As Mistress Selina, she can bring any man to his knees without so much as a crack of her whips. A taboo one-night stand at a friends wedding with Jason becomes so much more than she bargained for. Jason Sinclair, is the dominant alpha male sex club owner and king of kink in the London sex scene. Rich and possessive, he secretly buys the club where she works to protect what he sees as his.

Opening her up to what the future could hold with a potential life of hedonistic heaven together. Or could one fantasy have been too far? Can the two super kinky souls really settle down together? As much as Sam dreams of a happily ever after, she’s much too realistic and can’t seem to shake the dark clouds of doubt rolling in. Is the promise of domestic bliss bound to be cursed from day one or does the King of Kink have more tricks up his sleeve? Grace - Surprise is the understatement of the year and it hits Sam and Jason like a freight train. Rocked and shocked, Sam needs to determine if this is a really good surprise, because as much as she loves Jason, any future they may have together could be doomed if he’s not 100 percent all-in.

Jason Sinclair will stop at nothing to protect the woman he loves and keep her safe and shielded when ghosts of her brutal past rear their ugly head.
