Everything in the world is about sex except sex.
Sex is about power. ~ Oscar Wilde
Desire. Dominance. Sex.
Ethan Holt is in the business of all three.
He believes that any fantasy can be created,
and that any kink should be explored.
Why wouldn’t he, when he has several of his own?
Control. Ethan has to have it.
In his job at The Office. In his relationship with Zayne.
He's very particular on who he lets in his world,
and even more so on who he lets in his bed.
After all, he’s not the only one who sleeps in it.
Everything in their world is in perfect order,
just the way Ethan likes it.
Until a mysterious redhead walks into their club
and turns their world inside out.
What happens when control turns to chaos?
Do you give in to it? Or do you make chaos…submit?
REVIEW: 4.5+ AND HOLDING...
"But sometimes, even angels fall."
Setting the mood with three truths...and not one single lie:
- I don't do cliffhangers.
- I don't do a lot of Dom/sub reads.
- I will pretty much read anything Ella Frank writes.
And that is the gist of it all.
Lets stress one point - even though this is a continuation of sorts of the Confessions Series, this is completely a standalone series and you do not need to read Robbie, Julien, and Priest's books - but why wouldn't you? That's the question I pose to you...
I first read Ella Frank with her Confessions Series - it was my first, and it happens to be a favorite of mine. I have since read others by her and fallen hopelessly in love with her MMM/MMF/MFM reads and love the way she stirs up the emotions in my heart. She has always given me a deeply devoted love that has me tripping over myself when recommending her books. I am a definite fan! Hands down, hardcore fan.
Having said that...
I am SO addicted to this throuple! Literally, *IN LOVE* with them. I know they are going to leave me with a love hangover like the Three P's did a few years back in the original, yet standalone, CONFESSIONS SERIES. I love the way she spoon feeds me adoration on a gilded spoon with men that just don't fit the "giddy in love" moniker. Zayne and Ethan both display their own characteristics that make them individually and cohesively perfect for Chloé and what she needs...and wants. I love watching their differences roll out on the pages.
The fact that Frank can pull me into a world that I don't really feel comfortable reading - not for a lack of loving the emotions and the trust that goes into it, but I understand and willingly go along with it because she explains it around the characters. That is NOT the characters. It's their world, but she brings me into their thinking and thought processes - and I appreciate that. I won't lie, but I feel like Chloé is going to put them in their place in the way only she can, eventually. And I am here for it. One hundred percent.
The love is addicting. The sex is hot. The storyline is intriguing. This had everything I needed in this kind of story to keep me turning the pages. And I did so...willingly and greedily.
- I am nervous for the direction this series is already headed - especially after that cliffhanger. I think I knew more than anything that this was how it was going to happen, so I loved reading it as it came to fruition.
- I am excited for the possibilities with the next book being Zayne's and how we will get more of his story and background. I want to explore more of him on a few different levels.
- I am slowly withering away waiting for the next one. I'm most definitely on a cliffy hangover. I am not sure how I will survive...
I always feel so lucky when an author sends me an early copy of their book to review and this one, it was the book I needed to read when I got it. My excitement was not containable, and it definitely proved why. I cannot wait to read the next book. ZAYNE is available for PREORDER already - FYI. Merde....someone help me with my patience. It is not my strong suit.

Great review! I need to look on my kindle and see what I might have of her books that I haven’t read, I have a suspicion I have at least one.
