Life can change in an instant.

Betrayal. Just like that everything I had built, my entire life, was falling apart. My world threatened to collapse from under me, everything was slipping through my hands, and it looked like there wasn’t a damn thing I could do to stop the destruction. I was going to lose everything but the worst part was, I was going to lose her.

A second chance.

Fate smiled down on me and gave me a second chance. And it was so much better than I could have ever imagined. He worshipped my body, he made me feel adored. Until that day. The day I found them, the day his skeletons came pouring out of that closet he thought was so well hidden. He made a huge mistake if he thought I was naive. It was time for me to take control.



Can he SWITCH to get it all back?


***A work of erotica, intended for mature audiences, strong sexual content and some language, BDSM elements, this is a second book in the STRANGER series, both are intended to be read as stand-alones, no cliffhangers***

About the author

N.M. Catalano

24 books500 followers
"I am just a woman, like many of you, who has lived through beauty and ugliness, happiness, (sometimes extreme), and sadness, (sometimes heart wrenching), and have grown to love life and myself even more. I write because I love the characters, I am madly and hopelessly in love with them and want to share them with you. Life is beautiful and is meant to be enjoyed day by day, sometimes you have to pick out the good stuff with a magnifying glass like a needle in a haystack, but enjoyed none the less. The stories that I put on paper, I think, help us to find that enjoyment a little bit more."

WARNING !! This book is SERIOUSLY HOT ! One of the best erotic series I have ever read. You must read Stranger prior to reading Switch.


Marco and Elizabeth are back in Switch and things just got a whole lot hotter. In Stranger you got to know Elizabeth DiStefano, and her story, but we all was left wondering about Marco Kastanopoulis. In Switch you will get Marco story. This story was wonderfully written. N.M Catalano has done an amazing job. I enjoyed this story immensely. I love Marco and Elizabeth thing are not perfect in their relationship. Elizabeth is holding back giving herself to Marco completely she has been hurt terribly in the past and she senses he is keeping something from her she just doesn't know what.


Marco avoids telling her anything about his past and that makes everything more suspicious for Elizabeth. Accidently Elizabeth makes a few discoveries about Marco past that leaves her questioning her whole relationship with Marco. All the while Marco is dealing with someone out to sabotage his project having permits held up putting him into a situation where he could possible loose everything he has worked for.


Switch is a fast passed erotic read one you will not be able to put down..

I can not wait for Elsie story.





Excerpt


I focus in on the sounds of the tempo of the music, the different notes as if played on my bare flesh and it pulses inside of me, fast, slow, high, low and I’m riding it, soaring with it as Marco begins this newest experience of extreme pleasure. Take me, baby, I want to soar. There is something gliding softly across my skin over my breasts and stomach, down my legs and over my sex making me clench and I hug the balls inside of me, oh, yes. Again. It begins to stroke me faster, up and down my body, then up, flicking my nipples, and then, FLICK on my sex nipping my clit. The jolts spasm through my body as everything tenses and I grab onto the balls tightly inside my *****. Ooooh, yes, I feel my orgasm building. There’s a long moan. I realize it’s coming from me. ‘Please, Marco, more,’ the words are chanting in my mind. The licks across my skin are getting sharper, nipping, stroking, biting, all up and down me, on my breasts, then it bites my clit. “Aaaaaahhh!!” Yes! Yes! Yes! My mind is screaming. I’m so close. Then nothing. No movement, no sound, nothing except for the music and my heavy breathing. “Please, Marco,” there is so much need in my voice. “Are you ready to cum, baby?” His voice is very raw and deep, not like I’ve ever heard him sound like before. “Yes, please, now…” My hands are grasping onto the straps, I’m trying to hold on, to what I’m not sure of.

I have been reading the reviews on amazon and goodreads for both Stranger and Switch. By reading the reviews and seeing the teasers knew I had to read them, so I had added both of them to my to be read list. When I came upon a post on Isalovesbooks review team that they were looking for someone to review Switch, I nabbed it up. I had to have it and to my surprise I was able to get both books. I was very excited.

