Stripped & Bound
Nick Escrow is the most eligible bachelor in the Warnum-Bailiff District. The handsome vet has it all—he’s tall, handsome and intelligent, and portrays himself as the ultimate gentleman. But Nick has a dark, sexual side to him that needs to be fed.
He has always kept these two worlds apart—publicly, maintaining his elite profile by day, but feeding his inner beast and succumbing to his sexual depravity at the hands of a dominatrix, by night.
When Nick meets Kiera, the sweet, innocent admin assistant from the right side of town, she is exactly the type of woman that fits the mould he has created as an ideal partner.
Enter Sue, a woman who can excite and yet tame him, but has a reputation and is not the kind of woman you take home to your parents. With Sue, for the first time in his life, Nick feels free and complete but is faced with the ultimate decision.
Can he continue living a lie, or allow himself to be truly happy?

About the author
Rebecca Moon
4 books40 followersResiding in the outer suburbs of Melbourne, Australia, I have always had a love of writing and after years of stories bouncing around in my head I decided to put pen to paper and Stripped Bare, my first novel, was created.
As a grown woman I am now very family orientated and fairly straight laced, although you wouldn't think so from reading my novels.
I write with the aim of giving people an easy, enjoyable read, and try to make the characters as relatable as I can. And they all have a HEA.
I write my books as series, but each can be read as stand alone novels.

4,5 "Act based on what your heart commands" stars from me!!
The third book of the series didn't disappoint at all, the author created an amazing recipe adding many ingredients creating a very interesting and full of suspense reading. Well who would have thought that a fine gentleman and vet like Nick behind the closed doors of his bedroom would enjoyed primal, raw, hot (i could add many more words about it) things to be done to him by a dominatrix well certainly things aren't what it seems in this story some desires are very deeply hidden never expected them to be unleashed but once done οr provoked (because he didn't woke one day and decided that he wanted to be dominated) then things will become more complicating and confusing.
There are so many things going on here and i don't wanna spoil anything but man some events blew my mind away secrets, twists, hidden desires even and you definitely don't expect some things to happen and when they do boom..explosion (yeah i know it's slightly confusing but
you will understand what i'm saying when you read it).
Everything in his life, every act, every decision it done or taken based on the good profile he must have to the world (politics also) but when the heart and the feelings take decisions it will be very difficult for him go by his well organized plan. As for Sue at first i wasn't very fond of her personality but when she started question herself and her decisions i saw her with a totally different angle, her constant fight with herself gave her character a new meaning in the story and for that reason she became an excellent match for Nick. Definitely recommend the story and i can't wait to see if the author will create a new installment in the series.

For all of his gentle and caring side for animals, his gentlemanly ways and his dashing good looks, the handsome vet had a very dark side when it came to sexual gratification. No one would suspect that Nick liked to be dominated behind closed doors and he paid well for his fetish. With an older brother who had shamed his gentile family by being incarcerated as a sex offender, only Nick had learned what could possibly be the appeal.
Now forced to live a dual life, the side the world sees is that of a caring man with quiet grace within society. He dates accordingly, but is still in need of his naughty fix. The day Sue walks into his life is the day his world will be changed forever. Not only does she make him question what he wants from life, but his brother, Jamie is not the dark sexual monster everyone believed. One family and one son will discover that happiness trumps precisely planned futures and the love for and from one woman is all it took.
Never one to shy from erotic writing, Rebecca Moon has once again, gone beyond searing the pages with passion and heat while sharing a little of what goes on behind closed doors or between the sheets. Stripped & Bound also delves into the budding romance of two people who learn to trust and feel the freedom of letting go. Nick is far from the man in the shadows lusting for pain, he is a man with something missing in his life, afraid to go for what he wants as it veers from the life so well-planned out. Ms. Moon has written with a passion and boldness that both endears her style and her characters to her readers while taking the whispered secrets away from a lifestyle many may be curious about, but rarely venture into.
I received an ARC edition from Rebecca Moon in exchange for my honest review.

This is a great story with a remarkable blend of romance, heat, regret, jealousy, inner turmoil, and a touch of love of animals.
There are plenty of overlapping story lines to keep the pace moving. The unexpected twists kept it interesting, too.
The steamy scenes were hot enough to ignite a barn fire.
If you like spicy romance, this is a must read book.

