Reviews

GOLD STAR AWARD! "I was mesmerized with the action and powerfully erotic love scenes. Ms. Savage did an astounding job in portraying the love Nell felt at first seeing her dream lover Akhenaten. Taking the highly charged moments and amplifying them with vivid extreme detail, the first initial frustration Nell felt made me want to strangle Akhenaten for leaving her unsatisfied. Each passing scene in which Akhenaten confesses his undying love for his wife and the turmoil Nell suffers realizing that it isn't HER that he loves but Nefertiti, every pain Nell felt from holding back the love she was feeling for him, every single day that passed as she tried to find a way back home was delivered clearly and beautifully... I was brought to tears at the final revelation. The beauty and profound depth of love Akhenaten and Nell felt for each other crossed millenniums and made me sigh at the final word in the book. This is an absolutely fantastic book that I would HIGHLY recommend reading... It has become a definite favorite in my collection, and I truly hope that Ms. Savage writes a continuation of this time period. Bravo!!" -- Mila "Bean" Ramos, Reviewer for Just Erotic Romance Reviews

6 MAGICAL WANDS! "I, Nefertiti is a packed with sizzling senxual tension, romance and suspense. Why does it seem as if everyone is making her out to be a thief? And why is it that no one seems to notice who the real thief is but her? Those questions and more kept me turning the pages so fast I ended up rereading the story just to see if I missed anything. Even the secondary characters will win your heart on this journey back in time." -- Astraea, Reviewer for Enchanted Ramblings

5 HEARTS! "Lacey Savage starts the story with a bang as Nell is in the throes of her erotic dream. Captivating from the first page on, Ms Savage takes her reader on journey in time to an exotic Egyptian court. Her characters are written very well, and in keeping of the time. Nell's confusion at first is palpable, and though she at first blunders her way through, she learns quickly and soon falls in love with her Pharaoh. The villain is well written and the secondary characters add to the plot. An emotional read, Ms Savage leads her reader through twists and turns, through intrigue, betrayal, through hot love scenes and through to a happy ending. This reviewer devoured every word and highly recommends that readers kept a look out for the stories from this highly talented writer." -- Valerie, Reviewer for Love Romances and More

GRADE A! "I love coming across a book that sates my desire for a good, erotic story that gets my blood pumping. I, Nefertiti by Lacey Savage grabbed me, held me close, and got the blood pulsing rather quickly. Nell is such a modern girl; strong-willed, demanding, and goes after what she wants. Akhenaten is a Pharaoh used to his people obeying him unconditionally and worshipping him as their god in the flesh. When they come together, bumping heads are the last thing on their minds. This time traveling story contains explicit sex and a group sex scene with exhibitionism and voyeurism. Ms. Savage has opened the portal of her creativity and snagged another satisfied reader." -- Shira, Reviewer for Simply Romance Reviews

5 ANGELS! "Lacey Savage pens a lush and hauntingly erotic story about a king and a queen separated by issues much larger than life. Akenaten is a man torn between duty and passion, and he is openly confused about the sudden changes in his wife, even as he worries about the legacy of his reign. Nell is a strong and confident female lead thrown into something so unbelievably farfetched that it takes her a while to get her bearings, but when she does, look out! Nell as Nell is good, but Nell as Nefertiti is just a smidgen better, making this tale sing. Ms. Savage manages to improve upon her own creation right before readers' eyes as this story unfolds. Toss in a pile of passion and a nefarious plot to overthrow the monarchy, and you've got a sensually seductive story. I, Nefertiti is a beautifully written creative slice of ancient times served up smoking hot." -- Michelle, Reviewer for Fallen Angels Reviews

5 FLAGS! "Lacey Savage has put her own personal special spin on history. Ms. Savage shows a wealth of knowledge on the subject. I found it very interesting that she was able to take the story and develop it to her own liking. I, Nefertiti is a very sexy story about time travel. Readers will find that it is appealing to many different generations of people. Every woman wants to be adored and worshipped by a king who loves her completely. I definitely recommend this book. I, Nefertiti is an intriguing story full of action, danger and love." -- Chantay, Reviewer for Euro Reviews

5 STARS! "Lacey Savage re-writes the historical love story of Akhenaten and Nefertiti. With the skill of a true story teller she takes the reader on a magical trip through time. The characters are richly drawn and the love that grows between Nell and Akhenaten is very satisfying. The sex scenes are hot. I enjoyed this story and cannot wait to read Ms. Savage's next book." -- Candy, Reviewer for eCataRomance

Excerpt

Nell dreamt of him again.

