Te he estado observando, Gwendolynne Price, ¿lo sabías? Cada día te miro en la biblioteca. Cada día siento la necesidad de tocarte… Cada día lucho contra mis instintos… No temas, querida Gwendolynne. No quiero hacerte daño… Solo quiero probarte. O acariciarte. Fantaseo contigo cada minuto que paso despierto. Mi único consuelo es imaginar que a ti te obsesiona también lo mismo… Cuando la joven bibliotecaria Gwendolynne Price encuentra unas cartas de alto voltaje erótico dirigidas a su atención en el buzón de sugerencias de su trabajo, las encuentra groseras, turbadoras y a la vez atrayentes pues conecta a la perfección con sus hasta ahora ocultas perversiones. Pero ¿quién será su misterioso admirador secreto y durante cuánto tiempo la seducirá desde la distancia? Una pasión erótica oscura y singular que lubricará tus fantasías y que te hará experimentarlo todo. La doble vida de Gwendolyne Price ha sido recomendada por Tracey Cox en su lista de novelas eróticas más tórridas en The Daily Mail.… (mehr)

General info

Jess and Ellis meet accidentally in the pouring rain. This starts a fling they both think will only last a few moments. They face their ups and downs whilst also trying to fight falling in love.

Things I liked

I absolutely love the idea of the story. I just wish my Dream Lover would show up and whisk me away. The story never gets boring and I was hooked until the end. I certainly hoped that Jess and Ellis would get their happy ending. They really deserve it.
I also love the characters. Jess is a 29-year old virgin, which on its own is unusual. She is a woman who has put everything on hold to take care of her nan and now that she is gone, is still trying to find her way back to her life.
Ellis has lost everything important to him. He’s a kind man, he’s not too domineering or forceful. He’s a lovely man altogether but he cannot get over his dead family. Let’s just say he is very different from the typical billionaire characters and I really liked that.

Conclusion

As a whole, I really truly love this book. It is a beautiful story with a happy ending and I’m so happy that I found this book and got to enjoy it. The story is beautiful and I recommend it from the bottom of my heart.

This was definitely one hot book and I enjoyed it very much. There's always something hot about secrets and masks and all that kind of stuff and this book was full of it. Also I cannot resists anything that happens in a library because libraries are like homes to me really. Also the fact that there was a lovely, hot professor involved, it made it all together more wonderful. This was the first book I've read from Portia de Costa and I quite liked her style of writing. I will be definitely reading more from her in the future.… (mehr)
