Summary: Very highly recommended
Review: SHAMELESS is the extraordinary novel by J. C. Wilder about a wounded woman's growth into power and beauty. Although SHAMELESS is the third part of a series, reading it without reading its predecessors isn't a problem. SHAMELESS creates a world of mystery and magnetism that mesmerizes the reader.

Eighteen years ago, a madman kidnapped, raped, and carved up model Erihn Spencer, leaving her for dead. While she physically survived her injuries, her emotional scarring surpassed her traumatic physical scarring. While Erihn could write passionate, best-selling romance novels, she had never allowed a man into her life.

During her birthday celebration at the Brew House all that changed when Fayne saw her. Recognizing the warrior woman buried beneath the baggy, concealing woman, her beauty and strength mesmerized Fayne. He boldly strolled to the stage where she was reading a poem, and kissed her. One perfect kiss. That single perfect kiss pulled her from the darkness into the light.

Ready for a rest to prepare for her next novel, Erihn goes to her customary retreat at her friend's home in the mountains. Only this year Jennifer didn't warn Erihn of the houseguest. As Erihn lounges in the hot tub, fantasizing over the "dark, predatory, dangerous" Fayne, he appears before her.

What follows is every woman's fantasy. As Fayne's love and desire nourish her newfound confidence, the word shameless becomes a badge to worn proudly. That is, until madmen, vampires and witches put in an appearance and threaten to destroy everything Erihn has gained.

SHAMELESS holds amazing depth as it explores the growing, shameless attraction between two lovers and the world of the preternatural. With extraordinary craft, Wilder builds a tale of suspense and romance that will leave the reader clamoring for more.
