Older widow Delia Barnes greets fellow authors before an erotic romance convention sporting a black eye, which she explains away with “I didn’t say ‘Yes, Master’ quick enough.” Sitting at the bar, burned-out ad executive and former Dom Kurt Reinhardt overhears that comment once too often and interrupts to suggest, “Maybe you need a new Master.”
Urged by her friends to accept the younger man’s invitation to learn some D/s basics—hey, an author needs to do her research, right?—Delia joins him to get first-hand experience at being submissive, starting with removing her panties in a corner booth. Later, she learns more than she bargained for when she spends a weekend at Kurt’s home with his eager business partner added to the mix.
But an innocent misstep brings Delia’s world crashing down around her. Can she trust Kurt with her heart…and her life?
5 angels and A Recommended Read, Fallen Angel Review
“Unconsciously, I’ve lately been choosing stories that have an older-woman, younger-man theme. And of all I’ve recently read, this one has to be the best. Delia knows who she is and what she wants in life. She’s in her prime but still is a little self conscious of her age. Kurt, however, doesn’t allow the numbers game to get in the way of his desire for her. He’s intense, darkly brooding but incredibly courteous of her newly discovered submissiveness. The chemistry between this pair is off the charts, and the maturity they display when facing obstacles is admirable. I will admit to being brought to tears when these two had to come to grips with their pasts. The pain they experienced was visceral.” – reviewer Bella

“WHAT SHE NEEDS…packs a powerful punch. The sex scenes are sizzling hot, and offer a variety of BDSM, Menage, and tender lovin’ scenes. The main characters are brilliant and the chemistry between Delia and Kurt sizzles from the beginning. The storyline is well written and I couldn’t put it down. I look forward to reading more titles from Cris Anson…if you love erotic romance, this book is for you.”- reviewer Christy
