title: Protege
author: Michaels, Lydia
description: The author of the provocative Surrender Trilogy presents a new novel of one woman’s introduction to a world of sinfully sweet submission...
  
   For too long, French teacher Collette Banks has locked her deepest desires away in the darkest corners of her mind. But now, she’s taking matters into her own hands by applying to a secret and exclusive society devoted to matching people with their ideal partner—or partners...
  
   Founder Jude Duval has set up strict rules for admitting people into his world. But when he interviews Collette, he finds himself breaking protocol. Her innocence disarms him. Her willingness to explore her own sensuality delights him. And her spirit challenges him—enough to take her on as his own protégé .
  
   What starts out as Collette’s erotic awakening will draw them both in deeper than either of them could have ever imagined...
