Sometimes a single touch is all it takes
to spark a wildfire.
Erin Warner learned that the day she
bumped into the dashing, tattooed stranger on a busy Chicago street corner.
She’s captivated from the moment his mystifying green eyes find hers, and it
isn’t long before she finds herself flying to exotic locales to assist him, the
award-winning erotic photographer Hunter Ellis, on location. What she didn’t
bargain for was the way he makes her blood bubble and churn with lust and
thinly-veiled promises of unfathomable erotic pleasure with every click of his
camera.
But there is more to Hunter than meets
the eye, including the intricately etched tattoos decorating his body that
disguise horrific scars from a past he refuses to revisit. As she peels away
the layers, Erin realizes that what she thought was true, never really was at
all, for both of them.
Now she can only hope that blind
adoration for the dashing stranger didn’t sign her death warrant.
The first in a thrilling new erotic
serial intended for mature audiences.
“Anxious, Princess?” he hummed, leaning across my
back, his teeth catching the zipper that ran down the back of my dress and
pulling it down one inch at a time. With my breathing ragged, the dress fell to
the floor in a whoosh of fabric and left me standing in a strapless bra and
nothing else.
He ushered me across the length of the
bench at the foot of his king bed. With my knees firmly seated on the cushion
and ass in the air, I turned as he shrugged out of the tux jacket and
unbuttoned the crisp dress shirt with quiet precision.
“Close your eyes,” he ordered, his eyes
boring into mine, and I saw the switch then. The lowering of his tone, the heat
that burned in his green irises. This was Hunter fucking. Hunter fucking was so
much hotter than Hunter shooting, and Hunter behind a camera made my stomach
swim.
I closed my eyes and turned away from
him.
I waited, my breaths slow and measured as
the goosebumps raced across my skin. I waited and I fucking waited, every nerve
in my body on edge, aware of every shift he made, until finally his fingertips
traced the curve of my ass, before both hands wrapped around my wrists and I
felt the rough fibers of a rope slipping against my skin.
“Wait.” I choked and pushed back, waves
of anxiety and guilt replacing arousal. As if he hadn’t heard, he continued to
wrap the long length of rope around my wrists and up my forearms before he
slipped the rope around one tall mahogany bed post.
My stomach curled and flipped, my arms
instinctively pulling back, resisting the control he wanted. “Hunter, wait.”
Words burned on my lips like fiery cinnamon drops.
“What?” he growled and his eyes darted to
catch mine.
“There’s something I have to tell you.” I
dreaded the words that hung on my lips. It was the wrong place, the wrong time,
but I couldn’t take it any longer.
“You don’t have to tell me anything.” He
tightened the rope with a swift tug and then his palms were back to running the
lengths of my arms and down my torso, my hips twisting as my thighs grew slick.
“There are things you don’t know—”
“I know more than you think I do, and I
don’t want to talk about it right now.” Giant palms jerked my ass against his
thick erection beneath the fine fabric of his dress pants. I wiggled and
sighed, wanting desperately to get lost in this moment with him, but the guilt
had been weighing me down, loading my feet with lead blocks that left me
stumbling and moving much too slowly for my own good.
“I’m—”
“Shut your mouth, Princess.” The fingers
of one hand dug into the flesh of my ass cheek, while a thumb on his other
pushed past my lips and into my mouth, forcing me to bite down. “Don’t act so
disappointed — I have you right where you like to be.” He leaned across my
back, his crisp shirt rough against my cool skin as my arms stretched to hold
the pressure of his heavy body. “Without control,” he growled and tightened his
hold in my mouth, forcing my head to turn and catch his stare. “I don’t want
another word from you until I say so.” His eyes flashed with warning. My pussy
clenched and my thighs shifted. He was right, this is exactly where I wanted to
be. With him I felt protected in a way I never had. My feelings were barricaded
by his imposing voice and giant body. Twisted up in his bonds and helpless, I
was finally safe.
My Review
Going into Blindsight, I knew that it was a serial so it'd a quick read but would hold a big punch. I also knew that it was written by Adriane Leigh so it would be super hot and ultra steamy. It was definitely those things but holy wow. Twists and turns and head fakes and secrets left my head spinning leaving me pining for part 2.
The story unfolded in a kind of round about way. It starts with a crazy intense prologue that segues into the meeting Erin Warner as she's running late to a meeting and literally runs into a mysterious yet gorgeous man that offers her a job. Eventually the story follows Erin as she begins working for Hunter Ellis. He's an artist that turns his intimate photographs into works of art. Erin becomes his assistant and follows him all over the world as he works. As they spend time together the chemistry between them goes from hot to supernova. Eventually Erin begins to fall for Hunter until at the very end, he revelations not only stunned me but stupefied Erin. All the while, interspersed into the story is the point of view of someone we don't know who obviously has some sort of connection it seems to Erin but whom she is completely unaware.
This story was filled with suspense, intrigue and sexual tension that I could feel all the way through my Kindle. The spark between Erin and Hunter was positively engaging even before they actually touched. Both are mysterious characters who I still don't have a full grasp on but that has only made me even more desperate for more. Buy the end I was dumbfounded by some of their secrets and need book 2 STAT!
