Capturing the Lost Woman

CAPTURING the lost woman is book two in The Lost Woman trilogy. The series is essentially a modern day Romance, with a strong story, supported by erotica. Directed at the Fifty Shades of Grey market, this series extends the world of female erotica by using themes of women taking control of their lives, financially, emotionally and sexually.
