Kara
Six years ago he broke my heart. Now, with nowhere else to turn, I’ve put myself at his mercy. He’s the ultimate alpha male, commanding and controlling, and I’ve agreed to let him use me as his plaything for a week.

Overall 4 stars for book 1 read of
Erotic Romance and Hot Alpha

I’m in. One Week. Anything you want.

I acquired this book as an ARC for an honest review. My first thoughts on book 1 of this series is we have a Hot BDSM book series to look forward too as the series progresses. This story is about Kara and Declan who knew each other 6 yrs. past as Declan worked as a ranch hand on Kara’s father's ranch. They were both attracted to each other at first glance, but Kara’s father was adamant no help was to touch his daughter. Fast forward 6 yrs. and Declan has made a place for himself in the business world where Kara has found herself struggling with the ranch financially since her father's death. This story is told in alternating POV between Kara and Declan, with each POV alternating between the past and present, which I had a hard time following. It made the story progress slowly and when you started reading a new POV  it took a few paragraphs to understand what you are reading, so I would go back and start the chapter again to really try and get into the story. As the story progresses  Kara seeks out Declan for a loan with her father's declining Ranch as a recommendation from a friend. Declan who is obviously our hot alpha male, is shocked to have Kara back in his life, but money if not how he wants to have Kara payback his loan. There is some heat in this story with dirty talk and foreplay but the book hints that Declan is a natural dominant with a taste for the BDSM lifestyle. This story had a very slow incline as I felt it was the setting up book for the series, especially with all the narratives of the past. I think this will be a great series with lots of BDSM and hot alpha dominance, with twists and turns in between. I am looking forward to the rest of the series and to see where the author takes us.
