ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date January 28, 2016

Pierre Levi fears that the hit and run which nearly killed him was the only thing capable of stopping his destructive behaviour. Now he’s torn between his desire for reconciliation with his brother, Gustav, and his attraction to Serena, Gustav’s girlfriend.

When Rosa Cavalieri, a nurse at the exclusive Aura Clinic, meets the traumatised Pierre Levi in room 202 she is determined to get him back on his feet.
She is rehabilitating her own broken heart too while he is distrustful of himself and everyone around him. When their playful teasing moves into fantasy, game-playing and genuine attraction, Rosa realises she is falling for Pierre.

But the recovery that Rosa has worked so hard to achieve for Pierre is also beginning to pull them apart. And if Pierre cannot see that Rosa’s talents make her the perfect match for him, he’ll lose her for good.

REVIEW: PIERRE is the sequel story line to Primula Bond’s contemporary, adult THE SILVER CHAIN erotic, romance trilogy. Leading man Pierre Levi is the younger and much troubled brother of Gustav Levi-the dark and dangerous hero from The Silver Chain trilogy, and Pierre is recovering from an horrific accident that has left him in a continuing care facility dependent upon others for all of his needs. Enter nursing aide/carer Rosa Cavalieri-the woman who will nurse Pierre back to health, and break down the barriers he has erected around his heart. PIERRE can be read as a stand alone but for cohesion, backstory, and the heartbreaking history between Gustav and Pierre, I recommend reading The Silver Chain trilogy before attempting Pierre.

Told from first person point of view (Rosa) PIERRE focuses on the rehabilitation of Pierre’s mind, body and soul following a near fatal accident that wasn’t an accident-at all. Pierre’s reputation in the world of entertainment, and his rocky relationship with his brother precedes his introduction to our leading heroine (and the clinic staff) but Rosa sees something behind the beautiful façade of the broken man, and she is willing to risk everything to help in become the man –he should have been.

PIERRE is a passionate and seductive story of romance with sexually graphic text and language, as well as some flirtation with F/F sexual scenarios. Gustav and Serena (The Silver Chain Series) play a small cameo role, as well as Serena’s best friend Polly who has a history with the younger Levi brother. The premise is a sensual and emotional tale about a man who believes he will never be good enough. The characters are exquisite, intense and consuming; the romance is impassioned- full of anguish, and full of hope. The sexual tension is palpable and energetic. Primula Bond turns a tragic character into a beloved man.
