And we would become the mirrors that reflected each other's most private wounds . . . and desires. The bonds of his love transformed me, even as I prayed that the torment of our pasts didn't tear us apart . . . Intensely romantic, darkly sensual and completely addictive, Bared to You will take you to the very limits of obsession - and beyond.
