I’m filthy rich and dripping with power – but the
army left me broken beyond repair.
My jagged edges make me a nightmare.
She wants to join my dark solitude.
But where she seeks solace, I seek sanity.
The Velvet Rooms provide our sanctuary. A
place of safety, bliss and unbridled play, untainted by the clamor of reality.
Here, there is no sight.
There is no sound.
Only skin against skin.
Testing. Claiming.
But as much as I want her - she can never
truly be mine.
Because the madness always finds me. Even in
the darkness.
And this time it may be too late to stop the
beast from destroying everything.

Life Review
What a
delightful read, I was expecting lots of heavy sex scenes, and while they are
plenty in the book, they have a very sensual feel that made for easy reading. While
I love a good descriptive sex scene, it was very refreshing to still have
plenty of sex in a book but written in way that made my skin tingle rather than
my heart racing, it’s a reaction that I haven’t experienced in a book for a
very long time.
Blue Velvet is
told from both dual POV’s which allows the reader to become invested in both
the hero and heroine, they are able to tell their story. Both characters come
from different backgrounds but are ultimately they are both damaged goods. Through
the quiet and calm of the story they are able to heal each other.
Rowen, our
hero, was extremely likeable and hot. As a result of his time serving his
country Rowen is left partially deaf.
Once a rebellious kid, he is readjusting to life after the military. With
his Dom like tendencies, he seeks out a willing participant at the Blue Velvet Club,
where he meets Melina, instantly he is drawn to her.
Melina, the
bartender at Blue Velvet doesn’t break the rules, but something about Rowen
makes her take chances that she never taken before. From their first meeting
Melian is prepared to push her boundaries. While she is willing to take a chance
on a relationship with Rowen, she still has her own secret, her own shame that she
must overcome to finally be able to move on.
While this
couple experiences a few bumps in their journey, it is a insta-love that
neither character was looking for. As the relationship develops the reader is
able to feel the emotions that the characters are experiencing whether it be shame,
angst or lust.
This is a well written
story that overs a great depth of emotion. I haven’t read anything by this
author previous to reading Blue Velvet, but I will be checking out some of her
other books.
