Braden
by Allyson James

Braden, a level-three Shareem, never thought he’d find anything interesting in a library, of all places. That is, until he spies Elisa n’Arell sitting behind a reference desk. She’s lovely, polite, and uses cute words like “mustn’t.”

The trouble is, the pretty librarian is a registered celibate, off-limits, forbidden, especially for the nearly outlawed Shareem. The second problem is, Braden has come into the library to research the problem of getting Shareem off the planet, an activity that could get him arrested and all Shareem killed. He needs the librarian’s help to get into restricted databases, but he can’t tell her why.

Elisa knows good and well that her motives for taking the robes of a celibate were less than pure. When Braden walks into her library, he takes her breath away. He tempts her to put aside her vows for a time and find out what she’s sacrificing. At the same time she’s determined to discover why Braden tricked her into giving him clearance for restricted information, and then was so bent on giving her presents in return.

Elisa asks Braden to teach her, and enters a world of heat and passion she’d never known existed. Too late, Elisa finds that forbidden fruit tastes the best of all…

Allyson James' Bio

Allyson James is a psuedonym of romance writer Jennifer Ashley. Allyson dreamed of being a published writer since the age of eight, writing love stories before she knew what romances were. She wrote fantasy and science fiction while in college, and after obtaining her master's degree and a job in the real world. she decided to stop dreaming and try to be a full-time published author.

She published the first short story she ever submitted in Marion Zimmer Bradley's Fantasy Magazine, which gave her the false illusion that getting published was easy. After many more submissions and rejections, she sold her first novel to Dorchester in 2002, and made her second sale to Berkley with a series of historical mysteries. She continues to write for Dorchester under the name Jennifer Ashley.

Deciding to take up the challenge of writing erotic romance, Allyson submitted Tales of the Shareem: Rees to Ellora's Cave, and discovered she liked writing hotter, more graphic romances. She continues to write both scorching romances for Ellora's Cave and more mainstream (but still hot) romances for Dorchester.

Allyson lives with her soul mate, an avid reader himself, in the sunny southwest in a houseful of books. Allyson welcomes mail from readers. Write to her at [email protected].
