Romance Erotica Sensual | Romance Paranormal

Xishi is part human and companion to Corum, the Midarri heir, in the world of the yama, the race humans call demons. But demons don't show feelings, so when young Corum begins to show emotions around Xishi, she is sent away to be raised in an orphanage.

As she reaches adulthood, Xishi is being trained as a courtesan. Corum buys her, not knowing she recognizes him. As his pillow girl, Xishi tempts Corum to show his sensitivity, and the erotic delights they experience pull them closer and closer to a relationship that will put them at odds with his family and the world he knows.

This latest foray into the demon world is sensuous, erotic, almost too hot to handle. Xishi is a delight, and while the love she and Corum share is certainly physically hot, it's also poignant. These stories just keep getting better. A very good read.

SUMMARY

Humans like to call them demons, but the Yama are an old and civilized race, far too civilized to fraternize with lesser beings. It is only through subterfuge that a quarterhuman infant, one Xishi Huon, is raised side by side with the Midarri heir, whose own peculiarities make her his soulmate — at least until the whispers of their unnatural fondness get her banished to an orphanage.

Coming of age as a courtesan, Xishi excels in the erotic arts. But when Corum Midarri becomes her new owner, the relationship will test the limits of her gifts. Corum is the Prince of Ice now and not the sensitive boy she knew. If he succumbs to the temptations of her human touch, their love will defy every convention his kind holds dear. If he doesn’t, his uncontrollable sexual needs might drive both insane.
