Serena Folkes is a photographer,
and is so intent on capturing a night time shoot with her camera, that she
isn't aware of the mysterious stranger who stands in the shadows watching her.
This chance meeting with the enigmatic Gustav Levi, will ultimately propel
Serena into an altogether different and more adult themed world. Gustav is more
than twice Serena’s age, sophisticated, experienced and fabulously rich, and
whilst Serena isn't an inexperienced ingénue, she does come across as someone
who needs nurturing. Gustav promises to launch Serena’s photographic career in
exchange for an agreement that Serena will be his exclusive property ,and as
they become bound together by a silver chain, Serena is about to discover that
there is more to this enigmatic stranger than first appears.
I'm not a usually reader of
erotic fiction, so it’s difficult to judge whether this book is good by the
standards of the genre. All I can say is that overall, the book kept my
interest, and whilst I tended to skip over some of the more explicit scenes,
not from any moral objection, but more because I found them rather tedious. I
grew to like both Gustav and Serena, they are incredibly flawed, and yet
the author does a great job of showing both their vulnerability and their
strengths.
The ending of the book lends
itself into the continuation of the story in The Golden Locket.
No doubt this story will appeal to readers of the Fifty Shades trilogy and The Crossfire series by Sylvia Day
