Sofa King Hard

Rate this book
Big. Strong. Really good with his hands.
Great at fitting into tight spaces.
No job too hard. No job too dirty.
No stopping him once he’s unchained…
The Marines made me tough. Prison hardened me. Five long years I’ve been away—chained up like a beast without knowing the touch of a woman, serving time for a crime I didn’t commit.

I’m out now, and the proud owner of Sofa King Movers. I’m supposed to keep my head down and play nice, but that’s before I lay eyes on her.

Jillian Lafayette. Tempting, beautiful, and very off-limits. But five years does something to a man. It makes him hungry. It makes him crazy, driven, obsessed. And when I catch her being a bad girl with her hands where they don’t belong?

Oh, there’ll be no stopping me from claiming what’s mine and showing her just how hard I can be.

I know she’s a client. And her abusive sh*t of an ex-husband has mob ties I can’t pretend aren’t there. But one look and I’m addicted. One taste, and I know she’s mine.

Mine to protect. Mine to keep safe.

…Mine to keep, all for myself.

Five years is a long time. Jillian’s let the leash off the beast, and once I get my dirty hands on her, there’ll be no stopping me from taking it all.


Warning: this one is ridiculously over-the-top and complete and utter fantasy at its finest. Seriously, if you’re looking for realism and long, drawn-out falling-in-love, this ain’t it. This is page-one insta-love. This is wild, reckless, hot as all get-out, and SO much fun.

Go ahead. Say the title out loud and have a giggle. Then get ready for some serious freaking heat.

As with all my books, this standalone novella is safe, with no cheating, and a HEA guaranteed.

Madison Faye

108 books3,645 followers
#1 bestselling contemporary romance author Madison Faye is the dirty alter ego of the very wholesome, very normal suburban housewife behind the stories. While she might be a wife, mom, and PTA organizer on the outside, there’s nothing but hot, steamy, and raunchy fantasies brewing right beneath the surface!

Tired of keeping them hidden inside or only having them come out in the bedroom, they’re all here in the form of some wickedly hot stories. Single-minded alpha hero, sinfully taboo relationships, and wildly over-the-top scenarios. If you love it extra dirty, extra hot, and extra naughty, this is the place for you! (Just don’t tell the other PTA members you saw her here…)

A quick and hot read by one of my favorite go-to authors! Team Kane all the way!

I hope this becomes a series with all the other men (Levi, Nash, Diesel and Ford) getting their story told too!


4.5 insta-everything!

Sofa King Hard (I still can't get over how long it took me to get that title) is a good set up for a new series. If you enjoyed Rough Stuff (or Madison Faye in general), you should like this one too because there's a skotch of mobbiness in there. But mostly, there's instalove/lust, a massive, dirty talking ex Marine/(wrongfully accused) convict, and a group of side characters ripe for their own HEA's. While it isn't my favorite Madison Faye book, I do like it much more than the Sugar County Boys books so that's a definite win in my book. 3 out of 5 wine glasses.

Jillian has been watching the moving company move her stuff out of her ex-husband's house. When she notices a very hot muscled mover she does the only thing she can. She does something nutty while watching him. But when her blind falls and he catches her. What will happen next?

Great provocative story!

What a sizzling resd! Full of Insta-lust, insta-love with steamy heat, red-hot passion and entrancing drama ; this story has everything you could want!! This is the story of Kane , the hunky Sofa King and Jillian, the beautifuland sassy recently divorcee' .
You can always count on author Madison Faye to deliver a sexy, fun story which this story definitely does. I loved the steam, the witty banter, the chemistry between the main characters, and the well written dialogue/story. Overall what a deliciously beautiful and fascinating fast paced read that keeps you interested from start to finish. I do hope there will be more stories from the secondary characters introduced here that were the crew at Sofa King .

Madison Faye never fails to deliver the best become stories... hot little novellas with fast emotions, irresistible alphas, and a whole lot of kindle melting steam that will leave you needing to change your panties...maybe even twice! She always gives me a good, hard, short but so worth it ride, and definitely leaves me fully satisfied every single time.

Sofa King is her latest and it is one you can't miss. She's a new divorcee. He owns the company moving her. One look and one moment through the window changes everything for them and when danger comes it is him who will keep her safe... and claim her forever.

I highly recommend this short little book.

When you read a Madison Faye,you know you are going to have a few laughs and some hot steamy sexy scene! This is the story of Kane and Jilian. She just got divorced and is moving out of her mansion. He is the owner of the moving company taking care of this move. When she sees him all hot and sweaty, she’s a goner. When he sees her watching him, his 5 years of celibacy are now behind him. The story is short, soooo hot with just enough drama coming from her ex Jim. It is entertaining and fun to read. I voluntarily reviewed an arc.

I was trying to ignore the numerous typos just within the first two chapters but the hero was extra rapey. He's been hired to move her stuff, they've never met. He sees her with her hand in her underwear and straight up barges in her room like it's his right because he's been celibate since prison. Just in case anyone is wondering the proper response to being told "you shouldn't be in here" multiple times is not "then tell me to leave." Especially not when you keep moving towards her as a big ass dude. It's sofaking creepy and I have no patience for that these days. Dnf

Take one recent divorcee add a fine as hell mover with a body built for sin an you've got the best sex of your life.
Throw in a vindictive ex and you see exactly what lengths a man will go to to protect what's his.
Fast an dirty, Sofa King Hard is just what I needed for an afternoon pickup.
Just the right amount of alpha and a heroine who wasn't a whiny wimp, just what I needed to get out of my book slump.

I have no problem with insta-love and raw, filthy sex, but I do have a problem with typos and incorrect word usage. Also, I got it the first time the he has a big c*ck, and she has a naughty p*ssy.

