Reading
His Submissive
by
Brandi Evans
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Erotic Romance, BDSM Romance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Raven:
I’ve
spent my life depending on one person: myself. I’ve learned the hard way other
people will only let me down. I’ve worked for everything I have, but thanks to
my drug-addicted mother, I’m about to lose the one thing I’ve craved for years.
Needing to make some extra cash, I ask my boss at Restrained Fantasies, a
Dallas BDSM club, for some extra shifts. Much to my chagrin, Master Carter Burkes
is with him, and Carter leaps to my rescue, bound and determined to save
me—only I’m not the kind of girl who needs to be saved.
Carter:
I
can’t sit by while Raven, a recurring figure in my fantasies, is in trouble. My
job as a detective keeps me busy, but I’m not looking for a relationship, just
a sub to assist with a class I’m teaching: Reading Your Submissive. Raven
always claimed she wasn’t a member of the lifestyle, so imagine my surprise
when I discover a budding submissive inside her. She gets under my skin in ways
I can’t fight, but emotions are dangerous. I learned that the hard way. Is getting close to Raven a mistake? Will I
destroy her life like I destroyed the life of the only woman I’ve ever loved?
This
is book two in the Restrained Fantasies series but can be read as a standalone.
Publisher’s
Note: This
romance is intended for adults only. It contains elements of danger, suspense,
mystery, BDSM, sensual scenes, romance and adult language. If any of these

EXCERPT ONE:
Carter
needed a sub, and he needed one now.
In
four hours, he was supposed to start a class at Restrained Fantasies, the
Dallas BDSM club that was his second home, but forty-five minutes earlier, the
sub he’d enlisted to be his teaching subject had called in sick. How was he
supposed to give a class on reading subs without a fucking sub?
If
he had a little more time, he’d be able to find someone from Restrained
Fantasies’ clientele, but time was the one thing he didn’t have. And not having
everything planned out ahead of time scraped on his every nerve.
Carter
dropped onto the leather desk chair across from one of the club’s co-owners,
Brock Michaels. The other man made an interesting contrast to the sleek modern
feel of his office. Brock was menace and intimidation that had somehow been
fused together to create a living person. Shaved head, tattoos covering most of
his upper body, the man oozed bad-boy-biker out the wazoo. He was the kind of
man Carter, a detective outside the walls of the club, would pay close
attention to if he were skulking around in dark alleys at night.
“Oh,
I know who I could ask,” Carter said with a smile, the suggestion more to get a
rise out of his friend than being an actual suggestion. “You could always let
me use your pretty little sub. Viv looks spectacular in chains.”
Brock
glared up from the paperwork scattered across his desk, his expression a few
degrees shy of homicidal. “I don’t share Viv with anyone. Ever. And if you want
to keep your testicles from being kicked into your throat, you’d do good to
remember that.”
Carter
fought to keep his grin from spreading and failed miserably. “I know, I know.
Viv’s off limits. What about her friend Anne? Do you think she’d be game?”
“Most
likely.” The other man leaned back, crossing muscular arms across a chest about
as wide as the Grand Canyon. “Anne’s game for almost anything. If she says no,
you could always ask Terry. She might like the overtime.”
“Already
asked Terry, but she has plans she said she couldn’t get out of.”
Brock
opened his mouth to respond, but a knock sounded against his partially open
office door, and an angel followed the sound inside. Well, a dark angel anyway.
Raven Malek, with her blacker-than-black hair and purple highlights, tattoos
running the length of her arms and shoulders, nose and eyebrow piercings,
ripped jeans, and a T-shirt with a bleeding rose could never be classified as
an angel. But damn, she drew him in with the unstoppable fury of a supermassive
black hole.
Emphasis
on black.
Raven
was one of two bartenders at Restrained Fantasies and, for the past few months,
she’d also been an on-again, off-again player in Carter’s jerk-off fantasies.
He couldn’t pinpoint precisely when the young woman had snagged his attention,
but she had. All five-foot-six, lush and curvy inch of her.
What
would her sexy body look like tied open to him?

AUTHOR BIO:
Brandi Evans was raised by a caravan of
traveling Gypsies. She spent her days learning the ways of her people and her
nights lost in legends as old as time. Okay, not really, but that's way more
interesting than the truth!
In
reality, Brandi grew up the oldest child of an ordinary family. Grade school,
middle school, high school. Nothing extraordinary happened until she left the
nest. She joined the military, went to college, got married, and became a mom.
And somewhere along the way, she discovered she liked to read—and
write!—stories hot enough to melt eReaders.
