Kady Dresco and Colton Brooks are both competing for the same military services contract. They have known each other for years and are compatible on many levels but Kady is the sister of Colton’s best friend and there is a six year age difference. There is also a side to Colton that Kady has never suspected. Colton almost submitted to the temptation of their attraction three years ago but fate intervened and saved him from making what he believed would have been a mistake. Now they are stuck together in a motel room during a storm and things are about to get very interesting.Colton is a Dom wanting a submissive but not just any submissive, he wants the younger sister of his best friend but he doesn’t believe she would be into the things he needs and long term relationships scare him. He is about to be seriously shocked when he inadvertently finds one of Kady’s favorite romance books.Kady is a submissive needing a Dom but has never acted on her desires or talked to anyone about it. She does read certain romance books and is mortified and then surprised when Colton confronts her on the topic of her reading material.This was a nice, short but enjoyable read that left this reader wanting more, this novella felt incomplete. This reader was disappointed to learn after reading that this is a prequel novella to a series with the next 4 books about different couples by different authors that is centered around the event of this couple’s wedding. This was their beginning and the books coming are about their ending but what about the in-between? I would very much have liked an epilogue showing us how they got there by this same author whose work I enjoy. I will not be reading the series but will keep an eye out in case Laura Kaye decides to give this couple a continuing novella, to tell us more of how they got to their HEA. The blurb should have stated the specifics of this novella and the series so readers could be well informed before deciding if they wanted to read.
