Dissolve

by Jonathan Luckett

David Sands is a painter who has just moved into a spacious new loft -- he's readying his oils and brushes to begin a new work when he spies a beautiful woman in the window of the facing building. She is dancing sensuously, moving to a rhythm David can not hear. David watches her and is instantly mesmerized. Days later, after torturing him with her erotic moves, she comes to him, and they make passionate love. In the morning, however, she has disappeared. This mysterious woman has touched something deep within David's soul, and he vows to find her again. But what he finds shocks him. Nona, this elusive lady in the building facing his, died years ago at the hand of her abusive husband. Or did she? Is David on the brink of madness? He is dying to discover the truth, and what he finds just might kill him.

I FINALLY rediscovered this book after an incredible memory lapse. I happened upon it, and the storyline is outstanding. A wonderful little hidden treasure.

I was immediately caught in the story, though at the beginning I had a hard time with David Sands falling for this mysterious woman he spies through a window. When I read the back of the cover, I expected more of an intense mystery but found it more of a suspenseful emotional journey and erotic romance. Still I was captivated by the characters and truly wanted to know how things were going to end. As for my reservations regarding David falling so deeply for the woman so quickly; well let me put it this way, the ending answered all my questions and quashed all my doubts.
