Total Surrender Opal Carew is a collection of hot Novella's totaling about 160 pages. These stories are short but the bring a lot of hotness to the table! Great little bundle of books.
This was a very steamy collection of three short novellas. Although novellas might be a stretch because the second one was just one extended sex scene featuring three brothers and two women. Each one is a part of a larger series but can be read on their own, as they all have an ending. If your just looking for some heat, this is a collection for you. If you want more of a story with the heat, I would recommend some of Opal Carew's longer works.

Opal writes three gorgeous stories. Played by the Master is a beautiful domination submission story. Three is exactly that. Three seeding poles - one very lucky girl. To say more would spoil this story. The Office Slave is Four men to one very horny office girl. Her ever desire is met and satisfied. A five star read for me.
I received a complementary ARC from booksprout in exchange for an honest review.
I loved this book right from the start! I couldn't get enough of it. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants a steamy read with an amazing story to go with it.
Played By The Master: 3 stars.Played by the Master is my favorite of the three. It's hot, but, as with all the 3 stories, too short and has little to no character or relationship development. Jacqueline needs to convince billionaire Race Danner to drop charges against her brother-in-law, so her pregnant sister won't have to go through her pregnancy and raising children on her own. So she sneaks into his exclusive poker game with the intentions of playing him to make him listen to her proposal. She doesn't expect to be swept up into a sexy little game with him, one that takes poker to a whole new level.
Three: 2 stars.Three is my least favorite of the 3 stories. Lori has been lusting after a stranger she saw on the train for weeks now. When her best friend sends her a message that she's getting married, and the hot stranger she's been lusting after is her friend's new fiancé, Lori knows she's in trouble when she has to finally go visit her friend and her friend's fiancé. The last thing she expects when arriving at Marie's house is to get herself involved with her friend's husband (or is it?) and his identical twin brothers. Throw in Marie, who's a kinky woman, too, and basically what Three is, is one big orgy with some dubious acts of cheating (or not, your call. Once you read, you'll know what I mean), lots of penises and vaginas, which took me out of the story, a lot, because there are better, sexier terms for men's and women's most intimate parts, and a sort of sexy, but not completely, but not romantic or realistic or that likable, story that's basically just erotica and not romance. But hey, if you're after erotica, then Three should do it for you.
The Office Slave (The Office Slave, #1): 3 stars.The Office Slave is also basically just erotica with not much storyline, no character development and no real relationship to speak of. It hints at one, but doesn't expand upon it. Apparently, The Office Slave is just the beginning of a serial, though, so that's probably why this seemed so incomplete. Sylvia's friend has helped her set up her ultimate fantasy - being taken by 4 hot, dominating men, business partners, to be more specific. So the 4 men have their ways with her in all kinds of sexy, naughty ways, and she's left really satisfied. But at the end, she's informed there's a 5th business partner, who is apparently the boss, the one who dominates even the other 4 men, the man whose voice is even more dominating and sexy than the other 4. Will Sylvia get taken by the boss, too?
If you like your romances without romance, and just want some sexy erotica, Total Surrender is the set for you. If you're after well developed relationships and characters with romance and love all that jazz, you're better off looking elsewhere.

This was a sexy and hot read! Our heroine shows up to ask the billionaire to save her brother-in-laws job, so that her pregnant sister won't end up with an employed husband and two toddlers. Jacquie quickly learns she is outwitted and still didn't meet her goal. Finally, everything comes together and she snags the billionaire
Two things I had an issue with, one, Race would've done his research on Jacquie before she returned the next day, not the next week, and, he did avoid her, and would've invited her over before she left for work. Other than that, a great story within the trope!
Three - 3 stars
This was definitely hot, but, it lacked any story or connection. I didn't get why Marie was okay with everything, and she didn't explain until after, and Lori thought she was doing something bad, and continued anyways. Also, Marie would've figured out her friend thought she was lusting after her husband, because, duh, triplets!
