Holly Mills is living the dream, or so it seems. As an erotic novelist, screenwriter, actress, and playwright, she’s juggling too many hats and running on empty. Desperate for a break, she flees to her aunt Daphne, who conveniently happens to work for billionaire Ian McGregor. Holly takes a low-key assistant job at her aunt’s office, hoping to recharge peacefully.
Spoiler alert: peace is the last thing she finds.
Enter Jace Garrett and Gage Hughes, two dominant, irresistible Doms who work for McGregor and frequent his BDSM club, Club Isola. They’re captivated by Holly’s wit, beauty, and submissive energy and they’re not shy about showing it. But Holly’s not just battling burnout; she’s also dodging the pressures of her high-profile career, which threaten to upend her chance at love.
