An Innocent Obsession

Rate this book
Emery’s obsession with Clarke started out totally innocent. Abandoned in an orphanage at a young age, the energy mogul she read about in all the glossy magazines would someday come rescue her. Her own, personal knight in shining armor. But waiting for the fantasy to become real got harder. So when a chance to get much closer to the man of her dreams presents itself, how can she resist? Clarke can’t explain the feeling that the woman of his dreams is just outside of his reach. A mysterious scent lingers in his bed sheets, her irresistible voice whispers in his hallways. When he finally lays eyes on Emery, his life is complete. And if his angel thinks she’s obsessed, she hasn’t seen anything yet.

I'm all for a purely smutty book, but this one went a little too over the top for me. I mean, the hero orgasms from nothing more than a look from the heroine...doesn't exactly scream sexy to me. Same with the heroine, all it took was a touch to her knee. Maybe it's just me but it was just eye-roll inducing how they were with each other. I can say some of the scenes were still pretty steamy and I enjoyed that but as an overall book I just didn't enjoy it all that much.

Overall, if you're looking for an OTT Alpha daddy then this is your book and I do recommend it for anyone that likes these types of book.

This was a solid 4 star ridiculous OTT Jessa Kane book until the epilogue. I mean the girl had an orgasm just by having her knee touched. Fuck if only it was that easy. This is a classic completely fucking OTT JK book. But...the epilogue.....

Here is what I'm coming to realize.......

I'm all for the a little Daddy Kink. That is the nicknames that come with Daddy Kink. Daddy, baby girl, little girl, my princess... You know the ones.

What I can't get down with is the Daddy Kink role play.... You know the role play where the guy legit pretends his heroine is a little girl.. Guys, I just can't. So, if you don't like the role play, just skip the epilogue of this book. If you like it, definitely read the epilogue.

”I would fire every male in the building. Simply for having the nerve to be in the same office where even a hint of Emery’s cleavage was showing.”

Holy Hell! This book is HOT. Here are awesome things about this story:

- Stalking
- Obsession
- Daddy Kink
- Age Gap

“You think you’re obsessed with me, angel? You haven’t seen anything yet.”

Now if you don’t like any of those things this story may not be for you but I was all about it. It’s getting a spot on my coveted reread shelf. The blurb was correct, if Emery thought she was obsessed that’s nothing compared to Clarke. They are perfect for each other and I’m glad they got their happy ending.

I liked most part of the story. I liked it more than I expected.

The story's about Clarke and Emery.

Her father abandoned her at an orphanage when she's twelve, unable to take care of her after her mother died. She started to become obsess with Clarke at a young age and was stalking him the last five years.

He's a successful businessman and she works at his company. She's also his house cleaner. When she had the chance to be near him, she grabbed it and when she walked into his office, he's done. He wanted her and didn't want to let her go. But what if he finds out her secret? Will he still want her?

It has an epilogue.

"An Innocent Obsession" is the story of Emery and Clarke.

Daddy’s body flattens me on the bed, knocking the wind out of me—and I’m filled in one savage thrust of his hips.

A sexy concoction of all my guilty pleasures
-Smut- ✓
-Stalking- ✓
-Obsession- ✓
-Kinda psychopathic behavior- ✓
-Voyeurism and mild exhibitionism- ✓

As well as something I do not mind if done well
-DDLG play- ✓

A Jessa Kane goodie about a heroine who goes to insane lengths to get the hero who she has been forever fixated on, and when she does, all her kinky fantasies come true.

So much taboo. Loved it.
Why 1 star less? I'm not sure I'm 100% sold on age play yet, LOL.

Safe
4/5

everyone is obsessed!!!

2.5 ⭐

Now this is a short super short story.. and the only reason why it's low for me.. i don't really enjoy age play.. i can handle daddy and few things but age play is no for me..