So, all the stars for the hotness, but none for story, or smarts, of the people involved
The Office Slave - 5 stars
This is straight to the story, no precluding information, just a fantasy come true. It starts with Sylvia getting her fantasy to be an office slave to four men. It starts right away, and she is more than happy with the results. When it is over, there is an opportunity for her to extend this play a little longer, and of course, she jumps at the chance. But that is for another book!
It doesn't end on a cliff hanger, this is a complete story of her fantasy and the men involved. The story does continue, but if you stopped here, you would be satisfied
3 short steamy reads all in one book all with different characters and variations of play. My favorite is the first one, Played by the Master, a story of only two people Race & Jacqueline. Jacqueline goes to see Race to see if he will drop the charges against her brother in law but she doesn’t expect to fall for him and end up “playing” with him and enjoying it. Only thing missing was an epilogue on these two as I would have loved to see them in the future....4 stars The next read Three I was enjoying until Lori thought the man she was with was her best friend’s husband, I considered that cheating, but the scenes were very steamy....3 stars The last read, The Office Slave, was just as steamy and one woman’s fantasy of 4 men using her for their and her pleasure....4 stars All in all all three reads were steamy but were missing epilogues and they all seemed a HFN not HEA’s and no epilogues. *I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book*
This is a collection of three very hot and steamy stories, but not all of them have elements of BDSM.
1 - Played By The Master - 4 stars 2 - Three - 5 stars 3 - Office Slave - 3 stars
The first one was longer than the other two and it really heightened the senses. The heroine was doing her sister a break when she approached the hero and the title was really apt since he's holding all the winning cards.
My favorite is obviously 3 because the menage was wonderfully written and very erotic. It has pseudo cheating which rocked the boat for awhile but we'll later learn there was a misunderstanding.
I didn't like Office Slave that much but I have to admit it was really hot. It was a fantasy come to life and though Sylvia was their "slave", she was satisfied by everyone as well.
2.5 Stars. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.In all fairness I expected a full length book not 3 novellas. Each book was quick to the point and well drawn out sex scenes. Not really any storyline. If you are interested in just the “scene” if you can even call it that, than this book is for you.
I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
In Total Surrender Opal Carew gives us three stories. Played By The Master, Three and The Office Slave. All three are short steamy reads that you are sure to fall in love with. Each however is part of a bigger series that you will want to go out and read right away. However they can be read as stand alone stories. All are multiple partner stories so if this is you cup of tea you do not want to miss this collectionl

Opal made this book very hot and and short. Of course it’s an anthology of 3 different stories but each story has its own, hot, steamy and erotic scenes!
This book is definitely a Erotic Romance Collection of three short stories. Two out of three stories feature multiple partners acting out erotic fantasies. As always, Opal does an amazing job of making each of these stories a hot, steamy read. Each of the three books in this collection is erotic, sexy and filled with passion, but I loved the fact we got individual stories as well that gave us a quick glimpse into different characters sexy lives. amazing set of Bdsm stories that are fast paced and fun.
Opal Carew brings us three very hot, sexual fantasy short stories. They are exquisitely detailed and arousing, so if you’re looking for something hot, quick and to the point you might enjoy this bundle of treats. Played By The Master, Three, and Office Slave are the first books in each series. My favorite in this bundle is Three.
Played By The Master...4 Jacqueline is trying to sneak her way into an exclusive poker game where she intends to seduce needed time speaking with one very important person, Race Danner. Her sister’s husband is in trouble and it’s up to Race to drop the charges. If only Jacqueline can get time to explain the situation. But Race is bored and Jacqueline proves quite a delicious distraction as he shows her how to submit to him. He keeps her quite busy, in fact, where at the end she finally gets his attention. Lots of steamy play. It’s not romance but fun to read. First book in the Mastered By series.
Three...4.5 This was one fantasy tale that came true for Lori, well, sort of. She spies one gorgeous man from across a subway, and thought perhaps he’s noticed her, too. After weeks of having erotic dreams of this stranger, she learns her best friend, Marie, finds love while on vacation, and after a whirlwind romance ends up getting married to Drake. Marie sends Lori a selfie of herself and her husband. Lori is dumbstruck as she gazes on a photo of her best friend and her husband, the man that has starred in all her erotic dreams. I love how Ms. Carew weaves this story thinking that Lori has lost her dream man and a chance at love. But Marie’s husband, Drake, is one of triplets….and let the sexy fun begin. Everything that happens to Lori is wild and over-the-top sexy fun. Don’t think too hard, it’s erotica and a fun fantasy read. Three is the prequel to Three Men And A Bride, Marie’s story. At 50 pages it packs lots of sexy goodness, just wished it was longer.
