Finding one's true self

THE FOREIGNER'S CARESS is the story of Madison Daniels, sister of Kennedy Daniels, whose story readers will remember from Kim Shaw's novel, Soul Caress. Madison was the party girl who had a penchant for getting into relationships with men who were unavailable. Her antics landed her on the front pages of many a magazine and newspaper, further embarrassing her parents. However, after her sister's brush with death, Madison decided to take stock of her life and find her true self. With this new outlook, she vowed to steer clear of romantic relationships; however, that wasn't meant to be when she met Stevenson Elliott. Stevenson Elliott is the heir to his father's billion dollar business. This young Englishman is enraptured by Madison's beauty, intelligence and strength. He is also willing to go against the wishes of his parents to pursue a lasting relationship with Madison. Things seem to be going well until Stevenson must return to England and there the relationship between the two begins to fizzle, but their love for each other remains steadfast. When Stevenson uncovers some truths about his family and decides to take a stand against their meddling, will it be too little, too late for him and Madison? THE FOREIGNER'S CARESS has the same fluidity of Soul Caress with likeable and believable characters. Shaw's ability to put the reader in whatever city or country she is describing allows readers to become one with the story. She keeps the intrigue going throughout the book, but she allows the hero and heroine to have weaknesses they must overcome. The bonus was the sizzling romantic scenes invoking sensual thoughts. This story stands alone and remains true to the romance genre. Reviewed by Cashana Seals of The RAWSISTAZ(tm) Reviewers

The Foreigner's Caress

Madison Daniels was a party girl in the past and is trying to get her life back on track. The tabloid's do not want to let her past rest though. She meets a very handsome and wealthy man named Stevenson Elliott who is captivated by her beauty and honest attitude. Because of past relationships when she was a party girl, she doesn't trust anyone especially men easily. He pursues her because of her honesty and courage and falls in love with her. His well to do family do not accept her because of her past and do everything they can including disowning him to see things their way including marrying a woman they feel is more worthy of him and it will also look good for his Father's business. After all the drama and after breaking Madison's heart to please his family, things come to light about his Father's past that opens his eyes to his Father's manipulation and deceit. I won't be a spoiler and tell the whole story but this is a great story. Kudo's to Kim Shaw for writing such a great story.
