Asking for It (Asking for It, #1)

About this book

"This is who I am. This is what I want. Now I need a man dangerous enough to give it to me." Graduate student Vivienne Charles is afraid of her own desires--ashamed to admit that she fantasizes about being taken by force, by a man who will claim her completely and without mercy. When the magnetic, mysterious Jonah Marks learns her secret, he makes an offer that stuns her: they will remain near-strangers to each other, and meet in secret so that he can fulfill her fantasy. Their arrangement is twisted. The sex is incredible. And--despite their attempts to stay apart--soon their emotions are bound together as tightly as the rope around Vivienne's wrists. But the secrets in their pasts threaten to turn their affair even darker... Reader Advisory: Asking for Itdeals explicitly with fantasies of non-consensual sex. Readers sensitive to portrayals of non-consensual sex should be advised.
