Managing Director of her own successful fashion house, Lauren Chandler should have everything going for her. But at twenty-nine, she finds herself single again, and bored. Seeking a new challenge in her life, under the guise of saving her company money, Lauren embarks on a mission to model their latest range of lingerie herself. She just needs a photographer. When a certain Byron Lord makes an unusual proposal, Lauren is adamant he won’t win the contract, but she’s about to get far more than she bargained for…
Throwing herself into the world of filmmaking, Lauren also becomes embroiled in a world of abuse and guilt. Is it too much for a Guiltless pact to overcome?
Guiltless is part of the series of books by Mollie Blake - A Cheshire Love Story. These novels are full of adult-themed romance intertwined with danger. As paths cross, you’ll discover familiar faces, all seeking love and happiness, and willing to pay the price.
Mollie Blake hits all the right buttons once again with her newest Cheshire Love Story! It’s a potent cocktail of glamorous people having hot and heavy encounters with a few “too hot to handle” shocks along the way. Irresistible! I loved it!
Powerful Lauren has designed her own lingerie line and she decides she wants to be the model for it. She requires a photographer. Byron Lord responds to the request and Lauren's life changes. An erotic love story with a difference, that is an easy read. On a personal note, I didnt like the odd American spellings; as the book is set in England I can't understand why it can't be English spellings.
Loved loved loved this!! The story was fast paced and raunchy. It's not just all sex though, the characters are all well rounded and you really care about them. The ending was just perfect and left me wanting to know more about what happens next. I'll definitely read more of Mollies books.
Guiltless by Mollie Blake "A Cheshire Love Story" This is the 2nd book I have read of Mollie Black. She is a phenomenal author and her books tell great details along with erotic stories. There are details but there is a wonderful story behind these books and they are sure to strike a chord with quite a few readers. In this story, Lauren Chandler should be feeling on top of the world for what she has already accomplished at the age of 29, however she finds herself single so with time on her hands and curiosity she wants to model the lingerie that she has designed. Plus it saves the company money. She searches to find a perfect photographer. The co-owner of Broadway Studios, Byron Lord is determined to find job security for his workforce. Now he is a film maker and a photographer. The other owner of the studio is his sister Ron, (Veronica). When the contract comes in Lauren passed it to legal. When she was looking over the contract, she received a phone call from her mother. Telling Lauren that her grandmother had passed away. She hurriedly grabbed the contract, she did not see a small single piece of paper that was along with the contract. When Lauren started working with Byron for the photo shoot he started talking about more. Lauren had not read the full contract and so she was not sure what film he was talking about. Will allow you to get the rest of the story from the book. This is a book that was informative and at times very hard to put down. I hope you will give it a try and do enjoy it. It This is a book that was informative and at times very hard to put down. It does include some hot and heavy encounters.
Warning this book contains lots of hot and steamy scenes. Do not read if easily offended. Having read another one of Mollie’s Blake’s Cheshire Love Stories (The Secret of Arnford Hall, which I enjoyed) I thought I knew what to expect. However Mollie has definitely upped the stakes a little in this latest book. It was well written and I loved the characters, although I warmed to Lauren a little more than Bryon and actually preferred Travis as a leading man, I found the personalities believable and interesting. The boundaries of relationships are pushed ever further with the exploration of an alternative lifestyle. I have to admit I was a little put off at first with the choice of lifestyle explored in this book (it isn’t a lifestyle I’m comfortable with) but after all, any good fiction, whatever genre, is about pushing boundaries and exploring a fantasy life you would not normally live yourself. With that in mind and the fact that the back story intrigued me (and of course, comfortable or not with the morals, the steamy scenes were still very hot) I stuck with it. I am glad I did. I really enjoyed the story and the transition of both main characters to a place they were happy with. I also liked that the novel touched on some difficult social problems, domestic violence to women, misuse of migrant workers, youth offender rehabilitation and disability. These issues were tackled with compassion and a clear message of unacceptability where required. Above all it managed to keep my interest despite any uncomfortable moments which speaks volumes. I will read another by this author and I would love to read Travis’s story.
I received a review copy of this book from the author through Voracious Readers. This is the first book I have read by this author but it won’t be the last! I have read my share of erotic romance, but I have to say this was one of the best steamy reads I have read so far! The sex scenes were hot, hot, hot! And I actually found myself blushing - a lot - as I read this book. This book is definitely not for the faint of heart nor for those easily offended by explicit sex. But this book is not just about the sex. What I also enjoyed about this book is that it truly is a love story - about two individuals and how they change each other’s lives. And it’s not just about Lauren and Byron. The story contains many flawed and broken people, some more than others, who manage to figure out a way to move forward, discover what they want and even make their lives better. The story touches on subjects like dysfunctional families, child and adult abuse and sex-trafficking and the author handles them all realistically but with great sensitivity. The author’s characters are all well rounded, believable and likeable and I found myself rooting for each of them throughout the book. This book has it all - steamy sex, gentle romance, a bit of mystery and plenty of action - both in and out of the bedroom. A fantastic story!
This is a story with a lot happening in it, in and out of the bedroom yes it is steamy and erotic and I would suggest keeping a fan close by while reading but it will keep you turning the pages.
Lauren Chandler is a strong business woman who runs a lingerie company and has just broken up with her boyfriend and she is feeling a little lost she needs something more something to bring some excitement back into her life and maybe modelling her garments for a photographer might be just the thing. So the search begins for a photographer and maybe she has found him in Byron Lord because their first meeting sends the sparks flying.
Byron is a gifted photographer and he has somethings in his past that he keeps to himself but he also has something on the agenda and working for Lauren Chandler may just what he needs to keep his company going and add some spice to his already sizzling life.
Lauren and Byron have a lot of hurdles to cross before they get to their HEA be warned there are steamy explicit sex scenes in this story but the action not only in the bedroom but out of it will keep you wanting to know what is happening and getting to know the characters that all add to this story.
Mollie Blake’s, Guiltless, is more than just an erotic love story. It’s a novel with multi dimensional characters, real life challenges, a titillating subplot and a brave sexual boldness to explore fantasies that general romance doesn’t fulfill.
Byron Lord is scarred from a life of abuse and an unfortunate accident that manifests itself in an OCD habit and an unusual venture to help other troubled souls.
Byron’s unconventional proposal is unexpectedly accepted by Lauren, a beautiful woman who owns a successful lingerie company. Her busy life lands her in a predicament when she doesn’t read the fine print in a water tight contract. Willing to do anything to snare a night alone with the alluring, evasive man, who holds her to the ink drying on the dotted line, Lauren ups the ante by upholding the contract, planning to bare it all.
Can Lauren save Byron from his past and have a real relationship with or without adding a third party to their affair? There is a lot more than erotic scenes that speed the story along, including a little mystery and a lot of heart. Don’t feel guilty reading this Cheshire love story, just read it and enjoy, Guiltless.

I had never read this author before and now will be looking for her books! The storyline is “new” and refreshing. With strong character connection, I should have been fanning myself it was so erotic
Good story! The characters are well developed and draw you in and elicit emotional attachment. Great plot twist at the end. Thoroughly recommend it if you are a fan of the genre.
I enjoyed the book. There are some sensitive subjects touched on but done so delicately. I like the storyline and I loved the romantic relationship and love scenes described.
In "Guiltless", Mollie Blake gives the reader thought-provoking pictures of physical abuse, menage a trois relationships, guilt-ridden pasts, and developing love.
