The FINALE is right here!

Hi, book buddies :-) I am always pleased to read and share my love of books by Skye Warren. Do not let this little jewell escape you. It's deliriously kinky.

FINALE



Francisco never backs away from a challenge.

Isabella never bows down to anyone.

This scorching hot battle of wills may leave both of them broken.

MY OPINION

Beautifully written and powerfully sensual. The staging of the plot is magnificent with a lush atmosphere, luxurious lifestyle, commanding nobility, and the dark, sharp edge of an arranged marriage. 

This premise turns out to be intense, unavoidable, utter sensorial bliss. Imagine a smart woman driven to an arranged marriage to a duke in order to save her family's hotel empire. It's naughty and decadent.

I've been waiting for this novella for a year, so I was ecstatic to read it. Even though I enjoy this author's poignant writing and understanding sense of psychology, I confess the kinky side of her male character here did not sit well with me. It might be someone else's cup of tea, and I recommend this novella because it is masterfully narrated. However, the duke's idea of what should happen in his marital bed is not for me. 

Despite not being able to connect to the characters in their open-style marriage, I did enjoy the truth behind the duke's intimidating attitude and the clash of wills with Isabella. In the end, they reveal to each other that there's more to their union than a contract and steamy nights, and love can prevail. 

The pet was a cute and moving touch. Also, the epilogue is wonderful! Overall, I relished reading this author's words as always.

ENJOY AN EXCERPT

We reach the entrance to the cathedral. The powerful organ reverberates through the floor. Every single person—man, woman, and child—stands and turns to face me. It would be so easy to flush. To let my heart pound out of my chest and the blood rush to my face. 

Instead I lift my chin. I face them down with a calm expression. A Bradley at heart. 

Only, I won’t be a Bradley for much longer. Fifteen minutes, give or take. 

My father steps forward. I grip the sleeve of his tuxedo so tight he must feel it. He must feel my terror, but he doesn’t seem to notice. He keeps walking, and so I do the only thing I can—I follow his lead. I float down the long carpet covered in rose petals. 

At the end of the aisle, my groom waits for me.

Francisco Castille, the exiled Duke of Linares.

I suppose I should leave the “exiled” part off. It’s probably a touchy subject in his family. I wouldn’t know. I’ve never met anyone on the right side of the church. They move in European high society, while my family has been strictly New York City upper crust. This will be a merger of more than two people. It will combine businesses and connections. And, above all, this wedding will save my family’s entire world. Our livelihood. Our reputation. And the livelihoods of hundreds of thousands of employees. So if my groom is as controlling as my brother warned, then that’s the price I’ll pay.

That is the price I’ve promised to pay.

Francisco wears a tuxedo, naturally.

Some men stand stiffly in them. He looks as if he was born in that tux. As comfortable as I might be in my favorite sweater and worn jeans. It’s the royalty in him, I suppose.

Black hair. Thick brows. A stern expression.

So far away. The cathedral has to be huge to fit the guest list. Walking closer is like coming into focus, seeing the brackets around his lips, the small slash in his eyebrow. A scar, perhaps. How did he hurt himself? I have no idea. We’re basically strangers.

We reach the end of the aisle.

My father moves my hand into Francisco’s grip.

Then we’re left alone, two of us standing in a sea of people. About to be married.

“Fancy meeting you here,” he murmurs.

Through the delicate satin of my glove, I feel his strength. His heat. It’s a comfort, even though I barely know him. I match his dry tone. “I heard someone’s getting hitched.”

His lips quirk. “A wedding, you say. Nothing too fancy.”
