I orginally had a hard time connecting to the characters but no longer. Renata, Andre, and Grant will always be friends I can look back on fondly. (My husband is a big fan of Renata! )

I Loved this book
One of the best series I’ve read in a while. A few dark parts, but just as much romance and genuine happiness. Loads of psychology and inspiration in this series. Could hardly put these books down. I fell in love with the characters!
LOVE THIS AUTHOR!!! All her books!!
This type of book isn’t for everyone but I ended up enjoying the series. The scenes are quite steamy and i’ll admit, the first couple made me mad until I got further into the book.
I did not like this series
This trilogy! It was a difficult read at times because much of what happened to the main characters is based on reality
What a horrible thing to endure. I loved Andre and I loved the ending. I thought it was very good.
