IT'S LIVE!
January Gallimore has arrived at a crossroad in life.
A short-lived scandal that had made her the darling of the BDSM community did little to damage her status as America's sweetheart. However, her career starring in romantic comedies hasn't given her any insights into figuring out her own love life.
For five years, January shared a long-distance love affair with French rock legend, Etienne Marceaux. Their relationship is passionate but comfortable. Caught in the whirlwind between New York and Paris, they indulge in stolen moments in between their chaotic celebrity lives.
Although Etienne certainly knows how to entertain her with his Dominance, January realizes that something is missing. Now a thirty-something actress, she wonders how long her career will endure, and she questions some of the decisions she’s made.
On a spontaneous trip with her best friend to Provence, January encounters a chance meeting with a younger Englishman, Nigel Hereford-Smyth. With his naivete and somewhat awkward aristocratic ways, Nigel, nevertheless, sweeps January off her Louboutin pumps.
As they romp about the French countryside, January tutors her young suitor on the finer points of BDSM, and Nigel unwittingly leads January on a deep exploration of what really matters in her life. While she allows herself to revel in the bliss of a possible new man in her life, she also realizes that Nigel carries his own set of baggage.
Forced to leave Nigel by her filming schedule, January returns to the hustle of Hollywood, only to find her confusion mounting.
Will she choose Etienne, who makes her body sizzle…or Nigel, whose charm and manners leave her SMITTEN?
A sexy love story set in France, what's not to love.
January is strong, and successful and sexy! She happens to be in a relationship with a successful singer called Etienne. Due to their busy schedules, the time they share is precious, but they still live apart after many years together. When they're together they sizzle in the bedroom.
I liked Etienne, he came across as caring, stylish and a doting dad, he was just very busy. Did I mention his a Dom and January is his sub and girlfriend - they like to play around. The kitten scene was something new to me, I did wonder how on earth do you stay in kitten character for so long without laughing.
A relationship needs to move forward, stagnant isn't healthy and January makes a brave decision and splits with Etienne after five years.
Every woman needs a bestie and Xavier is Januarys, his possibly a little stereotyped as a gay man and fashion designer, but I loved him <3 His frank and direct and January's sidekick and lifeline. Her other friend is her bunny, yes her pet bunny that she dotes on as someone would a cat or dog.
Enter into the mix an English gentleman called Nigel... the name Nigel doesn't exactly spring sexy to the mind, sorry any sexy Nigels out there! Don't let a name fool you, this quiet, unassuming man has a sexy side, especially when January gets a hold of him and starts an intense course of BDSM play while in the beautiful French countryside.
The holiday romance is hot and sexual, but the pair of them share a deeper connection along with all the fun.
This book is an erotic romance set in a beautiful landscape. The characthers came to life as I turned the pages and the warm and light-hearted conversations cooled things down in between sexy liaison times. The ending was as it should be.

Amazon bestselling author Juliet Braddock’s first efforts in creative writing came long before she learned to put crayon to paper. In fact, she began spinning stories in her head nearly as soon as she could form complete sentences. As long as she can remember, she’d always created sagas about imaginary friends, family members and pop culture icons, and kept everyone around her entertained with her witty—but often very tall—tales.
For her sixth Christmas, Juliet’s mother got her a child’s typewriter to preserve all of those creative thoughts filling her head, but she quickly switched to ball point pens and notebooks when the ribbon ran dry.
Most of Juliet’s early attempts at writing romance focused on members of Duran Duran and Spandau Ballet or young leading men on Broadway. However, as she matured as a writer, she decided that it was just as much fun to create her own romantic heroes and heroines.
At an early age, she also developed a love for big cities, and the tallest of skyscrapers were never high enough for her. Juliet’s wanderlust would eventually lure her to New York, a city she often visited during her formative years, and her love affair with Manhattan began. She’d promised herself that one day she would return for good.
Juliet’s passion for writing and for big cities converged, and after graduating with a degree in Journalism, she decided to set out on a journey to find her heart…just where she’d left it.
A week after her college graduation, Juliet made the big move from a small town to New York City, where she has made her home ever since.
In between building a career in communications and writing on the side, she’s indulged in international travel, theater and art. A wine and food buff, she’s by no means a connoisseur, but she can give a few good restaurant recommendations if you’re in the city.
“There’s something so inspiring about living in a city like New York that’s so rich in culture and so very vibrant. Every neighborhood has its own story to tell,” Juliet says. “I often do my best plotting on the subway, just observing the lives unfolding around me. New York truly has a billion stories nestled between the skyscrapers.”
Since she initially started writing, Juliet developed a condition called Pseudotumor, and while she is legally blind, she continues to turn out her steamy, romantic stories with the help of magnifying software for the vision-impaired.
“Throughout my lifetime, I’ve been through a lot, but I never let anything stop me from doing what I love to do,” Juliet says. “Writing has been my passion since I was a child, and as long as I have stories to share with my readers, I will continue.”
A proud New Yorker, Juliet couldn’t live anywhere else—except for Paris, perhaps—and is a gushing cat-mom to a Russian Blue mix who was rescued as a kitten from the streets of Brooklyn, where they make their home.
Juliet is legally blind, and spins her sexy romances with the assistance of software for the vision-impaired.
