Summary

AIDA
I've endured fifteen years of underwhelming marital sex with Lord John Russell。
One front-page tell-all from his secretary puts an end to that misery pretty efficiently。
As the media furore rages around our divorce, two things become abundantly clear。
One。 It’s time for some decent orgasms。
Which is why I’ve joined the Unfurl programme at London’s top sex club, Alchemy。
Two。 It’s time to take control of the narrative。 For myself and for other women。
And that's why I plan to document my sexual revolution on camera。

CAL
Sexy AF celebrity, Aida Russell, is looking for a mentor on her journey to reclaim her sexuality。
As co-founder of London’s most exclusive sex club, I’m her man。
I’ll make her come。
Make her forget。
Untether her from the constraints of her past。
I warn her at the outset not to get emotionally attached。 I don’t do commitment。
But when she begins to revel in the new-found liberty I helped her find, I'm the one who struggles。
I should be proud。 Relieved。
Job done, right?
But the higher she soars, the more attached I get。

Untether is a spicy reverse age gap romance (10 years' age gap) where he falls first。 It's full of the searing heat levels, glamour, and mega-feels you've come to expect from the Alchemy series。

3。5 ⭐️ I wanted to love this book, but I struggled with Cal and Aida’s overall relationship aside from the sex。 I would have liked to see a couple “normal” dates for them to give insight of how they’re falling for each other — especially Cal because I feel his character went from Hello to I Love You overnight。 More of his point of view and thought process would have been great to read。

Elodie Hart has done it again。 Just when I thought she couldn't make me love a flawed hero as much as Rafe or Zach or Anton, she brings me Cal。 Throughout the Alchemy series, we see Cal as a fun-loving guy with very little care。 Oh, sure, he loves his Alchemy group -- and has since their uni days -- and we know he's whip-smart and beyond loyal。 But that's all we knew -- until now。 This is when Aida brings Cal to his knees。 Untether allows us to see Cal -- his strengths, his vulnerabilities。As an Elodie Hart has done it again。 Just when I thought she couldn't make me love a flawed hero as much as Rafe or Zach or Anton, she brings me Cal。 Throughout the Alchemy series, we see Cal as a fun-loving guy with very little care。 Oh, sure, he loves his Alchemy group -- and has since their uni days -- and we know he's whip-smart and beyond loyal。 But that's all we knew -- until now。 This is when Aida brings Cal to his knees。 Untether allows us to see Cal -- his strengths, his vulnerabilities。As an American ex-pat, Aida's life has been in London for a long time。 Former wife of a well-known politician, Aida shows the world that she's formidable。 But, she's realistic: she's in her 40s and she's given up so many parts of her to those who don't deserve it。 Well, no more。 She wants other women to realize they do not have to settle for less in every part of their lives -- especially the bedroom。Oddly enough, I'm not much of a fan of reverse age-gap。 HOWEVER (yes, it deserves to be in all caps), it's not noticeable in this book。 Elodie Hart does what she does best: weaves a tale that allows the reader to escape into a sultry, steamy world that champions finding love when least expected。Full of all the goodness and heat (so。much。heat) of the previous books in the series, let yourself go with Untether。 。。。more

Another hot hot read from Elodie Hart!Cal has been a favourite side character through the other books in this series so I thoroughly enjoyed getting to see him shine。There aren't enough age gap stories where the woman is older in this genre, so it was great to see a character like Aida come to life on the page。 She is strong, powerful, beautiful, but faltering after life has dealt her a blow in her 40s (extremely relatable to many I am sure!)Bringing the two together is explosive, and I love the Another hot hot read from Elodie Hart!Cal has been a favourite side character through the other books in this series so I thoroughly enjoyed getting to see him shine。There aren't enough age gap stories where the woman is older in this genre, so it was great to see a character like Aida come to life on the page。 She is strong, powerful, beautiful, but faltering after life has dealt her a blow in her 40s (extremely relatable to many I am sure!)Bringing the two together is explosive, and I love the way Elodie uses the slicy scenes to unlock the characters emotionally and physically。 Am so thrilled there will be more books in this series。 I never want it to end! 。。。more

