About this ebook

“Don’t think of it as blackmail. Think of it as an alternative to prison. I’d much rather punish you myself.”

Kayla Sutton faces a question no mother wants to face: what would you do to save your daughter? Broke and desperate, she siphons thousands from her employer to pay for her daughter’s treatment, but when Gage Channing discovers her theft, she is shocked to learn that her boss has no intention of turning her over to the police. Instead he issues an ultimatum—give him her sexual submission, or go to jail.

Backed into a corner by a man with no shame, Kayla must find the strength to travel down the path of pain and pleasure. But when her past catches up to her, prompting a free fall into forbidden territory with a man she once loved, Kayla realizes nothing is black and white when everyone around her has secrets.

Ratings and reviews

I read this book because a friend recommended it and It disturbed me greatly. The protagonist is blackmailed, raped and beaten by her boss and ends up going back time and again? After previously being abused by her ex husband? Yeah ok. Author tried to paint him as a tormented and vulnerable just needs love underneath it all sort of guy, but he was just a rapist and a terrible person. Also for someone who blathered on about how her daughter is her world, she sure is a hypocrite. Gives real BDSM a bad name.

No lie, I couldn't put this book down. I read it because of all the other reviews saying how it was "so much better than 50 shades" so I of course, had to read it. What. The. F***?! This book was so messed up! It was a woman being blackmailed into being a Sex slave and raped by her boss. It was so twisted & dramatic, that I couldn't stop reading. But I wouldn't say that it was a good book. It was just so wrong. Then the ending left you wondering, but it's just too twisted for me to read the next one.

Really intense. Better than 50 shades, in my opinion. Can't wait to read the next books in the series.
