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.
Another April suggestion and another series I couldn't put down. I think if I had known more about Dante I would have enjoyed these two books a little bit more but as it was I enjoyed them just fine. I started off not liking Gabriel at all and wanting her to just forget about him and move forward with Paul. But I was wrong and by Gabriel's Rapture (the second book) I was back on board with everything working toward a HEA.
These books have some dark sides to them, and they are quite long but I truly enjoyed reading them. I would say I haven't re-read them at this point but that might be due more to the length of the books than the content of them.
They were sooo loooong. I agree. I wasn't a fan of Gabriel in the beginning. I got frustrated in the beginning of the 2nd book. However, I was happy with the ending and loved Gabriel in the end and found a new respect for his character as he grew. And there was not one time that I wanted to smack Julia. I felt for her character the whole time. I also could not put it down in spite of how it drove me nuts, but I am so glad that I'm finished. It made me want to look more into Dante and Beatrice.
