Nanny's Surrender: Forbidden Collection

Rate this book
I took a bath in my boss’s tub. Now, I’m collared in his basement.

I lost my corporate job in a blaze of burnout.
To reset, I moved into my sister’s guest room, leaving everything behind.
When she sets me up with a nanny gig, I don’t expect Blaze.

Hot.
Brooding.
Off-limits.

Six-foot-something of raw dominance, with eyes that pin me in place.
He is far too good at making his daughter smile while making me squirm.
One night, I unwind in his tub, warm water against my skin.
Then, he walks in.
And doesn’t walk out.

He doesn’t just kiss me—he claims me.
Every warning sign in my head drowns in the sound of my moans.
I should’ve stopped the first time he spanked me in his playroom.
But the way he made me come harder than I ever have—I came back.

I know I’m in trouble.
And I don’t want to be saved.

Join Claire in her BDSM awakening—where pain blurs into pleasure, and surrender is the ultimate turn-on.

HOT, HOT, HOT

I’m Lust. And I write the kind of filth you shouldn’t read in public—unless you want to soak through your panties and feel it drip down your thighs.
These stories? They’re short, shameless, and pure taboo. No slow build. No holding hands. Just raw, unfiltered heat that hits fast and fucks hard.

You’ll find yourself aching, throbbing, dripping—craving more after just a few dirty paragraphs.
Perfect for when you’re alone… or when you’re about to drag someone to bed.
These aren’t just stories. They’re foreplay.
I don’t hold back—and I don’t expect you to either. There’s a trigger warning for a reason. What I write is raw, bold, and unapologetically filthy.
If you’re not into that… walk away.

But if you are? Come get ruined.

Enjoy. 🔥

I received a free copy of the book via Booksprout, and the following review is entirely my own voluntary and honest opinion.

Avalon Lust's latest novella, “Nanny's Surrender”, like the rest of the “Forbidden Collection”, is a short, passionate story that does not conquer with a complicated plot or deep background, but builds on the intense chemistry between the characters. The emphasis this time is on a relationship overflowing with desire, not on the characters' pasts or complex dramas – and that suits the story well.

The protagonist, Claire, is a confident, career-driven woman who is thrown into a new life situation by burnout – an all-too-real but rarely addressed mental state. She moves in with her sister to recover and regain balance. While chaperoning a school trip, she meets Hailey, a lovely little girl who takes an instant liking to her. When it turns out that Hailey's father, Blaze, needs a nanny, Claire's sister offers her without a second thought.

What begins as a temporary favor quickly becomes something far more intimate. The relationship between Claire and Blaze unfolds gradually – and that slow build makes it feel authentic. The author doesn’t rush the characters toward each other – instead, she lets the tension simmer, giving space for Claire’s emotional and erotic transformation. One of the most striking moments in the story is when Claire ends up in Blaze’s bathtub. It’s intimate, unexpected, and thick with charged hesitation. The scene walks a tightrope between vulnerability and desire, underscored by consent and restraint – Blaze pulling away before crossing a line. It’s in these moments that Lust’s storytelling shines: pain blurs into pleasure, control meets surrender, and Claire begins to explore something deeper within herself.

Because, at its core, “Nanny's Surrender” is Claire’s BDSM awakening. Her journey is one of discovery, where power dynamics, submission, and the sensual appeal of giving in are explored with surprising nuance. Avalon Lust uses the framework of BDSM not for shock value, but as a meaningful lens through which Claire learns to let go, both emotionally and physically. It’s an exploration of control, trust, and the thrill of surrender – where vulnerability becomes a source of strength, and pleasure is heightened by the edge of pain.

After a few weeks apart, a quiet evening at home reignites the fire between the two main charachters. From this moment on, their relationship deepens rapidly, but not unrealistically. Blaze is the archetypal brooding protector – gentle, yet commanding. Claire, caught between her composed, professional persona and a growing hunger for more, becomes increasingly real. Their chemistry is undeniable, and their evolving bond feels earned.

This novella doesn't pretend to be anything other than what it is: a well-paced, emotionally charged, and erotically satisfying romance. There are no twists for shock’s sake, no unnecessary drama – just a clear arc of tension, desire, and transformation. It's an easy, fulfilling read that knows exactly what it wants to deliver – and does so with confidence, heat, and just the right amount of bite.

I picked this one up right after finishing a deeply emotional book, and it was exactly what I needed: a quick, spicy escape with just enough story to carry the heat.

The main character, Claire, is introduced with a promising setup: a high-powered career woman diagnosed with burnout (which, yes, is a real thing), who moves in with her sister to reset. When she’s asked to help chaperone on a school field trip, she meets Hailey, a sweet little girl who instantly connects with her. Hailey’s dad, Blaze, mentions needing a nanny, and Claire is volunteered for the role on the spot by her sister. What starts as a temporary favor turns into something a lot more personal.

There’s a definite slow build between Claire and Blaze, but when the tension breaks, it’s emotional and full of heat. One of the standout scenes involves Claire in Blaze’s tub, unexpected, intimate, and layered with just enough hesitation and consent to make it powerful. Her hesitation causes him to leave her before things get too heated. A few weeks later, everything changes again during a quiet night at home, and from there, the relationship deepens quickly.

