Romance Erotica Sensual

Certain Devils: The secrets of Grotto Cachee are generally kept by the visitors of the Chateau, but every once in awhile someone attempts to discover the truth and piece together the few writings on the subject. In the early 1800s, David Beckett arrives at the Chateau to recreate the beautiful gardens while doing his own research on the strange occurrences documented over the years. He quickly gains the attention of Lili, one the protectors of the Chateau, but the lure of the beautiful pools and erotic statues may prove to be too much.

Satisfaction: Isabel Archer is in love with Adrien Morel. Unfortunately, they both understand his family duty is to marry a woman with a gift of seeing auras. To make matters worse, Isabel is in line to take over her father's role as administrator of the Chateau. One of her duties will be to find a wife for Adrien, so she refuses to accept the honor. They are strongly attracted to one another; it will take all of their willpower with family close by to survive their unfortunate destiny of being apart.

WHISPER OF THE FLESH is an enticing and erotically intriguing new addition to this series. I love the history surrounding the story. A fabulous read!

SUMMARY

In this irresistibly seductive new book, Louisa Burton extends her most provocative invitation yet to the infamous Castle of the Hidden Grotto—a voluptuous sanctuary of pleasure and passion.

Hidden in a deep mountain valley in rural France is an ancient castle known only to an exclusive few. Here, four exquisitely beautiful immortals who thrive on carnal energy captivate and ravish their human visitors, fulfilling their darkest fantasies, their most secret hungers.

A chaste young British Jesuit poses as a landscaper to investigate centuries of rumored wickedness at the château, forcing him to confront the long-sublimated desires and urges seething beneath his own pious exterior....

The American daughter of the château’s dying administrator can’t bear the thought of succeeding her father, since it would mean playing matchmaker to the love of her life. The roots of her dilemma, and its possible solution, hark back to a weekend in 1972 when a group of free-loving hippies descended on the château for a few days of orgiastic revelry, where every convention was broken and nothing was taboo.

Step into the Castle of the Hidden Grotto and lose yourself in a realm of mystery, temptation, and intoxicating sensuality.
