James Archer is so very lonely and miserable. A very wealthy but common merchant, James is married to a cruel viper of a wife who wishes him dead and throws her many lovers in his face, while he is not allowed to have any. James married his society wife to give his younger sister her London season in the hope that she would marry well. James' only solace is working long hours at his factory and making even more money than he already has. He makes the decision to visit a brothel run by Madame Rubicon in the hope that sexual pleasure by a skilled prostitute will give him some relief.

Rose Marlowe works for Madame Rubicon the first week of each month. Rose has no other choice since she has to pay off her dead father's debts, make certain she doesn't lose her family's property, and pay for her eighteen year old brother Dash's allowance in London.

When James meets with the Madame, he is nervous and ashamed that he has to pay for pleasure, but when he sees Rose, he is dumbstruck by her beauty. Rose is confused by James the first night they meet since all he wants to do is talk and hold hands. And then when James asks if he can come see her again the next night, she happily agrees.

Soon Rose eagerly anticipates the nights she shares with James. Not only does he treat her with respect, but he gives her amazing pleasure without asking for anything in return. James can't get Rose out of his mind and wants nothing more than to spend every hour with her, going as far as to invite her for a week at his country home where he's willing to pay any price just to have her near him. Both ache for one another desperately, knowing there is no future for them.

Evangeline Collins truly has written something special with SEVEN NIGHTS TO FOREVER. Rose is an actual prostitute who has years of experience. James is, hands down, the most adorable, self-sacrificing beta hero I've ever read. His degradation at the hands of his wife is heartbreaking. He is very much is a victim of emotional spousal abuse. He bleeds inside, silently suffering when all he longs for is a kind touch.

I really can't find anything wrong with SEVEN NIGHTS TO FOREVER other than James' wife being a bit too cruel and having no real depth. I also found that Rose's issue with Dash could have been easily fixed, but then there would be no story.

James Archer and Rose Marlowe are characters who will stay with you for a long time after you finish reading. Do yourself a favor and please pick up SEVEN NIGHTS TO FOREVER. It's really a beautiful, emotional, and sensual romance with an incredible hero and heroine.
