Synopsis:
Amelia Jones knows the truth; she lives and breathes it every day. The endless monotony of a loveless marriage, and years of domestic slavery stretch before her in minutes and hours that are destined to end in a mental breakdown.
Then Alexander Reeves walks through the door.
Her new boss is intriguing, charismatic and clearly driven by unspoken demons, and while Amelia knows she’s playing with fire, she’s relentlessly drawn to the man. Alexander is just as taken by her, but knows that giving into temptation can only end in disaster. When the couple succumb to a passionate, furious battle of the wills, Amelia is thrilled and afraid; Alexander’s erotic preferences are shocking to the uninitiated. The trouble is, wild as his life may seem, Amelia knows that he at least is living. Alexander may bring about her ruin, but he also holds the secret to her salvation, and Amelia prays she might be able to save him too.
My Review:
Five of five stars
An incredible book. I didn't see so many of the things that happen with Alexander and Amelia. I was pleasantly surprised with the story. Fair warming though, this is not for the faint of heart. You have to go in with an open mind.
Amelia Jones is trying to do what is best for her family, living in a monotonous, non loving relationship with her extremely distant husband. Her new boss brings something to life with in her that she didn't expect. Something raw, real, passionate and exquisitely forbidden.
Alexander is a mystery, slowly as a reader, we find tidbits about him. We see the balance of the dominant man he is used to being and the way that he bends for Amelia. Making her unlike any other woman for him.
Things happen... I wont say what... and your heart breaks for Amelia as she discovers the true man she is married to and having to decide between Alexander and her husband.
I seriously enjoyed the writing, the imagery that Alexandra I creates is wonderful as you read this story clearly unfold in your mind. I can not wait for the second part of this story!
