Review: Blackmailed into Marriage by Lucy Monroe

Rosalia (Lia) Chavez-Torres Kennedy has vaginismus and can’t have penetrative sex because of it. During her first marriage to Toby, it caused both of them a lot of stress and anxiety. On the night he died, Toby was leaving Lia because of their lousy sex life. Ever since she hasn't felt much like a woman at all and her self-confidence is extremely low on that front.

Despite and probably because of Lia's sexual problem, Blackmailed into Marriage has some melt-your-spine, extremely sexy lovemaking scenes with Damian, the hero. He takes great joy in teaching Lia to love her body and femininity and not to think of her condition as a defect but something that can bring pleasure. They wind up using dilation tubes that gradually widen her until sex is possible. Can I just say: Hot. Hot. HOT!

Damian Marquez is an illegitimate son of a well to do Spanish noble. Having never been recognized by either side of his parents’ families he’s determined to make them notice and deal with him. He agrees to a marriage merger with Lia’s grandfather, Benedicto Chavez-Torres, and gets all the respectability that he craves as well as a lesser title for himself – don and his children will inherit the full titles.

Kaylee, Lia's daughter from her marriage to Toby, has a heart defect. When Lia goes to Benedicto for help, he doesn’t really see Kaylee as ill. In fact because she looks and acts so healthy, he uses her "supposed" health condition as a bargaining chip to get Lia to do as he wants which is to marry Damian (a man he apparently selected for her a while ago). Damian doesn't know about Kaylee's condition and is appalled when he finds out Benedicto played him too and put Lia through emotional blackmail. That said, now that he has her, Damian is not going to let Lia go... he just needs to convince her that they're perfect for each other.

Who says you can’t learn things from romance novels? Never heard of this vaginismus condition before.

Same here but it was handled nicely and really ramped up the heat in the bedroom. :)