Blaze is all broody protectiveness, and Claire is caught between professionalism and real desire. Their chemistry is strong and believable, with just enough story to make the spicy moments feel natural.

This was an easy, satisfying read, no big twists or shocks, just a well-paced, steamy romance that ended on a good note. It hit the spot for what I needed at the time and made for a great palate cleanser after a much heavier emotional read.

Claire has left her life behind after suffering from burnout but she soon finds herself experiencing a different kind of heat after meeting Blaze, the father of one of her sister’s students. Blaze has found himself in need of a nanny and takes the opportunity to bring Claire into his life. After finding Claire in his bath, he can’t hold himself back from climbing in with her to tease and tantalise her, and offer her all he has to give. She’s not ready to be claimed just yet but given time, Claire finds herself trusting Blaze to discover and explore new desires. This is a thrilling exploration of Claire’s first experiences of BDSM, guided by the dominant but attentive Blaze – another arousing read from Avalon, with extra pages providing more depth, steam and spice.

This books disclaimer was it’s basically *orn for women with no character development or real plot. I laughed when I read that however it’s not entirely true. It’s is a short smutty story with lots of juicy bits, but I felt like I had a decent sense of who the characters were.

She did a great job with the story with all the tension and lead up to the smutty goodness. BDSM, spanking, nanny-employer relationship, and all the other yummy stuff one hopes for in these types of stories.

Overall if you’re looking for a quick, and I mean quick read then check it out. Please read the trigger warnings if you’re sensitive to certain subjects.

I enjoyed the quick read very much.

Claire meets Blaze when her sister, Grace, convinces her to be a chaperone for her second grade classes field trip. Blaze is looking for a nanny for his daughter Hailey, who instantly attached herself to Claire during the outing. Attraction grows between Claire and Blaze until they can no longer resist each other. As their relationship gets stronger Blaze introduces Claire to his home BDSM room. I like how protection was always used without question. Although no safe word was talked about, Blaze was very careful and protective of Claire as he took her beyond her usual boundaries. I like that he took the time to prepare her body for her first backdoor experience and was very hands on with aftercare.

Blaze and Claire's chemistry was intense, and I enjoyed how the story die broaden out to include Hailey at certain points. While they were aware of the line in the sand, that line that should not be crossed, they were also aware of the attraction. This story follows just how far two people can push their restraint before something, or someone, gives. Blaze is definately a Dom, something Claire is unfamiliar with. Will it be the thing that destroys the whole arrangement, or cements everything? Find out!

I enjoyed receiving a gift copy of this book and voluntarily provided this review. Happy Reading Y'all 📚

What a wonderful story this was. We are taken along in the lives of Claire and Blaze. They try to keep it professional at first and not cross the line of employer and Nanny but it doesn't take long before it is no longer feasible because they have an attraction and a chemistry together. It was nice to read that Blaze is a dom and that is something Claire knows nothing about or has come into contact with and so they discover together whether it is something for Claire or not. I enjoyed their journey together and it is a must read.

High steam, low plot. She is in between jobs and takes a position as a nanny to sweet little girl. She loves the job, but the dad is hot and brooding and causing her to think things that she shouldn't. When he comes home early and finds her in his bathtub, and she knows things are not going to be the same. He sets his sights on her, and it isn't long before she gives in, and when he takes her to his special room, there is no going back. This is high heat and steamy with a few light bdsm elements thrown in. It is not dark or heavy, just erotic.

The FMC suffers from exhaustion. She gets a job as a nanny. At first she ignores him because she’s afraid of what will happen if she doesn’t. They both fight the attraction, they do. But eventually they become friendlier.

Ohhhh, this book is so yummy. It was short and sweet and easy to read. I was rooting for both main characters. PLENTY of spice with some BDSM mixed in. They would be a perfect couple in real life. I would definitely recommend this quick little novella.

This is a nice short spicy close proximity story. It's too bad the woman isn't described in any detail, but that is typical in most "romance" stories. I guess the idea is for any woman reading the story to be able to fantasize that the story is about her. I don't really get into BDSM, but this story is definitely spicy and explicit enough to rate a 4.5/5 on my spice scale. If you're looking for a great steamy 2 hour read, this is it.

As always, the book is short and steamy as any ready of Avalon Lust would expect. But there is more character development and more story to this one.

I know Avalon doesn’t write to develop characters or plots, but i felt there was a bit of these in there. And if this series keeps going like this, it will be so much better than the pleasure series..which we’re all great anyway!.

A little bit of a plot but plenty of heat. This is one steamy read, the FMC Claire has quit her job then her sister asks for her help in looking after her class kids where she’s introduced to a dad. Blaze is in need of a nanny aka Claire, their attraction is real and after a little mishap things progress and soon she’s introduced to a sexual awakening that involves toys, light bdsm and plenty of steam. A quick, easy and hot read.

Just because there's more depth than usual for Avalon does not mean she lacked on Spice. No she didn't this is still packed full of her usual brand spicy smut. If you like her books then you'll enjoy this one as well.

Avalon tells a great short story about surrender and I love the interaction between Blaze and Claire. I wish there had been one more chapter where he collared her but that's usually not how the author finishes these stories. Good one though!.
