the shadows series cover
Seductive Shadows (Book One) Charlie is a sensually-inspired art student, desperately seeking an escape from the abusive past that haunts her and a tragic accident that emptied her heart. Scarred and unable to love, her yearning for physical pleasure leads her into a tantalizing, dangerous world of power and seduction. The anonymity of the deal offers security; the money brings financial freedom and the madam is the mother figure she longs for. But the thrill of the mansion and its arousing dominance quickly fades when she meets renowned-yet-mysterious Cameron Hardy, whose intense baby blue eyes send a nervous flutter through her core. Cameron is sexy, and not in a subtle way. He stimulates Charlie's art, her intellect and her desires. Just as he begins to break through her emotional boundaries, she discovers a devastating connection between her past and her scandalous work at the mansion, shattering everything she thought to be true. Provocative, intoxicating and erotic, Seductive Shadows is the unforgettable tale of a young woman's self-discovery as she learns to forgive, to love and be loved, and to find redemption amidst a remarkable journey that will captivate your mind and stimulate your soul.

Seductive Secrecy (Book Two) "We were two broken souls who had found each other in a world of shadows. We were held together by a connection of secrets, dark and fearful and reluctant to leave. Their depth was seductive and overwhelming, an endless ocean of black that threatened to cover the brilliance we kept reaching for with each other." With her art career flourishing and the mansion predators no longer a threat, Charlie is creating a new life. Her desires have changed, and she has a chance at a healthy, loving relationship with Cameron--if they can bury the memories and doubts that plague them. Can they overcome the destruction of their clouded pasts, or will the revelation of more painful, shocking secrets pull them back into the shadows? These books are for mature audiences. They contain explicit language and sexual content. Please visit CLP Blog Tours for all the tour stops!



THE REVIEW

When I first started reading this book, my first thought was just how beautifully it was written. I could only dream of writing this beautifully!!

It had me hooked... and I had to know what was going to happen to Charlie and if she would finally ever find happiness.

I felt for Charlie, because she's led a tough life. There was the brief escape from her horrible mother with her best friend Emma and her family, but that all ended with Emma's death in an awful car accident. After Emma's family abadon Charlie, she is left with Lilly and her despicable style of parenting.

Now, at the age of 23, she's forced to take care of her mother who is dying and is feeling the pressure of the debt her mother has accumulated. School and her job are the only two things that take her away from her mother. Her one love is painting, and she's good. When her professer tells her he wants to show her paintings in a gallery, she's overwhelmed with happiness.

When a strange woman approaches her at work with an offer, she's more then intrigued. Whatever it is, it would take care of her mother's debt, and pay for more classes at school. Her problems would be solved quicker then she imagined.

Soon she realizes what this offer entails, and she's excited about getting started. There are rules she has to abide by, but she's ok with following them. She's being paid to provide men with their ultimate fantasy, with no strings attached...

I loved these books... I really did! Cameron Hardy... WOW!!! That's all I have to say about him... because.. just... WOW!!! Once she meets him she's fascinated...
