Gabriel's Inferno is the first in this intoxicating trilogy featuring Gabriel and Julia, following their sensual journey of forbidden love - with all the obsessive yearning of Twilight with the intensity of Fifty Shades of Grey.

Two lovers bound by their darkest desires...

Professor Gabriel Emerson has embarked on a passionate but clandestine love affair with his former student, Julia Mitchell and is teaching her the sensual delights of the body, and the raptures of sex.

But their happiness is threatened by conspiring students, academic politics and jealous ex-lovers. Can their love survive against all odds and will Gabriel fight to keep Julia?

Gabriel's Rapture is an exquisite story of a forbidden love that knows no bounds that will touch your mind, body and soul.
