Story4.5 out of 5 stars 739
Thirty days. That’s all Adam Steinbeck demands of his wife. Thirty days in a remote cottage, doing everything he demands, then he’ll sign her divorce papers, give her his half of their company, and walk away. He has 30 days to rediscover the man he once was. The Dominant Master he hid when he fell in love with the woman who would leave him five years later. Diana wants the company they built badly enough to go to the cottage with him. She’ll submit to him with her body, but her heart will never yield. She thinks this is his pathetic attempt to repair their marriage.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 47
Government operative David Jenkins is skilled at controlling his emotions. Feelings are lethal when your job is to infiltrate minds, erase and implant thoughts, and guard the nation's intellectual capital. But even he can't fight his strange attraction to Grace Woznisky. He'll do whatever it takes to protect her from a madman intent on possessing both their minds. Neither suspect their dangerous enemy has a larger motive, and David may be Grace's only chance for survival. All freelance artist Grace wants is steady-paying work and to see her flighty sister to the altar. But after David offers her a job, she finds herself in the middle of a mental tug of war-one that has her reeling from nightmares and fighting for her life. She must decide: Are her growing feelings for her new boss authentic, or is she a victim of his mind-altering abilities?

The story begins in 1962. On a rocky patch of the sun-drenched Italian coastline, a young innkeeper, chest-deep in daydreams, looks out over the incandescent waters of the Ligurian Sea and spies an apparition: a tall, thin woman, a vision in white, approaching him on a boat. She is an actress, he soon learns, an American starlet, and she is dying. And the story begins again today, half a world away, when an elderly Italian man shows up on a movie studio's back lot - searching for the mysterious woman he last saw at his hotel decades earlier.

Clare and Henry have known each other since Clare was six and Henry was 36. They were married when Clare was 23 and Henry was 31. Impossible but true, because Henry is one of the first people diagnosed with Chrono-Displacement Disorder: periodically his genetic clock resets and he finds himself misplaced in time, pulled to moments of emotional gravity from his life, past and future. His disappearances are spontaneous, his experiences unpredictable, alternately harrowing and amusing.

Very Excited!
Any additional comments?
Several years ago I read the entire Marketplace series. I fell in love with them. After having lost my eyesight a couple of years ago I have been hoping this book would make it to audible. A few months ago I heard it was coming! Words cannot express how excited I am to be able to experience this story once again and will be anxiously awaiting the rest of the series! Thank you!

Beautifully and simply written
I have been reading (and rereading) Laura Antoniou's books for over 20 years. The stories are well written, self reflective and funny at times. There is a cast of diverse, 3 dimensional characters that vary in both gender, personality, race, religion and orientation. Her stories of service, sophistication, sacrifice and education have been an inspiration and are aspirational. Highly recommend.

A truly excellent start to a magnificent series!
I have the entire series on heavy repeat in my audiobook rotation. It is by far the most well written lucid modern erotic fiction that I have had the privilege of enjoying.
Do yourself a favor and add all six to your digital and actual holdings.

Read over and over
This is my 4th full read of this series over 30 years. If you are interested in the most restrictive type of BDSM, or simply hearing about them - pick up this series.
No one conveys this hidden world better than Laura Antoniou.
