Publisher's summary

Audie Award Finalist, Erotica, 2014

For fans of Fifty Shades of Gray and Bared to You comes an erotic, emotionally charged romance between a powerful man who’s never heard "no" and a fiery woman who says "yes" on her own terms.

He was the one man I couldn’t avoid. And the one man I couldn’t resist.

Damien Stark could have his way with any woman. He was sexy, confident, and commanding: Anything he wanted, he got. And what he wanted was me.

Our attraction was unmistakable, almost beyond control, but as much as I ached to be his, I feared the pressures of his demands. Submitting to Damien meant I had to bare the darkest truth about my past - and risk breaking us apart.

But Damien was haunted, too. And as our passion came to obsess us both, his secrets threatened to destroy him - and us - forever.

Release Me is an erotic romance intended for mature audiences.

Basically Fifty Shades

Decent descriptions of intimate scenes but storyline is way to much like Fifty Shades of Grey.

best book i have listened to

What did you love best about Release Me?

I loved nikki and damien relationship and all their secret struggles.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Damien because of all he has been through he is still so strong and his protection of nikki. Plus the tenderness and patience he has for nikki. Her knight in shining armour.

What does Sofia Willingham bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

How well she can change her voice for each differnt character.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, couldn't put it away.

Any additional comments?

Let us known as soon as Complete Me is available. Amazon will have it July 30, 2013.

Good story ...alot of EROTIC ! Be preparred.

This book was good , maybe too much explicit sex that went on and on. But over all it kept me wondering and waiting. I think the whole Damien "secret" kept me going and I still didn't know by the end. On to book 2.....

3 stars but...

The story line was good but the narrator was so breathy OMG... SW needs some narration lesson NO LIE! I found it hard to listen to her but made it through. The story was good and if you can make it through too then enjoy and get the rest of the series. Worth a credit sure why not. LOL Happy Listening!

I'm hooked, bring on book 2! So steamy!

If you liked "50 Shades of Grey" then you will love this book, as I did. The narration is perfect and kept me so involved in the story. The romance, sexuality and raw emotion in this book made it a great listen. Can't wait for book number 2, glad I had already purchased it so I didn't have to wait! A must read for those hopeless romantics, and all the sex with the gritty details!

Good, But Naughty

I downloaded all three series, and I did enjoy them, but I did find that they are similar to 50 shades, except, I think they got carried away with the sex, I do think they could have been more discrete with some of the sex scenes, I mean, I have never heard such vile word's, I don't think I will listen to them again, although the plot was good, the book could be revised into something with not so many sex scenes in it..

LOVE LOVE LOVED IT!

What did you love best about Release Me?

Whenever you have a dominant hero with an unmistakable attraction to a heroine, it's bound to be a good story. Now mix powerful emotions and troubled pasts, with hot passion, and it's a recipe for greatness! I've never recommended for someone to use a credit, but this book has brought me to do so!

What other book might you compare Release Me to and why?

A little bit of FSOG, but the plot and dialogue is better.

What about Sofia Willingham’s performance did you like?

Her ability to transform between voices without compromise.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes! I stayed up all night listening to it.

Any additional comments?

I can't wait for the next installment.
