Sir Avery's Wish

Rate this book
What secrets does Eli keep, and can Sir Avery keep him safe?

When Avery discovers that an employee at his Charles River Suites hotel is living in the basement, he only intends to give him some assistance. However, the young man runs away before Avery can help. Now all Avery can do is wonder why he was so afraid, and whether he’ll survive a cold Boston winter on the streets.

Eli is at the edge of despair, with nowhere to go. His boss caught him sleeping in the hotel laundry room. He doesn’t have enough money for a room, and he’s terrified of what he ran from in Los Angeles.

At a shelter, Eli meets a compassionate volunteer around his age who offers him a place to stay. His new friend Ryan lives a very interesting life—the kind Eli had begun to explore before he abruptly left LA. But the real surprise is the older, handsome man he meets at Club Sensation.

But how can he become Sir Avery’s boy when his secret could keep him running forever?

Sir Avery's Wish is the third book in the spicy Club Sensation series from the world of Born Daddy. You can expect a hurt/comfort, twenty-year age gap, swoony romance between a billionaire Dom who's lost his way, and a boy who needs someone to show him who's boss.

This is book 3 in the Club Sensation series and I’ve been waiting patiently for Sir Avery’s book! And it did not disappoint at all! Avery’s character was everything that I wanted him to be- he was strong, confident and the ultimate daddy dom. When he finds out that Eli is living in the laundry basement of his hotel, he isn’t angry, he just wants to support Eli. It takes Eli a little while to trust Avery, but once they both confess their feelings and start their dynamic properly, it is amazing! Sir Avery is hot as hell! 🔥🔥

Eli’s story is an interesting one. He fled LA to escape a dangerous situation and heads to Boston as a place far enough away to be safer, but he is always on edge and afraid. He had found a place to stay when he set up a space in a storeroom where he worked, then he lost it when it was discovered and Avery, the hotel’s owner, found him, sending him fleeing into the greater Boston area with nothing but the clothes on his back. He ends up at a shelter for food and encounters Ryan, one of Master Zane’s boys from a previous book, and shelter is offered with Ryan, Ty, and Master Zane. Before leaving LA, Eli had been interested in the BDSM world, and he is able to reenter that world with Ryan, where he again meets Sir Avery, a Daddy Dom, and good friend of Master Zane. The two have a connection, Avery wants to help Eli with whatever he is running from, but also with issues that can definitely be worked on with a Dom. Now Eli just needs to decide whether or not he wants to pursue a relationship with a Dom and to be a submissive.

Along with some background on BDSM through visits to Club Sensation, there is a mystery that sent Eli fleeing to Boston, and there are two men finding in each other what has been missing in their lives. Relatable, realistic characters and an interesting look into the D/s dynamic from Eli’s standpoint, with input from Ryan and explanations from Sir Avery.

I enjoy Morticia’s writing, her stories and characters keep me engaged, and reading about the BDSM dynamic and lifestyles is informative. I enjoy seeing characters from previous books crop up again in her different series, and I always have a satisfied feeling after reading her books. If you like books on the kinky side, I think many of her series would appeal to you.

Avery is the owner of the Charles River Estates hotel. He is a very good owner even if he does work too hard and spend far too many nights away from his home. He is well respected at work and in the Club Sensation community both of which are important for the story which is to unfold.

Having been told there is possibly an employee living in the basement of the hotel Avery wants to know why and how he can help. The problem is he comes across as a little intimidating and the terrified young man runs. Now Avery wants to do whatever he can to find him again, he's worried.

When Eli first ran it was from the possibility that a murderer knew who he was, knew he was a witness and would track him down. He fled to Boston because it was a place he sort of knew from childhood visits. But he fled with nothing and was too terrified to do anything other than find a basic job. When he is found living in the hotel he flees again but this time he really does have nothing. Finding a homeless shelter serving food, thanks to the kindness of others, he meets Ryan and from there it's possible he will be saved. Ryan is one of Zane's boys and the connections work themselves out.

