The Exile #1
A Seductive Tale
The Brotherhood of the Midnight Pearl...
An island known as the Isle of Man, a place where passion among men is the rule--the only rule...
Linus Masterson, once a powerful man of authority, has left the isolated, mystical Isle of Men to return to mainland life. He left Mannos because of love and desire for one man, an initiate, he couldn't truly possess, but now he meets another man who reminds him of the object of his desire from paradise.
Sam, a young, attractive waiter, wearing the double pearl earring, marking him a mainland member of the Brotherhood of the Midnight Pearl, draws Linus's heated attention. Sam's a man meant for pleasure and Linus is determined to show him how good it can be at the hands of an immortal, experienced authoritarian. Linus can only hope that in the arms of his new lover he will return to the paradise he had thought forever lost...

The first defining love story Adrianna read back in junior high school was "Wuthering Heights" by Emily Bronte, and that set her on the road to her long standing love affair with the romance genre.

Sam is an open soul, with no fear to give himself to another, cause he is sure enough, and maybe a little careless, like all the youngs one.
Interesting plot, who makes a good beginning to a probably worthy series.

4 Hearts!! Adrianna Dane has written a rather exotic and erotic tale of a unique place with its own lifestyle, rules and a caste system that works for them... Ms. Dane has given us an interesting look at a different kind of world and culture that makes for some great reading... --Dee Dailey, The Romance Studio
Adrianna Dane paints a beautiful picture of paradise and the ecstasy of being a receiver of love. I completely enjoyed The Exile: A Seductive Tale... --Rosemary, JoyfullyReviewed.com
