Romance | Romance Erotica Sensual

Celeste Connor is in Alaska for her best friend, Sabra's wedding, where she is to be maid-of-honor. Soon Sabra Donovon will become Sabra Nektosha, marrying Tarak Nektosha, a self-made Billionaire, Tarak discovered gold in Alaska, and built his empire there. Also a guest, is Nartan Lupan, handsome, hunky best friend and best- man- to -be. An instant spark, a charged sensual attraction to Nartan finds Celeste ignoring him and trying to stay far away from him.

The pristine setting in a granite bowl was declared "pure paradise" by Celeste and as she watches Sabra and Tarak, their happiness and pure love for one another is obvious and Celeste breathes a sigh of relief. She did not want Sabra to make the same mistake she made in her marriage to Caspian Devitt. She was a victim. Abused mentally and physically for years by him, they were recently divorced and he was in prison for abuse charges. The last thing Celeste wanted was a relationship with another man, any man. No way.

Torostreaming

The wedding was lovely. Now over and the newlyweds off for their honeymoon, Celeste heads to the Glen Stoke Lodge to enjoy some vacation time, long overdue. She is given the penthouse suite which is more magnificent than she imagined. A pair of snow pants, boots and a note from management advising her that everything is set for her to be airlifted to the camp on the glacier for dog mushing as soon as she was ready. She is off to enjoy her first activity but surprised to discover Nartan is there waiting for her. His welcome is warm, too warm, but Celeste goes along for a CAT climb over the ice to the dog camp and the dog mushing was pure joy. So was the dinner he planned for them at the Denali's private dining room. Romantic, heavenly, the attraction grows stronger until he has to leave to straighten our an emergency problem in the lodge, which Celeste discovers he owns. Angry she leaves and heads back to California.

Nartan Lupan, has it all. Owner of Angelino's, a five star stunning restaurant on the southern California coastline overlooking the beach, he lives in a glittering.world. Filthy rich, single, drives a powder blue Lambo, and uses his yacht to watch sunsets. He is a man that always gets what he wants and he wants Celeste. His courtship of Cecile was mouth-watering; flowers, catered dinners, horseback rides on the beach, sexy texts, more flowers and sex that was hot. She teaches marshall arts to younger kids and even that unique challenge that wipes her out physically can not rid her of her thoughts and dreams of Nartan. She is falling for him and he is not taking No for an answer.

When Caspian is released from prison he stalks Celeste and wants to get her back under his total control. Marcus, an ex-JAG, and boss in the legal office Celeste is an associate with, works with Nartan to find Caspian and it is an exciting adventure to an exciting climax. FILTHY RIC is a page turner and one you will find hard to put down. A sexy, romantic read that will have you rooting for that filthy rich guy that any gal could not resist. Locales of Alaska and Southern California stunning and Ms. Dawn Ryder has a new fan, Me.

FILTHY RICH is a tantalizing read with steamy sex, a combo that is hard to beat.