“Did you just compare my powerful, masculine ejaculation to a bird shitting on a windshield?”Yes, Cal, yes she did。 Untether was a fun easy read featuring everyone’s favorite side character from the previous books in the series。 At times I wish I had more of Cal’s personal growth and gotten to be in his head more (we got a better glimpse in the bonus epilogue with him talking about the boys but I needed more) and at the same time I wish the opposite for Aida。 I wish I had gotten to see more of h “Did you just compare my powerful, masculine ejaculation to a bird shitting on a windshield?”Yes, Cal, yes she did。 Untether was a fun easy read featuring everyone’s favorite side character from the previous books in the series。 At times I wish I had more of Cal’s personal growth and gotten to be in his head more (we got a better glimpse in the bonus epilogue with him talking about the boys but I needed more) and at the same time I wish the opposite for Aida。 I wish I had gotten to see more of her growth in her sexual journey with Cal instead of her just recapping it later in a more proper mindset。 This was a huge part about that journey for her but most of the scenes were in Cals pov。 Don’t get me wrong, I love Cal and appreciate all the hot Cal action I received but just in keeping with seeing them as well rounded characters。 Maybe I just selfishly needed every scrap of Cal possible。 😅🙈🤷🏻‍♀️ Even with that minor nitpick, this book was funny and hot and just enjoyable to read。 There wasn’t any unnecessary drama, though even knowing that I was still waiting for the other shoe to drop half the time。 It was really nice that our beloved Cal just got to get the girl and we got to enjoy that。 Did I also mention this book included Cal? Did I mention I love Cal? I think that speaks for itself。 。。。more

WOW!! I’ve loved Cal since meeting him in Unfurl, but his story is so much more than I expected! Sara Madderson (writing as Elodie Hart) hit a home run with Untether。 Cal is the 4th partner in the exclusive s3x club Alchemy。 He’s watched his friends/partners fall in love and is happily single and happy to carry on as the playboy in the playroom。 Aida is an American journalist who is recently divorced from her English aristocrat husband after his numerous affairs become public。 Tired of being dep WOW!!

It is nice to see Elodie Hart writing about another important topic which is relatable to mature, perimenopausal women who still have a sex drive!

Where the previous books were a bit heavier, focusing more on religious trauma and grief。 This book was a lot lighter, Aida recently went through a divorce。 Her sex life was never very interesting。 But at 46 years old she wanted to explore it further。 She works as a broadcast journalist and she got the opportunity to make a document about her path to reclaim her sexuality。 She got in contact with the exclusive club Alchemy to help her on her journey。 through the unfurl program she got paired up Where the previous books were a bit heavier, focusing more on religious trauma and grief。 This book was a lot lighter, Aida recently went through a divorce。 Her sex life was never very interesting。 But at 46 years old she wanted to explore it further。 She works as a broadcast journalist and she got the opportunity to make a document about her path to reclaim her sexuality。 She got in contact with the exclusive club Alchemy to help her on her journey。 through the unfurl program she got paired up with one of the owners Cal。 Cal is definitely alpha, but also a big cinnamon roll。 Once you start reading you won’t be able to put it down。I love how all the books in this series are very sexpositive, there is a great communication between the characters。 And the women in these book are being empowered to explore their sexuality。⭐️5🌶️4 。。。more

Another excellent installment in the Alchemy series! Elodie has succeeded in writing one of my favorite female main characters, Aida。 She is an absolute boss who accepts nothing less than she deserves, which I absolutely applaud。 After being publicly jilted by her ex, left to parent 2 young boys on her own, and trying to balance a wildly successful media career, she needs to take back the reins of her love life: enter Cal。Cal is co-owner of a premiere sex club, and just the man for the job。 He a Another excellent installment in the Alchemy series!

Thank you to Elodie and the publishers for the opportunity to review this ARC; this review and all opinions are my own。 。。。more

Untether brings the ultimate book boyfriend the Cinnamon roll with an edge of kink。 Then we meet Aida, a woman who speaks directly to this 40-something soul。This book moves away from some of the darker elements of Books 1-3 in the Alchemy Series and in my opinion, crosses the divide between Elodie Hart and her alter ego Sara Madderson, truely Alchemy meets Love in London。

