At Her Command, an all-new not to missed BDSM romance from award winning author Joey W. Hill is out now!

Template


Getting a man on his knees isn’t a problem. To Rosalinda Thomas, it’s an opportunity…
Ros doesn’t accept excuses for falling short. Particularly not from herself. As CEO of a successful New Orleans marketing firm, she knows how to bring quality to the top. The same way she knows how to get it from the men who serve her in the bedroom.
Lawrence has been a SEAL since his teens. He doesn’t know how to be a civilian. So when being a SEAL is no longer an option for him, he accepts a security job at Thomas Rose Associates to keep his edge. But from the moment he sees Rosalinda, his deep need to serve gets redefined. 

He’s never belonged to a Mistress. Ros is about to change that.

Meet the Mistresses of Thomas Rose Associates. An intimate circle of women who embrace the challenge of domination—inside the bedroom and the board room.

Excerpt:
“Show me respect, the way you feel it.” Ros leaned forward in her chair, increasing the power of the lock between their eyes. “The way YOU feel it,” she repeated. For a nice, long simmering pause in the universe, Lawrence’s gaze didn’t leave hers. Slowly, he backed the chair enough to give him room. He didn’t look around to see who was watching him—first test passed. Then he went to one knee in front of her. He put his hand under the purple sole of her shoe, the other curving over her calf. The heated palm slid against her skin as a gradual glide, a man not rushing anything, taking in the sensation. He eased her leg upward, straightening it from its crossed position. Dipping his head, he pressed his mouth to her flesh, a few inches above the silver leaf design molded around her ankle. A kiss, a tasting. Cherishing, worshipping. Then he added a touch of teeth. Claiming. Electric current passed from that contact to the hairline at her nape, and all the right places in between. She laid her hand on his bowed head, fingers and knuckles capturing and stroking the short thickness of his hair. She let herself trace it around his ear, to the pulse point just beneath it. A steady thud, like war drums, focused, intent. Powerful. There was a subtle vibration to his muscles, a faint trembling. The nerves of a sub who’d made his first step. She thought of that tremor as the collision between the mind’s “what-the-hell” and the heart and soul’s whoop of “you-go-boy.” He lifted his gaze to hers, his mouth still on her. She saw fire, darkness, desire. It made her lips move against one another, a moistening that had his fingers tightening as he saw it. What was it she’d been told about him? *SEALs are trained to notice everything, and evaluate and adapt accordingly.* The energy pulsing between them was more than enough for her to channel, twist and play with it, turn it into something even more marvelous. She looked forward to it.




I was so excited when I learnt that Joey W Hill had a new series coming out and I jumped at the opportunity to read and review. I was even more intrigued when I learnt the name of the series. This is Rosalinda (Ros) Thomas and Lawrence Barrera Gatlin’s and oh what a fabulous story it was.
Both Ros and Lawrence, a former Seal are strong, commanding characters with a great deal of honour and integrity. Ros is a Mistress in every sense of the word and it was riveting to watch as Lawrence acknowledged his need to serve Ros. The road they travel is long, winding and bumpy, but they do eventually get there. 
Although At Her Command is predominately about a BDSM and D/s relationship, to me it was a love story, one of courage, and sheer determination.The scenes are hot, yet emotional, drawing the reader in so much that you almost feel that you are witnessing it first hand. The roller coaster of emotions that Joey W Hill brought to this book is amazing. It was an emotional journey not only for Ros and Lawrence, but for the reader as well.

This book, was well written and held me captive from the first page to the last. A wonderful beginning to an exciting new series and I look forward to reading more.

Blog Tour: Vampire Master by Joey W. Hill.

Master - BT banner

“This is one hell of a writer.”—Angela Knight, New York Times bestselling author

Vampire Master, an all-new paranormal romance that brings the heat from bestselling author Joey W. Hill, is available now!

