Book Description
"One
day I'm going to touch you in a thousand different ways and show you how to
touch me," he said.
And
he did.
Struggling
with a tormented past, undergraduate Olivia Winter once led a practical but
isolated life. Then she met Professor Dean West, a brilliant scholar of
medieval history who melted Liv's inhibitions and taught her the meaning of
both love and erotic pleasure. But after three years of a blissful, lusty
marriage, Liv and Dean now face a crisis that threatens everything they believe
about each other...and sex might not be enough to save them.
Jenn's Review
The
only man you’ve ever loved, the only man you’ve ever given yourself to is
slowly slipping through your fingers.
The
love of your life, the only woman you’d lay down your life for, she always said
you are her knight in shining armor and you are beginning to feel as though she
doesn’t need you anymore.
Arouse
is the incredible story of Olivia and Dean and the early years of their
relationship and marriage. Arouse could
also be about your neighbor or even yourself and that’s just one of the many
things I loved about this story. It could ring true for anyone.
Olivia
and Dean allowed secrets and half truths to drive a wedge between them and that
wedge was so deep they quit talking to each other and began talking of going
their separate ways.
I love him
to my bones, but suddenly I’m wondering what I might have been without him.
“Liv,” he
said, his voice rough with tenderness, “you don’t have to be afraid.”
“Why not?”
“Because I’ll
slay the monsters for you.”
Their
passion was raw and beautiful and their love was strong. She gave all she had
to him and he helped her to heal. Olivia finds out Dean didn’t give all he had
to her. But he had his reasons. And Olivia has a hard time dealing with that.
What is it going to take for them to be reminded of what they have and what
they mean to each other?
Nina
has written a beautiful story. I felt their pain through her words; I fell in
love with them as they fell in love with each other. I cannot wait for you to
read this story! And I hope you take from it what I did! I give Arouse a huge,
heartfelt 5 stars!!!