Office Slave...3 Sylvia’s fantasy is about being an office slave to four men. Her friend sets up this possible scenario and Sylvia can’t believe the handsome men that will fulfill her fantasy. Wow! Lot’s of sex scenes and not a lot of depth but fun to read about a four guy fantasy role playing if this is up your alley. I did find some discrepancy issues of continuity which threw me off focus, but not too much. Like, Neil taking her panties at first, but then later it’s mentioned as being pulled aside for some play. And, Mike being in a suit, but then later pulls up his jeans. Anyway, this is the first book in the Office Slave series. Next book, The Office Slave #3:The Boss, Sylvia meets the true Dom of the group, the fifth partner of the business.

This is an anthology of three separate Opal Carew Stories: Played by The Master; Three; and The Office Slave. Comprised of some of Opal's older work, each of these stories are erotic, quick reads perfect to replace an evening of watching television, and each can stand alone providing a satisfying sexy read in an approximately 2 hour time period.
Played by The Master
Our heroine sneaks into a billionaire's private poker game to beg for mercy on behalf of her brother-in-law who inadvertently got himself in legal trouble. Concerned that her pregnant sister will be left to fend for herself, our heroin takes it upon herself to attempt to convince our hero of her brother-in-law's innocence. Because our Billionaire loves games, he bets our heroine for his time and a game of strip poker ensues. The premise is sexy and entertaining. Some light bondage is involved. Will our heroine ever get the chance to plead her case or will she simply be used and tossed aside? This is one book in a world of books that appears to have cross over characters, but this story does stand on its own.
Three
This book has us all wishing our best friends gorgeous husbands had twin brothers who all like to share their women! Lori is avoiding her best friend Marie because Marie has married the handsome stranger Lori has been having erotic dreams about for these past few weeks!

THE OFFICE SLAVE
Her ultimate sexual fantasy brought to life...
Sylvia loves to read erotica, and after her latest read, she’s developed a sizzling fantasy about submitting to the sexual whims of four incredibly hot business partners. Never in her wildest dreams did she think she’d have the opportunity to live out her fantasy... until her friend decides to make it happen. Now she’s about to become an office slave… to four hunky men she’s never even met. But faced with the reality, can she actually go through with it? Review, spoilers!!!: PLAYED BY THE MASTER I`m not sure it was supposed to be funny, but I have laughed reading this story. Jacqueline seems so naive. Stripping like it`s nothing for a stranger. It is a hot story about domination and submission. I love reading about Alpha`s and Race is a top Alpha nomnom.
THREE Wooow 1 woman and many many many brothers…. Hot damn, this story is scorching hot. Read about Lori and her fantasies about her best friend`s husband…. Be prepared to need new panties.
THE OFFICE SLAVE Sylvia has a fantasy, she wants to submit to 4 business partners. And boy to they deliver. But the story doesn`t end there. I need to read the rest of this story.
What I liked: PLAYED BY THE MASTER An OTT Alpha, a naïve do-gooder. HEA like I need. I love the way Race gets his woman.
THREE Ménages! I love ménages, with hot Alpha`s even better!! OMG this story is Hoooooooot, with a capital H.
THE OFFICE SLAVE 1 woman and 4 strangers o my…. What isn`t there to love.
What I didn`t like: PLAYED BY THE MASTER Jacqueline seemed to naïve and thinking about it, she puts herself In danger without thinking about it. I mean why didn`t her sister do this for her husband… yeah I know it would be a different kind of story if it was the sister.
THREE The fact she was willing to cheat with her friend`s husband.
THE OFFICE SLAVE Why didn`t the Boss get in with the mix?
