My Thoughts
Chase and Alexis are scorching hot together. Their relationship isn't in the box for sure. She is his submissive and his assistant. He has had his eye on her since she began in the firm as an intern. When her internship was over she applied for a permanent position which put Chase in the position to claim her. And claim her he did. Chase is a delish bossy man who seems a bit harsh at first, but in time you realize that he is protecting his heart. Alexis is hard to resist and they fall head over heart for each other. I loved that Chase made her feel brave and strong. In her submission, she found strength. Only there's a bit of a complication when they work on a case for a client accused of rape. Alexis is put in danger and they will have to figure out a way to protect her from someone they never expected. I loved the romance and sensuality of their story.
I give Derision 5 hearts!

About the Book
Here at Lark and Gannet, you’ll work directly under the
partners, being groomed by the most powerful, all-male partnership to handle an
exclusive clientele. While within The Firm, your level of training goes deeper,
requiring more…varied tasks, which you’re obligated to perform to your Master’s
pleasing.
Are you nervous? You should be. Chase Larkin has chosen you
to be his submissive.
Alexis Wilde, will you submit?
All I wanted was to save my brother. Something my parents
failed to do—and then, I failed him also. As an introvert, getting ahead in the
cutthroat law firm required a level of ego stroking I didn’t possess, and that
meant my talents were overlooked. Until Chase Larkin noticed me.
My erotic fantasy come to life, Chase is all powerful, all
man, all dominant. In one night, he changed my life irrevocably. Now I’m
ruined, destined to crave him forever. His scent. His taste. His brutal touch…
If I never followed him to his office that night, then none
of this would’ve happened. A serial rapist on the prowl. Our lives in jeopardy.
And only a moment—one pivotal moment—to decide our fate. His life or mine.
*This is a full length, standalone dark romance with an
antihero that may trigger uncomfortable feelings for the reader. The court
proceedings are centered around a rape case. Although there is no onscreen rape
in this book, there are instances of rough sex and violent debasement for the
main character.
Excerpt
Being with Chase—even for the short time that I have—has
suspended my internal clock. Days feels like years, minutes like days, seconds
like hours. I can’t accurately compare it to anything I’ve ever experienced, as
I’ve never experienced anything or anyone like him before.
I’ve watched him at a distance for a year, as an observer,
fantasizing. Longing. Desiring…but never once confusing my reality with
expectation. He was just like a fictional character. I was under no delusion
that I’d ever become a part of his reality.
The moment he touched me, I changed. There was no impact on
him; I absorbed the shock. I’m also under no delusion that I am anything more
to him than what he desires for me to be.
I am his object of derision.
I am his.
A belonging.
And the glimpses he gives me beneath his rigid exterior is
enough to sustain me. Like last night. I’m as equally aroused by his brutal
touch as I am by his tender caress. I crave his harsh declarations just as I
desire to hear his whispered confessions.
If you’re to love someone, love them wholly. You can’t break
them down into pieces.
Compartmentalizing. Trying to puzzle a person into the
perfect, ideal someone. If I belong to Chase, then I belong to the monster as
much as I do the man.
I’m just unsure of which one will finally break me.