Emery girlllll she was obsessed with Clarke and i mean obsessed like the chick from misery just without breaking the dudes leg lol but then again Clarke was Obsessed also. Soooo both were hooked..
But back to the review.. Emery has spent 5 years cleaning for Clarke and wanting to roll around in his bed and be around him even more so a year ago she applied at his work.. being in filling so stalking from afar... until he sees her in his office and he is sprung.. he wants her and he had her... but Emery is feeling guilty since she knows him and had pictures and little things she took since working for him.. and once they have their night she runs.. feeling he would hate her... and well that's not true he calls in favors after favors to find his girl..
Until the doorman tells him she worked for him.. and BOOM!!
Secret is out but he's not mad.. he's more upset she was alone.. in the world and no one to take care of her...

No ow/om drama, no cheating,  slight drama, sexy time,  virgin gal and no manwhore celebite for 5 years

Recommend- ehh maybe

Before reading this:



After reading this:




Ommfg~~~! This was insane! Absolutely detached from any reality! And I ate it all up 🖤

People complaining it was too OTT and here I am, wondering how erotica will ever be the same if the hero doesn't come from looking at the heroine for the first time 🥺


P.S. This is smut. It's not the same as any other 5 ★ romance. They reside in different categories with different standards and expectations.

If you are looking for a short, sexy and hot read then look no further than this book.

Emery has been pretty much on her own since she was fourteen after her father dumped her at an orphanage. Karen has been her friend for the past five years watching over her and keeping her safe. But Emery has an obsession with billionaire mogul Clarke Carroway, her wall is full of his pictures and she manages to get a job with the cleaning company that cleans his penthouse where she feels the closest to him when she can lay on his bed and now she has a job working in the filing department and today is the day that they are going to be face to face. And by the look on Clarke’s face when he sees her all her fantasies are about to come true but how we he feel when he finds out all she has done to be close to him? Maybe she should be happy with just this meeting and leave before he breaks her heart.

Clarke Carroway has been feeling like something is just within his grasp for the past five years a hauntingly elusive cent lingers in his penthouse and he can’t help searching for and once Emery is stood in his office he has finally found everything that he could ever want. She captures his attention from the first second and he knows that his bachelor days are done she was born to be his and there is no way that his is letting her get away. His possessive feeling towards her knows no bounds and after they spend an amazing night together he knows he will never let her go. But when he awakes and finds her gone there is one thing he knows for sure, he will find his angel and if he has to tear New York apart to do so then so be it.

Fast paced with a dirty talking alpha possessive hero and innocent heroine you really can’t go wrong. Always love an epilogue too. This story contains a little DD/LG play too.

Jessa Kane writes a little ditty that is filled with a dirty talking daddy and a barely legal young woman who is obsessed with her boss. It was hot and obsessive and kinky good. This is one novella that is fast and super steamy. If you like your romances with some daddy-play, you definitely don't want to miss this story. Emery and Clarke’s romance is phenomenal. They bring the heat and the insta-love . Its great!!!


My Rating: 4.7 stars *****

My second Jessa Kane novella and I was not disappointed. Girl has been obsessed with this famous CEO for years and when they finally meet sparks fly.

Do all Jessa Kane novellas have Daddy kink or have I just picked two that do?

Super short and they get right to the spice. It’s insta love ridiculousness and exactly what I needed as a palate cleanser.

Not much more to say, honestly. lol it gets 4 stars from me for the positive experience alone.

Emery por fin va a conocer cara a cara al hombre con el que lleva soñando desde los 14 años. Está nerviosa y miles de preguntas pasan por su cabeza pero lo que no esperaba es que cuando Clarke la viese todo lo que ella había esperando se hiciese realidad.

A ver... Estamos hablando de una autora que ha escrito en conjunto con Alexa Riley así que... SOLO PODIA SER MARAVILLOSO Y A LA VEZ ABSURDO!!! Jajajajajaja la historia es una ñoñada loca de amor a primera vista no, de amor al primer segundo más bien. Me encantó para pasar el rato, no le busquéis la lógica porque esta historia no la tiene solo es... Amor en estado puro y muy muy rápido