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
**Received ARC for a fair and honest review** Total Surrender is a group of three short hot/steamy stories; Played by the Master, Three and The Office Slave. Played by the Master I'd rate Played by the Master at 4 stars. Jacqueline's sister Ella is in a bad position, her husband worked as a CPA for Race Danner and let someone use his computer. When they used his computer they stole from Race Danner. Now Jacqueline is going to go to Race and see if she can get him to drop the charges. This is a fun hot/steamy read, down and dirty from the getgo. They mention Race being a Dominant, and they engage in BDSM/Kink-- but he ties her up and blindfolds her and no safe word? My other issue is how fast they go from strangers to relationship/more after just two occurrences of intimacy, not dates or anything. It is a fast hot read and it was fun. Three I'd rate Three as 3 stars. Lori was invited on a singles cruise with her friend Marie. Due to work and financial issues she was not able to go. While there Marie meets the man of her dreams and decide to marry after a week. When Marie invites Lori to meet her new husband and a friend she can't get out of it and worse is the fact that she had bumped into him a few times and was interested in him/lusted after him. **SPOILER** So Lori goes to meet her best friends new husband, gets there and Marie is out and her husband is home. Knowing her friend is married to him she still messes around with him?! What kind of friend does that. Then it comes out it was him identical twin. Then later her friend catches her sleeping with Marie's husbands two brothers gets all turned on and wants to see her sleep with the three brothers meaning the two she had already been sleeping with plus her husband?! WTH?! I guess that's my own issues, just not a fan of supposed best friends sleeping with significant others even though it wasn't at first, but she thought it was.... The Office Slave The Office Slave is a down and dirty fantasy. Sylvia tells her friend about her fantasy and the friend sets it up for her. It's every bit what she wanted and more. This book I'd rate at 4.5 stars. It was hot, steamy, no cheating or weirdness, and just fun. I really enjoyed it. It was just the right amount of information. If you like hot/steamy and multiple people you will enjoy this story! Overall I did enjoy the book and would recommend it. Hope this helps! Happy Reading!!!

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. This is anthology, featuring Played By The Master where Jacqueline is trying to see her brother-in-laws boss to let him know the circumstances of how money stolen from the company when he loaned his computer to someone who hacked his passwords...she infiltrates a poker game where Race Danner is hosting a private poker game. He has been bored lately so when he sees Jacqueline, Race knows she is not there for the game, as he invited all the attendees. He offers her a private game, where she loses $200 plus the dress she is wearing. He promises to talk to her when she delivers HIS dress as he loans the dress back to her to wear back home. She comes back with his dress, and they have sex, but no talk...so she waits until he has another poker game and shows up again...but you will have to read the story to find out what happens... The second story is Three where Lori has spotted a man waiting for the subway, but never approached him. He is literally in her sexy dreams at night. Her friend texts her to invite her to a wedding, where she marries Drake, the man Lori never approached. Lori avoids her friend Marie, not wanting to be jealous of her marriage, but goes to their family vacation house where Marie, Drake and Drakes' brother will be. She is out by the pool when she sees Drake..who comes on to her, but turns out it's his brother Craig. They have sex, then another joins in, looking just like Craig, so is it Drake??? No it's the third brother, Abel....but will have to read the story to see what is going on... The third book is Office Slave where Sylvia gets her four men fantasy. Her friends set up with some friends that used to work with him that started their own company. Mike, Slade, Neil and Granger work together with Sylvia being their slave for the day. The first thing they do is make her remove her skirt and blouse, then take her to an office, where she has to remove her bra and panties, gives Neil and Granger blow jobs, after they switch positions and then goes to another office where she meets Mike and Slade. Mike has sex with her, and then another comes in ....but will have to read the book to see who gets what position....
