And the redness to my lips from kissing Leo’s. The pink tinge to my cheeks as I decide to ditch putting some powder on today.

The light surrounding my brown eyes as I apply a bit of mascara. Looking in the mirror as I brush the tangles out of my hair, I see something. Throwing the covers off my legs, I make my way to the bathroom, doing my business and then brushing my teeth. Taking a deep breath, I tell myself to calm down as I remember everything that we talked about yesterday and last night. I sit up, looking around the room and listening for any sign of him. His side of the bed is unmade and cool when I rub my palm over it. Rolling over, my heart stills in my chest as I find no sign of him. A smile curves my lips as I remember the orgasms Leo drew out of me yesterday morning. This review is also available on Goodreads.Stretching my arms up over my head, I feel a delicious ache between my legs. It would appeal to readers who enjoy low angst but intense story. I like how the connection between the characters was intense and the sex scenes were pretty hot.įrayed Silk is a story of pursuing happiness.

The revelation was a good one, which I didn’t expect and I’m glad it touched something that was not usually featured in romance. The book was a lot less angsty than I expected but I’m ok with it. I got the direction the author chose but I wanted one party to be featured more because that part of character/story development was stunted especially after something was expressed but never followed through. I won’t say which type this book is but I felt what happened was fixed too easily. When it comes to cheating, there are two types of story – the one that wreck it, or the one that mend it. His presence, despite not being the man I desperately want, is somehow soothing. Though, personally I wish she would have pushed more instead of just taking it. I understood her pain and her dilemma and I like how while she was dealing with her issue, she never neglected others around her. I could definitely put myself in Dahlia’s situation. I think it needs to snap, once and for all. I can’t keep hanging on by a frayed thread. I can say I didn’t regret trying this new author to me. And then I read the blurb, I knew I wanted to know more. This book first caught my attention with the beautiful cover. Starved for affection, she decided to take it even if it didn’t come from the man she promised her life to. Jared Williams came into her life when she needed him the most. When it all suddenly torn apart, she felt alone and was left questioning what when wrong.

For years Dahlia and Leo Vandellen had an enviable marriage.
