Since I was a little girl, I’ve made up stories. I would lay in my bed at night and before I knew what a trope was, I would make up these trope filled stories. Boy sees girl, boys falls for girl, boy saves girl….happily ever after. As I got older, the stories turned steamier and more intricate, but the basics never changed.

Now, my books are still full of romance but the naughty bits are naughtier, my hero’s are obsessed alpha types and my heroines are quirky, real women who come in all shapes and sizes.

So, sit back, banish the real world and get lost in some over the top romance with a heaping helping of hot. xoxoxo

Dark, dirty, taboo step niece/step uncle, older man, with plenty of panty melting interludes! Larissa is kidnapped and sent to Sebastian to "train" obedience into her all because she didn't want to kiss and marry an older man of her fathers choosing before being allowed to go to art school. While training the brattiness out of Larissa, Sebastian realizes she's not like the other girls sent to him and finds himself breaking his own rules. He is obsessed with her happiness, her protection, her pleasure, her obedience, her being his baby girl and him, being her Daddy. Despite Sebastian's dominance, obssessiveness, protectiveness, keeping her for himself, dark daddy vibes, he really is Larissa's dark "white knight", listening to what she wants and allowing her to follow her hopes and dreams. The scorching hot dark tabooness of Exception to the Rule will leave you needing to change your pantys!.

Phew lord this book was hot when it got hot. This forbidden quickie shares the story of Larissa. She needs to be disciplined because she doesn't want to marry someone she doesn't know. Seb is tasked with making sure she is disciplined and that she behaves. She pushes his buttons but as time passes she starts to be obedient. Seb doesn't want to let her go and she doesn't want to go either. I really enjoyed these two because who doesn't love an age gap and who doesn't love a happy ending?.

Exception to the Rule is Sebastian and Larissa's step-niece/ step-uncle HEA. Sebastian demands perfection in every part of his life. Larissa needs a Daddy to give her a firm hand. It was hot and naughty and overall a great read.

I received an ARC copy of this book from the author and I'm leaving my honest review.

Oh boy! I figured out the reason for the title from those first few pages of the book, and I couldn't help but smile. She really is the exception to his rule. She effortlessly gets under his skin, even without trying, which makes for some really intense and exciting scenes.

He’s depraved…

Sebastian trains women to be submissives on a Greek island. His half brother sends his step daughter Larissa to be trained. So, she’s his step niece. Eighteen years watch young for this jaded, depraved much older man. It’s over the top, questionable fun.
Steamy.

ignore the red flags!

Every girl needs a Sebastian. Without spoiling the story if you’ve ever wished to be a Disney princess he will make it come true! Larissa is a lucky girl!
