TEMPT ME by R. G. Alexander is the second book in this
series. If you have not read the first book you are missing
out and will more than likely be lost if you do not read
these books in order. This book picks up right where the
first book left off. Unlike the first book this one is all
one story. Instead of three short stories about three
different couples we are treated to one couple: Angelique
and Gabriel and their story.
Gabriel has come home to visit his family, figure out his
roots and maybe even his own powers. Gabriel's father may
have done all he could to expel them and anything related to
his mother and sister but nothing can stop your heritage or
the spirits themselves. When Gabriel meets Angelique the
sparks ignite but he is afraid that he may hurt her and
tries to stay away. Love will not be denied, Angelique has
found the man she loves and will not be deterred. With the
help of friends and family the two find themselves and love
in the process.
It was fun to come back and visit with the previous couples
from the first book and seeing how they have grown and what
has happened to them since we have seen them last. While I
enjoyed Gabriel I cannot say enough about Bone Daddy. I
enjoyed meeting him in the first book and visiting with him
once again in this one. Gabriel is a wonderful man. It was
nice to see that no matter what his father did to him while
trying to distance him from his mother and her world Gabriel
still grew up to be a strong and happy man. Angelique is a
brave woman who is more than ready to fight for what she
wants. The two make a great couple. Each one willing to
fight for their love.
R.G. Alexander did a wonderful job of bringing this reader
into the magical world of New Orleans. TEMPT ME took me on
an emotional ride. Full of bad boys, spirits, voodoo and
even a curse this is a book that should not be missed.
In the sultry heat of the Big Easy, desire can be a
dangerous thing...
Gabriel Toussaint Giodarno has returned to New Orleans to
make amends with his estranged family. The last thing he
expected was to be hounded by a magical wannabe-guardian
angel-or to be tempted by a beauty who's strictly off-
limits.
Angelique Rousseau has always lived a safe, uneventful life.
But when her friend's twin brother arrives, Angelique finds
herself drawn to him. Neither Gabriel nor Angelique is
prepared for the intensity of their joined passions, or what
the voodoo spirits have in store for them...
