There's so much to like about this story. Smokin' hot read, tall, dark and looming dead center in the book? You bet. Couple that with a heart of gold, not-so-easy resolution and well, you get the idea. Tainted Love takes place not in your usual humdrum American city but South Africa, in a city called Cape Town. The little taste of exotic culture really spices up the scenes and Therese has a way with descriptions and words that will knock your stockings off. Get it, if only for the gorgeous "scenes". Mm.