Collection of 3 short sexy stories. The first story is Played by the master. A story about Jacqueline who's brother in law is being charged with theft. Jacqueline's sister Ella asks her to intervene and try to get his boss a Mr. Race Danner to drop the charges. Jacqueline is having no luck getting a meeting with Mr. Danner so she shows up at his poker game, where he takes one look at her and is intrigued. He plays some games with her and gets her to submit to him for a night or two. Jacqueline is falling hard for him and now doesn't want to even ask the favor she initially sought him out for. I liked this insta-love story, it was a total standalone HEA. The second story is Three. It is about 3 brothers but is not a standalone but book 1 in a 3 part series. Lori has been having lustful dreams about a stranger she has seen randomly on the subway. Her best friend Marie sends her a text from her singles vacation that she is getting married to someone she met who was also on the singles vacation. Marie sends a photo of her and her new husband, who happens to be the stranger Lori has been fantasizing about for the last several months, or so she thinks. Lori tries to avoid her friend and her friend's new husband until she finally cannot get out of spending the weekend with them. There Lori finally meets whom she thinks she has been fantasizing about and his look-alike brothers. Very hot and steamy read and does not end on a cliffhanger, but does leave you wanting to read the rest of the series. The third short story is The Office Slave. This is also not a complete standalone. But the third book in the Red Hot Fantasy series, and the first book in the 7 part Office Slave series. Sylvia's friends have had their fantasies come true and now have set her up with her own fantasy. Sylvia's fantasy is to be an office sex slave for a day. Her friends know 4 former strippers who now co-own a tech company where Sylvia's fantasy will come true. This book is just the one day of holy hotness. It does end with a cliffhanger and the possibility for one more day, and one more co-owner to come. ARC review.
I am voluntarily writing this review for this book I received through arc on Booksprouts
Played by the Master,
Jacqueline wanted to help her sister out so she was going to see Mr. Race Danner at his by invitation only High Stakes poker game. He was taken with Jacquie he tells her than he'll play Poker with him in private. They start to have a fling a she is loving the BDSM play. He leaves and he doesn't get in touch with her and she is angry she goes to the poker game again.
Race takes her to his penthouse and said he would talk to her but they wind ups having really hot sex. When she finally wanted to tell him why she was there he told her that he took care over everything.
Three
Lori was having this erotic dream about this stranger whom she saw just once across the subway tracks. Her best friend went down to Costa Rica for a singles tour when she meets Drake. She asked Lori to come down for her wedding. Lori sees the picture of her friends new husband and she couldn't believe hiswas the man from the subway.
Marie kept bothering Lori to come and see them but Lori felt guilty. She finally goes there to have dinner with Lori and Drake and didn't know if she get through the weekend. The next day she finds a note from Marie that she went shopping. Lori had the house to herself so she decided to soak up the sun she was lying on the lounge chair. She hears a mans voice who tells her she needs lotions on her when she turns around and see Drake. Twists turns hot sex and and a big surprise for Lori.
The Office Slave
Hot story about a girl named Sylvia. Her friend Becca sets her up with some friends who will make sure her fantasy was fulfilled. 4 gorgeous men making her the office Slave.
Meeting the four men was very exciting especially one called Slave. Each man take turns having her in all sorts of way. Sylvia also liked Bad Boy bikers and Slade fit the bill.
After working out her fantasy the men get a call as they were saying goodbyes when one of them gets a phone call from the boss asking Sylvia to talk to him...they set up a meeting.
Played by the Master Desperate to help her sister and brother-in-law, Jacquie attempts to persuade billionaire Race Danner to aid them. This isn’t the type of story I typically read—I tend to stay away from billionaires—but I adore Opal Carew’s books. Played by the Master reads very much like a fantasy, which is how I reacted to it. There’s not much character development and I didn’t find it realistic at all—to me, there’s no way Jacquie would jump into BDSM with this guy she’s just met (altruistic reasons driving her or not). That being said, the story itself is quick, dirty, and enjoyable enough. Rating: 3.5 stars
Three This story left me feeling quite confused. It’s not what I thought it would be, which was a ménage story involving the main character (Lori) and three brothers. While it’s definitely a ménage, it involves a total of five people when Lori’s best friend (newlywed Marie) gets involved in the action. Say what? As with Played by the Master, this story definitely reads like a taboo fantasy, but the surprise orgy with the best friend seemed to show up out of left field. The ending was also rushed. I’m still confused about this one. Rating: 2 stars
The Office Slave This is an m/m/m/m/f (that’s right, four men) ménage story with brief m/m elements. It’s Sylvia’s ultimate fantasy to submit to four men, so her friend arranges the scenario. I’m not crazy about the “slave” fantasy, but in this story it’s what Sylvia wants more than anything, so really it’s all her idea and she’s in control of the situation. Also, out of the three stories in this collection, this is the only one that mentions testing and birth control, so points for that. This story is definitely a setup for future installments. Although it has hot moments, I didn’t connect with any of the characters enough to want to continue the series. Rating: 3 stars
I received an advance copy of this book from Booksprout.
