highly recommended

When Santa Fe antique dealer Julie Anderson was curiously drawn to purchase a battered jewelry box, she never expected it to contain her own personal love slave. Especially not tall, dark and sinfully handsome Tristan-a man hard to resist, and determined to fulfill her every desire.

Though Tristan was a rogue of the battlefield and the boudoir, making love with Julia was like nothing he'd ever known. Yet revealing his true heart would break the centuries-old spell and separate them forever. And Tristan would do anything to go on loving Julia. . .even remain a slave through all eternity. . .

My first Gena read

This was the first book i read by the great storyteller Gena Showalter. I rented it out at the library a few years ago, and have been a fan ever since. It opened up a new world to me in the Romance Genre. I do plan to purchase it soon to add to my collection. You'll love it to.

Pleasure Slave was great!

This is the second book I read by Gena Showalter and it too was just as good at The Stone Prince.

In this story a young woman, Julie, purchases a small trinket box from a flea market only to find out that it's sort of like a genie in a bottle. Inside is Tristan, a pleasure slave, cursed to spend eternity to please women. Their wish is his command. The only way to free himself is to fall in love with a woman.

Julie does fall in love with Tristan and he too falls in love with her, yet he denies it until he finally comes to his senses.

This story was really funny. Gena Showalter does a great job with placing the main male character in the unfamiliar world and making them act strange and barbaric, i.e. smashing telephones and answering machines.

9/10 - it was a bit too much like the first novel.

I just started reading Heart of the Dragon by Gena and it's great so far! Loving it.

P.S. - All three of these titles I purchased in the Kindle Bundle. Great buy at $9.99 for all three titles.

Stupid titel - good book

Ok, first of all: What a stupid title! I was reluctant to start reading this book because it sounds like EC at it's finest But the book turned out not being so bad.

Tristan is a warrior from a planet called Imperia (if I remember right ). On this planet are normal humans and sorcerers called Druinns. Those two were constantly fighting against each other but eventually formed a weak alliance threatend by rebels. Tristan hooks up with Zirra, a Druinn, and when he wants to break up with her she gets really nasty and puts a spell on him to be her pleasure slave. He gets locked in a jewel box and whatever woman ownes his box is his master. With doing that Zirra broke one of the laws of the alliance that states that Druinns are not allowed to use their powers against humans. As a result Tristan's box and her powers are being taken away from her. Only true love could undo the spell and than Tristan would be sent back to Imperia - without his loved one.

After 600 years of slavery Tristan's box gets bought by Julia, a antiques seller with extremely low self esteem. She get's the shock of her lifetime when a half-naked guy with a sword appears out of nowhere infront of her and Tristan is pissed as hell because he has to deal with another master

The rest of the book is pretty much about them falling in love because Tristan realizes that Julia is the first woman ever that cares about his feelings and needs and Tristan finally give Julia self esteem He can't tell her he loves her though because that would set him free and he would have to leave her. Unfortunately Zirra finds a way to get her powers back and she wants Tristan as her slave again

I liked the book. It was pretty well written. However, Julia's insecurities went a little on my nerves later in the book. I could understand where she comes from and all but still... There was also a part of the book being about Julia trying to get with her neighbour Peter and Tristan 'helping' her, which was totally unnecessary and annoying IMHO. But besides that the book was pretty good - not the best book ever but good enough.
