SWAT Team
Hostage Negotiator, Steve, wonders why he can’t stay away from the spoiled rich
Allistair, owner of Dark Fantasy Resort Casino. They have mutual kinks - ones
Steve can’t find with other lovers—but there’s something else about the emotionally
detached, beautiful man that calls to him.
Billionaire
Allistair stays alone in his luxury penthouse apartment at the top of Dark
Fantasy, terrified of the real world and of opening himself up to genuine
emotions. He takes lover after lover, all of them allowing him to do whatever
he wants to their bodies, in the hopes that they can scam something from him.
One night is all
he ever shares with a plaything—he knows they only want the money and luxury he
can offer them and nothing more. But the down to earth Steve is different. They
share the same kinks and are explosive when together. But could the muscled law
officer ever want more than the lust-filled encounters that have become such an
addiction?
As they grow
closer, they discover they also have to find a balance between Steve’s everyday
world and Allistair’s entitled world before they can truly find an ever after.
They also have to make sure Allistair stays safe. Filthy rich playboys are too
tempting to those who seek the ultimate payday—and who aren’t afraid of hurting
someone to get it.
Reader Advisory:
This book contains scenes of BDSM and fetishism.
Can I give this book 10 stars please??
Steve and Allistair have played before; both
believing it was a onetime thing as Allistair never comes back for seconds. But
there is something about Steve that Allistair craves, his big, sexy SWAT
officer that has a taste for leather, lace and the promise of pain. Steve is
only mildly surprised when one of Allistair's bodyguards approaches him to tell
him the billionaire playboy is requesting his company for the evening. But what
Allistair wants is so much more than random hook-ups and nights of pleasure and
pain that end as soon as the sun comes up. The question is, does Steve want the
same thing?
What I love about this story and Building Bonds by
the same Author is the merging of Contemporary Romance and the BDSM lifestyle,
and the fact that is done tastefully. I'm not a reader that enjoys a story
where one partner is hurting the other in the name of love and kinks. What
Knight does that is so different is explains what is happening... what the kink
is, why the Dom and the Sub like and crave their position in the relationship.
She shows a different side of the lifestyle that isn't just about the
pleasure/pain aspect, it's about love, honor, integrity and respect.
Steve has to be professional, calm and collected
everyday on the job. As a SWAT negotiator, the words he chooses when speaking
to that person on the other side of the phone could be the deciding factor in
whether or not the hostage(s) lives or dies. With Allistair, he doesn't have to
be calm, in control, careful and precise with his words and movements.
Allistair has an ingrained need to be in control. He never plays with the same
Sub twice, never succumbs to a physical attraction, and never falls in love.
But Steve cause Allistair to break all his rules, the attraction is that
powerful. Together, they complete each other.
I highly recommend this book, even with the BDSM
aspect of the story, it barely even registered for me I was so wrapped up in
the relationship and how that evolved throughout the story. I've seen some
people commenting that they only read Contemporary and aren't happy with the
curve ball this story throws into the series. Again, I stress, give it a go, I
think you will be surprised.
Exclusive Excerpt:
{NOTE: this is a very naughty excerpt, intended for mature audiences only}
Steve renewed his touches, his kisses. Allistair’s
eyes drifted closed and he allowed himself to give the control of his body over
to Steve. It was a rare thing for them. Allistair was aware that they shared a
unique dynamic sexually where pain, pleasure and dominance were the primary
ingredients. The power exchange between them was as or more significant than
all other aspects of their relationship. Allistair craved control, never
bottomed. However, he also needed to know that Steve desired him, yearned for
his body.
Allistair wiggled and squirmed beneath Steve’s assured
touches. Steve kneaded and stroked his frame, explored every inch of skin then
followed the path with his lips and tongue. When he reached Allistair’s groin,
he rubbed his nose and face against his rigid column of flesh, lapped at his
balls.
Steve dragged his tongue underneath Allistair’s cock
from base to tip. When he reached the head, he sucked on the very end as if
drinking from his slit. Allistair moved his legs restlessly, clutching at Steve’s
hair. Steve swallowed his length and Allistair thought he’d go mad from the
sensation. When Steve let his heated erection drop from his lips, it forced a
whimper from him.
Steve drew the loose skin of his sac into his mouth,
suckling it. He ran his hands up Allistair’s torso, encouraging Allistair to
let go of his hair by pushing at his arms. Allistair obeyed the unspoken
request, grabbing the swirled iron of the bed’s headboard then hanging on with
a strong grip. 10/Steve would give his life to protect Allistair.

The sub-genre I prefer really depends on my mood at the time. I like all of the mentioned sub-genres, but at the moment I'm in more of a historical or bdsm mood. Weird mix, huh?
ReplyDeleteI like a good contemporary, but given my love for firemen and hockey players, a uniform doesn't hurt either!

Tough question, I like them all. I guess I lean just a little more toward contemporary.