You have to read both of the books to get the full story about them. I loved both of these books. In Stranger you get to know how they met, there history together and how they deal with Elizabeth's obstacles. Than there is Marco who know's how to get what he wants, how to please a woman and worships Elizabeth. Beyond that he is still a mystery waiting to be solved.

In Switch is where we get to know about Marco and what makes him tick. Marco is a bussiness man that is trying to get a huge project set into motion. He uses the project to spend more time with Elizabeth. There is someone that is trying to sabtoage the project, he has been working on. Than there is Elizabeth that is keeping him in check and helping him thru his frustration with the project. He feels himself losing control when it comes to Elizabeth he can't get enough of her. He wants to make a life with her. She wants that to, but there is still something that she does not know. She needs to fiqure it out before she takes the next step with him. Will his secret tear them apart or make them stronger than ever? We also meet Elsie who is Elizabeth friend that helps her throughout her relationship with Marco. She is going to be the main character in the next book KINK. It sounds like it will be another panty melting read. I can not wait to read it along with any other books that NM CATALANO puts out.

Wow, can you say HOT!

This is the second book to Stranger and it was amazingly hot and sexy! Marco and Elizabeth's story continues as it picks up where Stranger left off. In this book we learn Marco's story and what a story it is. We get both POV's and it was hot and steamy to be inside Marco's mind. "Mr. Bond" did not disappoint!

I loved seeing the characters grow and develop and we met a few new characters as well. I can't wait for Elsie's story!

This book was wickedly hot. Marco is dominant and such an amazing lover!
It was good to read a book without all the drama. Had a little family suspense, but no drawn out issues. Loved that. Just good and sexy!
They had great chemistry.
Can't wait to get my grabby hands on the next set of characters.
I am stalking the author on every social media to write faster!!!!

This series keeps getting better with each book. Marco and Elizabeth's journey continues with their passion growing stronger everyday. Marco is harboring some secrets that are weighing on his heart and he soon learns they are better in the open. Elizabeth is head over heels in love with Marco but not sure he feels the same. The sex is unbelievable between them but there's more than just sex in a relationship. Marco is obsessed with her and shows her how much he's attracted to her but Elizabeth is not sure if it's love. Their journey is one that you don't want to miss.

~~~~~~~~~~Zarah's ★★★★✰ Review~~~~~~~~~~

Switch is the follow on from N M Catalano's Stranger, which i absolutely loved.

Elizabeth and Marco are the perfect blend of alpha male and sweet, damaged female, both with flaws, insecurities and jealousy's but both stronger together than apart. Throw in some steaming hot sex and you have a winner in my book. We are also introduced to some pretty hot secondary characters in this story and i hope that we see more of these guys in the future,

This story had me enthralled, the author built the suspense so brilliantly that i just couldn't put it down. I was desperate to find out what secrets Marco was hiding and i was not disappointed - totally blown away. I found myself trying to guess what was going to happen with the little changes here an there in the plot, but in the end it was not what i expected.

This was a masterful bit of writing and the ending is not something you will see coming.

Loved it.

