Synopsis
One of the world's most beloved stories as it has never been told before, Unmasqued is a novel of breathtaking historical erotica.
His exquisite obsession...
Christine Daaé heard rumors of the hideous Phantom said to haunt the great Opera House in 19th-century Paris. But its youngest and brightest star knows something no one else does-the truth. For in the darkness she thrills to the deep velvet timbre of his arousing voice, and quivers to the soft strokes of his leather-gloved fingers. He is real. Her inspiration. Her Ange de Musique. Her liberator.
Her erotic awakening...
Condemned to the catacombs below, Erik has desired his obsession from the shadows, careful to keep his identity, and his secret, in the dark. Only he understands Christine's extraordinary talents and her beauty. Only he can pleasure her like no man has before. But his sensual power comes with a price-and a risk to everyone who stands between them. For Christine too is succumbing to her most forbidden and dangerous desires-and to the Phantom who's making them all come true.

July 09, 2009: never really read an erotic book other than some of anne rice's work, and enjoyed it very much. it kept you wanting to know what could happen next. i like erik to be stronger than he was in this book but all in all well done. my only real problem with this book was the very end when she tried to make it out to be that the story was real and that they were friends with lon chaney. other than that it was a good read if you want to get hot under the collar.
What do you mean not everyone wants to have sex with a psychotic stranger with a rope fetish?by Valtinen

November 27, 2008:
The author and the publishing company need to issue formal apologies to their female readers (not that it wasn't an assault on my refined masculine sensibilities!) since they imagine this sort of demeaning filth is what satisfies them. To listen to the message they're giving out, every woman's fondest dream is to be helpless, psychologically manipulated and raped. There's something seriously wrong with that.
This book isn't about wild, wanton and kinky sex. In certain doses, some of that can be fun. It was a fabulous thought, both scandalous and exciting, that the proper Madame Giry had a lot more going on under those petticoats than she let on! But there's a difference between Madame Giry having a good tumble in Box Five and Carlotta being chained and tortured for Philippe's enjoyment. And that's exactly what it was: abuse.
Unmasqued only achieves in turning Phantom phans away in disgust.