Short, hot and dirty read.
Emery has been obsessed with Clarke since she was 14. She collects his photos from newspaper clippings and sticks them on her wall in an orphanage she lives in. She lies to a cleaning company about her age and gets a job at 14 to clean Clarke’s penthouse. Over the years she steals little mementos from his house as keepsakes. Five years have past and she eventually moves up to stripping off her clothing and writhing in his bed when he isn’t there. She also got a job working as a filing clerk in his company and is she finally getting the opportunity to meet the object of her obsession so she ditches her baggy clothes and wears a fitted dress for her first meeting of Clarke. What ensures is a case of insta-lust for Clarke as he has finally found what he's been missing in his life but sensed just out of reach. This is a story with an HEA complete with baby boy and two play rooms; one for their son and one for themselves.
**Warning this book contains elements of dd/lg theme**

This was not innocent at all.

This novella has been poping out as a suggested read on Amazon for quite some time so tonight I decided to give it a go....

How I would describe it in few words? A kind of a cheap porn . Cheap porn and story that gives sick people hope that their obsessions could be reciprocated. Not a good story for them but it did entertain me for 30 min.

Let's say... If I haven't had kindle unlimited option I would not purchase it but as I do I don't really mind spending my time for reads like this one. Free foreplay, right? My partner doesn't mind ;)

When Emery was fourteen years old her father dropped her off at an orphanage because her mother was dead and he could no longer care for her. Shortly after she arrived she saw a picture of Clarke Carroway, the CEO of Carroway-Silver Corporation in the newspaper and she became fascinated by him. In the years that followed she watched his company revolutionize the renewable energy industry. Her fascination slowly turned into an obsession as she covered her bedroom wall with pictures of Clarke from newspapers and the internet. She lied about her age to get a job cleaning his penthouse apartment then started working at his company in the file room part time. At first she looked up to him as a father figure but now that she’s 19 she has other feelings for him. She’s ashamed of some of the things she’s done while she was supposed to be cleaning his apartment, things that could possibly get her arrested. Her boss in the file room is on vacation and Emery finally has her chance to be close to Clarke when she delivers files to his office.

Clarke Carroway is a successful businessman who hasn’t dated anyone in over five years. His board of directors decided he needed a Publicist, but the woman doesn’t understand he hates cameras. It’s been a long time since Clarke has felt inspired or passionate about anything. But when Emery walks into his office looking nervous and drops all the files she’s holding he knows she is what he’s been waiting for. He is completely mesmerized by her and doesn’t wanna let her out of his sight.

Emery is thrilled to finally be with the object of her obsession and is willing to do anything for Clarke. But what will happen when Clarke finds out she’s basically been stalking him for years ? What will he think when he knows what she’s done in his bed when he wasn’t there ? Could an older, successful businessman really fall for a barely legal orphan ?

An Innocent Obsession by Jessa Kane is the story of Clarke and Emery. It's an insta love novella with some dd/lg action and a cute younger heroine and older hero. I've enjoyed reading it.

When Emery Lake's mother died, her life changed completely. Her father abandoned her and put her in a home. While there, she sees Clarke Carroway's photo and reads about him in magazines and newspapers. Clarke is businessman who runs a renewable energy company and he becomes a sort of father figure to her. As Emery grows up, she becomes attracted to Clarke in a sexual way and starts to fantasize about him and her together. Emery is obsessed with Clarke and she goes so far as to stalk him and to get a job at his company. She doesn't expect anything to come out of it but she just wants to be close to him. An opportunity for them to meet presents itself when Emery's boss goes on vacation. Clarke is as attracted to Emery as she is to him only Emery is scared he will reject her if he finds out about what her obsession made her do to him.

4 super smutastic stars!

If you are in the market of an OTT .... well EVERYTHING, spectacularly smutty, 1 hour read then this is your book!

I actually did like this book and appreciated it for what it was. You can't compare these types of books to any thought provoking works of literature or mystery thriller full of plot twists and intrigue... it's complete and total smut. So enjoy it for what it is!
Lets be honest... The blurb tells you about a young girl who has been fantasizing/obsessing about an older man since she was a young girl, then gets to finally meet him when explosive chemistry occurs AND it's only 48 pages....
You ain't fooling nobody...