Vampire-Master-Cover
Big and bad enough to be any girl’s nightmare—or her best dream ever…
Beyond your grasp. Those are the three words that come to mind, every time Ella sees Wolf at Club Atlantis. He earns the term Master, in and out of scene, yet there is something deeper and darker about him. She wants to dive into that abyss.
Wolf sees the yearning. But the submissive he ultimately claims will become his servant, soul-bound to him for all eternity. Ella is a natural submissive, with an endless desire to please. She’s perfect for the role, really. Except Ella is a gift he doesn’t deserve.
However, vampires are wired one way—to take what they want, no matter what their conscience tells them. Even Wolf isn’t strong enough to resist his nature . . . or the salvation Ella’s love offers.

Excerpt
She turned toward the door, a light smile pasted on her face. He wore a gold-colored T-shirt and blue jeans. Though the shirt was untucked, she had no doubt he was wearing a belt. He’d pretty much branded that fashion accessory in her brain for the rest of her life. His shaved head gleamed in the soft light, adding shadows to the chiseled features and sparks to the silver gaze. It slid over her, head to toe. “I need to know your boundaries,” he said, before she could say anything. “Are you a sub in here?" With you, I'm always a sub. She didn’t say it, but she suspected it was obvious on her face, from the flicker in his eyes, the flex in his jaw. But she found her words. “Yes, if that’s what you want. If you don’t, I’m just a massage therapist, helping you with problem areas. You can treat me the same way you’d treat a normal masseuse. Or you can treat me as both at once. It’s up to you.” “Both sound good.” He stepped over the threshold. In the cozy little space, he seemed even bigger. She normally maintained a respectful distance from him, which gave her room to gauge what he was wanting. In these close quarters, she had to tip her face up to look at him. She didn’t often look up into a Dom's face until given permission, but in this situation, she felt like he wanted her to do it. He wanted her to feel that difference in size and strength, how much bigger he was than her. She wet her lips. “Is what I’m wearing acceptable, sir?” “For the moment. I’d like you to lose the shorts, though. Wear just the shirt and panties. No bra.” He glanced at himself. “How about me? What do you need me to wear to do this right?” Despite a BDSM club being less modest than other venues, she usually gave clients a little speech to put them at ease about their weight or any other perceived physical flaws. It went something like, “There’s no need for any self-consciousness. During a massage, I don't see the body; I see muscles.” There was no way she could say that to Wolf with a straight face, so she redacted that line in her head before it made it anywhere close to her lips. “You’ve never had a massage?” “No.” That knowledge helped her click back into her role, pull together some of the focus that his presence had scattered so effectively. “Well, it’s up to you. Most guests prefer to be completely unclothed so there’s no impediment to the massage, but if you prefer to leave on underwear, I can work with that, no problem. I do put a heated sheet over you as a cover, and I only fold it back from the area I’m working on.” “I tend to run hot. Is having the cover a requirement?” “Not really. You’ll be lying on a heated pad, which helps the muscle relaxation, but I can take the heated blanket off the top entirely after a couple minutes, if you prefer that.” “Okay, then.” He pulled off his T-shirt, the stretch of his muscled upper torso capturing her gaze and not letting it go. The arch of his body was exaggerated because, in the small space, he had to straighten his arms more than normally would be necessary, to keep from rapping her with his elbows. Her palms itched to press against the ripple of chest and abdomen muscles, the sides of his waist. All well within reach. Just as she’d known, he was wearing a belt. When he started to unbuckle the plain silver buckle, she turned to busy herself elsewhere. “Look at me, Ella. You have my permission.” Treat it like a session, she thought. A session that any Dom could request from her, that she could approve or not. Though the wisdom of not engaging with him was starting to become painfully clear, she knew she wouldn’t refuse him. No matter the plea echoing in her mind, her heart. Don’t let me get pulled so deeply into him. Don’t let me get trapped in that lonely sea of finding everything I want there, but nothing that wants me back.






This is one of my all time favourite series and I was excited to be given a chance to read an ARC of this book.

