Carnal Beginnings Review






Carnal Beginnings

By Reily Garrett 


Adara’s enigmatic and sexy boss asks her a simple question. “How are you going to celebrate your twenty-first birthday?” Sounds innocent enough, until he suggests she go to Ambrosia, the infamous BDSM club. To volunteer for scars and bruises is not on her to-do list. Yet when Julien invades her personal space, her body goes into panic mode and fails to respond appropriately. Since her adoptive parents died six years ago, she’s endured horrific tortures at the hands of her sadistic and perverted uncle and cousin. 



Her long-awaited birthday, and inheritance, are days away. She longs for and plans to escape. 



Julien Crofton is an ex-Special Forces private investigator. Since hiring Adara six months ago, her subtle signs of ongoing abuse have tied him in knots. And not the good kind. Time and again, he’s encouraged her to open up and talk to him. After disastrous results in a previous case where a client refused his help, he’s determined history won’t repeat itself. Surely he could help her and keep his heart intact. The fact she’s as beautiful as sin should have no bearing on his intent to teach her to not fear men. When he resorts to an underhanded tactic to crack her invisible suit of armor, he’s unprepared for the tidal wave of lust and protectiveness that swamps him. 


Even while evading her family and an unknown psychopathic stalker, passion ignites. In progressive increments, Julien kindles her spark of infatuation into a raging inferno. Can Adara learn that perhaps not all men are evil and maybe…whips can be fun? 

WARNING: This book is not suitable for a younger audience.

***MY HONEST REVIEW OF CARNAL BEGINNINGS***

Julien knows the telltale signs of abuse, and he sees them all in Adara, his assistant. He didn’t know that Adara had taken this job at his private investigation firm to learn all she could about disappearing forever. Being tortured for the last 6 years by her uncle and his son, all she cared about was gaining her freedom. When Julien witnesses one of Adara’s former co-workers physically harassing her, he decides to take her under his wing and desensitize her in order to overcome her demons and live freely. But can he fully protect her from her family when he has his own demons to overcome.

Normally erotica is not my genre, but the plot of this story really drew me in. With such interesting characters, I couldn’t help but like it. Since I’m not very experienced in the subject, I felt like I was learning along with Adara. It’s hard to imagine such cruel people, but when faced with it, it’s pure pleasure in getting revenge.
