Slowly, I feel him possessing me.
HER
My entire world changed the second that I saw her in my casino.
She’s a professional gambler. And a cheat. A damn good one… but not good enough. And now she owes a debt to me. A debt that only her body can repay.
I’m restless with lust and need and desire for this thing of beauty not in my possession. My mind and cock are obsessed with her.
When I spank her for the first time, I know that I’m right.
She is the one.
The woman that I’m going to break. The woman that I’m going to train for only my particular tastes. I’m going to shatter her into a million pieces and then rebuild her into everything that I want and need and desire in…
My next submissive.
*****
HIS
Nothing in my life is the same. She has changed everything, simultaneously turning my world upside down while making it right for the first time ever.
I break this woman a little more each day—and she lets me. It’s all part of our deal. But every pleasure that she gives to me brings her closer to freedom. Closer to paying her debt in full. And I’m not ready to let her go.
Ruthless. That’s what she calls me. It’s true. I am a man who will do whatever it takes to get what I want.
And what I want is her.
I could go back on our deal. Force her to stay, risk her hating me forever. Or I could let her go because for once in my life I care about someone else’s happiness more than I do my own.
She is my joy.
She is my pain.
She is my submissive.
*****
THIER
This woman is my obsession, and my world is falling apart without her in it.
I thought I was going to shatter her into a million pieces and then build her into everything that I wanted and needed and desired in a submissive. And I did.
But somewhere along the way, she shattered me as well… and she’s the only one who has the power to put me back together. But that’s an impossible task when she isn’t here.
Her freedom has been earned, her debt paid in full. She’s out of my bed and out of my life. But what she doesn’t know is that she’ll never be out of my heart.
She is my life.
She is my love.
She is my everything.

Really enjoyed this hot erotica with a very obsessed H, one who desperately wanted the h and would do questionable things to possess her. It took him a while to realize he loves her, but he was obsessed from the beginning and would never have let her go. I also really enjoyed the process of seeing him fall hard for her and break all of his previously established rules.
I liked that the h has a backbone and self-respect for herself. I never once felt that she was pathetic and really enjoyed seeing her bring our H to his knees.
This does have some bdsm as the leads' relationship is a dom-sub one, but it wasn't enough to turn me off. The writing was also smooth/fluid.

This is my first five star book in a long time. This is definitely an erotica. Well I wished for a little bit deeper storyline, and angst, it was very well written. This is the story of Tristan and Emma Lia. This is a true to form BDSM story. Tristan is a rich casino owner and DOM and Emma Lia is a card cheat, just like the rest of her family. She is caught in Tristan's casino, and must pay her debt. I think there may be a story about Avery, her best friend and Easton, a fellow Dom. I will absolutely read this author again.

The love he didn't know he wanted to find
Such an amazing story .
Tristan is a Dom, he takes what he wants, & he wants Emma Lia.
Emma Lia is a card counter , but what she isn't aware of is that all the times she has been in Tristans casino he has been watching her. He has been bidding his time until he knows it's time to take her.
The sex is not in this story , but there is also so much love & devotion .
Couldn't put it down, but also didn't want it to end .

Dark and Sensual
Tristan was my favorite person in the book. Yes the book starts with him being a complete alpha male hot mess! But once he makes his decision of wanting Emma Lia, that’s a wrap and the game is on! I love determined and passionate and strong willed men. The author created a wonderful story here and I will gladly support her efforts. I read this on KU but would purchase it, it’s worth the money.

great series
One of my favorites series! Both characters are strong and I like that it has an alternate point of view, each series is very interesting, it keeps me going from pages to pages, yes it has a BDSM element, but very sensual and not so harsh. Tristan can be both dark and soft, love prevails. I would read another book from this author.

So good!
I loved almost everything about this book! Tristan’s a crazy possessive alpha, asshole and I love it 😍. Emma is a sassy, stubborn and tenacious sweet heart and together they're magic! My only problem with this book was Claudia ugghhh 😡! But other than that great erotica read.

Very good read, I could read it again!
Very good nook to read, the characters Emma Kia and Tristan had so much I I 've and their connection is unreal. Love, sex with her was so easy, because Tristan had live in his eyes when he met her cheating in his club. Not going to tell too much more, just read and fall in love with this very interesting couple.

I love reading dark romance, BDSM novels, books. This book I just can't put down. It gets you from the get go. You have to cheer them both on. You want them both to get what they want, or get there way. It will go into my top ten books. It's a non stop read. Don't want it to end.

Commanding
Tristan and Emma Lia, wow what a couple! There were times I wanted to kill Tristan and then fall to my knees at his feet. Emma Lia pushed him every step of the way, I love her for it!

The best I've read in a while
I've tried to write this review 3 times and it keeps disappearing on me when I try to make a correction. Screw it. It's a good book, okay?
