Description

<p>Richard II found himself under siege not once, but twice in his minority. Crowned king at age ten, he was only fourteen when the Peasants' Revolt terrorized London. But he proved himself every bit the Plantagenet successor, facing Wat Tyler and the rebels when all seemed lost. Alas, his triumph was short-lived, and for the next ten years he struggled to assert himself against his uncles and increasingly hostile nobles. Just like in the days of his great-grandfather Edward II, vengeful magnates strove to separate him from his friends and advisors, and even threatened to depose him if he refused to do their bidding. The Lords Appellant, as they came to be known, purged the royal household with the help of the Merciless Parliament. They murdered his closest allies, leaving the King alone and defenseless. He would never forget his humiliation at the hands of his subjects. Richard's inability to protect his adherents would haunt him for the rest of his life, and he vowed that next time, retribution would be his.</p>

&quot;Temptation to Sin&quot; is a very erotic, very sexual, and romantic book. Shannon is living with Jayden. She has been for ten years but for eight of those years it has been a platonic relationship. She is beginning to think something is missing in her life and makes a date with Greg but not finding a spark, she dumps him. She has decided there must be a strong erotic feeling if she is going to have an affair and she finds this with Brent. She is keeping it a secret from Jayden and her female friends. But in the meantime it transpires that Brent is a friend of Greg's and acting on Greg's behalf, just trying to pay back Shannon while not realizing there is more to the story. Things get quite intense as it needs to be clearer what is what.<br /><br /> Even though the book is quite erotic and sexual, it has a very strong romantic story. The erotic scenes are very real and quite earth shaking. Shannon goes from tolerating a platonic relationship to an all out no holds bared sexual relationship. What starts as a sexual encounter turns into a romantic relationship as they each begin to feel love for each other but other situations become a barrier. There are Greg and Jayden to contend with and both Brent and Shannon are strong willed and neither wants to submit to the will of the other. This is a tantalizing tale that will keep you turning the pages!
