Plot: Ivan Everley, 13th Baron Rothvale, will tell you himself he's the LAST person on earth who should have custody over a priceless collection of art, but since when does the irony of life ever fall in line with what somebody wants? Ivan might be a Lord according to British law, but he's just a regular guy with an appetite for speed...and women...and some dominating kink in the bedroom. Yeah, just a regular guy who happens have Olympic gold medals stashed away in his house. Riiiight. His public profile is merely a sham--his private life a carefully guarded secret borne out of the pain of betrayal. Even his famous cousin, Ethan Blackstone, doesn't know the whole story about the man he considers a brother.
Lord Ivan has a plethora of problems piled up to his aristocratic eyeballs--that only get more complicated when a beautiful art conservationist shows up to appraise his inherited collection of paintings--but that doesn't stop him from digging himself in deeper. Nope, not a bit. Once Ivan gets a taste of Gabrielle Hargreave, mistaken identity or not, he can't think of anything else but how perfect she felt in his arms the night he first laid his eyes on her.
He wants her, and what Ivan wants, Ivan gets. He is Lord Ivan after all. Gabrielle soon discovers that the Dom in him isn't taking 'no' for an answer. But, yet, Gabrielle Hargreave might just teach our discontent lord a thing or two about life, and about himself, and help them both discover the undeniable truth in what it means to find something genuinely...priceless.

"What we had done here together was something I'd never forget."- Ivan
#Ladies and gentlemen, Raine Miller delivers in this priceless and invigorating story that will intrigue you and leave you wanting for MORE!!♥♥
Priceless was great opening of the Rothvale series!! As a fan of the Blackstone Affair series, I’d been dying and dying for Ivan and Gaby’s story to be finally revealed and was not disappointed!
So, the story as of present:
Ivan Everly, “Lord Ivan,” 13th Baron Rothvale,
has everything a man could want: looks, power, fame, wealth, his pick of women, and.. a hefty collection of priceless art that he does not want nor need.
At loss of what to do with these previous art antiques that he'd inherited, he hires for a art conservationist to appraise these worthless pieces of rubbish, only to come face to face with Gabrielle Hargreave,
an art student at London University, who stops him dead in his tracks and at her mercy.
After all, this is NOT their first meeting.
This seductress who's piercing green eyes, who vividly haunts his memory, he’s met before…And he’s finally FOUND HER: the PERFECT submissive to his dominating brand of kink (in the bedroom).
“Gabrielle Hargreave pushed all my buttons, and in the right way. I was pretty sure I pushed hers as well, even if she wasn’t ready to admit it just yet.”
Trouble is, she keeps running away and dumbfounds Ivan irrevocably and completely!
“I understood I needed to be careful with how to proceed with Gabrielle. She was different. Not typical in how she viewed the world, or even in how she behaved in it. Somehow, I knew the things I’d done before to charm women, were not going to work with her. She was also a runner, I’d learned. She ran away when she was scared. But this was the heart of my problem, and I needed to figure her out.”
But with past grievances, scandals, debauched images and reputations; betrayals, and personas that aren’t what they’re purported to be, how will everything turn out?
One thing’s for certain: What Ivan wants, he gets. And he’s NOT letting Gabrielle go.
And with an irrefutable proposition that she can’t refuse, will the two give into a tumultuous love affair that could pave way to the most priceless of unearthing?
Read and you will find out!
“I know how to win, using every small thing to my advantage in order to get there. I had the medals to prove it. She was my win. My gold medal. Winning Gabrielle would be my toughest competition yet.”
My thoughts: I’ll admit that while I wanted more “sexy time,” Priceless makes up for it with a whole lot of sexual tension that will keep you on the verge of your seats
“Everything else disappeared from thought and nothing else existed excerpt her c*nt and my c*#k fitting together in the most primal way possible. Hard moving into soft. A key inserted into a lock. An arrow into a target. And arrow into a heart. Gabrielle was my arrow, and the…heart? The heart was me. The heart was me.”
And captivated with Ivan and Gabrielle's tainted pasts that have yet to be unveiled… What could they both be hiding? Hmmm...
Well, you know what they say, "All’s a go in love and war," (okay fine, I modified this famous idiom to my own use!) and by the feeling I get by Priceless, it's going to be a heart quenching, riveting, and ultra steamy war to be reckoned with!!
Readers get ready and brace yourselves!! You are about to be knocked "Pricelessly" off your feet!!
#An astounding and spellbinding spin off from Raine Miller’s patented Blackstone Affair series!! All those who’ve been waiting for “Gabvan” will be thoroughly pleased!! Priceless is an absolute MUST READ!! *makes note to self: needs to order signed copy of this book when becomes available on author's site* Gah!! I’m dying for bk 2 already!! Can it be October already?! ♥ ♥

☆✮ About the Author ✮☆
Raine Miller has been reading romance novels since she picked up that first Barbara Cartland book at the tender age of thirteen. And it's a safe bet she'll never stop, because now she writes them too! Granted Raine's stories are edgy enough to turn Ms. Cartland in her grave, but to her way of thinking, a hot, sexy hero never goes out of fashion. A former teacher, she's now writing sexy romance stories full time. She has a handsome prince of a husband, and two brilliant sons to pull her back into the real world if the writing takes her too far away. Her sons know she likes to write stories, but gratefully have never asked to read any, thank God! Raine loves to hear from readers and to chat about the characters in her books.
