Romance Erotica Sensual

Being the Harvester, Chur must take the virginities of the young woman so that they may be free to find their mates. Chur has become disillusioned by his third Harvest. Adding to his dismay is the fact that his loyal servant, his Paratanist, has Chur take her own virginity. Chur is bound by duty and is unsure of what to do. He feels as if he was tricked into things by his Paratanist Enovese. As the two decide on how to proceed they begin to learn about themselves and the actual ritual of the Harvest as well as the people in it. Through royalty subterfuge and Harvester challenges Chur and Enovese must learn to trust one another. Can Chur give up his duty and claim Enovese as his mate or will he forever hold his grudge and make her pay for her deception? Chur is confused as to what to do. Does he love Enovese enough to leave his duty and free them both?

Enovese learns many secrets about where the Paratanist come from and just what their roles in the Harvest are. She begins to seek knowledge and what she learns could destroy them both. As she fights for what is right Chur must decide for himself what he must do. It seems that at every turn there is something stopping them. Will the love they feel for each other be enough or will they lose in the end? Full of scheming, deception and most of all love, this book is a wonderful tale of two people who would give up everything for each other. WICKED HARVEST is an interesting read. A fast paced story that keeps the reader glued to the pages from the beginning to end. I enjoyed the drama that enfolded in this book and the love that developed between Chur and Enovese was a beautiful thing to read.

SUMMARY

Welcome to the world of the Harvester - a warrior bound to take virginity, but never pleasure - and the servant who exists to prepare him for his role. For them, sex equals duty. Until the rules fall aside...and pleasure takes over...For Chur, a year's preparation comes down to the single day on which he encounters a succession of exquisitely adorned young virgins. One thrust from Chur frees the women to find their perfect mates...yet he is forbidden to enjoy his work. But Chur's third Harvest changes everything, for the final virgin is none other than his paratanist, a loyal servant who reveals herself to be a startlingly sensuous woman. Enovese has desired her master since she first laid hands upon him, but her scheme to free them both is complicated by Chur's prideful resistance. Until the Harvester declares Enovese his bondmate, they must maintain a dangerous charade of master and slave. But Chur is determined that Enovese pay for her deception - with delicious, teasing torture all the more pleasurable for being taboo...