Dilemmas, Dilemmas!What does it say when you want to read a book as fast as you can but also decide you want to take it as slow as possible because you don’t want it to end? Well this is the dilemma I found myself in。 I can tell you it says it’s an incredible book。 Believe me, it is。 Honestly, this is one of my favorite books of 2024。It’s fun, it’s smart, it’s timely, You will laugh, have tears appear in your eyes when you least expect it。 You will definitely swoon, while simultaneously turn on Dilemmas, Dilemmas!What does it say when you want to read a book as fast as you can but also decide you want to take it as slow as possible because you don’t want it to end? Well this is the dilemma I found myself in。 I can tell you it says it’s an incredible book。 Believe me, it is。 Honestly, this is one of my favorite books of 2024。It’s fun, it’s smart, it’s timely, You will laugh, have tears appear in your eyes when you least expect it。 You will definitely swoon, while simultaneously turn on the air conditioning, even though it’s winter。I can picture Cal saying, “Baby it may be cold outside but it’s hot as Hades in here”。The author hit the spot, literally and figuratively, on this one。 The messaging, the branding, and the story pull you all the way in from page one。Fun loving Cal, is beyond fun, feisty, focused, flirty, fervid and fabulously handsome。 He’s a free thinker。 Enter Aida。 She’s smart, stylish, sophisticated, stunning, self motivated and spirited。 She’s also very savvy and sharp。Together Cal and Aida can change attitudes。 However, that’s not all that changes。 No spoilers from me。 You need to enjoy this story for yourself。 First you’ll have to decide do you jump in and stay up all night reading or read slowly and savor every moment and feeling in these pages? I opt for slow。 Revel in all its deliciousness and enjoy the tingly feelings you’ll get as well as the witty banter。Believe me if you’ve read the other books in the series you’ll be happy to know the gangs all here, plus some new ones to add to the dynamics。 If you haven’t read the other books don’t worry your enjoyment won’t be inhibited。 You really should though to enhance this experience。 It’s like adding extra seasoning to intensify the flavor。One area I haven’t commented on is the chapter titles (quotes)。 They are truly thought provoking。 I did a lot of highlighting, which is very unlike me。 I was going to reference them。 Again, I decided you should take it all in yourself。I think you can tell I loved this book。 I don’t know where the author is taking me next but I can’t wait to throw open my mind and enjoy the journey。 I just have to remember to turn on the air conditioning first! 。。。more

Woman Power! There were a lot of things to love about this book! A woman of a certain age regaining her sexual power and confidence; a golden retriever hero who is confident, but never thought an older, powerful, successful career woman would be interested in him; and a big fat FU to the established patriarchy for thinking they can squash females based on their gender alone。 We have all fallen in love with Callum throughout the Alchemy series, and now is his time to shine and show that there is Woman Power! There were a lot of things to love about this book! A woman of a certain age regaining her sexual power and confidence; a golden retriever hero who is confident, but never thought an older, powerful, successful career woman would be interested in him; and a big fat FU to the established patriarchy for thinking they can squash females based on their gender alone。 We have all fallen in love with Callum throughout the Alchemy series, and now is his time to shine and show that there is more to him than a wink and a smile。 When the famous Aida Russell, newswoman extraordinaire, asks Cal to mentor her for a documentary on her sexual reawakening, nobody expects the pair to fall in love—least of all Cal and Aida。 As Cal puts Aida through her paces at the Alchemy sex club, he can’t help offering the tenderness that Aida responds so beautifully to。 And Aida is so starved for affection and adult attention that she can’t help falling hard for Cal’s magic。 I adored this book and Elodie Hart's message throughout the story。 It was powerful without feeling like I’d been hit over the head with a message。 And this book was schmexy as all get out! I loved it! 。。。more

Are you a spicy book connoisseur? Looking to level it up? Then this book, and the rest of the series is for you。Cal is a smoke show; his confidence and charisma hits the right spot。 And, AND! He is a winker (possible new kink unlocked?)Aida is a fierce boss lady and I am here for it。 She a commanding force and when she sets her mind to something she sees it through。 Elodie is the queen of the best filth and the prose is elegant, powerfully descriptive and so so lush。

