Publisher's summary

They say good things come to those who wait.

Bulls--t!

My whole life has been about waiting. Playing it safe. Be the good girl, don’t color outside the lines. Put in the hard work trying to prove myself to Dad, then to my college professors, then to my boss at New World Media. Just waiting for the day when it will all pay off.

And right when it was all starting to - I finally had the house, the job, I was even thinking about getting a cat - boom! - my life explodes and suddenly now I’m here and -

“All done,” the doctor interrupts my thoughts, pulling off her gloves with a loud snap.

Even from the bed where I’m lying, my legs spread like the Thanksgiving turkey, I can hear the impatient growl of the man standing in the doorway. If you can even call him a man. More like a beast out of a friggin’ fairytale. “Well?”

Her pronouncement echoes throughout the room while the speculum is still inside me. “She’s a virgin.”

Intended for mature audience. Steamy romance with dark themes.

INTERVIEW WITH THE AUTHOR:

Q - Where did you get the idea for this book?
A - Who doesn’t love a Beauty and the Beast story? I’ve been in love with this fairytale since I was a kid and read all sorts of different variations on it. Now that I’m grown up, well, I couldn’t help but imagining some darker twists and turns the story could take. A tortured hero, kidnap, and a girl falling for her captor - hello, this is the stuff dark romance is made of!

Q - Why should I read this book?
A - I write the kind of books I love to read, which is dark romantic erotica. I want stories that steam things up in the bedroom but not if those scenes don’t go hand in hand with three-dimensional characters, can’t-stop-flipping-the-pages suspense, and quality writing. I like alpha males, (doesn’t hurt if they happen to be billionaires)!, bad boys, BDSM, contemporary, urban settings, and fiction where women can be strong while also exploring all sides of their sexuality. My favorite books are ones that dare to go into the darkest and most taboo places in the human psychological experience, leaving you wrung out on the other end.

From start to finish great!

For starters, I loved the narrators voice. I felt like even if the book was terrible, her voice would make it okay. The book was just as good. I tried 4 books before this and felt like maybe I’m in a stooper and can’t get interested in a book for very long. Very glad I came across this book.

My only complaint… it wasn’t long enough ;) I could listen to 10 more hours.

Excellent job to the writer and the narrator!

A good read

Love the storyline, the location and the involvement of daily care of horses, and how horses are very healing to those that love and care for them. I struggled some what with the narrator, which I believe I would’ve enjoyed the book more if I just read it.

Great story

This had ot all. Great story. Great characters. Great narration. What more can I say except this is a keeper to listen to to in the future. Loved it
Could not put it down. It flowed right. Not over winded like some books. I never had to fast forward. Get this one, you won't regret it. If submissive behavior is not your thing you will haye it till you understand why H is the way he is. Thanks.

Cowboy master

If you like BDSM, you will enjoy this. The narrator has changed and some parts re-written, and it truly is a massive improvement. Fans of Stasia Black will love it. Also, it deals with PTSD, living with a disfigurment, survivors guilt. It was so touching.

what... just... happened??

I honestly don't know how I feel right now. That was A LOT. I may need therapy to process how I'm feeling about this? I liked the story overall but.... there were moments I wasn't so sure I'd be able finish the book. Be aware, some of the scenes can be triggering.

Not really a BDSM book

I enjoyed this book. The plot was inventive and the characters were well drawn. It's not about BDSM so much as D/S, although the whole relationship and the sex have a degree of "vanilla" (hot vanilla), and the book does not revolve around the nature of the characters’ sexual relationship. The narrator did an excellent job with Xavier's voice.
