Shay had thought that things with Lucas were perfect. But then her hopes for a relationship are crushed when he dismisses her after their passionate weekend together. Trying to make him jealous, Shay very publicly goes out with his business partner, Jonathan. Only what starts out as a ploy to win Lucas back soon becomes something more complicated when Jonathan lures Shay into his bed. Although she finds white-hot passion in his arms, she can’t seem to let go of Lucas, the man who introduced her to the wonders of BDSM.

But Lucas isn't the only one who is hiding something, and Jonathan carefully guards secrets from Shay. Are both of their intentions pure? Will she gamble everything by returning to Lucas or will she choose to protect her heart and stay with the charismatic Jonathan? Find out in Torn: Caught between the Billionaires (Book 2: Jonathan)!

Okay, I know this is a really short book, but it has become my guilty pleasure bdsm series! It is totally hot. This one picks up right where the last book left off with Jonathon, the dominant, pursuing Shay. Shay wants to be with Lucas. Lucas rebuffs her advances; he wants her terribly but is afraid to be involved with a woman again. Jonathon ends up taking Shay to the fetish club, where they run into Lucas and sparks fly. It is like an erotic soap opera that I just can't put down...or in this case, can't stop reading. Can't wait to see what happens in the next installment! :-)

Wow!! The second book in the series is great!! I loved it even though it's short. Shay is caught between two sexy, dominant males that each elicit sexual and emotional responses from her! Jonathan is different from Lucas. His dominance is rough and playful. He's more laid back, but he wants Shay all the same. Shay feels a pull towards Jonathan, but Lucas continually plagues her mind and heart. Little does she know our playful Jonathan has a hidden agenda of revenge!! Can't wait to read what happens next!

I was hooked with book one, and now intrigued with book 2. I love Jonathan’s dominant style, he is definitely my kind of man! BUT we get a glimpse into his mind and motives and they are not so good. My only complaint is I wish there was more meat to the story. I like the different POVs, but I think each book in this series could be longer, meatier, with more substance and story. It’s a super short read, I just wanted more within this installment.

Part 2 of 4.
Shay wants Lucas but is hurt by his many rejections so she falls into his buisness partner Jonathans arms and bed.

Jonathan is later revealed as an a$$ who only wants Shay because he knows Lucas wants her.

There is an almost threesome scene but that ends abruptly. Other than that the highlights are a spanking scene, office sex, and a cropping/bondage scene.
Downpart is yet again no talk of protection, STD, birth control condoms..nada in this mini series.