He hovered over her, his cock pressed against her swollen folds. When his image began to fade, she reached out to him, willing him to stay.

For once, she thought he might.

Her labored breathing turned raw. Savage. She panted and grasped his shoulders, pulling him near, watching with despair and relief as he shifted from a shimmering spirit into solid, breathtaking flesh.

"Stay," she murmured against his lips.

He didn’t answer. He never did.

Instead he propped himself on his elbows and ran his tongue along her lower lip. Nell opened to him, her soft moan urging him to dive deeper, to thrust his tongue between her lips, her teeth, filling her with his taste—sweet and decadent.

Nell craved more. As her orgasm neared, she thrust her hips up and arched her back, silently pleading for him to fill her. His passionate kisses overwhelmed her, but they were never enough. Her pussy remained agonizingly empty, his cock poised just at her entrance.

An anguished sob broke free from her throat, echoing off the walls of the small room, and she wrapped her legs around his waist, pulling him to her. He chuckled against her mouth. His body trembled with mirth, but his cock remained stubbornly out of reach. The more she wanted him, the less he was willing to give.

Nell struggled to contain her growing panic. He wouldn’t fuck her tonight, this encounter a repeat performance of every other night she’d passed restlessly during the last year. He toyed with her as if she were nothing more than a source of perverse amusement.

Anger, swift and consuming, rushed through Nell. She deserved better, even from a dream lover.

"If you leave tonight, don’t bother coming back tomorrow," she said. Even as the words tumbled out, she sighed, remembering a thousand similar threats. He came every time she slept, no matter what she said or did in an effort to stop him. If she remained awake for an entire night, he was furious the next, ravaging her body in ways that left her utterly exhausted the next morning.

The fight drained out of her as quickly as it had appeared. She was exhausted, her body taut with need, her mind filled with thoughts of him. Raking her fingers over his smooth chest, she imprinted every solid muscle on her memory. He shuddered beneath her touch and she smiled, content with the small victory. Perhaps he wasn’t as steadfast in his resolve as he wanted her to think.

When he broke the kiss, his ragged, hot breath caressed her cheek. She pulled back to look at him, but his face was half hidden in shadow. She yearned to see him in sunlight, his dark hair glistening brightly, his tan skin sparkling with a sheen of sweat in the shimmering light.

He brought her to the same place every night—a dimly lit room decorated only with a narrow bed on which she could recline while he teased her mercilessly until dawn crept upon them. There were no windows, no doors, no escape from this man who held her spellbound hour after restless hour.

Tonight, he’d started by slowly lavishing her pussy with greedy attention. Her former lovers had never performed oral sex for longer than a minute or two, content to finish the job with as little effort as possible. But he was nothing like the others. His tongue swept lazily over every bit of flesh until Nell thought she’d tremble away into nothing as a riveting orgasm crashed through her body in wave after furious wave.

He was relentless, incessant in his drive to consume her even as her every nerve ending thrummed with painful sensitivity after the earth-shattering climax. Begging him to stop, to let her recover, never did any good. He’d only pause long enough to caress her clit before sweeping down to lap the cream from her thighs, and if his tongue wasn’t in her, his fingers were.

Now hours after they’d started, when her pussy craved a frenzied fuck more than she’d ever thought possible, he was ready to pull away, to evaporate into another maddening memory.

"You can’t leave me again." The words came out as another threat, but it was feeble and they both knew it. His green, lust-filled gaze assessed her face and Nell sucked in a breath at the intensity she saw in his eyes. It felt as though he prepared to devour her whole.

She bit her lower lip, her legs still wrapped around him, and let her fingers skim across his ribs to cup his firm ass. "Stay," she repeated, softer this time, as she writhed beneath him, eager to make contact with his cock. "Stay forever."

His rock-hard body didn’t give an inch. He didn’t move or pull away from her. He didn’t have to. Instead, his image began to flicker and fade until she held nothing but air where his warm, solid flesh had been only seconds before.

Nell screamed, the sound agonizing to her own ears, despair clogging her throat. She scanned the corners of the dark, empty room in vain, looking for any hint of an out-of-place shadow, any indication he could still be there, watching her.

"I won’t wait for you," she whispered into the still air. Blinking back tears, she clutched the thin bed sheets in her fists. "One night you’ll come for me and I won’t be here."

From somewhere in the distance, she thought she heard him chuckle. The infuriating sound grazed over her skin and Nell shivered, feeling more alone than ever.
