"Sex, power, and complete control are a few ways to describe this hot number...A powerfully hot book. The pages heat up as these two characters discover each other. Drawing you in and keeping you there until you know the whole story. It is worth every minute of your time."—Misty, Writers Unlimited
"5 Ribbons!...I highly recommend this book. Adrianna Dane's visual wordweaving abilities will pull you in and keep you sitting on the edge of your seat until the last page. You'll need a few tissues and a bucket of ice; however, it's well worth it to see how it all ends."—Claudia, Romance Junkies
"4 Unicorns!...The suspense and passion in this book sizzled off the page. I enjoyed the way Ms. Dane wove a tale of mystery and intrigue within the story. Sylvie is a well-rounded character with all the feelings right out front so that everyone can see. I loved Daimaen’s character through this book. Wonderful job Ms. Dane."—Laura, Enchanted in Romance
"5 Angels!...Ms. Dane's story Sylvie's Gift isn't one of the normal BDSM stories. If you're looking for a loving, erotic tale of two people with a mystery thrown in, then grab this one. Daimaen teaches Sylvie the love and care that a Dom shows his sub. This isn't about spankings, or even being tied up, it's about the gift that a sub gives to her Dom. These two characters are so loving and caring that the readers will wish they could still be in their presence after they've turned the last page..."—Donna, Fallen Angel Reviews
"4 Stars!...Rated 'O' for 'Orgasmic'...I found I was drawn into the story because of Sylvie's emotions and Daimaen's actions...I thought this was a tender and heartfelt love story and both characters were memorable..."—Kay, Just Erotic Romance Reviews
"3 Stars!...Not for the faint of heart. It's very hot and well written, with good characters, but the main sexual theme of submission is not for everyone. Readers who don't mind their sex on the kinky side will definitely enjoy Dane's offering."—Jill Brager, Romantic Times BOOKclub Magazine
"3 Cups!...I needed several glasses of ice water to make it through Ms. Dane's novel. I definitely would suggest this novel as a diverting afternoon read."—Deshanna, Coffee Time Romance
"4.5 STARS!...As a piece of erotic fiction, Sylvie's Gift is paced perfectly, and well worth the read. As a piece of BDSM fiction, it possesses enough elements to hold one's kinky interest. The psychological and emotional aspects of a D/s relationship are thoroughly explored here. I recommend it enthusiastically."--Kevin, BDSM Reviews
...She looked up at him. His breath caught. She had the most unusual eyes of silver framed by thick dark lashes. His instinct was to peel that sexy little black dress from her body right now. The hinting shadow of her curves was driving him crazy.
"I honestly don't know why I came. Allison can be very…persuasive."
"Yes, I expect she can be." He guided her to the wet bar. "Would you like something to drink? Let me guess." His eyes surveyed her from her head down to her pink-polished toenails. "Chablis. Something light, yet sophisticated, I think, slightly sweet, but not overpoweringly so. No ice, and very wet."
His innuendo was not lost on her. He saw her shiver slightly. Good. She offered him a nervous smile. "You're very sure of yourself, aren't you?"
He shrugged. "Perhaps. I like to think I can read people well. Their likes and dislikes." His eyes bore into her silver depths. "I want to know your likes and dislikes." He handed her the glass of wine and their fingers touched. Then he lowered his head to whisper in her ear. "I particularly want to know your fears, your fantasies, Sylvie." He straightened and again looped her free arm through his. "Come, we'll sit and talk. No one will bother us..."