Nobody writes characters that need so much work like Joey W Hill. Welcome to Club Atlantis where dreams can and do come true. Wolf is a Master Dom in every way, working at Club Atlantis, he is also a vampire and that is where complications arise.

Elle also works at the club, is naturally submissive and is attracted to Wolf, but he knows that the submissive he claims will become his servant and be bound to him for eternity, as is the vampire way.

Despite all the reasons to stay away from Elle, Wolf is tempted beyond reason. I loved the friendship between Elle and Gideon, he was not only her friend, but he help her understand the vampire way. This story has so many layers, it was like peeling an onion and watching has each layer was revealed.

It was also great to see some of my favourite people from the series make an appearance. Although a stand alone, you may get more enjoyment if you have read the previous books. 
I loved this book; Vampire Master was at times a hard and distressing story to read, and although predominately about a BDSM and D/s relationship, to me it was a love story, one of courage, and sheer determination to come from a world of darkness into the light.

The scenes are hot, yet emotional, drawing the reader in so much that you almost feel that you are witnessing it first hand.The road they travel to get to their HEA is long, winding and bumpy, but they do eventually get there. 


This book, as expected, was well written and held me captive from the first page to the last. A wonderful addition to one of the best series I have read and I look forward to reading more in this series. 5 Stars all the way.

Excerpt

In The Problem with Witches, two popular characters from Joey W. Hill’s contemporary Knights of the Board Room series cross paranormal lines to join Mikhael and Raina of In the Company of Witches, in an attempt to save the city of New Orleans…
* * *
Drip, drip, drip.
Just a leaky pipe, he told himself, shrugging it off. Ben glanced at his watch. He’d told Marcie he’d run late tonight, so when he got home, he anticipated finding her on the small nook balcony of their Garden District home. She’d be nested into the wrought iron garden chair she’d repainted a cheerful blue and placed amid the forest of blooming potted bougainvillea there. She’d have a glass of wine at her elbow, her sneakered feet propped on the rail. Her lovely face would be creased in concentration, strands of her silky blond hair framing her delicate features as she studied for the police academy exams. He tried to curb his demanding appetites while she was in study mode, which was part of why he’d chosen to work late, but pinning her to the wall and taking her hard before he fixed them a late dinner qualified as restraint for him.
He’d probably want her once more when they finally went to bed, but she wouldn’t be studying then. Or when he woke at the 3am witching hour, which he often did. His beautiful submissive would murmur in her sleep, open to him, give him all of herself, as she took all of him, and then slip back into dreams, drawing him with her. His good witch, with her own special magic to counter the darkness of the bad stuff that disturbed his sleep in the middle of the night. He—
Drip, drip, drip.
Damn it. Ben paused, his brow furrowing. He tracked every foot of the parking deck, looking for the source. It was one thing to hear dripping from the eaves in the aftermath of a rain shower. They hadn’t had rain in three days, and this drip was like the leak from a rusty pipe, something heard underground. He didn’t like it.
Two vehicles were on the top covered level of their parking deck, the McLaren and Lucas’s Outback, since he’d biked home this afternoon, the maniac.
Only two cars, but the parking deck wasn’t empty.
Ben didn’t carry a gun. He was glad as hell his wife carried and knew how to use the concealed Glock she favored. But he’d learned to fight and survive without one. Had killed without one. The ability to handle a situation with wits and whatever weapons were close to hand was a skillset he’d never abandon. Never wanted to get out of the habit.
It came in handy when a couple of assholes were trying to corner him on his own parking deck at work.
“If you don’t come out of the shadows, the security cams can’t show me kicking your asses on YouTube. I’ve had a long day, I’ve got a beautiful woman waiting on me at home, and a good sirloin. So show yourselves, let’s get this done, or fuck off.”
The shadows to the right moved. Ben set down the briefcase and put his car at his back. As soon as the cameras did show whoever was approaching him, the alert team Kensington & Associates employed would be on their way to clean up what he left in a crumpled mess on the concrete. The cameras should have already tracked what he was dealing with, but apparently the bastards had knocked out a couple lights on that side.
The big son of a bitch who emerged wasn’t what Ben was expecting. He wore a cowboy hat, for fuck’s sake. He also carried a white ash staff, very Gandalf-like, that didn’t blend with the worn jeans and dark blue button down he wore. But it did work with his boots, which might have been snake or alligator skin but was neither, at least no species Ben had ever seen. The scales were bronze and silver, with tinges of iridescent color. The guy wasn’t wearing them as a fashion accessory. They were scuffed, well-used.
His face was lined and rugged. Maybe forty-something, until you reached the steel-blue eyes, and then Ben thought he was looking at someone—or something—way beyond room for candles on his birthday cake. Unless the expanse of buttercream frosting was the size of a football field.
The set of the guy’s mouth and jaw said cop to Ben, no matter the odd get-up. Too often in his youth, Ben had been on the opposite side of the law, so that cop-vibe was another instinct that never went away. Yeah, he got the irony. Ben’s own wife was studying to join the blue line. God help him.
Asshole number two stepped into the light a few feet away from Cowboy Gandalf. This one had the same cop vibe, was also tall and broad-shouldered, though he presented himself quite differently. His black suit was a Brioni bespoke, Ben was certain of it, a four- or five-figure investment. No Lord of the Rings staff for this one, but there was an odd energy vibrating around him.
His gaze was so dark Ben couldn’t detect pupil from iris, as if that wasn’t eerie as fuck. The guy’s hair was dark, thick and silky, yet there was nothing pretty boy about the eyes. That darkness ranked up there with vampire movie effects, not so easy to laugh off in the middle of the night.
But he’d faced a lot scarier things.
“Getting bored,” he said sharply. “I do have office hours. What do you want?”
“A voodoo priestess named Elagra Bluebird Jones,” said Cowboy Gandalf.
Okay, that was one of the scarier things.
It was perhaps the last thing Ben would expect someone to say to him. Yet it wasn’t a surprise to hear it, because somewhere way deep down in his gut, he’d always known he’d have to deal with her again.
Out of all the disturbing things that woke him at 3am, one of them actually was a witch.