** Review provided by Kylie from Bloggers From Down Under **
If you’ve read books 1 & 2 in the Warnum-Bailiff series, and like me couldn’t wait for the third book, here it is, and you won’t be disappointed.
Nick has a dark secret that no-one can ever find out. Everyone knows Nick as the towns vet. Always there whenever needed, day or night. He’s also the devoted son, to two loving parents, who want nothing more than to see their son settle down with a nice girl.
Sue has had a troubled past, drama after drama, that was brought on by her own actions and behaviour. But she has since settled down, with the help of her parents and their equestrian centre.
On a very rare night out, Sue and Nick are about to meet, and things are never going to be the same for either of them again.
A fast paced read that will leave you wanting more, and more and more.
This book really does have everything…….
Secrets, lies, friends turned enemies, jail time, political agendas, bondage, revelations, forgiveness, wrongful convictions and so much more.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the other books in the series. Rebecca has a natural ability to draw the reader in and make them a part of the story.
From one Melbourne chick to another……you rock!!!!!
Awesome read
An amazing 5 star read

Stripped & Bound by Rebecca Moon is the third book in The Warnam-Bailiff series. This book is the story of Nick and Sue, although it does wrap up the storyline for Rafe and Keira.
Nick is the proud owner for the Warnum-Bailiff Animal Rehabilitation Centre and Veterinary Clinic. He loves his work. He loves his animals, but Nick loves other things as well. Nick has a "beast" inside him that needs tamed. To tame this beast Nick has taken on bondage and mostly him being bound. Nick never intended to fall in love. He knew one day he would have to marry for the sake of looks, but he would never be in love. Sue has been fired from her job at the daycare. After a year of treatments for her behavior she is back working for her parents at WEC. Sue loves he horses and her job, but she is missing more in life. A chance encounter at a bar brings Nick and Sue together. Their wild, passion filled ride is well documented in Stripped & Bound.
As with the other books in this series I fell in love with Nick and Sue. Initially I didn't like Sue, remembering her past with Jason, Erin, and Joey...but we must all move on from the past. The sexual chemistry between Nick and Sue is off the charts and hot, doesn't even seem like the right word for the relationship. Please check out this wonderful series. You will not be disappointed.

If you read the first 2 books in the series, you met Nick, the kind, gentlemanly vet. He's kind, chivalrous, and all around the kind of guy you bring home to mother. Until you close the bedroom door. He keeps up appearances in public, dating Kiera and fighting his demons quietly. Then he meets Sue who awakens something slightly primal in him. I went into this story hating Sue, but as the story progressed, she grew on me. Nick had my love from the first page and it just intensified with time.
This book is full of secrets, twists and turns that not even the well-read are going to see coming. THe story is encompassing, sexy, and keeps you guessing constantly. I found myself feeling for Nick as he tried to lead a double life and deal with trying to all that was happening. The layers to the characters and plot make you want to hurry to the end, but stop and savor at the same time. Beautifully executed and super steamy.

So if you have read the first two books from the series you will have already fallen in love with the sweet and caring Nick totally hot local vet and my what a gentlemen every ladies dream guy right and that's just what he needs you to see and believe.
Close the doors and the animal is unleashed a desire and primal urge that he found needs fulfilling.
How long can one person live two lives, the life that is expected with a sweet and sassy girl like Kiera everything his perfect side needs and wants or Sue who fulfills the his darker needs and wants.
The story will hook you in and with the plot twists and turns keep you there to the end. I have laughed with this book and had many a jaw dropping omg moments along the way as you wait to see which way Nick will go.
Another fabulous read from Rebecca Moon.

Unfortunately, I just could not get into this story. I tried numerous times and found myself finding other things to do then read this book, which is unlike me. From the blurb I knew it would involve 3 people and I was okay with that. But it was very confusing coming from three different p-o-v’s especially when they weren’t labeled. I also felt like there were too many others thrown into the mix when there were already 3 main characters. I also expected it to be heavier in the BDSM. It was fairly light up until this point. I think there is definite potential for this to be a great book, but it just wasn’t there for me at this time.