Connections made, Eli safe, Avery now needs to show that he is a good, kind, compassionate and caring man who is incredibly attracted to Eli and would like to be more to the young man. Can Avery show Eli that he is safe, loved, cared for and important? Can he show him the way to become Sir Avery's boy and live a happy, settled life?

A fast-paced, exciting and steamy story with age gap and hurt-comfort themes that will melt even the toughest of hearts.

SIR AVERY'S WISH is the third book in the Club Sensation series, and tells us the story of Eli and Avery. Eli is originally from LA, but escapes to Boston after witnessing a murder. Avery is the owner of a hotel/conference centre and is friends with Zane. He has been on hiatus from playing at the club for a while, but doesn't fully understand why until Zane lays it out for him. Avery meets Eli when it comes to his attention that a boy is sleeping in the laundry room, but Eli takes off before Avery can help. Through a series of events, Eli ends up staying with Zane, Ty, and Ryan. Through them, he gets a job and sees Avery again for the first time since running away, and this time, Avery intends to do all he can to help him stay.

This was a sweet story with a solid connection between Avery and Eli, once they actually get into the same physical space. Through Avery's care and praise, Eli blossoms in so many ways, not only in trusting Avery and telling him about his past. It is definitely a two-way street in this relationship, as Avery benefits too.

I found the pacing to be smooth up until the end, and then it seemed a little rushed to me. Saying that, I still thoroughly enjoyed the story and the characters, and look forward to seeing more of those in Club Sensation, especially Gabe, who had a little crush on Avery. Definitely recommended by me.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4 stars)

Sir Avery’s Wish is a tender, spicy addition to the Club Sensation series. This one leans more on the hurt/comfort side, pairing a weary billionaire Dom with a lost, frightened boy trying to find safety and belonging.

Avery and Eli’s connection is immediate but develops with care. Avery isn’t just a Dom looking for control—he’s a man searching for purpose again. Eli is vulnerable, on the run from a painful past, and desperate for stability. Together, they create something both healing and sensual. Their relationship is wrapped in kindness and understanding, with the right amount of heat.

This is a novella, so the romance moves quickly, but it still feels sweet and heartfelt. The twenty-year age gap is handled thoughtfully, adding depth rather than discomfort. If you’re looking for something that blends soft intimacy, just enough kink, and a swoony romance, this delivers.

Not as intense as some of the earlier books, but that’s also its charm—it’s more of a cozy, low-angst BDSM romance. Perfect for when you want a story that’s sexy, emotional, and leaves you with a warm feeling at the end.

Tropes: hurt/comfort · age gap · BDSM · billionaire · found family · protective Dom / vulnerable boy
Content Warnings: mentions of past abuse (off-page), homelessness, emotional distress.

Review for (Club Sensation-3) Sir Avery's Wish by Morticia Knight

This series gets better and better. I loved the story between Eli and Avery. What Eli goes through back home is horrible. He runs away to keep others safe. He ends up working for the Charles Review Suites Hotel, which Avery owns. They haven't run into each other due to Eli working in the laundry room. Things go awry when Eli's boss figures out he is living in the basement. Avery tries to find out what is going on with Eli because he feels and sees that Eli is running in fear. All he wants to do is take Eli into his arms and keep him safe. But Eli runs because he fears that it will come out why he is running. All Avery wants to do is find out what is going on in Eli's life and show him he can be safe in his hands. Eli wants to trust Avery and his friends. Eli feels he can trust Ty and Ryan for sure. He feels he can feel safe with their Master and Daddy Zane. Will Eli allow these men to show him he can be safe and get what he wants, Avery? Will what Eli is running from come and tear apart the life he is slowly building? Or will Eli get the Master's he wants?

Again, Morticia Knight, you hit it out of the ballpark. I loved, loved, loved Eli and Avery. I wanted the book to be longer lol. I can't wait to see what comes out next from you.

