Caught Between Duty and Love…

Seth Natani is one of the DEA’s best operatives thanks to his “found” abilities, but he’s hanging on by a thread. It is thoughts of the love of his life keep him sane. In the meantime he finds solace in his dreams.

Clinging to Hope…

Parted from the man that means everything to her, Annie desperately holds onto the past that they shared, and prays for the day they can be reunited. In the meantime she finds solace in her dreams.

Where Dreams Are Real...

Night after night Seth and Annie cling to one another in their dreams, finding a passion that leaves them gloriously fulfilled in sleep, but achingly lonely upon waking. Just when Seth thinks his assignment is ending, it takes a turn for the worse when he finds out the people he is investigating are trafficking in young women. When Annie is taken, will Seth be able to save the woman he loves and make their dreams reality?

“Do you understand me? Do you understand exactly what I need? What I am asking?”

She did, and she would willingly give him anything to erase the agony she saw in his face. “I freely offer you my body.” The lines around his mouth eased a little, and then he frowned.

“Baby, tonight I need more.”

“Oh Seth,” Annie stroked his cheek, loving that she could finally touch him outside of those moments of release. “Whatever you want, whatever you need, it’s yours. I’m yours.”

“Put your hands over your head and hold your wrist in one hand.” When she complied she understood why he would want the position, because it arched her back and raised her breasts.

He pulled her legs apart and made a place for himself, his jutting cock resting against her slick folds. She pushed her knees against the mattress so her sex parted a little more bringing his hot flesh against her moist heat. It was sublime.

“No. You don’t move until I say tell you.” She stopped, and looked into glittering black eyes. He must have read her intention to thrust upwards. 

He gently palmed both of her breasts and thumbed her nipples, back and forth scraping his calloused thumbs over her delicate nubs, causing her to whimper. “It’s too much.”

“You can take more, baby.” He rubbed harder and faster. Her nipples had always been sensitive, and he knew it. But it was as if he was taking her past the point of pain to a world of pure sensation. Rivers of heat were flowing from her nipples to her clit and back up again, her juices flowed, she tried to push her hips up, but he pressed her body down into the bed without giving her the friction she needed.

“Seth,” she wailed quietly. Even in her dreams she knew to be quiet.

He looked down at the hard red tips and stopped. “Look at how pretty and swollen you are.” He swooped down and sucked one pebbled nub into his mouth and she let out a low keen, grabbing the back of his head, pulling his long hair. She didn’t remember his hair being so long. When did he get long hair? Why was she dreaming of Seth with long hair?

“Hands over your head.” He lifted his hips and looked down at her with a wild look in his eyes. Who was this man? Never had Seth been so commanding, and why was she even more on fire for him? She immediately obeyed him, and he rewarded her by grinding against her needy clit.

“Please, I’m begging you.”

“My way.” He dipped his head back down, and sucked her other distended nipple into his mouth, tonguing it towards the roof of his mouth. He kept the rocking motion of his hips against her core, until she was close to coming.

“Yes, oh God, yes Seth.” And then he stopped. Once again she grabbed his hair and yanked him back. He reared back and roared. “Annie, do as I say!” She trembled at the power in his voice and immediately complied melting into the bed, her desire spiking even higher.

His arms wrapped around her, pulling her up against his hot chest, molding them into one person and his lips pressed against hers, his taste something long denied but never forgotten. He plunged his tongue into her mouth, thrusting and stroking her ever upwards into a blazing need. Then he ripped his head away, and started a path of kisses and nips along her jaw. He licked at the pulse of her neck and bit down, and even more of her juices leaked onto his erection. He was sliding easier and easier against the parted folds of her labia.

Continuing his path downwards, he lightly brushed her stinging nipples, but she still arched upwards into the beautifully painful caress. He nipped at her concave tummy, and then swirled his tongue into her belly button. He licked over her smoothly shaved mound.

“You’re still bare for me.”

“You liked for me to do that. It makes me feel like one day we could be together.”

“My deepest wish is to be together again, but this is only a dream.” Tears pricked her eyes. She didn’t want honesty from her dream lover. She wanted to revel in pleasure, in the need they had for one another.

“Don’t talk about the future or the past, I want to concentrate on the here and now. I’ve needed you so much.” Then what little breath she had he took from her, as his thumbs parted the petals of her sex, and his tongue traced the valley from her opening to her bud and then swirled around until she couldn’t talk, couldn’t move, couldn’t think.

How was it possible she felt every tiny detail of their lovemaking this time? Every nuance was magnified, and then he slid his thick fingers into her hot tight core and they groaned as one person. Ever so lightly he took her clit between his teeth and laved it with his tongue, pressing in and out with his fingers. 

“So close.”

“No. I’m in charge,” he said, lifting his head and looking at her through hooded eyes. “You will hold on until I’m inside you.” He bent back down, and continued to raise her up. Her body shook with hunger, and she panted for air.

“P-P-Pl-Please stop. I can’t hold on.”

He lifted up again. “You can hold on. You will do as I say. You gave your word.” He continued for long minutes, adding a third finger and twisting, layering sensation on top of sensation. 

“Seth.” The shivering wouldn’t stop. So very close. He pulled back at the very second when she would have gone over. She watched as he licked every drop of her honey off his fingers, lingering and savoring.

“Annie, you were, are and always will be the best thing in my life.” He seemed so real, she had to tell him about Nell, and then he was covering her. Surging inside, and every thought splintered. Her mind shattered with pleasure, she couldn’t hold back her cries of rapture, his name a benediction on her lips. Then he was gone.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I was already invested in this story because the characters are first introduced in book one. You simply must read Revealed prior to starting Forsaken in order to understand what is happening in the story. Seth and Annie's relationship seems to have ended before it really got a chance to begin, and I'll admit that I was not Seth's biggest fan at first. The love they have for each other is weighed down by the pain of secrets, distance and lack of communication.

The story of the "found" picks up right where it left off at the end of Revealed and continues to develop alongside Seth and Annie's romance.  The quality of writing makes it easy to grasp the integral part that each character plays as the drama unfolds. The story line twists and turns, taking readers on an adventurous ride from beginning to end.  I thoroughly enjoyed book one and Forsaken exceeded my already high expectations!

Revealed (Book 1)

Caitlyn O’Leary was raised in a small town in the Pacific Northwest. She has always been an avid reader. Her earliest creative writing endeavors consisted of “ghost writing” exercises where she pretended to be her younger brothers and sister when she did their homework assignments.

Years in corporate America honed her ability to manipulate words by day and at night she read everything she could get her hands on, including many steamy romances.

Now happily married to her long, tall Texan and living in Southern California, Caitlyn has finally found the time to write erotic happily ever afters. She enjoys swimming, traveling, babysitting for her nieces and nephews, spending time with friends and family, and doing lots of “research” with her husband for upcoming novels.