Release Blast: Vampire's Embrace (Vampire Queen Series 15) by Joey W. Hill

Vampire's Embrace

Vampire Queen Series 15

by  Joey W. Hill

 

Blurb

Nina's twin sister Sher has been groomed to be an Inherited Servant since she
was six years old. At twenty-eight, she will be given to a vampire of the Council's
choosing and serve him up to 300 years. While Sher insists that Nina is no less
service-oriented than herself, Nina does not see any correlation between her
own desire to pursue a career as a nurse and her sister's to be the slave of a
blue-blooded vampire, where she is allowed no will or dreams of her own.
It's 1941 and Nina signs up to serve with the Australian Army Nurses Service in
Singapore. What happens to her when the city falls to the Japanese will shatter
Nina all the way to the soul. But fate seems determined to give her more than
she can bear. When her sister dies in a car crash, Nina is informed that she must
take her place as an InhServ. She will be given to Lord Alistair, a vampire who
sees Nina as his property, to do with as he pleases.
Even as she rages against her fate, she is baffled at Alistair's insistence on
having her as his servant. Especially when the Council offers the Queensland
Region Master the option of another InhServ with all the proper training to
support his political needs. But that's not the most confusing thing about her new
Master. The ways in which he commands her surrender to him leads her to a
terrifyingly different understanding of her will and her dreams. By binding herself
to him, can she become whole again, but in a way she never expected?

