<— Oh hey, THIS one is so good!! I really connected with it. It had a more mature contemporary romance feel, about a married couple (he is a professor and she was a student at his school), that face quite the marital discord when their plans for their future begin to differ… oooooh this one gets angsty, but on a calmer level. Hard to explain, but I think you guys will enjoy it!
And now there are TWO more books in the series (and both have been released!). No waiting! Here is my review of book #1.
And many of our fellow readers loved it, too!
Rosemarie: Loved this one! Love their story. Thanks again for another fantastic read!
Day: this book was great. the cliff hanger wasn’t to bad & it comes with a epilogue so you get to see a little more. it was very enjoyable I loved the proffessor. wasn’t to much angst & the just enough steam.
Melissa: Almost finished up with Allure by Nina Lane….sooo good.
Michelle: Just finished Allure, Nina Lane’s 2nd book in her Spiral of Bliss series. It was just as emotional, heart-breakingly real, and beautifully romantic as the first book, Arouse. I can’t wait for the 3rd book that’s supposed to come out this summer. Read these books!!!
Kandace: I’m going to start Awaken tonight. The girls said it was fantastic.
About book #1:
Struggling with a tormented past, undergraduate Olivia Winter once led a practical but isolated life. Then she met Professor Dean West, a brilliant scholar of medieval history who melted Liv’s inhibitions and taught her the meaning of both love and erotic pleasure. But after three years of a blissful, lusty marriage, Liv and Dean now face a crisis that threatens everything they believe about each other. And when dark secrets and temptations rise to the surface, the fallout might break them apart forever.
SERIES READING ORDER:

Yay Jeanie!!! I think I remember discussing book #1 with you way back when…

Awww yes, I remember! One of my very first posts to your blog! 🙂
One of the best series I’ve read!! They keep getting better and better with each book. My favorite was the last one 😀
Hands down, my favorite series! Dean and Liv <3
This is one of my ALL time favorite series that i recommend to everyone… Beautiful story that shows just how sexy marriage can be (; Professor Dean is my favorite non-tortured hero & he is HOT (and so are these books)
One of the most heart-felt and emotionally moving series I’ve read. It is certainly hot and sexy, but it also has a more mature and real life feel to it with themes I think most people can relate to. The development of the characters and their relationship over the three books is beautiful. Painfully beautiful at times, but beautiful none the less.
