He was always rough. Always raw. He fucked me however he wanted— fucked my tits, my mouth, my cunt. He’d tell me when he wanted my ass in the future, he’d take that too. And then sometimes, rarely, in the middle of the night, he’d be sweet. Pulling me into his lap, kissing me, caressing me. Letting me fly but anchoring me with his eyes. Speaking words he’d never dare say in the light of day. Words that I’d never dare say in return. It was these times that I felt the most connected to him. It was these times that he scared me most.”A sinfully seductive erotically charged romance that was brimming with intensity, power, control, sex, deception, and an intricate web of secrets and lies. Laurelin Paige has completely hypnotized her readers as she lures them down the proverbial rabbit hole of mind games, sex and fourberie. With her seductive and gorgeous prose, she has captured our attention as she paints a literary tale of a young heroine seeking the truth of what happened to her best friend. As Emily Wayborn is immersed in finding the truth, what secrets will she unmask? Will the truth lead her further into danger? Or into the arms of a mysterious and dominating man? Is the truth worth it? In this wicked game of cat and mouse, will Emily Wayborn discover that the first touch might be the deadliest of all?
First Touch by Laurelin Paige was simply..PERFECTION!!!!! This book had every element that I wanted, needed and craved in an erotic romantic suspense. Ms. Paige has perfectly weaved a romantic suspense that was dripping with seduction, eroticism, and duplicity. She had taken her readers on a whirlwind adventure as Emily tries to seek the truth and whereabouts of her best friend, Amber. As Emily embarks on this dangerous crusade of finding the truth, all clues leads to only one man. Reeve Sallis. The last lover of Amber.
Still I couldn’t catch a breath. I chased it, gasping in between each swell, never quite getting anything in my lungs before the next rush. And I wondered if I’d die like this. Die flying, soaring, rocketing to heights higher than I’d ever been. Would this be the eternity I’d be allowed to dwell in? In this overwhelming pleasure , so abundant, so consuming, so amplified that there wasn’t room for anything else. No room for fear or doubt or worry or shame or grief. Just this.”In this seductive game, Emily makes her presence known to Reeve. She entices him and yet is spellbound by his dominant and aggressive manner. He is a man who makes Emily craves for his touch, his kisses, and the pleasure that he can only elicit. As Emily is caught up in the storm of integrating herself into his life, will she discover that this man has found a way to claim her mind, body, and soul with just his touch and presence. Can something so wrong feel so right? And the answer is yes. Unbeknownst to her, she soon finds herself slowly peeling her guarded layers to this enigma of a man. What will happen when she discovers that man she is beginning to fall for, was also in love with her best friend first? And what will happen when she discovers that this man not only demands her attention but her submission? Can she submit to this domineering man and let go?
Everything now was new. A start. A beginning. The brush of his hand across my cheek, though he’d done it many times before, it was as if this time was the first. His whispers were unheard whispers. The gasps at the back of my throat were sounds I’d never made. The way my knees buckled, how he pulled me tighter against him, the sighs between us— all new. This was our first surrender. First embrace. First kiss. First touch.”First Touch is a book that will hold you hostage. It is one of the stories that will sinfully satisfy you but at the same time leave you begging for more. It is a story that weaves layers upon layers of seduction, mystery and suspense. It is a story that will slowly unfold and leave you craving for more Reeve Sallis. His presence in each chapter held my attention and kept me hostage as he demanded to be heard, listened and obeyed. I seriously can't wait for what awaits for Reeve and Emily and how will Ms. Paige will unfold the truth. But what I do know, FIRST TOUCH was absolutely BRILLIANT. It was decadent, seductive, sinful, provocative, and consuming. A must read and one of the best books that I have read in 2015!!!