Release Blitz: Truly Helpless by Joey W. Hill

Being truly helpless is the only thing that can save him. But it’s the one thing he’s not willing to do.
Marius has all the things a Mistress could want in a one-night-sub encounter. Hot body, loads of charm and a willingness to get her off in any way she pleases. That’s his reputation at The Zone. But Marius has a dark side. When a Mistress pushes him for something deeper, he’ll push back, mess with her head. When he takes it too far one night, The Zone management has had enough. He’s kicked out of the club and there’s only one way back in—Lady Regina.
Regina’s been studying Marius for a while. She enjoys her submissives in all flavors, and she likes them challenging, though not usually the “knight-in-distress” type, so screwed up she’d need a backhoe to dig him out of his dysfunctions. But on that pivotal night, she sees something in Marius. He doesn’t know what it means to be truly helpless to a Mistress, but he needs it, more than any sub she’s ever encountered. And that’s a challenge this Mistress can’t resist.

Excerpt

Background: Regina is tending Marius after he competes in an illegal fight…

She stepped back. “You’ll do. I suppose you know a hot shower when you get home is the best remedy, on top of the ibuprofen you just took. Though I’d highly recommend a tetanus update and having your head examined.”
He kept staring at her. He wanted to make her nervous with his silence. Tough luck with that, boy, she thought. You want to self-gag, it doesn’t bother me.
Answering in kind, she tossed one final wipe into the trash and headed for the door. Embracing her Mistress side meant understanding there was an energy flow between Dom and sub once a connection was made, even if the connection was the rope in a tug of war. She rode that energy how it was meant to be ridden, not forcing her own expectations on it. It worked better that way. She’d accomplished what mattered most to her here, which was confirming he’d finally released that surfeit of potent energy from his session at the club earlier in the night. He was leveling out. While he could likely use a lot more aftercare, they were quite a distance from him earning that kind of treatment from her.
“You don’t want to talk about what happened in Tyler’s office?” he said abruptly. “Or why you followed me here?”
“No.” She continued to move toward the opening that would lead back to the ring area and then the parking lot. She didn’t need or want to stay any longer. She didn’t anticipate that he would do or say anything to hold her there longer, so it was a pleasant surprise when he did.
“You didn’t say what you thought of the fight.”
She pivoted and met his gaze. “No, I didn’t. Would you like to know?”
He could look wary, like an animal being baited into a trap. He had thick, dark lashes. His gray eyes were like the mirror surface of a lake. “Yeah,” he said at last.
“Okay.” She returned to him. There was a pen sitting next to the tray of gauze. Picking it up, she extended her hand, looking pointedly at one of his. When he offered it, she clasped his wrist and wrote an address on the inside of his forearm, along with Friday, 6:30pm.
His fingers flexed above her grip and she was aware of his breath stirring tendrils of hair against her cheek. Her hip pressed against his knee. She imagined sliding between his spread thighs, tasting the metallic flavor lingering on his lips, feeling the flex of his shoulder muscles under her splayed fingers and firm palms. His hands would curve over her hips, his own fingers digging in, showing he wanted and needed her.
Careful, girl, she thought. Don’t screw with your own head. He’ll do enough of that without your help.
“Meet me there and I’ll tell you.” Setting the pen aside, she laid a hand on the side of his face. His gaze lifted to her. “Get some rest. Take care of yourself.”
When he started to lift his hand to clasp her arm, she drew back and shook her head, a denial. His lips set in a thin line. “That a command, Mistress?” he asked tonelessly.
“Take it however you want.”
He curled his fingers around the edge of the table, body leaning forward, eyes suddenly cold and hard. “It wouldn’t matter, anyway, since you don’t really like me.”
“No. I don’t,” she responded frankly. “But I care about you. That doesn’t require that I like you.”

