What would you do if you were forced to come face-to-face
with the secret part of your soul you’ve kept hidden your entire life? Would
you expose that secret if it meant the possibility of living your greatest
fantasy?
Hospice nurse Courtney Wells expected to encounter a commanding personality
when she agreed to provide care for an old friend of the Romanian aristocrat,
Baron Marcas Kalnovky. Confident, self-controlled, and independent- very few
things could rattle her, that is until she meets the handsome and mysterious
man with silver-gray eyes and old world charm. The moment she hears his deep
rolling accent, her body quivers with a desire she can’t deny no matter how
hard she tries.
From the beginning, Marcas demands something the young American woman’s not
willing to give- submission. His desire for her takes him on a journey that
forces him to face himself in a way neither he, nor Courtney, anticipate.
What the pretty little nurse doesn’t know is that the baron’s voracious
appetite for ancient erotic art resulted in the unleashing of a dark curse. Not
only does he nearly lose his sight, but his soul is literally split in two.
By day, he's the same man he always was- controlled, calm, and commanding; but
at sunset, he tears in half and his two opposite sides war against one another.
The only thing they have in common is the beautiful, feisty woman who’s turned
their life around. Both sides not only want her, but they also need her… all of
her, in every way she can be taken... Together at night- which means they have
to find a way to get along.
When Marcas finally confesses the truth, Courtney’s both terrified and
intrigued. When she’s bound naked and helpless at the mercy of all of his
desires, she's shocked to find that she’s soon begging for both of him in every
manner imaginable.
When she discovers the pain Marcas endures to be with her; she’s determined to
find a way to help him. Little does she know that there’s more to curse than
his being forced to face himself every night—it wants a sacrifice. A terrifying
sacrifice that would cost Courtney’s life she’s compelled to come to terms with
her own hidden darkness.
Will her love be enough to break the curse and heal his wounded soul? What
about the cost? Would he ever forgive her if she succeeds in setting him free?
About the author:
BDSM/AP lifestyler Breanna Hayse strives to give her readers
truth and reality of the BDSM/Age-Play/Total Power and Erotic Exchange
lifestyle.
Who am I?
I'm a native Californian gone 'wild', and had the opportunity to travel the
globe and discover the world through the eyes of both a Marine Intelligence
specialist and a BDSM lifestyler. I left the service to go into hospice nursing
and grief counseling, eventually working as a marriage and family therapist for
those involved in alternative lifestyle development. This experience has allowed
me to gain unique inspiration for my books and offer realistic plots and
relatable characters.
In 2004, my husband, John, and I joined forces to work with both submissives
and dominants- teaching, training, listening and loving. Our goal was to take
the mystery and fear out of the lifestyle and mentor people in safe, consensual
and healthy relationships.
My first book, The Game Plan, was published in 2012 and opened the door to the
now-booming world of Age-Play literature. Since that time, I've devoted my
'spare' time to writing, researching, community involvement, and private and
group pro bono counseling in deviant behavior, alternative lifestyle, and
addiction recovery.
I was formally 'dungeon trained' as a Domme before discovering my submissive
side when I joined the service. My scenarios are pulled primarily from either
personal experience or observation, including spending time in BDSM clubs as
the safety/medical officer. My multi-faceted background allows me to glean from
many avenues and give a unique and intelligent literary experience through
elements of fantasy and fiction. I also discuss the questions and psychology of
the lifestyle in a manner that is fun and informative, and based on 'the real
deal.'
I live with my husband, musician, and fellow-author, John Hayse, and two border
collies in southern California. We practice a 24/7 D&S relationship with
speckles of AP (and many trips to Build-A-Bear), and happily spend every moment
together that we can. My hobbies include my puppies, hiding my vanilla
salt-water taffy where John can't find it, exotic art, collecting inspirational
trinkets, and developing my own paddle line. You can also see me as a featured
author/instructor in professional conference settings and as a Sexpert for
kinkyliterature.com.