Sir Avery has been in a rut and doesn't even realize until he finds a boy sleeping in his hotel laundry room. Eli is hiding from his past by moving to Boston and living in the basement of the laundry room until he is found out and is on the run once again. Lucky for him he meets Ryan, and the boy his daddy can help him as he helped Ryan and Ty in the past. Avery is beside himself in the way he handled the Eli situation and now is on the lookout to ensure the boy isn't sleeping on the streets. These two are bound to one another once in other orbits. With care from Master Zane, his men and Sir Avery, Eli is able to open up about his past and start moving toward a better future. Morticia did a beautiful job in showing the gentle introduction to the kink community that allowed Eli to be comfortable before taking the next steps in enter a DOM/SUB dynamic. Averys care and understanding showed how great of a Dom he is in allowing Eli to understand not only what he wants but what he needs from this type of relationship. A wonderful addition to this universe. I lam looking forward to more if the author chooses to continue with this world.

I’m voluntarily reviewing from an advanced copy that I received. My review is solely based on my thoughts and opinions.

Eli is homeless, scared, and hiding from a painful secret he left behind in Los Angeles. When his boss at the Charles River Suites discovers him living in the basement, Eli flees—too afraid to accept help, even from the kind and commanding hotel owner, Avery. Avery is haunted by the encounter. He wants to help the frightened young man, but Eli vanishes into the cold Boston streets. At a shelter, Eli finds temporary warmth through Ryan, a volunteer whose lifestyle echoes the one Eli once dared to explore. But it’s at Club Sensation where Eli meets Sir Avery again—and this time, the connection is electric. As Eli begins to trust and open up, the question looms: can he truly surrender to Avery’s care and protection when the secret he carries threatens to unravel everything?

I loved this story of vulnerability, power, and the healing that comes from being truly seen. There were a lot of emotional stakes and quiet intensity in the story which fit It well. I liked that Avery wanted Eli and that the BDSM lifestyle was not a mandatory requirement. Lots of emotions and feelings in this story. This was an MM story with mature content and a BDSM-like D/s dynamic.

Sir Avery’s Wish is the long-awaited third book in the Club Sensation series, and it more than delivers. Avery is every inch the commanding, confident Daddy Dom I hoped for, but his strength is matched by a tenderness that shines when he discovers Eli hiding out in his hotel laundry room. Scarred and on the run from a painful past, Eli struggles to trust, yet he is slowly drawn into Avery’s protective embrace. Their dynamic progresses with a lot of patience, care, and undeniable heat, making their journey from fear to freedom both steamy and heartfelt. A beautiful mix of kink, healing, and found family, this is an outstanding addition to the series.

This is a sweet and sexy story. Eli has come to Boston to find a new life. Things are hard and Eli is need of a helping hand. When Avery finds Eli and tries to help him Eli runs but soon their worlds will connect again and change everything.
I enjoyed getting to see Eli find his way, with the support of friends and Avery he grows. It was nice to see the bond and trust blossom between Eli and Avery. The two are good together and the chemistry between them is something else. The book moves along nicely and pulled me in right from the start. It is full of well-rounded characters and strong emotions.

'There was something about the way Avery looked at him— not like he was a screw-up or a burden, but like he mattered.
Was he projecting something that wasn’t there, or was there a promise of more in Avery’s words?'

I loved this book. It was such a hurt/comfort romance, and a journey of healing and trust for Eli. Great world building and wonderful characters. I loved both Avery and Eli. I liked seeing familiar faces, and loved that Ryan, Ty, and Zane were helping Eli, and were patient and understanding of his situation. I also loved how kind and gentle Avery was with him and the way their relationship developed. A sweet read. 5 stars

Another great book by Morticia Knight. I love all of her books especially Men Loving Men with some BDSM thrown in. This series continues at Club Sensation and the men that have fun and find love there. This book is about Sir Avery and Eli. Eli finds himself in a bad situation and Sir Avery sees his fear and pain and wants to help. It takes some convincing and some help from the other men we have met at Club Sensation but it’s a great HEA with a lot of steam in the middle. I highly recommend this book. Enjoy!

