Primula Bond
Erotic Romance
NR: Tell us about the Unbreakable
trilogy.
Primula: These three books chart the intense
slow-burn love affair between the dark, aloof, troubled Gustav Levi and the
younger, feistier red-head Serena Folkes. They each have something the other
wants, at first materially (he finances and launches her career in return for
her exclusive female company) and then emotionally (when they start to trust
and love again, with the aid of red-hot sexual attraction). Any similarity to
other erotic romances ends there, because I have woven into the story not only
the artistic details of Serena's photography but also lush descriptions of
cities and locations, and in The Golden Locket the explosive re-appearance of
Gustav's brother Pierre shakes up the relationship just when it looked as if it
was on an even keel. No couple in real life is isolated from the rest of the
world, and the 'unbreakability' of Serena and Gustav's relationship is
constantly tested by the games and threats of various faces from the past.
