"Taken Unaware" by Sascha Illyvich

 

Sascha and I are personal acquaintances on Twitter. And as he is trying to push another book onto me, I decided to look him up on Amazon.com and see what exactly he had out there that just might tantalize my taste buds. I read the summary on each book, and when I found this one, I knew it was for me. I fell in love immediately with the description. so I bought it, as well as the other book, that he wants me to review. 

Naturally I read this one first, in forty minutes I might add. I couldn't put the darn thing down. And trust me, I had full intentions of doing so, because I was laying in bed, tired and ready to go to sleep. My husband beside me snoring, here I am reading. 

Big mistake. Its a seductive book. Her name is Dee. What is my nickname? Yeah, you got it. She waiting on her husband; well after she went to the store, anyway. Goes into take a bath because shes sweaty hot, remembering her home town of Hawaii, missing the clear waters, that she could just bask in and dive right into when she had gotten too hot. So she climbs into her tub to relax. 

Rory, her husband won't be home for a while. After laying there for a bit, she lathers her hair, stands to rinse off the suds, and from behind her someone comes in, and he wont allow her to see him. He promises not to rape her, but to be her gentle lover. 

She is in fear at first, but he whispers in her ear, and low and behold her body doesn't cooperate with the desire to fight him away. She doesn't understand because, she considers everything about sex dirty, something that has caused her and Rory problems all through their marriage.

The sexy sounding stranger promises only to be gentle and to be her lover, tells her how beautiful she is, and how he has longed for her. 

This whole time while reading, I personally was in fear of the husband coming home and finding this stranger there and ruining her marriage. But no, the very best part of the book, is at the end. I was so pleased with the ending. I smiled, and was totally impressed.

The book is not what you think. Trust me, you too, will be impressed, as well as your sexual impulses will be aroused. This book is everything I dreamed it would be and more! I give this book five stars and more and if I could! I adored this book, and suggest that you, those that like to read adult erotica, go out and buy this book immediately! It is amazing!

Here are my Interview Questions for Sascha:

 

1. What made you decide to write a book about a seductive man, that's not actually a rapist, that wants to be a lover?

This is actually a story my publisher had asked me to write.  If memory serves, the cover was created for an author who backed out and Jean Marie had asked if I could bang out a story with this premise.  I told her, yeah give me a week and a bottle of whiskey.  Both were given to me and it was done first draft in like three days.  I took a day to rest, then edited it. 

2. What made you decide to make this character be "Sascha?" & does this mean, she's reading one of your books and it makes her horny, and this is how it plays out?

I think this was a case of my own ego inserting itself into the story LOL!  Yes of course she's reading one of my books!

3. How did the idea of this book come to you?

Given the premise to write a story about a woman who is seduced by a stranger is an easy one, overdone to the point that it's played out.  But my twist isn't a usual one and I thought, what the hell.  I created this prudish woman, gave her a reason to like and enjoy love making in all its dirty forms, and then thought, what would the twist be?

4. What are you currently working on?

Promotions for ENDANGERED, out soon from Red Sage.  Promotions for Fall Into Love, out soon from Secret Cravings Publishing.  As for projects, I'm currently planning the 5^th Opeth Pack book, and doing a major rewrite on the second Nights of Lust book (Sequel to ENDANGERED) for Red Sage. 

Endangered:

Endangered is the story of a trio finding comfort in the love they develop for each other even as the world tries to break them. 

Fall Into Love: Can we avoid a fate set in motion since before birth or can we change our destiny?  Unity through love is the key to Paradise and only a select group of wolves and their mates can open the way for the other wolves on Earth.

5. How long have you been writing?

15 years and then some. 

6. What all education and training and skills do you have?

Nothing related to writing.  My background is in I.T., I'm a former Tech GOD, but I gave that godhead to my brother.  Real fiction writers don't go to school to write, that saps creativity with nonsensical rules that confuse the crap out of the writer and stifle their creativity.  Now I have spent a great deal of online time in my earlier days talking to my mentor about Craft and storytelling.

7. What all parts of the World have you seen?

I haven't seen your bedroom yet…

8. Have you or are you on a book tour?

I will be but it won't be the expected usual haunts most authors hit up.  Those are useless to me.  Look for me through my passions outside writing!

9. Who is your publicist?

Deborah Riley Magnus is someone I'm proud to call a lot of things, including publicist.