Wicked, almonds & honey, red bracelet, shrimp pesto linguine, magical Dom penis, meatloaf, dragon movie, chocolate syrup

This wonderful and sweet book explores BDSM from a beginner's POV. It's a quick read with some angst and heat. Dom Avery and maybe-sub Eli are a perfect match. Except for Eli, everything is high class and expensive. Very expensive. Which is perfect because Eli wants to remain anonymous and beneath the radar. All Avery wants to do is take care and protect Eli.

This is entertaining and enjoyable. Recommended.

Eli witnesses a murder and runs. Then he is caught by his new boss, Avery, living in the hotel's laundry storage room. He is afraid to tell the truth and runs again. Crashing with Avery's friends, he realizes he has feelings for him. Avery had fallen for him at once and wants a Dom/Sub relationship. Eli wants help with decisions and to be cared for and touched, so much touching. Avery wants to help him become his best. This is one steamy story and Eli is one lucky boy finding his Sir. I received a copy of this through BookSprout and this is my voluntary opinion.

Supportive and loving. Eli, is at his rock bottom. He has a job, but he's homeless. He trust no one and he's running from his past. Avery, catches Eli sleeping in the laundry room and feels compelled to help. Avery's found family support group help Avery and Eli find their footing. Morticia does her usual amazing job bringing us great characters and a strong loving support group. Eli and Avery must plant their footing and find their balance. Good story. Nicely done.

Eli was dropping off his best friend late one night. Well parked and talking they witnessed a crime. They ran for their lives. Eli left town fearing the perpetrator had his license plate number and would track him down. That is where he meets and runs from Avery. Only to be later rescued by one of Avery's friends. I absolutely love this book I love to build up between Avery and Eli. I hope his best friend Lenny gets his book next.

This was a great book! I loved Eli and Avery together. Eli is starting his life over but is having a hard time. Avery founds out about Eli and Avery wants to help Eli but Eli keep running away. These two have a wonderful connection and chemistry once Avery is able to keep Eli from running away. These two get a really sweet and deserved HEA. I can't wait for more.

Eli and his friend Lenny see a murder happen and escape being caught by the shooter. Lenny stays in LA but Eli goes to Boston to hide and takes a job at an elite hotel laundry. He is discovered by the owner staying in a utility closet and runs again. On the streets and homeless with hardly an money Ryan offers him a place to stay. This story centers around Club Sensation where he is helped by members of the club including his former boss Avery. It is suspenseful, steamy, romantic and witty.

I was very surprised when Zane 'appeared' in Eli POV. Had to reread several times until it clicked what's going on
I understand that in BDSM relationship can be quick but here until 56% of the book both MMC are barely talking to each other. It's like author had suddenly remember that it supposed to be a romance so they just blurted that they had a crush on each other during the first adequate conversation.

Great Story

Such an adorable and emotional read. I really enjoyed both main MC’s and getting to know them too.

Avery & Eli were made for each other. Avery will stop at nothing to protect Eli from everything. Eli has been running and needed to go somewhere far away. He didn’t know what was going to happen and how he got so lucky.

You’ll get to connect with both of them and feel all the emotions.

This starts out sad, but becomes very uplifting by the end. In fact, it became beautiful. Two lost souls in the world come together in a very unexpected way. Sir Avery extends hospitality and compassion to Eli, that grew both ways.
I loved getting to see Eli and Sir Avery bond and grow together through tragedy, and become much more. Check out their journey. You'll melt by the end!

Avery and Eli find each other

This is a very typical Morticia Knight story with young Eli running away from something and older Avery finding and helping him. Lots of love, spice and enough bits of confusion to keep the story going. I find her books always hit the spot when I want something like this to read.

Sir Avery's Wish is the third book in the Club Sensation and I think it's best in order. This is a found family, age gap, hurt/comfort read about Avery and Eli. I really enjoyed this storyline and all the wonderful characters.
