Romance Erotica Sensual

Grace Hamilton is a young, impressionable, and idealistic woman. This idealism led her to make a horrible mistake; one that she knew that she could never take back, and one that she knew could ruin her future and that of her family. You see, she trusted Lord Wesley when he said he loved her. She trusted him when he said that he wanted to marry her. She trusted him enough to give her body before marriage. The pain that came after that mistake was immediate and she began to realize just how cold the world could be. So when she came across Lord Wesley's half brother, who wanted to protect her reputation and take care of her, she couldn't help herself from falling into bed with him to help wash away the memories of his horrible brother. When Devlin Sharpe came across a half dressed Grace Hamilton, he knew that his half brother would be involved. Just looking at her while she tried to hold her dress over herself made him want to throttle Lord Wesley. Just looking at her in that condition made him want nothing more than to hold her, protect her, and make her feel better. So when she said that she wanted to make love to him so that she could forget the bad memories Wesley created, he couldn't say no. He didn't want to. What he didn't realize is that once he'd had her, he would never forget her, never move past her, and that every woman he would have after her, would be nothing but a mere stand in for her. And after two years, he knew that it had been too long. He had to see her; had to be with her again. Grace had no idea what was going on when her carriage came to a screaming halt. The last thing she ever expected was to find Devlin Sharpe, the man that had helped her create such wonderful memories, and the man that she had never forgotten. Looking at him again was like drinking for the first time in two years, but she was not going to be taken advantage of. She was on a mission. She had to get to her grandmother, before she decided she didn't want to see her again. She'd waited all of her life to find a way to mend the hurt that had been created when her mother had run away with her father; and this was her chance. Not even Devlin could stop her from doing that. Devlin knows that Grace wants to see her grandmother, but he can't just let her go. Deep down he knows that whatever the connection is that they have, it's much more than just physical. So he makes a compromise. Grace will stay with him for one night and then he'll travel with her to see her grandmother. After their night together, Devlin knows that he can never let her go. After finally seeing her grandmother for the first time, she knows that the life she always dreamed of will never be a reality. Now her only goal can be to create the life that she desires with the only man that she desires. HOT SILK is a very easy read. The story is a very strong one, but if you're not into a lot of very explicit erotic scenes, this one isn't for you. Personally, I'm not normally a huge fan of erotic fiction. I often find that the erotic scenes are simply there to be there, and actually add nothing to the story; not the case with HOT SILK. Every scene in the book has a purpose, and that includes the scenes that are erotic in nature. All in all, not a bad read, and I'd definitely recommend this to anyone out there that's interested in trying something new.

SUMMARY

Two years ago, with her reputation already in jeopardy, Miss Grace Hamilton gave herself to a powerful, compelling stranger in one night of delicious, quivering ecstasy. Wild, bold, and wickedly sensual, Devlin Sharpe is a highway-man and pirate- a scoundrel whose world is ruled solely by pleasure. And now he has returned to claim Grace again, vowing to make up for the time they've lost, to take he to the heights of carnal abandon and show her the exquisite bliss of exploring the darkest, most decadent fantasies...