This is one of my all time favourite series and I was so excited to be given a chance to read an ARC of this book.
Nobody writes characters that need so much work like Joey W Hill. Marius, what a truly tortured soul he was; my heart just about broke for him at times. I so wanted him to be come through the darkness and into the light and honestly if anyone could do it then it is Lady Regina, a strong, powerful Domme with a heart of gold. 
It was also great to see some of my favourite people from the series make an appearance. Although a stand alone, you may get more enjoyment if you have read the previous books. 
I loved this book. Truly Helpless was at times a hard and distressing story to read, and although predominately about a BDSM and D/s relationship, to me it was love story, one of courage, and sheer determination to come from a world of darkness into the light.
The main characters are Mistress Regina and Marius, an employee of The Zone and a man in need of a strong Mistress who is willing to fight for his sanity and in the process risk herself. This book was such an emoptional roller-coaster that at times, I feared that Regina would not be able to help her”sweet boy” as the dakness and the anger closed in on Marius.
The scenes are hot, yet emotional, drawing the reader in so much that you almost feel that you are witnessing it first hand.The road they travel to get to their HEA is long, winding and bumpy, but they do eventually get there. 
This book, as expected with any book that Ms. Hill writes is extremely well done. A wonderful addition to one of the best series I have read and I look forward to reading more from the supremely talented Joey W Hill. 5 Stars all the way.

Review by Maimeo's Angels: Naughty Bits-The Complete Series by Joey W. Hill


THE COMPLETE NOVEL

To better serve the customers of her lingerie shop, Madison must explore the pleasures of giving up control...

.After inheriting her sister’s North Carolina lingerie shop, Naughty Bits, Madison jumps at the chance to dump her boring finance career and try her luck down South. But even before Madison can settle in, she catches the attention of the owner of the neighboring hardware store. Sexually dominant Logan Scott recognizes a submissive when he sees one. And what he sees, he wants.

He presents her with three very tempting gifts—handcuffs, erotic cards, and an open invitation to start her sexual training. She has to accept. After all, how can she hope to sell fantasies to lingerie customers without embracing her own? Now, she’s about to discover just how far her fantasies can take her—and how far Logan will go to make every one of them come true.
 




I’ve always had an aversion to reading, watching or hearing interviews of favorite actors, authors, musicians, etc. because so often the real person doesn’t measure up to the beauty of the art they produce. Their politics or religion are distasteful, or they’re shallow and self-absorbed, a vacuous mop-head without a lick of sense. From then on, though I may appreciate their craft or art, it has somehow been tarnished. 


Therefore, whenever I’m asked to provide personal information about myself for readers, a ball of anxiety forms in my stomach as I think: “Okay, the next couple of paragraphs can change forever the way someone views my stories.” Why on earth does a reader want to know about me? It’s the story that’s important.



So here it is. I’ve been given more blessings in my life than any one person has a right to have. Despite that, I’m a Type A, borderline obsessive-compulsive paranoiac who worries I will never live up to expectations. I’ve got more phobias than anyone (including myself) has patience to read about. I can’t stand talking on the phone, I dread social commitments, and the idea of living in monastic solitude with my husband and animals, books and writing is as close an idea to paradise as I can imagine. I love chocolate, but with that deeply ingrained, irrational female belief that weight equals worth, I manage to keep it down to a minor addiction. I adore good movies. I’m told I work too much. Every day is spent trying to get through the never ending “to do” list to snatch a few minutes to write.



Despite all these mediocre and typical qualities, for some miraculous reason, these wonderful characters well up out of my soul with stories to tell. When I manage to find enough time to write, sufficient enough that the precious “stillness” required rises up and calms all the competing voices in my head, I can step into their lives, hear what they are saying, what they’re feeling, and put it down on paper. It’s a magic beyond description, akin to truly believing my husband loves me, winning the trust of an animal who has known only fear or apathy, making a true connection with someone, or knowing for certain I’ve given a reader a moment of magic through those written words. It’s a magic that reassures me there is Someone, far wiser than myself, who knows the permanent path to that garden of stillness, where there is only love, acceptance and a pen waiting for hours and hours of uninterrupted, blissful use.



If only I could finish that darned “to do” list. 








