Story Behind The Book

Whips. Blindfolds. Restraints. And a man rumored to be the most skilled Dom in the city... As the BDSM instructor at the hottest fetish club in Los Angeles, Bianca Alexander prides herself on being open, honest, and informative with her clientele when it comes to kink. The fact that she hasn’t knelt before a master of her own in four long years doesn’t affect her ability to teach, though a part of her longs to be back in her Dom's arms. But when her boss hires Cade Sinclair--her primary rival from a competing club--to assist teaching her classes, Bianca’s comfortable solo act becomes a sinful duet drenched in Pure Sin.

The interaction between Bianca and Cade was engaging. The kind of banter that makes you get angry at them both and refuse to talk to them until they come to their senses. Bianca and her refusal to trust her heart and Cade just assuming that everything would fall into place because he is Cade Sinclair. The sex they had had me thinking, &quot;Hmmmm ... I wonder...&quot;. Ms. Raines did what most authors strive to do; grab the reader by the collar and make them want to continue turning the pages and tell those around them, &quot;One more page. One more page.&quot; <br /><br /></font><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;font-size:12pt;" lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us"><strong>5 Cherries from Whipped Cream Reviews-Reviewed by Mistletoe<br /></strong>&quot;Rynne Raines writes a wonderful story with many ups and downs. <em>Pure Sin</em> is a fast-paced story that keeps the reader glued to the pages from the beginning. Cade and Bianca’s relationship is a very erotic read. With very strong elements of BDSM behavior in it this story is a hot read. This author does a good job of giving a glimpse into understanding the needs of Bianca and Cade and the depth of their emotions. I truly enjoyed this book and will be looking for more from Rynne Raines in the future.&quot;<br /><br /><strong>The Romance Studio-Reviewed by Shannon<br /></strong><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Tahoma, 'sans-serif';font-size:15px;"><font face="Times New Roman">The plot was simple but with some twist thrown in to keep you on your toes. Ms. Raines did a good job of keeping it uncomplicated but interesting. The pace of the story was not too slow or fast with the appropriate amount of sensual scenes for its genre. The sensual scenes were very graphic and intense. This story is not for the faint of heart or imagination. This is the second story in a series by Ms. Raines. If this is the standard of the series, I will definitely have to pick up the other novel as soon as possible. </font></span></span></span></p><p></p><p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;" class="MsoNoSpacing"></p><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';"></span><font size="3"></font>
