About this listen
Addiction is a bonus short story in the Explicitly Yours Series. It should be enjoyed at the end of the series or any time after book 2, Domination. Find out from Beau's POV what really happened that night ten years ago...
It's ten years earlier and the night that changed everything. When Beau Olivier signs a contract that will deliver the first millions of his future fortune, all he wants is to celebrate with a beautiful woman, and no strings attached.
He enters Cat Shoppe on the Sunset Strip looking for anyone, but when he sees the kitten-eared girl on the strip club's main stage, he knows he won't leave without her.

Story
When he invited me to join him for a drink, I thought Alessandro was an ordinary guest at my family's hotel. I didn't know I belonged to him until he told me right there in the restaurant. I thought I had a say in the matter. But when I stood up to leave, it just earned me a sore bottom for the plane ride to New York, where our wedding was already planned for the next day. But I was soaking wet for him before he even walked me down the aisle.

Story
It was a hot summer day when I met him on the construction site next to my parents' house. Under the sweat and dirt, Manning Sutter was as handsome as the sun was bright. He was older, darker, experienced. I wore a smiley-face t-shirt and had never even been kissed. I was too young, he said. I would wait. But I'd learn that no matter what you achieve in life, it means nothing if you suffer the heartbreak that comes with falling for someone you can never have. Because even though I saw Manning first, that didn't matter. My older sister saw him next.

Story
When my stepbrother, Elec, came to live with us my senior year, I wasn’t prepared for how much of a jerk he’d be. I hated that he took it out on me because he didn’t want to be here. I hated that he brought girls from our high school back to his room. But what I hated the most was the unwanted way my body reacted to him. At first, I thought all he had going for him were his rock-hard tattooed abs and chiseled face. But things started changing between us, and it all came to a head one night.

But the longer she watches the man known only as Lucas, on the station surveillance camera, the more intrigued she becomes.

I can't get enough of this series. Especially Christian Fox's performance. Wish MS Hawkins made this longer. But still, thanks for the novella.

What an insight to Beau’s brain!! 4.5 stars!
If you’re reading thins novella I figure it’s safe to assume you’ve read the proceeding books so this will give no spoilers. Christian Fox has quickly become one of my favorite narrators who was introduced to me by an also new author to me Jessica Hawkins.
I truly häted Beau at the end of book two. Not the shake my head at the bullies antics dislike but in a whole ärse ‘nother level HÄTED him! This short story helped me understand how he could be so cruel and where the impetuous came from. I understand.
All in all, a great necessary addition to the story as we needed to see their origins story to understand the why. Short and sweet & very informative. Cheers!
