I just finished Beyond seduction by: Emma Holly and it was a very pleasant surprise. I don't know exactly what I expected but certainly not Nicolas' sweet, open, almost innocent character. I fell in love with him myself! The romance was sweet and believable. I loved Christopher's character as well.
Of course, sexually he was NOT an innocent at all! This book is more kinky than anything I've read so far but (at least in my experience) it is more true to life. It falls more into the category of realistic, to me, than actually kinky. People try things. A bachelor in artistic/creative circles would be very like Nic and Merry responded as flesh and blood.
Some people may be thrown off by modern wording being used but I think it helped to keep the mood real to life. Archaic wording may have been just as passionate to people back then, but to get the right feel I can see why the author used this wording. The reader would have already established an emotional response to the words used.
