His bed. His rules. His intense ability to make her come...completely undone.

Law student Gina Banks knows that getting in bed--literally--with billionaire Austin Long is just plain trouble. Sure, she's done some dangerous things in the past to fight the good fight, but taking risks is far different from testing her limits.

Being with Austin would involve both.

Still, the chance to help the families in her hometown is something she just can't turn down. So, she agrees to his terms.

Total surrender. Hers. To him. A simple business deal where they both get what they want.

The absolute last thing Gina expects is for Austin to end up wanting her to surrender her heart to him, too.

Utterly ridiculous

This girl is supposed to be a highly intelligent lawyer in the making, but apparently if she gets turned on, she turns into a brainless person who can't function. Not to mention the fact that this guy is all but forcing himself on her, even though she doesn't want him and he knows it. While it's well written, the AI voice and the complete ridiculousness of an intelligent woman being reduced to a sex toy against her own will. Getting turned on does not make a woman give in to a guy she doesn't want in the first place. Not to mention the fact that he's been manipulating her and putting her in situations in a way that is just not okay.
As much as it is fictional, it's a stupid trope that is used far too often, and it's not only old but not sexy.
