Blurb:
Late at night, on an amateur ghost hunt, Sabrina and her best friend Q are caught trespassing by the gorgeous, blonde Jude. The embers of attraction between them sizzle when they discover Jude’s kinks match their own.

Jude is a Dom on his last summer of freedom before starting the prison sentence that is med school. Q is a bad-ass bi switch who knows what she wants, and for years it’s been her cute, doe-eyed straight friend Sabrina. But the only way into Sabrina’s heart and panties may be with Jude’s fist wrapped in her hair.

Domming the bratty Q and mischievous Sabrina isn't going to be easy but Jude relishes the challenge. At the end of the summer, will they find a way to stay together when everything is tearing them apart?

*Warning: this book contains adult material including the use of multiple implements to bring bratty subs to their knees, scaffolding doubling as bondage apparatus, and a haunted house. No ghosts were harmed in the making of this book.*

My Review:
The Dom With A Safeword is the first book by these three authors I've read. I was really intrigued by the blurb and wanted to see how this menage worked. Sabrina and Q are great together. Even though Sabrina is sure she's straight. I loved their attitudes toward each other and Jude. The characters are very well written and have a lot of depth, dimension and emotion.

Jude is like sex in jeans. He exudes confidence but isn't real cocky about it, just matter of fact. He's taking the summer to fix up an old house before he heads off to medical school. I don't think Jude is really looking forward to school in the fall, he seems to really enjoy doing construction.

Sabrina and Q are fun loving and very mischievous. I giggled and laughed at some of the things they came up with. Who snaps their Dom's ass with a wet towel? That was so funny. Q is a little darker of a character, needing more patience and tough love. Jude rose to the challenge of taking on these two bi girls, he knows it's not going to be easy.

I really enjoyed reading about Jude, Q and Sabrina and their summer relationship and how their characters grew emotionally and overcame a lot of obstacles that could keep them apart. This book contained a lot of sexual tension and some very intense sex scenes that kept me turning the pages. If you like books with some seriousness, plus some wit and have terrific characters, then I highly recommend The Dom with a Safeword.

Blurb:
Who needs Christmas when it brings bad memories? Jude is hung up on his past but his bisexual brats Q and Sabrina are going to drag their normally good-natured Dom into the festive season even if they have to put him on the naughty list. But being in a ménage a trois isn't simple.

Family drama, unexpected consequences, and the sexy shenanigans all avalanche in with the snow to make Jude, Sabrina and Q find out exactly how deep their love goes.

**This is a standalone Christmas novella that is a sequel to the Happily Ever After story of The Dom with a Safeword.**

***Warning: this novella contains uses for cookie frosting Betty Crocker wouldn't approve of, naughty girls that get spankings instead of coal, and a scrooge Dom that has nefarious plans involving tinsel and a Christmas tree branch.

BDSM elements, M/f/f and F/f scenes.

My Review:
It's their first Christmas together and Q wants to start some family traditions. Sabrina is her happy accomplice when they go hunting for a tree. OHMYGOSH!!! I had to laugh at their antics, it was priceless. Sabrina and Q's characters just flow well with each other. They have depth and dimension and could be my next door neighbors. I felt as though I was at the tree farm with them, watching the two struggle with that tree.

I really liked Jude in book one, The Dom with a Safeword. However, I had a difficult time reading him in this book. Jude lost his father during the Christmas season and hasn't really gotten over it. So he has a hard time when his girls bring home a tree and drag out all of the decorations, making one huge mess. The situation was quite comical until Jude turned into Scrooge.

Q even tries her hand at baking, being domestic really isn't her strong point. I got a lump in my throat reading about how Q never really had a regular childhood growing up. Her brothers raised her and did they best they could. Reading about how Q was trying to do things for her family without really knowing how only reinforces the meaning of family to me. This book had me laughing one minute, crying the next and then wanting to throw it out the window.
Jude seemed to favor Q in this story more than Sabrina. Maybe that wasn't the intention of the authors when they wrote the scenes, but it stuck out on more than one occasion to me.

The Dom on the Naughty List is a story filled with emotions, hot sex, lots of surprises and a revelation or two. A very enjoyable read and highly recommended.
