The Shareem were made to be all things to women, to live to please, and to have no emotions—not anger, jealousy, joy, or love.
Lady Talan d’Urvey has never seen a Shareem. But she’s read the diary of a woman who long ago spent two glorious weeks with one. Intrigued, Lady Talan, studying to be a celibate, decides to find a Shareem and have one heady taste of carnality before she takes the robes and shuts herself from the world.
Talan finds Rees, a Shareem experiment who’d terrified his captors and then escaped. Rees is all levels of Shareem rolled into one, his capabilities far beyond anyone understands. No one knows who Rees is, and Rees likes it that way.
Rees is captivated by Lady Talan. Who is this woman under her prim robes who wants to study him? He thinks it hilarious to be appointed as the man to teach her about Shareem, but Rees never bargains for losing his heart, proving the hard way that Shareem can indeed fall in love . . .
