You've been cooped up alone in the middle of nowhere far too long. I'm arriving to relieve your tedium. and bringing a very big surprise.....
The surprise is Montague Bridgeman - and, courtesy of Fallon Gilchrist's dear friend, he's hers to do with whatever she pleases for one week. An inexperienced widow, Fallon is shocked at the idea of a private plaything. Shy and repressed, she decides to use him as her model and start painting again; he is a rather spectacular specimen of a man. Bridge, however, is hell-bent on awakening the reclusive Fallon to the sensual world, and she soon quivers under the force of his desire - and her own. Yet even more than these heady pleasures of the flesh is the haunted look in Bridge's eyes - a look that suggests he's much more than a lover-for-hire, and that seven days and seven nights might not be enough...for either of them.
"I
knew you'd be a hot little thing, all that simmering heat just barely
glossed over with a facade of coolness."
Fallon
flushed deeply. How could he know the fantasies that invaded her dreams,
as well as her waking hours? The images of unclothed limbs entwined. Sex-sweat
damp bodies. Moans and cries, and carnal delights she would never know.
How, in mere minutes, had he discovered her secret? She attempted to pull
away, but succeeded only in inflaming things further. Squirming in his
lap, she felt him harden. "Please," she said on a breathy sigh.
"It's not right." "Give me a second," Bridge said
throatily. "I promise you I'll make it right."

TABOO
by Kathleen Lawless
He was *hers* for seven days and seven nights. And what she did with
him would ultimately be considered "taboo".
"Taboo: proscribed by society as improper and
unacceptable" The Random House College Dictionary
Kathleen Lawless:
Erotic romance for readers who want *MORE*
Author's note: "I wrote Taboo when I was in Jamaica,
inspired by the island's lush tropical beauty, warm ocean, and loving
caress of sunshine and afternoon rain showers. I decided to write the
type of book I wanted to read because no one else was."
Released in October 2003 from Pocket Books.
Kathleen Lawless is the award-winning author of 9 romance novels. TABOO
is her first erotic romance. But not her last.
Praise for TABOO:
"TABOO is an engaging erotic romance in which the plot will remind older XXX aficionados of the movie The Devil and Ms. Jones…The key to this tale is the intelligent evolution of the relationship between the lead couple...sub-genre fans will appreciate this entertaining tale of a "Still Man in Motion" whenever his beloved is at his side."
-Midwest Book Review
"Kathleen Lawless` TABOO is quite a sensual historical erotic romance novella. It brings us the story of a repressed young widow who is afraid to get emotionally involved for fear of getting hurt, and the young man who lives for the moment but who ends up sharing more than just a good time with her. This book is filled with erotic interludes between the two main characters as Bridge does his best to help Fallon open up to him in more than one way. TABOO proves to be a rather quick and easy read that keeps the readers interest from beginning to end. I would have loved for it to be a bit longer though, as I found the characters very attractive."
I would recommend TABOO as an introduction to erotic romance
to those who have not yet tried the genre."
