A lot cheap levitra of people will say that they have a normal sex drive. Maxwell Barnes runs the top law firm in the city, owns a private BDSM club, and has more money than he can spend in a lifetime. He gets everything he wants, and now he wants his paralegal, Aaron Marshall. Mixing work and pleasure is a big no-no, but their mutual attraction is off the charts. The one thing Maxwell isn’t looking for is love, but sometimes fate has a mind of its own.

Maxwell had it all – wealth, power and status. He’d worked damn hard and shoved everything else to the side to achieve his goals and now that he’s finally happy with his success he’s ready to enjoy some of it and finally indulge in something a bit spicy and naughty. And Maxwell knows exactly who he wants to start this new phase with, but Aaron is his newest employee and that could cause complications. Can Maxwell and Aaron find their way together?

I found this to be an interesting and sexy short read. At first I was a little dubious as to how much I’d enjoy Maxwell’s character. Dominant, powerful and extremely wealthy Maxwell initially came across not just as an over-achiever, but also just a little cocky. Handled correctly I can enjoy a strong alpha male character as much as any other lady, but it took me a short while to really get into the strength of Maxwell’s personality. That said, I adored Aaron right from the get-go and found him delightful and really easy to relate to. Young, still a little naïve, determined to reach his goals and forge a path of his own making his character really appealed to me and I was hooked.

This is the fun and kinky sort of story where you need to disconnect your brain and just enjoy the ride. When Aaron and Maxwell initially come together in the club there’s quite a bit of discussion, history-sharing and verbal footwork before they agree to try a scene out together. I was a bit torn about this aspect to the story. On the one hand I enjoyed really getting to know both Maxwell and Aaron on a deeper level, it helped me connect well to them both and feel invested in their story and the relationship they each wanted to form. On the other hand it really slowed down the pace of the story and I found myself initially skimming to get ahead and start some of the action and forward motion to their relationship. I feel some readers will really appreciate the added depth this scene gives both men’s characters, but I wouldn’t be surprised if plenty of other readers skim this to get to the hot stuff.

The chemistry between the two men is delicious, the kink is hot and well written and for a fun and quick read this story certainly fits the bill to my mind. There’s a number of mis-communications and rocky road that the two men need to travel, but their need and lust for each other is clear and steamily written. This was a sexy and hot read that I feel should appeal to a number of readers.
