**For fans of *Fifty Shades of Grey* and *Bared to You* comes an emotionally charged romance between a powerful man who’s never heard “no” and a fiery woman who says “yes” on her own terms. ** ** ** *He was the one man I couldn’t avoid. And the one man I couldn’t resist. * ** ** Damien Stark could have his way with any woman. He was sexy, confident, and commanding: Anything he wanted, he got. And what he wanted was me. Our attraction was unmistakable, almost beyond control, but as much as I ached to be his, I feared the pressures of his demands. Submitting to Damien meant I had to bare the darkest truth about my past—and risk breaking us apart. But Damien was haunted, too. And as our passion came to obsess us both, his secrets threatened to destroy him—and us—forever. NOTE: This edition includes excerpts from J. Kenner's *Claim Me *and* Say My Name.* ***Release Me *is intended for mature audiences.**

For Damien, our obsession is a game. For me, it is fiercely, blindingly, real. Damien Stark’s need is palpable—his need for pleasure, his need for control, his need for me. Beautiful and brilliant yet tortured at his core, he is in every way my match. I have agreed to be his alone, and now I want him to be fully mine. I want us to possess each other beyond the sweetest edge of our ecstasy, into the deepest desires of our souls. To let the fire that burns between us consume us both. But there are dark places within Damien that not even our wildest passion can touch. I yearn to know his secrets, yearn for him to surrender to me as I have surrendered to him. But our troubled pasts will either bind us close . . . or shatter us completely. Release Me is an erotic romance intended for mature audiences.
