Romance – Page 4 – D.S.Dehel

A multicultural erotic romance for a wintry Thursday.

BLURB:

In a foreign land, a woman discovers exotic new realms of the senses.

“You were born to this. You may not understand, yet. You may not believe. But I will teach you.”

When software engineer Kate O’Neill leaves her lover David to take a job in Thailand, she embarks on a sensual journey that will change her forever.

In the glittering City of Angels, Kate becomes sexually involved with two very different men—a handsome and debauched member of the Thai aristocracy, and the charismatic, dominant proprietor of a sex bar. With Anand Rajchitraprasong, she discovers her own almost unlimited capacity for erotic pleasure. Meanwhile, Gregory Marshall shows her what she has hidden from herself: a deep desire to submit, to surrender herself body and soul to someone with the power and compassion to master her.

Each lascivious adventure binds her more closely to her lovers. Then David comes to Bangkok, and Kate realizes that she must choose one of the three men who all desire her.

Long considered an erotic classic, Raw Silk chronicles one woman’s intimate voyage toward love and self-understanding. This twenty-fifth anniversary edition has been freshly edited and includes a new introduction plus a bonus chapter.

Excerpt:

The room was small, but not cramped. Most of the floor area was occupied by a double bed with an ornate rattan headboard. A matching rattan armchair stood in a corner. Through the open window, high up on the wall, Kate heard the street sounds of Patpong, the vendors and the raucous music. Flashing neon painted patterns on the wall.

Kate felt paralyzed. She stood by the side of the bed, her heart pounding crazily, staring at her hands and feeling incongruous in her business clothes.

Gregory followed her into the room, closed the door, and relaxed into the armchair.

“Strip,” he ordered.

“What?” Kate looked at him, almost in panic.

“You heard me,” he said, his voice soft, rational, irresistible. “Strip for me.”

Not understanding, not believing what she was doing, she began to obey. Her fitted jacket was already unbuttoned. She slipped it off and let it fall to the floor. With one hand, she undid the buttons on her gray silk blouse. With the other, she unzipped her skirt.

Gregory sat motionless, his shining eyes following her every move.

She shrugged the blouse off her shoulders, and stepped out of the skirt. Her bra unhooked in front. Defiantly, she paused a moment before she unfastened it and dropped it onto the pile.

Her nipples were painfully hard. Her arousal would be obvious to Gregory. She felt confused, embarrassed, but oddly proud. Her nakedness was nothing to be ashamed of.

She began to remove her bikini briefs, her only remaining garment other than her heels.

“No, wait,” said Gregory. “Leave those on for the moment.” He rose from the chair and walked slowly around her, measuring, evaluating, making her feel as though she were some piece of merchandise he was considering for purchase. He towered over her, and he was very close, but still he did not touch her. Kate found herself looking at his hands, willing him to use them on her body, to no effect.
