The Concubine's Tale

Separated in time. United by forbidden passion…When an ancient papyrus scroll comes up for auction, gallery curator Cait Lang draws the distasteful task of notifying her boss's favorite client, Grant Pierson. The rare art and antiquities collector's arrogance grates on her nerves, but most of all she resents her own weakness for his athletic body and deep brown eyes. It's the hieroglyphic scroll that draws Grant to a private, after-hours showing at the gallery. But the lovely Cait's narration of the erotically charged story captures his interest. Determined to hear the rest of the tale-and spend more time in Cait's company-he convinces her to join him for dinner. The intricate, sensual tale transports Cait's and Grant's imaginations into the past. And the depictions of sexually charged temple rituals inspire them to explore their own hidden passions-in Grant's apartment. Even as Grant succumbs to Cait's charms, the drive to own the scroll hums in the back of his mind. If he isn't careful, though, he'll not only lose the chance to hear the end of the story, he'll lose something more precious. The missing piece of his own life-Cait.
