Obedient Series by Julia Kent
Obedient #1
Maliciously Obedient
Julia Kent
Getting caught reading Fifty Shades of Grey in the parking lot at work wasn't the best way for 25-year-old Lydia Charles to meet her boss. A boss she didn't know she had. Matt Jones now had the job she had been waiting to apply for (and win) for the past year, and to add insult to injury, he's the kind of guy her parents would adore. Damn it. The only kid of six to choose to run off to Boston and leave behind her idyllic family in Maine, Lydia's determined to prove herself in the big city, but she has to keep Matt at arm's length. After a steamy elevator encounter that leaves her missing her panties – and most of her resolve – she decides that maybe it's time to let him get inside her. In more ways than one. But when Matt suddenly closes off she's upset and confused. When he also acts like he owns the place, she decides that malicious obedience – following his every command to the letter – will prove how much the department needs her creativity after he insists he knows best. What Lydia doesn't know is that “Matt” is really Michael Bournham, the CEO of the company, part of an undercover reality television stunt. Keeping his hands off Lydia's luscious curves was becoming an exercise in restraint, but what was harder? Keeping his heart from her. For Michael, Lydia's malicious obedience ignited a night of unbridled passion in the office that made him forget everything – including the rolling cameras – until it was too late. When unscrupulous producers make their lovemaking viral, Michael pulls out all the stops and calls in every favor as Lydia. . . maliciously obeys.

Unable to resist, he becomes her confidante and bedmate, helping her to come to grips with her impulsive decisions and to find her way back home to Maine. A woman torn by desire. . . Lydia accepts the move to Iceland to become the Director of Communications for European Operations not realizing it's a sham position Michael Bournham created to help hide her from the firestorm of the viral sex tape. Living in a new country should be fun, but side glances and whispers from her new Icelandic employees dig at her. Ignored by her new boss at Bournham Industries, Lydia's disenchantment with her bold move is softened only by Jeremy's appearance. Wild and loose, he fills a void in her life – and soon fills her bed. When she decides there's no place like home, the new couple embarks for her family's campground – and Jeremy's suspicious obedience will be revealed.

Deliciously Obedient
Julia Kent
The final book in the Obedient trilogy
asks whether being authentic means losing everything in order to gain
yourself…
Ego bruised but spirits lifted by her
relationship with Jeremy, her ex-lover's best friend, Lydia Charles
comes home to her family's campground in coastal Maine with a new
boyfriend, some old anxieties, and one big question: where's Michael
Bournham?
Mike's spent the last month incognito,
living at the Charles family campground and sorting through his past
to make sense of his future. Dropping out of the media spotlight was
the best choice he could have made, and with Lydia safe in the job he
created for her, far away in Iceland, he has plenty of time to think
about how he hurt her…and how to win her back.
Jeremy followed Mike's instructions to
the letter: take care of Lydia. Falling hopelessly for her, though,
wasn't in this free-wheeling globe trotter's plan. Meeting her
parents and settling down triggers his own issues, and when a sudden
tragedy hits one of Lydia's beloved relatives, he finds himself
confronting his own past…and shaping the future.
It's all in Lydia's hands now as she
breaks every rule in an effort to learn whether the rules ever
mattered at all.
