Erotic

Present Day

 

When Karl Dawson sees the lovely rump sticking out from under his assistant’s desk, his first thought is…yummy!  But that gets upgraded to delicious when the full woman emerges.  Lara Fox is absolutely gorgeous and judging by her demeanor, she doesn’t mind what she sees either.  But Karl has very specific sexual tastes.  Is Lara open to exploring them?

 

Lara Fox doesn’t want a relationship and is not ashamed of being a wham-bam-thank-you-ma’am kind of woman.  Her motto is ‘try anything once,’ and Karl, with his tattoo peaking through the collar of his very expensive suit, seems like the perfect candidate for a fling.  But she’s not sure if the whole Dom/Sub scene is her thing.  Lara’s never submitted to anyone and she’s not sure she ever will.  Then again, she did say she’d try anything at least once.

 

Sasha White is at her kinky best in WICKED.  Returning for his own turn at love is Karl Dawson, last seen as a secondary character in TROUBLE.  After Karl’s friend Val falls in love, Karl himself starts to feel the pull.  It doesn’t take long after meeting Lara for him to know that she’s the one.  Convincing her is another story.  Lara likes being footloose and fancy free with few attachments, even friends.  A troubled childhood shaped the woman she’s become.  Can a patient man crack the shell around her heart?

An exciting sequel to TROUBLE, WICKED lives up to its name, but adds a sweetness to the romance that balances the erotic action.
