This book tells the story of Gabe, a billionaire Dom with a serious attraction to his best-friend's little sister, Mia. Of course, Mia is about as off-limits as a woman could be. She's sweet, young, innocent and coddled by her over-protective big brother. Gabe's sure he's going to hell for just thinking of the sex acts he wants to do with Mia.

Going to hell or not, he decides that he will have Mia. After seeing her at a grand opening party one evening, scantily clad and looking irresistible, he can't resist her any longer. Instructing her to meet him at his office in the morning, he startles her with a passionate kiss and sends her on her way.

Mia wasn't sure what to expect when she arrived at Gabe's office, as instructed. She'd lusted after her brother's best friend for years, but never really thought she stood a chance. She wants him, but she's thrown off-kilter by the contract he presents her with, outlining the details of their sexual relationship if she were to consent to having one.

Predictably, Mia chooses to agree to the relationship with Gabe. As part of their agreement, she will also begin working as his personal assistant. Little by little, Gabe introduces her to his world of kink.

The story slowly progresses with a few smaller climactic moments along the way. Eventually, everything hits the fan when Mia's older brother discovers their relationship in the most dramatic fashion. Then, every bit of progress that this couple had made seemed to evaporate.

I was disappointed in Gabe's behavior more than once while reading this story. His character didn't hold much appeal for me. I liked Mia, but without liking both of the main characters, this long story just got kind of tedious.

Overall, I liked it. It isn't a favorite of mine, but it was a decent story to pass some time. I've definitely read far worse. That being said, I've also read much better.

Yeah, he definitely had his moments as a world-class asshole. I didn't get that either. The explanations for the bad behaviors were weak also. :/
