Bound by Steel — Kirsten Saell

A night of brutality destroyed her innocence-can the love of two people heal her wounded spirit? "I've been thinking about Kaela." There they are-the words that lead Gil to suspect his wife Lianon is falling in love with Kaela, the beautiful, traumatized young woman they rescued from certain death six months ago. Gil has no idea how to compete with a woman for his wife's affections, and part of him ceases to care as Kaela begins to work her way under his skin. Kaela's sweet innocence fills a chasm in Lianon's soul she hadn't even realized was there. As she gently helps Kaela rebuild her shattered confidence, Lianon begins to believe healing the young woman's wounded spirit could be the key to wholeness for all three of them. If Gil agrees to follow her lead and help Kaela discover her own feminine power. But even as they all succumb to their growing desire, Gil and Lianon are drawn against their will back into the intrigues and vendettas of Belthalas' elite. With Lianon's life at stake, Gil must weave a dangerous path between one adversary's ambition and another's lust for vengeance. Success will save Lianon.but could cost them Kaela.
