Under his touch, your every desire will…Bloom
Today is the day Francesca Thomas was supposed to get married. All she wants is a stiff drink and a whole lot of distraction…which is exactly when she meets him. Tall, dark, and deliciously disguised, the man known only as Phantom awakens her every sense. All Frankie really knows about him is the raw, untamed chemistry that makes her want to relinquish herself—body and soul—to his touch…
Phantom has rules, all designed to protect his identity. No names. No personal information. But Frankie is a too-tempting ingenue who threatens all of his cautious, careful control. At the ultra-exclusive Black Rose Underground Club, he can explore each of her deepest, uncharted desires…so long as he keeps his public life—and his secrets—hidden.
Frankie’s ready to explore what lies between them. The intensity, the darkness, and the unyielding pleasure of it all. But while the mystery of Phantom is thrilling, secrets are one game she won’t play. And if she’s going to explore the forbidden, she’ll begin with finding out exactly who’s under the mask…
Each book in the Black Rose series is STANDALONE:
* Blush
* Bloom
* Blossom
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The scintillating second erotic romance in bestseller Hardt's BDSM-themed Black Rose trilogy (after Blush) begins on what was supposed to be the wedding day of magazine editor Frankie Thomas and her now ex-boyfriend. After her sister, Mandy, announces that she and her own boyfriend are engaged ("Not only is she stealing my wedding thunder, but she's doing it with the proverbial perfect man"), Frankie picks a random bar to drink away her troubles in—and meets an enigmatic man in a mask who calls himself Phantom and offers to take Frankie to the Black Rose Underground, an exclusive BDSM club. College professor Hunter Stone adopts this Phantom disguise to separate his kinky sex life from his professional persona, but he soon wants Frankie to know every part of him. Their chemistry is hot, awakening new desires in Frankie—and inspiring her to pitch a story on BDSM to her editor at the Cosmo-like magazine where she works. This spooks Hunter, however, who worries his secrets will get out. Will their relationship survive? Hardt skillfully combines plot and heat, using the scorching sex scenes to move the story forward. Even when happy ever after seems a distant possibility, readers will never stop rooting for these characters to make it work.
