Let the war begin!
Bianca Clairemont
and Lucius Hawkins both are in the upper crust of London society, but
they are not your typical lords and ladies, as they walk to the beat of
their own drummer.
Bianca, through an
arranged marriage to “Hawk’s” best friend Oscar, took Bianca to a world
that she would have never know in the 1800’s except for Oscar
introducing her to a world of sexual desires. A marriage without love
that did not survive was all that Bianca had. Upon Oscar’s death Bianca
was free to take lovers and gamble, some times loosing a lot of money.
She owes Hawk a lot of money.
When Bianca goes to
Hawk with a wager of her wanting him to be her lover for thirty days,
with him begging at the end of the thirty days to continue, she will win
back the money that she owes Hawk. Hawk wants Bianca to be his mistress
for as long as he wants her even if at the end of the thirty days she is
begging for him for more time.
While Hawk was
Bianca’s gambling partner he wanted more, as she was his obsession and
his downfall, Waterloo. Throw in an ex lover bent on destroying Bianca,
and the wager between Hawk and Bianca and you have an
explosive, tantalizing book to read. With the sexual under currents
between Hawk and Bianca, will they realize their desires and let love
in?
Fraught with the
danger of Bianca's ex lover Everett, who has an abusive side,
Wager of Sin is a suspenseful erotic story well worth the look!
Wager of Sin is an erotic book that hooks you into reading the whole
book in just one. Even thought it takes place in the 1800’s, you are
entranced with Bianca as a woman who is fighting for her independence,
Hawk’s ability as a man to fight for the woman he desires and the
strength of the story line to make this book well worth the look.
With two very strong
personalities coming into play you are torn between rooting for one or
the other to win, as the winner takes all. Not only well written, you
are drawn into the story's weaving, enticing tale. I not only enjoyed
this book, but it makes me want to go out and get more books by Jess
Michaels. I was pleased to find an erotic book full that was steamy,
with an excellent plot that grabbed and held my attention through the
whole book.
Definitely be on the
lookout for any book written by Jess Michaels! Anything by this author is worthy of
getting.
