The Scarlet Shackle
by Diana Laurence

Julia, an intelligent and cultured young woman, has been captured by the enemy and sold as a pleasure slave. Her new master is not what she expects--nor are the emotions he inspires in her. His ambivalent behavior--tenderness and punishment--confuse Julia. All she knows is that she wants him in spite of herself.

Diana Laurence's Bio

I write romantic erotica with a very specific goal in mind: to show how sex can possess a purity, a cleanness, a truly spiritual beauty. I believe that through such fiction, the reader can beneficially explore the deeper archetypal and spiritual elements of sex. The power of sex in literature is derived from the personalities it engages; it is the union of souls, the commingling of distinct personalities, which provides us a better understanding of the purpose and value and beauty of sex. Through my stories, I try to find new ways to tap into the innocent, pure, spiritual source of joy that sex can be.
