Ellora's Cave | Moderne: Contemporary Erotic Romance

Description

***STAND ALONE NOVEL. NO CLIFFHANGER. HEA***

(Content Warning: due to graphic sex scenes, strong language, suggestive themes, mature humor, and just about everything your besties ever told you not to do–including getting vajazzled, this novel is for adults only.)

In the world of the fabulous rich, some will pay any price to maintain social status. What if it costs them the one thing they’ve always yearned for? Love.

At thirty-three, Warner Truman is one of the richest men on the planet, a spa mogul who buys and sells resorts at will. He holds powerful executives' careers in his well-groomed hands. Nothing is beyond Warner's reach...until he meets her.

Stunning, tantalizing and perverse, Taddy Brill captivates Warner's carnal desire like no woman he's ever met. A self-made millionaire, Taddy is tougher than steel, more brilliant than diamonds and, at twenty-seven, she's never depended on a man for anything...until she meets him.

The more Taddy plays with Warner's affections, driving him to erotic heights, the more she is confronted by a dark past. Before she can love him, Taddy must meet her worst fears head-on or risk losing it all, including herself.

THE MANHATTANITES is an extended modern erotic romance series of full length juicy melodramas multilayered on love, friendship, scandal, and drama to the hilt. If you grew up reading Jackie Collins and Judith Krantz you will devour this series. Sex & The City fans who watch TV shows like Girls (HBO), Mistresses (ABC/BBC Drama), and The Bold & the Beautiful (CBS) love The Manhattanites series. Avery's characters are over the top. They have raunchy sex, speak their minds and always get what they want.

Advance Praise

"Avery Aster literally writes highly erotic literature!" —Midwest Book Review

“This book blindsided me. The author's voice is fresh, witty, and completely hysterical…something not easily found in today's book market.” —Same Book, Different Review

“I took a long cold shower after reading Unscrupulous.” —Books Are Love

“There’s a new star in town. The name is Avery Aster. Unscrupulous is slick, juicy and narratively impressive.” —The Sleaze Factor

"Unscrupulous equates fun erotica. The humor runs toward the outrageous and raunchy but never tasteless. This is like Sex and City on steroids but younger and actually sexier." —Ever After Romance Book Blog

“The Manhattanites is a throwback to Judith Krantz. It's filled with family drama, salacious back stories, rich people problems and the glitz and glamour of fame without turning into a saga of revenge and disappointment.” —Talk Supe Reviews

“I could relate to the main characters. The emotions they went through felt real to me. If you are open minded and looking for something…hot then these books are for you. Avery Aster had me hooked, interested and connected to the characters.” —Bec’s Books

“While classified as an erotic novel it is so much more than that. Unscrupulous is a love story between friends and more importantly is a story of a woman learning to truly love herself!” —Tiffany Talks Books

“I learned so many new things while reading Unscrupulous like what DILF stood for, and about the Vajazzle. Avery's writing style is refreshing and so different from what's out there.” —Book Babes Unite

“Unscrupulous reminds me a lot of Jackie Collins' style of plot lines, intrigue and drama. The bitches are super-bitches and the heroine has a good heart underneath the tough exterior. When Taddy finally started to open up to Warner it actually made me tear up.” —I Love Romantic Fiction

“The female characters are all strong and that’s a refreshing change from some of the heroines I’ve read lately in other books.” —Erotic Book Club

“I love the way Avery Aster wrote Taddy’s character. You will love her even more when you peel back all of those layers. Unscrupulous is a deep and emotional book.” —Reading Renee

“Unscrupulous hooked me at page one. The crazy characters are positively perfect. Each holds their own and deserves their place. Aster’s story is fast-paced, hot and had me laughing out loud! The Manhattanites live a ridiculously extravagant lifestyle and I so wanted to be a part of it.” —Blissful Books

“The shock value early in the book is high and is suited to the open-minded reader, not shy or afraid of sexually descriptive language and scenes. Unscrupulous is hot flash-inducing...trust me, I've suffered a few.” —Ripe For Reader

“Unscrupulous is a wild read filled with rich, dirty mouthed New Yorkers and it is just a lot of fun.”—A Lust for Reading
