Eleven minutes review7/7/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Because of its graphic descriptions, the novel has been described as “erotic”.Įleven Minutes tells the story of Maria, a young girl from a Brazilian village, whose first innocent brushes with love leave her heart-broken. The book deals with issues surrounding sex and sexuality, such as prostitution, and sacred sex in the context of love. Initially I thought not to write about book because sex related topic is always considered as bad topic but then I thought I have to write about book (anyway it depends on individual’s perception and depends on how individual’s interpret it) . Sometimes it’s very difficult to write anything about book or content of book. Right now I am on same situation. I am talking about Eleven Minutes written by Paulo Coelho. ![]()

Or at least I had until a new neighbor moved into my building and captured my attention, drawing me in like a moth to a flame.

But after spending some time together, behaving is the last thing either of them want to do. So the only option in his mind is to seduce the man and get him fired. Roderick just wants to be normal, and the giant alpha at his side doesn’t make that easy. He almost turns down the job, but after his outrageous salary requirement is approved, he can’t afford to walk away. At least until he gets called to essentially babysit some rich kid omega. Providing security to a twelve-year-old Maltese for every vet and groomer visit was high on his list. Teagan has been sent on some crazy jobs while working at Alpha For Hire.

But his dad takes all those random death threats he receives to heart and insists that Roderick have a full time bodyguard with him any time he goes out. And it certainly doesn’t mean he needs an alpha to protect him. Just because Roderick is the omega son of a billionaire, doesn’t mean he’s weak. Let us know if there’s something missing & we’ll add it to the list. ![]() |
