Free Tempest In Eden Ebooks To Download
A renowned artist’s model, Shay Morrison has posed nude to inspire great works of art. But hidden inside her, where no one can see, is the pain of a failed marriage. Then she accidentally walks in on Ian Douglas―as he steps from the shower. His embarrassment and disapproval of Shay are immediately apparent. What isn’t so obvious is his profession: Ian is a minister in a very staid community. Challenged and hurt, Shay decides to try to make him fall in love with her. Yet as she plans to capture Ian, her best-laid plans take her into emotional territory where she’s never been.… Now a woman with a troubled past tries to understand a man different from anyone she has known before, and the new feelings rising from her heart.

TEMPEST IN EDEN is the love story of Shay Morrison, a nude model and Ian Douglas, a minister. They meet one weekend at the request of their newlywed parents(Shay's mother and Ian's father). What a weekend! The sexual tension was sky high and the verbal drawls were hilarious. No matter how different their careers and views are, nothing could stop their attraction from excalating into a full blown love of a lifetime. I deeply respected Ian's religious beliefs because even though he desperately wanted Shay, he did not succumb to temptation. I admired Shay for being so comfortable with her sexuality and proud of her career. It was wonderful to see these two unique people become two halves of a whole. Their characters grew throughout the book and learned to fully accept each other and compromise when it was needed. This is a wonderful read worth your time and money. You'll love it. Trust me!
I can't get over the fact that this book was originally published in 1983 under the pseudonym Rachel Ryan. Sandra Brown was ahead of her time! This story was so different and wonderful. The characters were very human and extremely likeable. I loved the fact that they both worked thru the preconceived notions they had of one another. This story deals with people of substance. I loved that Ms. Brown made Ian take his job as a minister seriously, yet he still followed his heart as well. I thought it was terrific that Ian was able to love Shay for who she was , without compromising us own beliefs. I loved that the author showed respect for different faiths as well. Sandra Brown is an expert at tackling strong topics. She can pull anything off gracefully. This book is funny, intense and very romantic! Buy this book!
Another beautifully written love story by Sandra Brown. Although,this is one of Miss Brown's earliest novels, the story will captivare you no matter what time or decade it was written. It is that good! Coaxed by her mother to come to their cabin, Shay Morrison agreed to make the trip and also to make her mother happy. After all, this would be a chance to see and get to know her new step-father, John Douglas. As she approached the cabin, she turned off the car, slowly got out, and found herself going in. It seems that nobody was home or so she thought. Putting her bags inside the bedroom, she heard someone singing. What the hell? Not only was she amused by all this but her breath was taken away from her when the most handsome man she has ever seen just stepped out of the shower. Once he sees her though, tells a different story. He is furious to the point that she should have warned him, she was there. Not caring either way that she saw his nudity, makes him more livid. When the newly-weds arrive home, Shay learns for the first time that young Ian Douglas is her new step-brother? Really? Sitting at the dinner table, Shay decides not to let this guy get under her skin, for if she can help it, have the last word no matter what! Except she never expected the damn tables to turn over on her like they did. Smiling with disdain, she says to Ian, "I'm not ashamed of my body like most people I know. You see, I'm a nude model". Grinning at her, Ian replys " Really? Well, I'm a preacher"...........this is one beautiful love story. It covers everything...beginning with their little tidbits with each other, their sexuality, , wondering if they will ever see each other again, discovering true love and least but not least, the steamy revelations with these two characters ..............I loved it!....if you enjoy a great love story, than you won't be disappointed with this one....enjoy!.......thank you...♡♡
Looking at the reviews- either you will really like this one or you will think it stinks! Well, I fall in with the "really like this one!" The opening scene is great. Shay's mother has remarried and this is the first opportunity to meet and spend time together as a family at the camp. Everyone- mother, Shay, step-father and step-brother is to be there. Shay arrives finding mother and step-dad gone and step-brother in shower. Shay walks into her bedroom in time to see Ian step out of the shower (while singing and dancing to Beach Boy's song Good Vibrations) in the adjoining bathroom- he forgot to shut the door! Their eyes meet! She is laughing at his act and he's fuming with embarrassment. This is the beginning of a rough weekend. Shay is to find out that Ian is a minister, while she is a nude model for artists out of New York. A great story of how they handle their attraction to each other-the rough roads as well as the smooth ones, differences in careers, their past history-one divorced while the other is a widow. I appreciate Ian taking his religious commitment serious. Both characters are with strong personalities. Read it for yourself and see what you think.
I actually wanted to read this book because some of the reviews on it were so bad.. The premise of the book sounded interesting enough Shay Morrison, a nude model for artists, and Ian Douglas, a conservative minister. Her mother and his father had married and wanted everyone to meet at a cabin so everyone could get to know each other. Shay had not yet met the man her mother had married nor knew much about his son. They get off on the wrong foot when she catches him coming out of the shower and gets an eye full.. And that causes some conflict between the two (some funny).. She is also very attracted to him but after her first marriage ended because he wanted her to be something she wasnt she is very sensitive to thinking Ian is judging her and nothing could come of there attraction.. There journey from there is very sweet - with Shay still having alot of insecurities about the relationship.. There is a line from Shay that she was thinking about as she was waiting for Ian on there honeymoon - She longed for an adventurous sex life. But she didn't expect Ian to share her desire for variety and experimentation (cause of him being a minister). Boy was she wrong :)