~~~~~~~~~~Dee's ★★★★★ Review~~~~~~~~~~

The story of Marco and Elizabeth is completed. This book is ten times more exciting than Stranger and that book was out of this world. The author is clever in building up mystery: what is in those boxes Marco has hidden in his closet? Why does Elizabeth's intuition warns her to be careful entrusting her heart to Marco? Who is trying to bankrupt Marco? And why? What about the woman from his past? This has been an engrossing reading experience. The mystery and suspense, the "skeletons" in the closet, the emotional ups and downs of an intense physical relationship makes an amazing story. One of my favorite scenes was when Elizabeth took control in the bedroom to prove a point. I swear I heard the "Hallelujah Chorus" playing in the background! All the different threads woven by Catalano makes for a beautiful tapestry of emotions and entertainment. I was given an ARC by the author in exchange for an honest review. Five Stars.

~~~~~~~~~~Sharlene's ★★★★★ Review~~~~~~~~~~

OMG! This book is so hot that I thought I saw steam coming off of it. Holy moly do Elizabeth and Marco have some chemistry going on or what!?! This is the second installment in the story of Elizabeth and Marco and continues right where the first one left off. The story-line did not have as much excitement (out of the bedroom) in this one as the first but there is a lot more exploration of their relationship. The characters are so well developed that I can almost picture them standing in front of me. I love how they feed off one another. The secondary characters are just as good - that Elsie is one little firecracker! This book delves more into the actual relationship between the 2 main characters. Again, very hot! This is told in multiple POV which I think adds more to the story.

This book has an HEA and can be read as a stand alone but there are some minor things that didn't make sense unless you read the first book.

~~~~~~~~~~Michelle's ★★★★★ Review~~~~~~~~~~

HOLY AMAZA-BALLS…..”Switch” is the 2nd book in this series (You have to read Stranger first as that is where we first meet Marco and Elizabeth).

I didn't think I would love Marco and Elizabeth any more than when we first meet them is Stranger, but HOLY HEAVEN is Marco HOT and I totally want to be Elizabeth. At the end of Stranger we were given a glimpse into what Marco really enjoyed….and well….I kinda threw my ereaders when it ended because I wanted more……Well……here is your more and Catalano does not disappoint in bringing the sexiness that is Marco & Elizabeth back to your ereaders!

I don’t like to give spoilers but trust me when I say you HAVE to read Switch. Marco is one hot alpha who dominates Elizabeth in ways I wanted to jump into the book and submit to him myself. Good GOD I needed a few cold showers after reading it. There were a few bumps in the road, but what fabulous book doesn't have those……Hey….that’s why we read them right?

Catalano does an exquisite job at writing a story that has, not only HOT, PANTIE DROPPING sex scenes, but it she also gives depth to characters that make you love them even more. Her writing is phenomenal and I adore how she brings her characters to the pages.

You are a ROCKSTAR Catalano……and I will FOREVER be your #1FANGIRL

Marco never disappoints!

Ms. Catalano has done it again. Such a steamy and tantalizing read. Once you start reading about Marco you can't put it down.
We were introduced to Marco in Stranger and we get to continue learning about him in Switch. I loved how we were able to get a look into what he is thinking in his work and more importantly with Elizabeth. I enjoyed seeing Elizabeth grow in this book. I love her spunk as well as her ability to rationalize situations and conquer them.
The steamy scenes in this book are to die for. If I could be Elizabeth in this book I would. No twisting of my arm and there should be no twisting of your arm in reading this book. It's amazing. Read Stranger first and then continue right to Switch you won't be disappointed.
Just a side note, I can't wait for John and Elsie's story in Kink!

This book just continues from book 1 Stranger and we follow Marco and Elizabeth through there romantic journey again but this time it's Marco's time to tell is side.
This is a fast pasted book and you just full in love with them all over again. Marco is a dominant man and wants it all everything from Elizabeth, He wants her to summit but she's holding herself back. Marco is a very secretive man and there's something about him but she does not know.
Elizabeth has been hurt before so he wants to know what's going on and she will find out but what she will find will it be worth it.
I highly recommend this book But please read book 1 Stranger first to get a better feel of M&E, this book just turned up the heat more and wow your not left out cold. It's fantastically written and I'm now looking forward to the Next.

The most INSATIABLE duo ever!!!
If I were to give this book a title it would be Insatiable!Marco and Elizabeth just can't possibly get enough out of eachother.The sensual attraction and the sex just oozes out of Book Two "Switch"!These two are so deeply into one another that they can't function properly.Their relationship is taken to a whole new level...one of sexual discovery and absolute connection.Marco realizes that he would do just about ANYTHING for this woman...even submit to her every command in order to keep her happy & satisfied because she demands NOTHING from him and accepts him for all that he is.He proves his absolute love for her in every way possible-he stands naked before her,raw & uninhibited...No facades! N.M.Catalano never ceases to impress me...that is why this novel is worth 5 sizzling hot sexy stars!!!!

