No matter what this fellow writes I am "hooked, lined, and sinker" - he is that brilliant with his words and his stories. Not having a series (yet) all of Jake Malden's books are single novels, although a couple of his single reads could do with more embellishments and sequels. Yup, I am a huge fan. As a reader you will become enamored by his characters, story, and the sizzling sex. I fall in love every time with this author and I know you will too because his stories pull at the heart as well as the imagination.Now about this story....The story of Christian-believer Neely Jordan is focused on chastity and saving her gift for her future husband (whomever that may be; but there doesn't seem to be any promising prospects-good luck in that search, sister) but sometimes believing in love can seduce the heart as well as the mind. Fancy herself in love with handsome UK journalist Raymond Archer has Neely testing his dedication. And if you have seen Dangerous Liaisons with Glenn Close/John Malkovich or Cruel Intentions with Sarah Michelle Gellar/Ryan Phillippe, you can suspect our Ray involves himself in a nefarious debauchery game with US Carlotta against our UK Neely. So having seen the movies keep that plot in mind but hold onto your hats for the ending because our writer Jake doesn't finish his tale like our tv screenwriters have done. Worthy of reading but then Jake is a fantastic storyteller. Like I have already cautioned, you will cry, be touched, sad for Ray and pissed at Carlotta. That "B" needs schooled. I won't spoil the good parts. I will leave you to read for yourself.
