AN INNOCENT WOMAN DETERMINED TO WIN THE DANGEROUS MAN SHE WANTS. In her grimy, coal stained world, Olive Thompson knows one thing for certain - Mr. Edwards is the one she wants. When she’s with him, every part of her feels alive, as if a stream under her skin ripples with passion. When he looks at her, a forbidden world glows in that gaze. She wants what he threatens, what he promises…no matter the price. A WICKED MAN DESPERATE TO SAVE AN ANGEL FROM HIS PROFANE DESIRES. Intuitively a man knows when a woman can unravel him, regardless of what he tells himself. James Edwards, master of the sensual and elite art of shibari rope, has always kept Olive Thompson at a distance. For two years, he’s endured constant vigilance, denial, and endless hunger … until today. Today he will steal a taste, something to remember after he walks away forever. Because who he is and what he wants are not for someone so pure. She thinks she wants him… she has no idea. AFTER THE DARKEST NIGHT, THE SUN ALWAYS RISES - WHETHER YOU’RE READY FOR THE LIGHT OR NOT.
Author

Elsa Holland writes lush, sensual stories set in Victorian England. They skirt the edge of gothic eroticism and dark romanticism giving them a rich, moody feel (which has nothing to do with the bowl of chocolates at the side of her keyboard or the pictures she chooses for her desktop). Her heroines walk fearlessly through the dark and her heroes are exactly the kind of men you secretly want to find there. She lives with her Viking-stock husband and her follow-you-everywhere dog, in semi-tropical Queensland, Australia.
