| One midsummer night a year, the exquisitely scented Cereus opens its petals and with the coming of the first rays of the morning light, it closes its blooms. With the heady scent of the Cereus in the air, temptation blossoms between artist's model Melanie Fletcher and Marcus Alejandro. Never one to mix business and pleasure, Marcus is a complication that Melanie can't ignore. She begins to wonder, would it really hurt to give in to a night of pleasure? But will she be able to walk away in the morning?
Marcus is drawn to the beautiful and reserved Melanie he hungers for her passion. But with just a taste, he soon realizes he wants more -- much more than just her body. He wants to her ultimate trust. But getting her to intimately open up to him is harder than he could ever imagine, but worth any price. Ms. Delvay has a true gift with the written word. There is a stunning sensuality to her writing that seems to capture the reader's sense of wonder while drawing them deeply into the story. The Night of the Cereus is a feast for the reader's libido and their most lascivious fantasies unleashed. The characters are vibrant and sizzling and the depth of their emotions revealed will take your breath away as their hidden secrets and fears are brought to light. Both Melanie and Marcus's characters, by the end of the story, are open books with no secrets from the reader. The sexual tension that weaves it seductive magic around Melanie and Marcus is like a dance between the two lovers that is almost as sultry as the scorching hot love play that will have the reader wishes for a fan to cool off with. Readers won't be immune to this remarkable author! This book is a pleasure to read and one that shouldn't be missed! I predict great things for this amazing author!
