I read a lot of Black Lace, and this has to be one of the best. In many Black Lace titles, the heroines have more than one partner, but in "Silken Chains", the hero and heroine are with each other exclusively. This reads more like a historical romance. Abby is escaping marriage to an older man, arranged by her guardian/uncle, and suffers a fall from her horse. She awakens in a manor house, which is decorated like an Eastern palace. It is ruled by a man they call Master. He is very gentle with Abby and the two fall in love. A very erotic coming of age tale. I enjoyed it very much.

It's actually a story that sets in the victorian times, where the high born ladies are kept from knowing and hearing about what goes on between men & women. Personally I think that this is a erotically sweet story being my first black lace book where it has a nice, short & simple plot of a high born lady who is ignorant & yet interested to know her passion & what goes on behind closed doors. HAS SOME HOT & EXOTIC SCENCES IN THE STORY.

I've read a number of black lace books this one fell short of my expectation. This book is set in a victorian setting with a curious virgin as the heroine and a enlish gentleman with strong eastern overtones as the "hero." This put me off right away, being not only increadably passe but completely improbable. This set up also had the side effect of jolting me out of the world the author was creating.

This book gets three stars because the scenes were good. The main characters in this book only have intercourse with each other which is a nice change from other black lace books. It also contains a lot of role playing between the main characters.
