Book Description

Publication Date: January 1, 2009

One duel. Easy money. Then Gil fell for his opponent. A straight duel to the death. A professional opponent who's paying him to win. This was going to be the easiest money Gil had ever earned. Except he never counted on his opponent being a woman. And he never counted on falling for her. After avenging the brutal murder of her lover, all Lianon wants is to die a clean death. Too bad the man she hired doesn't do women, and he's furious over her deception. Not only does he renege on their contract, he has the gall to lock her up in his apartment-naked, no less!-to punish her for her ruse. If she could just get her mind out of the gutter, she'd cut him a new smile. But ever since he saw through her boy's clothes, all she can think about is getting him naked, too. But just when she's found something to live for, the father of her lover's murderer surfaces. He wants Lianon to die screaming-and he's all too happy to take Gil down with her. Warning, this title contains the following: explicit sex, including f/f; bad language; violence; bland, rubbery veal; a little sexual healing; and one killer blowjob.

I had high hopes for this book, and it completely exceeded my expectations. It started off good, and got better with every page. I loved tagging along on Gil and Lianon's journey to learn to love, trust, and live. Gil and Lianon alone would be enough to make me love and recommend this book, but they're also backed up by a cast of fascinating and complex secondary characters. I fell in love with them just as hard as I did Gil and Lianon.

If you're looking for a great romance with hot love scenes and a fascinating, well-developed setting, I can't recommend better than Kirsten Saell. Try it -- you won't be disappointed.

This is my 2nd book from the author in the series. It's a very sexy book but the story is a bit complicated. The author creates her own world but I think she forgets that she hasn't explained any of the background story to the reader. So there are parts in the story that you are completely lost is. However, the overall story is very cute and the sex scenes are hot!
