TERRIFIC Sensual Adventure, Oct. 17 2002
From the very first pages of this 500 page book the author will capture your attention starting with the prologue of a madman type 'Jack the Ripper' finishing up one of his dastardly deeds. So you know that there is going to be some mayhem and mystery here, along with the quest for the Shiva Ruby, at once beautiful and deadly for all that try to possess it.From the prologue you will first meet our heroine Barrett Winslow who is running in fear for her life along the London streets, guarding the secrets that will protect her grandfather. Along this same street that she will be pulled into the embrace of a mysterious dark skinned, foreign man in a turban, an embrace that will haunt the man and woman and change their lives forever. It is in that fateful contact that begins this story of greed, madness, treachery and a love so sensually described that will make your spine shiver and your toes curl! Although Barrett, is tempted to run away with him that very night, after the amazingly HOT kiss they shared, she refuses Pagan's offer and continues to run trying to elude the men who are after her. Too bad she didn't follow her first instinct, as she would have eliminated the next three months of torture and degradation that followed her imminent capture. Through the evil machinations of a madman, Barrett is found three months later by Deveril Pagan washed up on his beach in Ceylon. He doesn't quite recognize her as the dye she had been using to disguise herself in London had washed out. On top of that, the beard and disguise he sported in London were gone. Then again, Barrett had suppressed all the horrors and pain of the last three months and has lost her memory. Somehow, Pagan 'felt' he knew this woman from London, but also knew that she could never have ended up on his deserted beach without the help of his worst enemy. He fought his attraction, constantly reminding himself of the dangers but never quite conquering the all consuming desire he felt for this, his Angrezi. This is an amazingly sensual trip that two extremely stubborn and haunted individuals took. Both fight the unknown nightmares each had, trusting no one, nor their feelings. Through the discoveries made on their trek to Pagan's tea plantation in the jungles of Ceylon, amid the dangers both human and of nature, they come to trust one another, but more than that to let their love heal and soothe their nightmares away. Excellent writing, fast paced, exciting adventure, and very hot love scenes! Another winner for Ms. Skye!