That man! Wow, does he come through。 Not only is he exactly the unfettered, explicit boytoy we were all expecting, he is the king of making his queen feel untethered and cherished。 And he does it all while tackling his own desires and needs。 His recognition of what he and Aida have together, how it’s unique and precious and exactly what he truly craves, is beautiful to witness。Maybe it's the menopausal 50-something-year-old in me, but I loved seeing the heroine take center stage。 This is a love story between Cal and Aida—and Cal is the Alchemy connection, the character readers have been itching for—but make no mistake, she is the star。 And he is the swoon-worthy, successful, confident hero who puts her on the pedestal she's earned and makes her the center of his world。 Exactly as she should be, and exactly as he wants her to feel。At its very core, Untether is about letting go and learning to trust。 It’s about identifying and owning your own needs, then finding, accepting, and empowering the perfect person to help you understand what they are and how to achieve them。 Well, mission accomplished。 Because at the end of this story I truly felt seen, valued, and understood。 And that is a feeling that will stick with me long after the story has ended, the book closed, and the review written。 Untether is part of the Alchemy series and can be read as a standalone, but I highly recommend starting with book one (Unfurl) for a full understanding of how Alchemy works and the characters involved。 。。。more

This book was a lot more light-hearted, heavy on the sexual chemistry (I mean, come on, it's Cal we're talking about here 🥵), and an easy romance between Aida and Cal。 One thing I do wish for would have been to see a little more from Cal。 I feel like we got to know Aida so well, but Cal never really came out of his "fun sexy guy" box。 Overall, a really fun easy read!I received an ARC from this author, all thoughts and reviews are my own。 Download this book on February 8th! 。。。more

Aida and Cal。。 the Alchemy book I didn’t even know I needed。 I loved that I could connect to the professionally driven mom with a cesarean scar that needed to be shown how amazing she is and how important she is when she feels that sense of loss of identity。 This book went so far beyond the spice for me, to really drive home an incredible message。 Now, that’s not to say that the spice wasn’t there… because it’s there and it’s 🔥🔥。 Untether has it all, spice, romance, humor, and a strong message r Aida and Cal。。 the Alchemy book I didn’t even know I needed。 I loved that I could connect to the professionally driven mom with a cesarean scar that needed to be shown how amazing she is and how important she is when she feels that sense of loss of identity。 This book went so far beyond the spice for me, to really drive home an incredible message。 Now, that’s not to say that the spice wasn’t there… because it’s there and it’s 🔥🔥。 Untether has it all, spice, romance, humor, and a strong message reminding you that you can be a mom, a business women and anything else… while also being YOU and giving into all your desires。 Elodie Hart keeps surprising me as her Alchemy series continues to have amazing story lines, spice and so much more。 If you haven’t read any of them before… what are you waiting for!? 。。。more

Okay where to even start? I purposely took my time reading this one, I’ve been in love with the alchemy series since Unfurl, Undulate still has my heart though, there’s just something about zach with all his disapproval and ‘she will be the death of me’ attitude mixed with wild maddy that gets me。Cal though, I have been SO excited for his story, I just knew with all his ego it was going to be a fun one。 He sure met his match with Aida, the 46 year old renowned British Broadcast Journalist ready Okay where to even start? I purposely took my time reading this one, I’ve been in love with the alchemy series since Unfurl, Undulate still has my heart though, there’s just something about zach with all his disapproval and ‘she will be the death of me’ attitude mixed with wild maddy that gets me。Cal though, I have been SO excited for his story, I just knew with all his ego it was going to be a fun one。 He sure met his match with Aida, the 46 year old renowned British Broadcast Journalist ready to reclaim her sexuality in documentary form after her cheating ex husbands exploits had been splashed all over the media。 The documentary is her journey through the Unfurl programme at Alchemy, Londons most exclusive sex club, Cal is of course the perfect man for the job so is appointed as her ‘mentor’ through the programme。 She is smart, sexy, commands a room (although her knees buckle a bit when Cal is in said room🫠) and knows exactly what she wants while discovering what she needs。Cal is 36, hilarious and is one of the four co-founders of Alchemy。 He’s a happy go lucky guy who oozes child like spirit, always having fun but also very domineering which is ultimately the perfect book boyfriend, right? He was so great all the way through that it was impossible not to love him, I do not blame either of them for how hard they fell。 Cal has always been one of my favourites throughout the whole series and he exceeded my expectations in his book。Elodie/Sara’s writing is so smart and beautiful, I’ve read many of her books now and I’ve loved every single one of them。 Untether is yet another perfect example of why she is one of my auto buy authors and why everyone needs to pick up one of her books (although warning it’s addicting🤪)。Rafe, Zach❤️, Gen, Cal, Belle, Maddy, Anton & Aida ALL have my entire heart。 Perfect, is the only way to sum up the Alchemy series。 。。。more

Oh Elodie!!! This book is chefs kiss。 I felt I could relate to Aida in my own life。 It’s a good reminder that just cuz we’re getting older we’re not dead yet and that it’s okay to like seggsy time。 Amazing story as always!!!!

