Publisher's summary

When a stalker ratchets up his attempts to get to her, cable sex-talk-show host Morgan O'Malley turns to Jack Cole - a self-proclaimed dominant - for help. Though Jack is a bodyguard, Morgan feels anything but safe in his presence. Because slowly and seductively, Jack is bringing her deepest fantasies to the surface. And when he bends her to his will, what's more shocking than her surrender is how much she enjoys it and how she starts to crave his masterful touch. A willing player in Jack's games, Morgan knows that his motives aren't pure. But she has no idea how personal they are.

Very good and very hot

Shayla Black sure does not disappoint in the hotness in her books. I liked the mystery stalker aspect of this book and the male characters were likable. The main female character got on my nerves a little but not so bad as it overshadowed the enjoyment story.

Great Book! I was sad when it ended!

What made the experience of listening to Wicked Ties the most enjoyable?

There was never a dull moment. It was fast paced and never slowed. It kept me on my toes the entire time.

Any additional comments?

I loved it so much I wished that it was part of a series.

Love, Love,Love!!!!

The story is great, the chemistry between the 2 main charterers is explosive. The surroundings make the story even hotter. Her doubt of herself just adds the frosting on the cake.

OH SO HOT!!!

If you could sum up Wicked Ties in three words, what would they be?

THATS REALLY HARD... EROTIC, HOT, STEAMY

What was one of the most memorable moments of Wicked Ties?

I THINK IT WOULD HAVE TO BE... THE FRIST TIME HE MADE HER CALL HIM SIR... THAT MOMENT WHEN SHE KNOWS HE WILL CONTROL HER IN EVERY WAY. I JUST LOVE A GOOD DOMINANT MAN.

Which character – as performed by Lexi Maynard – was your favorite?

SHE DID JACK COLE VERY WELL, BUT SHE WAS GOOD FOR THIS BOOK I THINK SHE DOES A REALLY GOOD JOB.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

YA I HAD A EXTREME REACTION TO THIS BOOK :-)!!! NO REALLY IT HAD FUNNY PARTS TOO!!

Any additional comments?

THIS WAS A RELLY GOOD BOOK!!

Gods Sub

This was a real good submissive listen. It wasn't too hard or raw in my opinion.

Slow, Slow, Slow

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

This book is TOO LONG. The heroine whines, and this became tedious quickly. The hero's behavior is not in keeping with the author's projected persona. I have other books by Shayla Black, and this one was a disappointment to me.

Good book!

OK, I'm writing this review after listening to the second book. Second book is better to me. This book was good. A change. Got the second book after reading the review. I would suggest getting the series. Just love these Alpha males. The narrator is great making the book come alive. Hat's off to the narrator.

Left me breathless

Would you listen to Wicked Ties again? Why?

Absolutely, and I have. Without spoiling anything for the next person, it's got it all, hot, hot, hot D/s (and more), it's romantic, and has suspense too. What's not to love!

Who was your favorite character and why?

Jack, the cajun accent was darling. Deke would be my next favorite. Didn't know it was a series and just bought the next book. SO EXCITED!

Which scene was your favorite?

Mmmmmmm, not really willing to say.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Given the nature of the book, it was a bit emotional for me in a been there, done that, sort of way. Yeah, I cried, maybe not balled, but shed a tear. The hubs definately benefited from my listening to this book - he sends his thanks, by the way.

Any additional comments?

I like a hot book just as well as the next person. D/s stories hold a special place in my heart. But, what I really like is that there was an actually story in the book. A deccent plot; it wasn't spank, spank, bump bunnies every 5th page.