Each of the three short stories have a unique quality about them. There was not a single moment when I could be distracted from the reading process because it really hooked me deep. Even thought they are not long stories, each was as better as the next or previous, depending on the order in which you choose to read them. That's another point for this book, you can read the story that calls you the most first, then go to the others, because I can almost guarantee that you won't want to stop until you don't have anything else to read.
Played by the Master Race and Jacquie are quite the couple in this short story. He has all the power and she wants something from him, but Race leads her into a game of cat and mouse that it's not only entertaining but also very sexy. He pushes her and she let go of inhibitions slowly, as slow as you can when you are in a short story of course, and she ends up happy with the man she wants at the end.
Three For this short story I have to admit I was not expecting what happened. I did know it was a menage of sorts but damn, Opal Carew really surprise me in this one. Just like the previous story in this book, the assortment of characters was very well done, even with no much background it was just the right amount of info to get to care for the main ones. Lori got to have sex with triplets because her friend was nice and horny enough to allow her husband to fuck her with his brothers. I can't say I was comfortable in my wet panties while reading this because it would be a lie.
The Office Slave Holly freaking shit. If I thought the previous two short stories where hot, this one took the price. I love me a good menage story but this one was simple outstanding for being so short. The scenes were so well written that I was just in awe and I barely sit still until the end because really, sex on top of a bike?! *fan herself with a hand*
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review
What a great book set. I just love Opal Carew’s writing. Each story made long for the other books in the series. Especially “ The Office Slave”
Played By The Master;
Jacqueline Bell is a strong beautiful woman who loves her family and is willing to do anything for them. Her brother-in-law gets into some trouble and Jacqueline cannot stand the thought of her sister having a baby and raising 2 kids on her own. So she goes to Race Danner who is a successful billionaire (who also holds the future of her brother-in-law in his hands) and asks him for help. The moment Race sees Jacqueline he knows he has to make her his, but wants to have a little hot sexy fun along the way. You will find hot steamy BDSM sex, love, and sacrifice in this story. I love each and every character.
Three:
This was such an awesome story. Here Lori was dreaming and fantasying about this guy she had only seen a couple of times.
The one thing I love about this story is the twist you have along away. It is has some surprises along the way. I love when she went to the cabin to spend time with her best friend that just got married.
Lori comes face to face with her dream guy and finds herself having one amazing sexual pleasure with her best friend”s brothers. Yip, I said it brothers as in plural.
This book is truly hot and steamy and you might need to either have toys on hand or take a cold shower afterwards. So recommend this story.
The Office Slave:
Do you like the bad boy biker guy, how about the shy guy, or maybe one that knows how to take charge. You get that in this story and so much more.
Sylvia was going to get to live out her fantasy with 4 hot guys. This men were sex on legs. They knew what she wanted and how to push her the way she need to be pushed.
I loved all the men in this story but my favorite was Slade. What can I say I have a think for bad boy bikers.