Cal。。。oh Cal。。。I cannot tell you how surprised I was by how much I loved Cal。 And Aida as well。 Cal ended up being the perfect book boyfriend。 Being a woman of "a certain age" myself, I found I was really surprised though by how much I identified with Aida and her journey to find the sexual being still inside her。 It resonated with me in a way that I am still thinking about now。 She is a strong, powerful and successful woman who has lost something inside herself。 I've loved all the Alchemy books Cal。。。oh Cal。。。I cannot tell you how surprised I was by how much I loved Cal。 And Aida as well。 Cal ended up being the perfect book boyfriend。 Being a woman of "a certain age" myself, I found I was really surprised though by how much I identified with Aida and her journey to find the sexual being still inside her。 It resonated with me in a way that I am still thinking about now。 She is a strong, powerful and successful woman who has lost something inside herself。 I've loved all the Alchemy books and have found something to love in every one of them。 I think that says everything about Elodie Hart's writing style and what keeps me coming back to her books。 5 Star book! 。。。more

In previous books Cal has come across as more of a happy go lucky kind of guy, but in this unforgettable read, we learn he is so much more。 He thinks he isn't built for forever until he gets to know Aida。 He is such a fantastic match for her。 Aida is such a strong heroine with a beautiful vulnerable side。 This book has an incredible mix of banter and deeply emotional at the same time。 The spice is top notch, but its the friendships that really make this book special。 In previous books Cal has come across as more of a happy go lucky kind of guy, but in this unforgettable read, we learn he is so much more。 He thinks he isn't built for forever until he gets to know Aida。 He is such a fantastic match for her。 Aida is such a strong heroine with a beautiful vulnerable side。 This book has an incredible mix of banter and deeply emotional at the same time。 The spice is top notch, but its the friendships that really make this book special。 。。。more

It took me a while before I started reading this amazing series as I felt it would be too raunchy for me and I was right - it was! However, it was too addictive to stop! I absolutely loved the first book and they kept on getting better and this one is proof of that, it really is the best of the series。We’ve all been waiting for Cal’s story and all I can say is it most definitely doesn’t disappoint!

However, it was too addictive to stop! I absolutely loved the first book and they kept on getting better and this one is proof of that, it really is the best of the series。We’ve all been waiting for Cal’s story and all I can say is it most definitely doesn’t disappoint! He is sextacular, charismatic and so much fun。 Aida Russel’s fifteen year marriage has ended in divorce, following her husband’s infidelity being splashed over the news papers。 Rather than hide from the world she decides to embrace her new found freedom and find out what she’s been missing in the bedroom during her marriage, as it was greatly lacking in o’s! As a celebrity she decides to make a documentary about it and uses the professional expertise of Alchemy’s Unfurl programme and in doing so help other women of a similar age/circumstance to take learning on what’s available to them rather than shrinking their lives they can grow them in so many ways, should they choose to。 Cal is her mentor and boy does he show her how her husband’s infidelity has done her a massive favour。 As with all of Elodie’s books it also broaches important topics which are experienced by many but not often openly discussed (e。g。 the hidden delights of peri menopause)。 I am over the moon this series will continue and look forward to the next book。 。。。more

I highly recommend this book and the series too! 。。。more

this was a fun good time and i love that for cal's book!I love the female empowering concept in this book which is an ongoing theme in the series but it felt more in this one。 Whilst I enjoy this book and Unveil, I found them less relatable compared to the first two books purely due to age。 BUT that just proves this series can be enjoyed by a wide range of people and I love that! thank you elodie for providing me with ARC! this was a fun good time and i love that for cal's book!I love the female empowering concept in this book which is an ongoing theme in the series but it felt more in this one。 Whilst I enjoy this book and Unveil, I found them less relatable compared to the first two books purely due to age。 BUT that just proves this series can be enjoyed by a wide range of people and I love that! thank you elodie for providing me with ARC! 。。。more
