"Wickedly Romantic Vampire Tale"

Aerin Peters is forty-seven years old, overweight, dependent on glasses, and a virgin. Her life is an unchanging, unemotional morass that centers on her isolating job as a typesetter at a small printer.

The ad says "Fetish".

It's her Grand Adventure, a night spent at an exclusive resort that caters to a client's every need — a night spent in the arms of a man who, even though he's paid to do it, will fulfill her every desire. A man who will worship her.

His name is Violanti.

Mysterious, stunningly attractive, he purrs his way into her arms. His sensual, decadent devotion will change her life forever — whether she wants it to or not!

Violanti is a vampire....

FETISH is a heated erotic look into one woman's journey from virgin to sensualist. Violanti is a delectable hero, all sexual heat and delicious speech — a perfect match to Aerin's at-first timid personality. His careful slow seduction is described in loving detail. Ms. King's love scenes are powerful and riveting. The blood-related scenes (this is a vampire romance, after all!) are devastatingly erotic. The romance is subdued, almost a background thought to the sexual relationship between Aerin and Violanti, but grows vibrant as the book winds to a close. While not your typical vampire romance, Ms. King employs some standard vampire conventions, twists a bit, and comes up with a wild, sexy ride that any vampire romance aficionado should be sure to look up.

Sensuality Level: This novel has been rated "E-rotic" by the publisher.

Summary

Within the walls of a high-class hedonists club, mousy Aerin Peters will find her sexual identity amidst the confusion of her mid-life crisis...

But all is not as it would seem within the walls of club Fetish. As Aerin grows closer to her fiendishly provocative escort, Violanti D'Arco, the dangers of her weekend retreats at the club become more apparent to her. She is haunted by her strange new friend and by Fetish itself. Unexplained memory lapses, an ever-growing addiction to Violanti's touch, and tales of frightening sexual deviances will drive Aerin to investigate the enigmatic mystery of Fetish and it's unseen owner...

Aerin's love, her heart, her very life may depend upon these answers. Because at Fetish, nothing is taboo.
