Release Date: November 4, 2015

Synopsis

Kissing her made me want her. Wanting her made me take her. Taking her made her mine.

Aleksandr Azarov Black is a procurer of lost works of art—he gets the ungettable. Without remorse, he pushes the boundaries between good and bad.

Everything changed the day he met Rylan Archer, the woman his father arranged for him to marry, and the subject of a brilliant secret that Alek must keep. Merely protecting Rylan, however, isn’t good enough; he wants her for himself, and he’ll do anything to make that happen. Anything except tell her the truth. Rylan Archer’s life is an epic nightmare. During her last year in college, her beloved mother dies in a mysterious plane crash, and within six months, Rylan finds herself with a stepmother that hates her. Just when she thought her life couldn't get worse, enter Aleksandre Azarov Black, her stepmother’s half brother. Rylan can’t resist the bad boy of the art world, and she’s willing to put everything on the line to be with him. Separated by opposite sides of the world, they embark in an old fashion courtship, sharing their dreams and desires through the written word. When they finally come together, their passion is explosive and all-encompassing; their connection scorching. But not everyone is happy to see them together, and some will do anything to keep them apart. Alek vows to keep Rylan safe, but the secret he holds might be the one thing that destroys them both.

REVIEW

I received a ARC in exchange for a honest review.

4* read.

This is a new author to me and I didn't know what to expect from this book so was pleasantly surprised after reading it. A lot of twists and turns that will have you guessing and keep you interested. When you think you know what's happening BAM another twist that keeps you gripped. This is Alek and Rylan's story. Before they even know each other they were promised to each other in a arranged marriage, so when they meet they try to get to know each other. Alek feels a instant connection but will he and Rylan work out or will the arrangement go to hell?

About the Author

Smart ass by nature, writer by accident.

She's an Amazon Best Selling Author of new adult erotic romance and new adult romantic fantasy (under Dawna Raver).

The Indulging Series was her first new adult erotic romance series, and is proud that Zolt Hamil from this series was voted in top ten list of Fictional Boyfriends' Top Fictional Boyfriends

When she's not spending time in her fantasy world, Dawna loves NFL football, reading, and pretending she's a top chef in the kitchen---even though experiments often lead to ordering out.

Oh, and fawning over her dogs and husband, sometimes in that order.
