Standing on a literal pedestal, with my arms securely bound in front of me with yards of red ribbons and my body draped in a short virgin-white Grecian gown, I experienced a twinge of divinity. I was his goddess for the moment—one to be admired yet possessed. I wondered what Gabriel’s expression held as he looked at me.
Pride? Lust? Yearning? Love?
I didn’t know because I was blindfolded.
Gabriel’s kiss ghosted on my upper thigh. Warmth settled low in my belly. I itched to run my fingers through his golden hair as my lips crashed into his. My captivity punished even as it heated my blood. Gabriel was right—this truly would be an exercise in patience and control. The ache for him already etched itself deep in my bones.
Denial and anticipation…it was the latest game I’d slowly learned to play with my devilish Gabriel Gordon…
Emma Adams and Gabriel Gordon were a match made in a strange and unconventional heaven. The brilliant billionaire and the ambitious girl from the wrong side of the tracks had a tumultuous history that spanned a decade. After seven years apart, they were finally ready to make a go of their passionate and near-obsessive love.
Together they had faced the revealing of his dark secret–Gabriel’s need to dominate in the bedroom. Together they had pledged to see their relationship through to the end. And together they would find love wasn’t enough when fear held the upper hand. Firmly used to being in total control of her life, Emma must face her doubts and insecurities if she was ever going to be able to accept the kind of dark love that led to Gabriel’s tormented heart.
