Rating: 3 out of 5

Perfect Storm is the third installment of the HIS TO POSESS erotic serial featuring Jess, a young executive assistant and her wealthy dominating boss, Dane Ranier.In the previous episode, we learned that Jess and Dane have resumed their sexual relationship, and that Jess's ex, Storm, has been to visit Jess' parents and my soon drop into her new life in Philly.In this episode, the physicality increases in several ways. First, there is more sex. Three events in the episode. It is fairly well-described and notably more aggressive than the previous two episodes. Second, Dane becomes more demanding, pushing Jess's boundaries to include more sexy dress, and in-office encounters. In this, there are some risky situations that results in Jess's roommate Melanie walking in on them in medias res.Though embarrassed, Mel and Jess come to terms with this office dynamic. And Melanie divulges her attraction to Dane's brother, and business partner, Rafe.  Rafe has been absent to this point, though we learn a bit about his rocky relationship with Dane, via some (kinda) info dump dialogue.Third, the power dynamic between Dane and Jess is escalating to light Dom/sub.At the end we get a shift, when Storm arrives, and he's not the man Jess thought she knew. But, his presence threatens everything she wants, now.My thoughts:The sex is better, though not nuclear hot. I'm becoming frustrated by the lack of ANY talk about protection/BC. The first episode used condoms, but the last two...all bareback, and um, no. NO!!! Cover up, Buttercup. Or, at least mention hygiene and contraception. Otherwise, I feel like I'm watching a train wreck, not a hot scene.As this series progresses the story is being subsumed by the sex. Right now I feel like Jess does nothing all day but sit around hot & ready for Dane's deep penetrating...thoughts. And that's not nearly as sexy, to me, as a gal who has some other aspirations as well as the hot sex. Just sayin'.I am enjoying Jess and Dane much more, and the Storm twist was predictable, but in a good way. I look forward to the resolution of this love triangle.NetGalley made this available for reading, in exchange for an honest review.
