Crash into Me


K.M. Scott - 2013
    And he wore it all so well. From the moment his mesmerizing gaze met mine, I had no choice but surrender to everything he was. His power. His decadence. His passion.

The world he gave me fulfilled my wildest dreams, but would that be enough when the past crashed into the present?

His Contract


Rebecca Grace Allen - 2015

Until he meets a young woman with shadows in her eyes even darker than his own. Once a shining star at law school, Lilly Sterling’s dreams died when the Dom she trusted left her heartbroken and lost. She’s starting fresh in a new city as a paralegal, but meeting Jack reawakens all her old demons—and her lingering desires.

The Big Bad Office Wolf


May Sage - 2017
     Bryant is a menace, making every woman in the entire building lose focus, but she never thought he would actually go after her assistant. Determined to save the poor girl from his clutches, she confronts him, and finds herself thrust in a world she never knew existed. Bryant should stay away from the sweet little prim and proper thing wrapped in designer suits, but he’s had a taste and he can’t seem to forget it. He knows there’s no way he can even pretend to be satisfied with a vanilla relationship. Good thing that when the clothes and the attitude come off, Tori might very well be a sub. All he needs is to lead her down the rabbit hole… Disclaimer: The big bad office wolf is a very steamy romance, more so than most of my books. As the description suggests, it also includes some BDSM element. Spare panties recommended.
