Reputable Surrender

He ruined all her grand plans of ignoring him when he came back a hard and hot Master... After mysteriously missing for over two months, the vanilla man of Catherine Woods' not so vanilla dreams turns up at her front door. The news he shares is too incredible to believe, but if she wants to work with him and verify it as fact, he requires her to agree to one thing. "I'll be the man you need me to be. I'm prepared to explore your deepest, darkest fantasies. I want to take you down, put you on your knees, so I can lift you up and praise you after you've pleased me. I'm prepared to fight for the right to do this. You've been the ghost in my bed long enough. It's time you came out of the shadows. It's not going to be easy. It's not going to be gentle or nice, but we both know that's not what does it for you. This is." When she saw the metal collar precariously hanging over two of his fingers, a hot thrill zinged through her. "You've been searching for a place." The steel glinted in the porch light as it slowly swung to and fro. "And here it is. Right where I want you. Wrapped around my fingers." Catherine was prepared for a great many things when Jude Wilde returned, but none of those things included him being transformed into a hard and hot Master. When he was an arrogant, vanilla jerk she could turn him away. Now? Now she wasn't sure whether she was agreeing to be his because she wanted to verify inconceivable facts, or experience the kind of hard he was offering. Jude had been to hell and back. He'd survived and now he was ready to live the kind of life that mattered...with her. He was tired of being haunted by the past he and Cat never got the chance to create. The here and now, that's what he was after. Well that, and a chance at making her his before he needed to tell her the truth. By then, hopefully it would be too late for her to hate him. The only question that remained was would she ever forgive the man who forced her to sacrifice the sister she'd just reconnected with, for the greater good?"I hate you." She growled low in her throat before she bit his shoulder. "No you don't." He let the weight of his body pin her tightly to the wall as he crushed his hips into her. Rocking. Pressing. Grinding. "I...I do." He smiled against the warm and fragrant skin of her neck, whispering, "Hate me some more, pretty girl. Despise me." When her nails raked his back as she wrapped her legs around him, he let out a satisfied breath. This is what he needed. This is what he wanted. "Beg me. Beg me to fuck you hard."

Pushed

A man on a mission to discover the truth and a woman who wants to bury it... Greyson Maddox is looking at a much deserved early retirement. It's probably why he's determined to complete this last assignment and protect her, without any complications. Peyton Thomas has accounted for the dangerous obstacles to present themselves. All she has to do is wait for the triggering events to happen, before she puts her plans into action to overcome them. But when the threats arrive, neither one of them is prepared for the possible life changing events that follow... From having to hide out in a kink-inspired resort, to being kidnapped and taken to Mexico, they have no one but each other to rely on. And when they forge an explosive bond, it's an eye-opening experience for the Dom who has long since scratched vanilla off his list of preferences, and an intimate journey for a vanilla woman who never imagined she'd come to crave the kind of different, a man like him has to offer. Their seamless connection is undeniable, even as it makes everything they have to face going forward, more difficult. Because only one of them knows, while the steadily escalating stakes are drawing them closer together, the inevitable truth to be uncovered will surely tear them apart. This is when they both learn the hard way that sometimes forgiveness is not enough...

Required Surrender

When a museum executive secretary, who barely tolerates men, has a run in with an infamous BDSM Master, Neil Cannon, a man who lives to discipline women, there's little she can do about it. Why? The Master thinks Charlotte, a.k.a Charlie, is her kink-loving, totally outrageous, and continually stirring-up-trouble twin sister. And after what Charlie just did, he has to keep thinking that. At least until she can find a way to climb out of the huge mess her well-meaning intentions have landed her in. She'll take the punishments the Master intends for her twin.

Or so he thought until she turns out to be different than what he expected her to be. She starts pushing buttons he didn't know he had. She's flipping internal switches, lighting things up, creating a whole new level of dominant need he's determined to explore, enjoy, and satisfy. Unfortunately, before either of them can get a handle on the D/s chemistry exploding between them, she takes off. It's then he discovers that she's invited a part of his past, that he's promised to steer clear of, right to his front door. Now, in order to keep her safe, he must find her, and when he does he has to keep her close. Too close for either one of them to escape the inevitable truth. "Sometimes the best pleasures in life are found at the end of a person's comfort zone," whispered the Master to the one woman he's dead set on collaring...