You definitely have to suspend belief to enjoy this, and not because they fall for one another instantly

Jillian acaba de conseguir por fin su divorcio de un hombre horrible. Esta a punto de mudarse a una casa preciosa junto a la playa en Malibú y allí piensa pasar una vida relajada lo único que tiene que hacer es contratar una empresa de mudanzas y listo. Sólo que uno de los chicos de la empresa de mudanzas atrae a Jillian más de lo debido, y cuando él la pilla con las manos en la masa 😏 las cosas se pondrán interesantes muy rápido.

Como os digo siempre estos libros son milagrosos para desconectar. Apenas hay drama, amor a primera vista y final ultra feliz. Que más se puede pedir antes de ir a por el siguiente libro que te haga llorar? 🤣

Insta-lust turns insta-love, heat and passion; this story has it all! You can always count on this author to deliver a steamy fun story and this is the perfect example. I loved the heat, the dialogue and the plot. This is the story of Kane and Jillian. Jillian is a fun character show is moving. Her mover, the Sofa King, is Kane and he is more than willing to help her out. Kane is a man, just out of prison who has been celibate just as long. That does things to a man of his personality.

I loved Jillian and her ability to know what she wanted, I also liked that she was just as strong and in control as Kane was. Kane was a fun alpha man. I liked his possessiveness and the bold way he got Jillian. The scenes between these two light my kindle on fire; they were so hot. I loved the little cat and mouse game that Jillian played with Kane and I really loved his response to it. I also liked that Kane was a blue color man and not a billionaire. He was realistic and I love that in my characters. I received an ARC an am leaving an honest review.

do i need 2 go read it again ...i honestly thought it must have some comedy in there? right??!! i love Madison's style of writing ...she just makes u have a inst-steam ...hot read ... u know what you are going to get. i mean duh! she just does that. love it always ... but i wouldn't have thought crime? (but maybe due to the hubby's life style or the movers life style??! i guess i can get or see it there??!) trying not to reveal to much ... folks need to get their own opinions and thoughts. i was laughing due to the light size of it. but maybe it is just me? i love Madison and will continue to read her books because it all. love the cover ...but the name ... i guess that is what makes me laugh too.

This was not my first time reading Madison Faye, but it was definitely the time I got hooked to her.
I've already stocked up and bought a bunch of other books, because you can bet I'll be binge reading them soon enough.


It's hot and filthy and sweet; I.LOVE.IT.


This is the beginning of a new obsession - in the best way possible.

Kane is a good guy through and through, taking the fall for his wayward brother. He and Jillian hit it off with that insta-lust that neither of them could deny. This was a sexy, hot quick read, without the heavy drama between the main characters, but with some twists thrown in to draw you in even deeper! I hope this is a series - Kane's Sofa King buddies need their own story!

Oh how I enjoyed this book.

Right from the very start...insta-love, possessive OTT alpha H. If you're looking for a short safe read that has no cheating, no others after meeting and a HEA...this is it. Madison Faye never disappoints.

Fun, filthy, and f**king delicious. I had a great time enjoying this mouthful of naughty deliciousness. Perfect amount of sexiness, perfect amount of over-the-top alpha possessiveness, the perfect amount of dirty talk.

This was a guilty pleasure.

Over the top hot alpha and his lady

I read this story as part of my Kindle Unlimited subscription.

**spoilers**

This read is short, Hot and exactly what you expect from a Madison Faye book. If you're easily offended, don't read this book. Graphic description of sexual acts happen in this story.

Alpha male Kane, retired Marine, not long out of prison for a crime he didn't commit, owner of a moving company meets Jillian, newly divorced and in need of Kane's moving services. But before long, she needs his personal service too.

There is no long drawn out courtship, it is lust at first site. Kane gives Jillian exactly what she needs and more of what she didn't even know she was missing.

When her ex tries to interfere, Kane steps in. He gets shot for his efforts but eventually wins the girl. Yay! HEA.

I love Madison Faye books. Over the top Alpha males, lots of panty melting moments and quick reads make her one of my favorite authors. ( I hope she gives us a story on Diesel, one of Kane's employees. I could totally see a Daddy/Daddy Dom vibe with him and the spoiled 18yr old client he has to help. - wink wink - )

First of all, this title is great! It fits the novella perfectly. Plus, it's a hot one too.

The plot is good. Jillian just recently got divorced from an arrangedmarriage. Kane is the mover that comes to help. Insta love happens and the ex husband isn't going down with a fight. Someone ends up shot and and someone ends up in jail. 

This novella is extremely sexy. I'm talking so spicy that you will need a cool down from reading it. I really enjoyed it! Both the characters were likeable and the action/drama was good.

OMG!!! Picked this one literally because the title was so unique and made me laugh. Boy was I pleased,try knocked on my butt surprised! Heads up this us not only a super lava level heat all Alpha male sexy tale but the story and character development had me sliding right into the storyline with them . The scorching sexy scenes will have you panting and unable to put the little gem down and the raw emotion will draw you in and have you laughing one minute, yelling the next and cheering on the next page. I LOVED THIS LITTLE GEM and highly recommend it but you should be 18+.

Jillian just divorced her jerk of an ex-husband and now just wants to start over but first she has to pack up the house. Soft King Movers’ has such nice eye candy. Kane is the boss but he doesn’t mind breaking a sweat to help. When these to see each other, sparks fly.

Where can I find a moving company that has hot men like this? These guys are smokin’ hot and the story is too. Jillian and Kane are like Nitro. They go off quick and can’t keep their hands off each other. Expect a lot of body parts slapping. We do has the ex though too. SO there is that. I need a cold shower after this. On to the next book in the series.