By the time I got done with this book I was craving book 2 and 3. They are defiantly on my TBR list.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. This is a collection of 3 stories. The first is PLAYED BY THE MASTER and is about Jacqueline and how she tries to get into an exclusive poker game to me and talk to Race Danner, who is a billionaire and owns the company her brother in law was fired from and is facing legal matters. She desperately tries to help her pregnant sister and hopes that she can convince Race to drop the charges. She gets into the poker game, but finds herself playing a much more intimate and private game with Race where the stakes are very high and very different than what she expected. I enjoyed this short story and the steamy scenes and would recommend this one. The second is THREE and this one is about Lori who seems to have erotic/sexual dreams about a hot stranger, but in actuality she believes the stranger is her friend Marie’s husband and she feels guilty about it. As a result, she tries to steer clear of both of them, but finds herself not being able to get out of a weekend cabin getaway. Fast Forward to a sexy hot tub adventure and steamy scenes b/w Lori and the fantasy man in her dreams. Not everyone is who they seem and it turns out that Marie’s husband has not 1 but 2 brothers and they all have sex at the cabin. This story was okay, certainly steamy, but the storyline just wasn’t my cup of tea. The last was THE OFFICE SLAVE and involved Sylvia who likes to read erotica and has developed a fantasy about her being the sexual slave of a bunch of hot business partners in an office. I didn’t think I’d really enjoy this one based on the premise, but it turned out to be a fast and steamy read. Sylvia is the sexual slave of 4 men and in the end, the opportunity arises where a 5th more mysterious man comes into play. Overall, fast and steamy reads that I enjoyed.

Played by the Master: Despite what the Amazon page count says, this is very much a short story. For a short erotica story it's actually pretty good. It wasn't just sex scenes, there was actually some tension between the MCs. If you can loose yourself in the fantasy of the story, it is enjoyable.
Something that I'll admit had me wondering is when Jacqueline first meets Race, she didn't know what he looked like. If I knew I was trying to meet with someone to ask for a large favor, I would at the very least look up some information on him. She goes to all the effort to find a way into the poker game (after she's been calling his office) and she didn't at least do an Internet search on him? Also, I'm not sure I really by a long-term relationship for these two, there just isn't enough of a story for me to see compatibility outside the bedroom for these two.
Three: This one hit too many of my "NO" button for me to really enjoy the story. For too much of the sex scene (which honestly felt like the vast majority of the story), Lori didn't actually know who she was having sex with. She actually thought it was her best friend's husband she was sleeping with (which came across way too close to cheating for my taste).
Office Slave: This was my favorite of the 3 stories (even if the ending is a bit of a TBC). Sylvia gets a chance to act out her fantasy, but the story show care in the setup (the safe word, that the guys are strangers to her but still vetted by someone she trusts, even the way the guys treat her). I thought for a short story there was a lot of elements that came together very well. I'd be interested in reading the next story.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. I got to say this book was packing a lot of heat. From sweet, to sexy to hot as sin, it has it all! As the stories go on they get progressively hotter.
Up first is Played by the Master
Hot, sexy and sweet is the best way to describe this story. What started as a game for Race turned into something different when she starts learning about the woman she really is. While seeing how he toys and challenges her was hot, watching him fall for her was even hotter. For Race, she was the perfect mix of submissive and something special. One knows he could care about.
Jacquie saw Race as a means to an end. A way to save her sister’s family. When she catches sight of Race she can’t deny the attraction. She easily falls into her submissive role but in doing that falls for the man who has more than the fate of her family in his hands, she has his heart.
Loved this story to no end. Sexy and sweet making my heart go pitter patter.
Next is Three
Ever feel attracted to someone you saw just in passing and then have fantasies of that person. What if those fantasies turned into reality? Ever wonder what while have happened? This story plays that out for you but adds a WHOLE lot more spice to that fantasy. Grab a cool towel to put on your head when reading this one cause...damn!
Last is the Office Slave
This is a hot little number. Sylvia gets a chance to live out her fantasy to be with four men. Does she ever. This one had me turning on my fan and pointing it straight at me. This one is a mouth drying, throat clearing, son of a good time.
This was a quick read that will have you thinking dirty thoughts long after you turn the last page.

Played By The Master
Jaqueline is trying to help her sisters lousy husband out of concern for her sister. In order to do that she has to get a opportunity to talk to Race who is the man that can help her brother-in-law. When she finally gets to talk to him she can’t resist him.
This was a good short story with some hot scenes. It’s a easy plot and the writing style is easy and straightforward which makes it a good and enjoyable read. If I should question one thing it’s the trust issues when it comes to the interaction between Jacqueline and Race, she trusts him to quickly in my opinion.
