Blurb

Professor Gabriel Emerson has left his position at the University of Toronto to embark on a new life with his beloved Julianne. Together, he’s confident that they can face any challenge. And he’s eager to become a father.

But Julianne’s graduate program threatens Gabriel’s plans, as the pressures of being a student become all consuming. When she is given the honor of presenting an academic lecture at Oxford, Gabriel is forced to confront her about the subject of her presentation – research that conflicts with his own. And in Oxford, several individuals from their past appear, including an old nemesis intent on humiliating Julia and exposing one of Gabriel’s darkest secrets.

In an effort to confront his remaining demons, Gabriel begins a quest to discover more about his biological parents, beginning a chain of events that has startling repercussions for himself, Julianne, and his hope of having a family.




Verdict

**I was Given an Arc Copy of Gabriel's Redemption in turn for an honest review**

A wow from me! I am so grateful to be part of Sylvain Reynard's blog tour for his new book Gabriel's Redemption. This is the third book in the Gabriel's series, however ladies it also is the final book too :( boohoo yes i know tissues at the ready!
So we are following Julianne and Professor Gabriel Emerson once again in their journey of life and enjoying it together. But with always a nice happy couple life can come with old pasts come back to haunt them...

This book is just ever so superb! A hooking read that had me gripped to my Kindle always trying to grab a 10 minute break so I could carry on, As soon I started I was straight away sucked back into the lives of Gabriel && Julianne but only this time as Mr & Mrs Emerson and starting a new life as husband and wife this time.

I was so blown away by Gabriel's Redemption so much, I was hooked with every page and I really didn't want it to end. It was nice to see Julianne and Gabriel happy again in their own little newlywed bubble. Julianne started a new graduate program at Harvard but Gabriel's plans are going to threaten that but it's whether Julianne will agree or not.

If you ever wondered what happened to Paul, Christa, Professor Katherine Picton, Natalie and Simon, then don't worry they are in this book and with plenty of goings on. Christa up to her old tricks once again but not without consequences. We also find out what was written in that letter that Gabriel wrote to Julianne in Gabriel's Inferno in which she ripped up........Finallly! had been waiting ages to find out.

I love the style of writing Sylvain Reynard does and It is amazingly written by a bloke which is different than a woman writing erotic and romantic novels.



The best quote from the book would have to be -
“Tonight I’ll help you touch the stars. And when you fall back to earth, I promise to catch you.”

Gabriel's Redemption was definitely not a predictable book or ending, It was an amazing read in which had unpredictable things happening left right and center. I felt this book was the right time to answer unanswered things or questions that may have been running in your head after reading the first two.
And Yes there is plenty of sex scenes between the two lovers so entwined with themselves that they get a unexpected shock that does change their lives forever..the sex scenes will certainly make you blush if your reading in public.

Gabriel's Redemption is one hell of a book that is going to make you laugh with Professor Emerson's sarky comments to Julianne but also make you shed a few tears but also you wanting to stomp your feet because your annoyed with a certain person. but overall I would say this is has been the best series by far in 2013 and I have loved every single one of them books.
 I am gutted there will be no more in the series but I think Dante and Beatrice will be around for a while in our hearts and minds...

I have to rate Gabriel's Redemption my rare Gold star rating which is like 5*++ if I could I would rate 1million times over hehe. I do think you all need to read these three amazing books, you will regret it otherwise.

The series in order:Gabriel's Inferno #1
Gabriel's Rapture #2Gabriel's Redemption #3

Book Review: Gabriel's Inferno by Sylvain Reynard

Title: Gabriel's Inferno

Author: Sylvain Reynard

Publisher: Penguin

Publication Date: 2012

Blurb

Enigmatic and sexy, Professor Gabriel Emerson is a well-respected Dante specialist by day, but by night he devotes himself to an uninhibited life of pleasure. He uses his notorious good looks and sophisticated charm to gratify his every whim, but is secretly tortured by his dark past and consumed by the profound belief that he is beyond all hope of redemption. 

When the sweet and innocent Julia Mitchell enrolls as his graduate student, his attraction and mysterious connection to her not only jeopardizes his career, but sends him on a journey in which his past and his present collide. 

An intriguing and sinful exploration of seduction, forbidden love, and redemption, Gabriel’s Inferno is a captivating and wildly passionate tale of one man’s escape from his own personal hell as he tries to earn the impossible—forgiveness and love.



Verdict


- My Rare Gold Star Rating 5*/5* star rating!!
This book is mind blowing! It deserves the 5/5 star rating but also my rare gold star rating too! I have only just finished this book this afternoon and my mind is still thinking about it, It is truly amazing!
Think 50 shades of Grey and The Crossfire series multiple by 5 and you get Gabriel's inferno by Sylvain Reynard (Yes written by a bloke) It is superb!Before I started reading this, I had seen far too many bad star ratings for the book and people complaining about the style of writing and that it wasn't for them.The one thing I have found while being a blogger is you cannot judge a book before reading so with these bad reviews I didn't let it make my mind up..I thought no! I am going to read this book and decide for myself and I am so glad I did read it.
We Meet Professor Gabriel Emerson who is very well-respected Dante Specialist, He is a sex god and clearly knows it too! Women drop at his feet until He Meets Julia Mitchell the sweet and innocent girl who has a secret and cannot tell him but Gabriel has plenty of secrets himself, as they tangle in a love web of themselves, things get more and more serious for them and secrets are opened..whether its for the best or not.
It is a fantastic read and anybody should read it! There is three books in the series, which the third one comes out later in December! Gabriel's Inferno is a steamy read and while reading in public will probably have you blushing in public but there is such forbidden love between Gabriel and Julia and you get hooked within the chapters and I adored both of the characters and I loved reading about them and the closeness they became and how their love blossoms in the book.The last scene in the book blew me away for a start and was fantastic lol! I love the style of writing Sylvain Reynard has done and to be written by a man is fantastically written and I cannot wait to carry on reading the series.
I do think with this type of series, It depends on the reader whether your going to enjoy it or not! I don't want to give too much away because I feel with the so many bad ratings of this book, I feel you need to read it for yourself and decide whether you enjoyed it. 
5 words to sum up Gabriel's Inferno - Explosive, Amazing, Beautiful, Sensual and Arousing.
