4.5 Stars. I cannot express how much I craved reading this one. Granted, it's erotica, but the characters pulled me in. Myrna is emotionally unavailable and Brian Sinclaire is looking for someone to accept him, cherish him, not cheat on him. He never knew how hard he'd have to fight to find what he was looking for. He is a romantic with a kinky twist. He made me swoon and squirm at the same time. Myrna is an open minded person, so she believes--just her head builds walls around her heart, making it difficult to see beyond her past baggage. There are always strings, she learns--strings to bind, to break, to twist and hold you still and strings that attatch your heart to another.
