Blurb:

Winston Biggers wanted a woman he couldn’t control, nothing like his secretary. May Davenport thought that commanding alpha heroes only existed in her steamy romance novels,the opposite of her uptight boss. But when fate brings these two together, they learn that truth is kinkier than fiction.

Review:

I have to give Corporate Seduction kudos for twisting and turning and not taking the plot where you might think it will go. It is filled with humor and intensity as these characters clash and butt heads more than once.

May is a strong character that refuses to be pushed around – too much. Her boss drives her crazy, but she needs the money and benefits to take care of her family. She doesn’t know much about the BDSM lifestyle other than what she has read in romance novels until one of her friends takes her to a local club where men pay to be dominated. I kind of liked May. It was nice to get a glimpse at her emotions and thoughts as she tries to figure out who she is.

Winston needs to do something different and decides to try out this new club someone told him about. When he sees a woman that looks like May, he can’t help but submit –he’s wanted her for more than three years. But, can he suppress his natural urges and give into hers? I’m not sure I liked Winston, but again as he switches from Dom to sub and back again, it is interesting to get a glimpse into the thought process

For most of the book, these two don’t seem to know what they want. These are not natural born submissives or dominants, more like just a place they ended up. For a while, it was difficult to tell what Winston really wanted – a submissive or a dominant. May is still learning the ropes so to speak so she wasn’t sure either. This is an interesting foray into the BDSM lifestyle and how two people see it. There is some bondage, M/f, F/m, clamps, and more.