Damn. That's one scorching hot naughty talking bossy man. Marco. Holy hotness. You will need more than one cold shower while reading this steamy story. I really loved Marco and Elizabeth together. He adored her and pushed her boundaries. In this part of their story I loved that she pushed him right back. When faced with something that could tear them apart, Elizabeth takes control of her man. In doing so she is empowered in their love (and lust) for each other and it strengthens both. I so enjoyed their story. I can't wait to read Elsie and John's story.

I give Switch 5 hearts!

I really loved the first book. It gave me everything..a little hotness, a story..this book was ok. I love the author and her writing but I felt rushed toward the end. It was still good and hot just not as gripping. I would still recommend it to anyone! I can't wait for the next book!

Although Switch is a stand-alone, I recommend reading Stranger first as Switch continues with Marco and Elizabeth’s story. Elizabeths depth of character was introduced and provided in Stranger. Switch gave so much more and included Marco’s. Lots of intriguing questions are raised and answered as we follow their journey. Elizabeth has lost a piece of herself after her disastrous relationship with Santino. Marco moves into his new condo and wants her to join him but she's not ready yet. She doesn’t really know enough about him yet. Marco is dominant, sexy, insatiable, possessive, caring and creative but who is he. His project is being delayed and is costing him money if it continues he’ll lose everything he’s worked for. Elizabeth is confronted with a shocking truth...first reaction hurt...second anger...third run...fourth it’s time to switch. An inferno of lust and dominance will leave you needing a cold shower or to bring BOB out for playtime.

Switch was better than Stranger

It is always so great to experience the thrill of an even better storyline as one progresses through a series. Too often it is the opposite way. The author wrote Switch in such a compelling manner that I found my whole body becoming engaged. I smiled, my heart fluttered and my stomach dropped during the character interactions. Thoroughly enjoyable read.

So much intensity!

Their love is strong. Their passion is hot! His secrets are deep.

This is the continuation of Marco and Elizabeth's story. It is a simmering, smoldering fire of sensuality. There is fun, erotic scenes and beautiful love.
There is pain, betrayal and the most wonderful switch!
The ending will leave you smiling from ear to ear.

This story is better than the last book, but it still leaves parts out. It was disappointing that there was no follow up on Santino, nothing was done about the way Liana acted and then the way things were handled with Steve.

The story just ends like the author was tired of writing, but it does give an Epilogue five years later, so you know what happens.

OMG....if only I could find me a “Mr Bond”. This was such a great book. I’m going to miss not reading this now that I’m finished. Elizabeth and Marcos were definitely meant to be together and now they’re both living happily ever after.

I liked this book. It was a lot of sexy times and little suspense. I was a little disappointed in how the bad person was handled. I liked the characters added just too bad they weren't there more.
Good book

This book begins perfectly from where book 1 ended, and continues the journey of Marco and Elizabeth...
I refuse to give away spoilers which is difficult as this book is jam packed with twists and turns that will have you feeling pretty much every emotion possible!!!
Just as things are going well, there is a huge plot twist that keeps you guessing right up to the end when all is revealed and yes, you will be compleately gob smacked!!!
As secrets are unfolded, is their relationship strong enough to pull through? Who is behind the problems? Can Elizabeth cope with submitting to Marco? Will they ever get their well deserved HEA? Or will circumstances pull them apart forever? All these questions will be answered and a whole lot more!!!... Also be prepared for some extremely hot scenes that will make your toes curl!!!
Another 10/10 recommended read from Ms Catalano and i am desperate to discover what she has planned next, one thing for sure... It's going to be fantastic!!!
