| Lyssa Markham is looking for some good old-fashioned sex…very erotic
sex that only the members of the secret Platinum Society can provide.
After a devastating divorce that has left her feeling anything but
desirable, she can't help but be excited to have men and women staring
at her with desire in their eyes. But it isn't until she meets a
masked gladiator that Lyssa lets it all go. She dances a very
provocative veil dance for the masked man. But when their moment of
stark desire and longing is over, and Lyssa has come back to her
senses, she can't help but feel ashamed for what she has just done.
The many eyes of the club members were watching her in heated desire
and all of a sudden what seemed sexy and erotic becomes humiliating.
Lyssa believes that by running from the club, she will never see her
masked gladiator again, but little does she know that he has no plans
of letting Lyssa slip through his fingers.
Robert Savidge hasn't been so entranced with a woman in a long time. When Lyssa has to come to his law office for some legal proceedings pertaining to her divorce decree, he takes the opportunity to show her just how right they are together. But Lyssa isn't over the shame of their first encounter. Though she wants to experience a new kind of life now that her marriage is over, she's not sure where she wants her sexuality to take her. Can Robert be the man to help her explore not only her sexuality, but also the happy and spontaneous moments in life? Be sure to read this amazing story to find out! Dance of the Seven Veils is not only incredibly, sinfully erotic, but it features two characters that all readers will feel a strong connection to. Lyssa is recovering from a very sad period in her life, when she had to question everything she has ever known about herself. Robert is just as lonely as Lyssa is and when he meets her, the sparks fairly singe them both. These are very believable and intriguing characters that are in search for something, though neither knows what. Additionally, what was even better about Lyssa is the fact that she doesn't just grow sexually. She really does try to experience everything life has to offer and author Cris Anson clearly demonstrates the growth of her character with her unique and smooth prose. This is one story that will capture your attention from page one. It is also one of those stories that you will be sad to see end. Luckily, there's a sequel in the works for Lyssa's friend. This reviewer can only hope that it is as wonderful of a read as Dance of the Seven Veils.
