Misery / Stephen King.
"Bestselling novelist Paul Sheldon thinks he s finally free of Misery Chastain. In a controversial career move, he s just killed off the popular protagonist of his beloved romance series in favor of expanding his creative horizons. But such change doesn t come without consequences. After a near-fatal car accident in rural Colorado leaves his body broken, Paul finds himself at the mercy of the terrifying rescuer who s nursing him back to health his self-proclaimed number one fan, Annie Wilkes. Annie is "very" upset over what Paul did to Misery, and demands that he find a way to bring her back by writing a new novel his best yet, and one that s all for her. After all, Paul has all the time in the world to do so as a prisoner in her isolated house...and Annie has some very persuasive and violent methods to get exactly what she wants."-- from publisher.