Part 1: The Lingerie Shop
This is a Novella series by the wonderfully talented Joey W Hill being released monthly. I have to be honest, if I see her name, then it is an automatic purchase. I was not disappointed. After her sister Alice passes away, leaving Madison her Lingerie shop Naughty Bits, Madison's life changes. Madison has shown submissive interests and has visited clubs in the past with her sister but since she has had many failed relationships she has refused to take her interest's further. Not only has she been left Naughty Bits, but when Madison finds a letter from her sister Alice, she is told to trust Logan as much as she trusted her and that she is leaving Madison to Logan who is the owner of the hardware shop next door. Logan is a Master who trains submissive's and he is currently training Troy for his Domme. Madison does not understand what that means. As with all Joey W Hill books, I loved this first part of the series. I adore Logan and Madison, not to mention Troy and cannot wait for the next instalment which covers BDSM training. Logan has requested Madison help him train Troy, partly to help Madison come to terms with her own submissive feelings. You can see and feel how badly Madison needs to submit and how much Logan wants to be the one to train her. Will she have the courage to take what could most be the most important leap of her life? I hope so and cannot wait to find out.
Part II: The Training Session This is a part 2 of a new Novella series by the wonderfully talented Joey W Hill being released monthly. I have to be honest, if I see her name, then it is an automatic purchase. I was not disappointed. After her sister Alice passes away, leaving Madison her Lingerie shop Naughty Bits, Madison's life changes. In book 1 we found out that not only has she been left Naughty Bits, but Madison found a letter from her sister Alice, telling her that she is leaving Madison to Logan who is the owner of the hardware shop next door. Logan is a Master who trains submissives' and he is currently training Troy for his Domme. In this book, Logan invites Madison to assist in his training of Troy. Whilst attending the training session, it becomes obvious to all, just how badly Madison wants to submit too. In fact Logan uses Madison's body to train Troy and in turn train Madison. Madison is slowly learning to trust her feelings where Logan is concerned and his support has encouraged her to take Naughty Bits and make it her own, helping others to full fill their fantasies. Whilst Logan is fulfilling some of Madison's. I adore Logan and Madison, not to mention Troy and thoroughly enjoyed the BDSM sessions. I am honestly on the edge of my seat, waiting to see where Ms. Hill takes us next and I cannot wait to see how this story progresses.
Part III: Bound to Please
This is a part 3 of the new novella series by the wonderfully talented Joey W Hill being released monthly. I have to be honest, if I see her name, then it is an automatic purchase. I am never disappointed. After her sister Alice passes away, leaving Madison her Lingerie shop Naughty Bits, Madison's life changes in so many ways. In this book, Logan encourages Madison to open not only her mind but her heart to him and the BDSM lifestyle she so obviously craves. Their journey is spine tingling. Madison is so scared to open herself to the possibility of a relationship and Logan, in true Alpha form demands she do no less. What transpires is an exciting and sexy path to fulfillment both emotionally and sexually for both Madison and Logan. The sex is scorchingly hot in this book, as one expects from Joey W Hill. Logan even encourages Madison to experiment by dominating Troy under his supervision along with Troy's Mistress. What transpires becomes a life altering moment in Madison’s mind and heart. She truly realises the depths of her need to submit to her Master, Logan. Whilst Logan, in turn realises just how important Madison is to his life. I can hardly wait until July to read the conclusion to this wonderful adventure, waiting to see where Ms. Hill takes us as the story builds to its conclusion.
Part IV: The Highest Bid
This is part 4 and the conclusion to the new novella series by the wonderfully talented Joey W Hill. After her sister Alice passes away, leaving Madison her Lingerie shop Naughty Bits, Madison's life changes in so many ways. In this book, Logan brings Madison’s deepest fantasy to life in a way that is life altering for both of them. Throughout the series he has continued to encourage Madison to open not only her mind but her heart to him and the BDSM lifestyle she so obviously craves. Their journey has been life altering, for both of them. As the series continued we saw just how much Madison was scared to let Logan into her heart. She was so terrified to believe in herself and her feelings for Logan that she withdrew into herself. What Madison didn’t count on was Logan and his determination to make her accountable for her decisions and to bring her back to life. Logan ensured that she faced her fears and in the end she opened herself to what I am sure will be a lifetime of happiness. Logan and Madison were meant to be together and as expected Ms. Hill delivered. Well done Joey W Hill another excellent series
