UNMASQUED: AN EROTIC NOVEL OF THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA “Lush and sensual from beginning to end, erotic and romantic in the extreme, Unmasqued is sure to please fans of historical fiction as well as erotica.” -Erotic Romance Writers Christine Daaé has heard the rumors of the hideous Phantom said to haunt the great Opera House, but she alone knows the truth of the man she calls her Angel of Music. For, as he tutors her to become a brilliant singer, he also teaches her about hidden passions. He comes to her only in the darkness, awakening her with the velvet timbre of his sensual voice and arousing her with his touch. He is real. Her inspiration. Her Ange de Musique . But beautiful Christine has attracted the attention of Opera House patrons Raoul, Vicomte de Chagny, and his lascivious brother, the Comte, who has his own reason for hating the mysterious Phantom. Soon Christine will find herself torn between the luxurious life of the handsome Vicomte and the only man who understands her music and her deepest desires. She will have to make the choice between living a life in the light of nineteenth-century Paris society-or spending the rest of her days revealing her love to the Phantom in the shadows of the Opera’s catacombs. MASTER: AN EROTIC NOVEL OF THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO “Inventive and steamy and clever all at once-this is Gale at her best.” -M. J.

Once free, he returns to Paris in the guise of the powerful Count of Monte Cristo, seeking vengeance on those who sent him to jail.

Mercédès Herrera Mondego was devastated when the man she loved disappeared. Now she is trapped in a loveless marriage, but her passions are reignited by Edmond’s return. And though she alone sees through his disguise, this harsh, angry man sends chills down her spine even as his very touch reminds her of the desire they once shared. She realizes soon enough that his plan to avenge himself on the men who incarcerated him also includes another sort of revenge-on her. From the seaside town of Marseille to the exotic caves of Monte Cristo Isle, an erotic battle of wills unfolds in the most electrifying game of love ever played between man and woman, between master and slave.
