Publisher's summary

From New York Times best-selling author Sylvain Reynard comes the first novel in the Gabriel's Inferno series, a haunting, unforgettable tale of one man’s salvation and one woman’s sensual awakening - now a film from Passionflix!

Enigmatic and sexy, Professor Gabriel Emerson is a well-respected Dante specialist by day, but by night he devotes himself to an uninhibited life of pleasure. He uses his notorious good looks and sophisticated charm to gratify his every whim, but is secretly tortured by his dark past and consumed by the profound belief that he is beyond all hope of redemption.

When the sweet and innocent Julia Mitchell enrolls as his graduate student, his attraction and mysterious connection to her not only jeopardizes his career, but sends him on a journey in which his past and his present collide.

An intriguing and sinful exploration of seduction, forbidden love, and redemption, Gabriel’s Inferno is a captivating and wildly passionate tale of one man’s escape from his own personal hell as he tries to earn the impossible - forgiveness and love.

Wonderful! I LOVED IT!!

Wonderful story line. Was quite shocked at several twists and turns!! Couldn't help but become a bit emotional, and truly dreaded coming to the end of their story. Narrating was GREAT!! Loved the deep, rich baritone that gave Gabriel just a bit more steamy sex appeal too!

Great narration and story- I finished it in a day!

I had never heard of Gabriel’s Inferno until a few days ago when I randomly stumbled upon the title on Audible. I decided to try it and was immediately impressed by the awesome narrator. He has a great voice and is so relaxing to listen to. Although I felt that the book started off a bit slow, it picked up quickly and then I was hooked. I got so invested in the story that I ended up finishing this book in just a day. Considering the book is 20 hours long, that says a lot! I then purchased the rest of the books from this series and also finished those within just a couple of days. The entire series was quite enjoyable, excluding the 4th book (which you can easily skip). Based off of a lot of reviews it seems that people like to compare this to 50 Shades of Grey, although I don’t really understand why. To me, this book was hardly about sex at all and was really just a romance novel. In fact there’s only 1 sex scene in the entire book! That being said, after the first book there are more sex scenes, but even those are not as intense as the ones in the 50 Shades of Grey series. As I mentioned earlier, there are 4 books in the series, but you can skip the last book, since the series was originally written as a trilogy. To me, the last book was just unnecessary and left too many questions unanswered. Even if you skip the 4th book, however, you will feel as if the series still comes to a nice conclusion. Try this series- you’ll get hooked!

loved it

Great Book! Loved it, spots that seem like they were rushing to read it. and parts where they say the pause and sighes..kinda da distracting..lol

Unexpected Surprise

I thought this was going to be the typical romance novel but was pleasantly surprised. LOVE the love story ❤️❤️

A very VERY long love story

Did I mention this is a LONG and somewhat uneventful story. That being said it kept my attention throughout. I just kept waiting for the gasp moment or expecting more present day drama than dealing with past events. Good listen, completed in two in a half days. Although, the narrators female voice, at times annoyed me ;-/

Great book

Very seductive and entertaining take on physical and emotional innocence. Highly recommend this to all whom enjoy a sensual and intelligent love story.

A DIVINE EROTICA

I thought this was very original. I loved the erotica and the fact that the story spanned many years. It pulled at the heart strings and made me want to have ‘private’ time with my partner. It was romantic, suspenseful, erotic, and dramatic. All my favourites. Plus the Dante tie-in was amazing because I’m a huge fan of ‘A DIVINE COMEDY’.

Great book

The Gabriel series are a must read. I love the characters. I want to read the series over and over again.

Strong start, weak end

I loved the beginning and the strong male character and the story. But once they started to like each other he became so mushy and MANLEY. Very wishy-washy and too lovey-dovey for me. 

Excellent Love Story!

Wow! This is an excellent book! I read the Kindle eBook and loved the story. I couldn't stop reading the book. I stayed up late each night reading the book. Purchase the book you will not be disappointed.
