Synopsis
Synopsis - Restraint is a page turning thriller about one woman’s determination to live by the same rules as men and beat them at their own game, and her quest for revenge against the man who betrayed her...a novel with the charged eroticism of Body Heat and the perilous sexual gamesmanship of Fatal Attraction. Vega Johnson is beautiful, successful, elegant, eerily passive. There was not enough passion in her marriage for it to dissolve in anger, which is why she remains friends with her ex, Don, and why when he introduces her to Paul Lattimer, a hand some man he describes as “rolling in money,” Vega is totally unprepared for the voracious and reckless emotions that over take her. She senses that Paul is different, dangerous in some way, a man playing by his own rules. And when the excitement he stirs touches her, Vega awakens to her own appetites and embarks on a journey on which she throws aside, one by one, the cautions and inhibitions of a life time to explore the depths of her own eroticism. With Paul as her mentor, Vega, an investment counsellor, becomes a predator, finally crossing the line into criminality. But her allegiance isn’t to Paul; it is to desire. Through him, she discovers her ability to transcend fear, to go for broke in a man’s world, and to risk transgression – both sexual and criminal – in order to feel the power of being free.
