Give In

There was a tingle up my spine…

There are certain authors that I read without even a quick squiz at the blurb. Layla Frost is one of those authors. I opened the first chapter and a shiver went up my spine. The words hit my eyes and a smile broke free. There is nothing better than returning to a favourite author and knowing by the end of the first page that I was about to experience magic. I was being led on a journey of discovery, taken out of my comfort zone and pushed to see past my narrow existence. I absolutely LOVED Give In.

So, after the first giddy high, I started to pay a wee bit more attention and found myself bracing. See, it’s been a while since I could sink into a kinky book and not just escape out of my head and question every move and decision the characters make. In Give In, I wasn’t given too much time to become judge and jury. I was sucked wholly into the lives of Professor Caine and his angel, Eden Wilder.

Give In is a love story. We’re not expected to accept the kinky scenes as something to spice up the relationship. Damien Caine is a forceful, dominant and commanding man who knows that he wants to be Eden’s whole world. Caine doesn’t act on his lust or attraction initially, he watches and waits patiently for the right time. And, that right time happens the first time he sees her on stage. He wants to control and keep her just for himself. Capturing his Angel will change both of their lives.

HOLY SHAMOLY…THIS BOOK IS HOT!! Honestly, Give In is one of the SEXIEST books I’ve read in a while, and the funniest part is, it’s a slow burn. I can hear you all say…what…how can the sexiest book be a slow burn? Well, my friends, anticipation is the name…and anticipation surely was the game. You couldn’t even call it play-time because he’s like this ALL THE TIME! When Professor Caine stepped into the room and made demands, I was enthralled. Eden's initial hesitations made the storyline believable. I became convinced that Eden enjoyed receiving her punishments as much as Professor Caine enjoyed dolling them out. Wow, I’m getting hot again just typing this review.

This is not your typical New Adult College Romance. This is not kinky for the sake of kinky. There’s a wee bit of drama and intrigue but nothing I couldn’t handle. The kinky play has a little red-room-of-pain feel to it, but it was obvious that both Caine and Eden enjoyed it. There’s mutual respect, a deep connection and trust between the two of them. Some would say that Professor Caine was a bit stalkerish, I’d call it protecting and keeping an eye on his future.

Anyways, I friggin LOVED Give In. If you’re looking for a sexy, exciting and fantastic story that will grab your attention from the start, look no further. Straight to my best-of-the-bestest shelf. Layla Frost…I want MORE!!
