Under Lockdown

Rate this book
My boss and I are stuck together.
But he wants me to keep working for him in more ways than one.

I've always had a crush on my hot, rich boss.
But he's too much of a workaholic to pay me any attention.
Or so I think.
Until a city-wide order announces that we all have to stay in place.
And my boss and I are the only ones at the office.
He lets me know he admires my curvy figure.
And that the quarantine means he can't go to his normal club.
Or indulge in his usual kinky proclivities.
Unless I'm willing to help him out.
He says it'll help him work better and we can win our case.
But secretly I'm excited to be of service to him, in any way he needs.
I especially want him to take my virginity.
Yet he says he has to get me good and ready first.
As each day of quarantine drags on, he teases me more and more.
I want him so badly I could scream.
I also think I'm falling for him and that it's mutual.
But am I just being naïve?

It's supposed to be a temporary arrangement.
But when the lockdown is lifted, will we still be under each other's spell?

Under Lockdown is a standalone romance novella with no cheating, no cliffhanger and a very happily ever after.

A note from Jamie: Because you're likely under lockdown, you deserve something HOT to help you pass the time while you stay home and stay healthy. I guarantee this book will push all your buttons and hit the right spot. Enjoy!

First things first; I really like the cover of this book!
Under lock & key is book three in the Quarantine series. This story is short, fast paced and an enjoyable read. I read this book in one sitting and was satisfied throughout. I found the writing style easy to follow, the characters likeable and the storyline enjoyable. After a rough day, Samantha finds herself homeless during Quarantine. Ben has been attracted to his receptionist for a while. When he learns of her situation, he uses it to his advantage.
The chemistry between Ben and Samantha is clear to see and I liked them together.
I really liked the ending and the epilogue for this story.
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and it is an enjoyable read.

This is a fantastic short read about crossing the line. So...what do you do? You work with this extremely hot, muscular, gorgeous specimen of male flesh and you can't touch? Yep, that's the rules you have to follow when you work in this office. Then the COVID19 pandemic comes and you're told you'll be working from home. Okay? No problem, I'll just make the best of being quarantined in my home and unable to drool over my boss. But...what if the boss calls and wants to know if you can quarantine at his house with him. You know, strictly for work. Does the office rules still apply for outside the office? Probably yes. BUT! I didn't see anywhere that it states that the rules must be adhered to while under lockdown." I recommend this book and this author. What a great read.

This is definitely a book for its times as we all are in lockdown why not get a steamy version to keep us entertained

Peter is Macey's boss and she has lusted after him for quite a while but he never notices her That is until a city wide lockdown has the two of them trapped in the office together. He is a dominant and makes her submissive side come out to play but when the lockdown ends will they go their separate ways again or have the found something they want to keep.

A fast fun steamy read that will keep you entertained while in your own lockdown

i read this book as part of an arc program. This is the story of Peter and Macy. When they are stuck together in the office due to a government lockdown, Peter wonders if Macy is submissive. Peter is attracted to curvy Macy and wants to test her to see if she is willing to submit to him. Macy is a virgin and knows the rumors about Peter and his interests and is willing to explore things with him. I liked this book, i like Peter and thought he really cared for Macy, even if he just wanted her to submit at first. They had a great connection and it will lead to more. Good one.

Our couple is forced together by the lockdown, but neither of them seem to mind.

This is a short erotic romance with a BDSM theme. The story is short, well written and easy to read with a pair of plausible and fun characters in a situation that seems almost too real right now. Fortunately, they find a way to relax and get to know each other and the results are very steamy. Add a very nice HEA and you have an excellent evening read.

Highly recommended.

I received an ARC from the author for review purposes.

Turning Their Fantasies Into Reality:
By Korkoi -
The scenes are so vividly detailed and descriptive, that it makes you want to be part of the story. I couldn’t stop reading once I started. If you want to read a book, that will get your panties wet and make you want to have a very cold shower, then I highly recommend you get this book.

I received a copy of this ARC and I am voluntarily leaving a review.

This is a captivating fast paced story. Macy is a paralegal who gets locked in with her boss Peter during the pandemic. During that time she will be introduced to power play. Peter is a dominant and seeing her submissive side makes him crave for a relationship. Their attraction is combustible and the story fun to read. I honestly volunteered to review this story!

I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book
For such a short novella, this story of Paul and Macy , stuck in the office due to Coronavirus is very interesting. Apart from working a case, they have to find other ways to keep busy. A very graphic detail of dominant Paul and submissive Macy. I did love the ending as it gave it some depth and it suited them as a couple

Actually this book was so-so for me. Maybe I prefer the books with more details, I mean, I wanted not only the sexual parts but also more other parts such as dating and the descriptions of the characters.
But I recommend it for the ones who have a-couple of-hour spare time before going to bed or in their days-off. Quite easy to read and follow the story:)

Loved this short steamy read about paul a lawyer and Macy his assistant. They were in lockdown at the law firm for six days and in that time they became master and slave. Paul wanted it for short time but then things changed. What will happen after the lockdown is over?

Under Lockdown

This was an ok story. Premise had promise but the conversation flow was a little off for me. The unfolding of things was also a bit odd to me. I get that this is fiction, an escape but it does need a degree of plausibility.

Good

Another story about the coronavirus. Pretty good book. It is hard to have to deal with this social distancing. Unless you have a hot guy to be locked in with. Yum. Thank you

A short, kinky story,,crosses the line between boss and employee but when there’s a lockdown and you fancy the boss, what’s a girl to do to pass the time? Especially when your boss is telling you what to do? Ok characters. Repetitive in some areas and didn’t feel the love between them only lust.