No unnecessary descriptions of surroundings and lots of dialogues is a good bonus.
The characters are well described but I think they could been even better with more feelings involved.
I recommend this for a light evening read if you look for something entertaining and hot.
4 stars 🌟
Three
This was a short intense story that don’t have a deeper meaning other then entertain. I don’t have much more to say than if you enjoy short dirty stories you will like this one.
4 stars🌟
The Office Slave
Volume 3 of the Red Hot Fantasies series
This was a great hot story however the end is a little unfulfilling for me. However if you like a steamy hot story with lots of sex this is for you.
Again this is a story that is made for entertainment only and for that purpose it’s perfect.
Personally I like a little more meat on the bone but it’s
This book is a quick read with three erotic short stories. Played By The Master - Jacqueline needs to help her brother-in-law stay out of jail. Her sister is six months pregnant and needs her help. Race Danner has a weekly poker game but has grown tired of the games. He needs excitement and finds it when he see Jacqueline walk in the door. He offers to play a private game with just the two of them. Will Jacqueline convince Danner to drop the charges or will she find more than she bargained for in this game if chance? Three - Lori has been having dreams about a guy she only saw from a distance on the subway but never meet. When Lori gets invited to her best friend's house after her marriage she realizes that the guy of her dreams is Marie's new husband Drake. When Lori is out sunbathing Drake comes outside to put sunscreen on her but he says his name is Craig. Is Lori seeing double or is Drake lying to her or could she be possibly in for so much more. Office Slave - Slyvia has been having a fantasy that she becomes the Office slave in order to keep them from prosecuting her brother. Little does she know her best friend has arranged for her fantasy to come true. Will this fantasy be everything she hoped four and will she walk away still the same. These books are super high on the steam level. If you like reading erotic stories you will love this series of short stories. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
I am volunteering to leave a review for an ARC of this book from Booksprout. Played by the Master: Jacqueline and Race. Wow. She needs to join a poker game to get Race to drop the charges against her brother-in-law who has his thrid child on the way. Race, playboy, knows that this woman can relieve his boredom. The hot scenes in this book, whoo. Three: Lori fantasies about her best friend's husband, Drake, who she has seen twice on the subway. While laying out in the sun, who she think is Drake drops by, but it is not Drake, it's Craig, his twin brother. And, oh boy, is he ever attracted. Crush on Drake, remember. She ends up in a very heated, unbelievably sexy encounter, and along comes Drake!!! But wait, then Maria, her best friend walks up to the incredibly sexy scene of Lori, Craig, and ??? (Abel, the triplet) with her husband Drake. Marie is not selfish, and says she wants to see the erotic scene of Lori with those three handsome triplets, oh my. HOT! HOT! HOT! The Office Slave: Sylvia has read a book and just cannot get a fantasy off her mind. Her friend indulges her. Her beau, Cal, knows strippers from his college days that will indulge Sylvia's fantasy to be submissive to four sexy business men. And, oh what a fantasy come to life. Neil, Granger, Mike and Slade keep their new office slave very, very busy. Oh, la, la, this one is STEAMY! Looks like I am hooked.....
I was given this book for my honest and unbiased opinion it wasn't just one book by actually 3 in one all different and had nothing to do with each other. Other than sharing space in the same book. Played by the master is the main book of this its a true love book trying to save her brother in law from jail saving her sister from bringing up kids on her own she plays a round of poker to get him to even talk to her but losing the game he demands more than she bargirned for. But a business trip photos spanners in the works and thinking that he has gone back on his word goes and sees him he makes another deal !still him dominate her for one night and he will give her anything that she wants without question. She can't say no but not for the reason of freeing her brother in law but be sure she actually wants to. When it's time to ask the question he tells her that it's already done he knew what she was going to asked because he knew before the buisness trip. Just loved this book!. Second book is called :THREE And was confused for the most part was she daydreaming just didn't get it Third book the office slave that was strange to me to got concussed with who people were. Definitely liked the idea main story not the others as extras spoils the over all book and draws attention away from it.
