Three HOT, suspenseful books in one! The complete, bestselling Under His Command series is together for the first time.
Warning: Dominant alpha hero Blake Roberts will own your nights and forever ruin you for lesser men
CONTROLLING HER PLEASURE
Blake Roberts has everything he’s ever wanted—fame, money, and ownership of the hottest chain of tattoo parlors in the country. But he’s haunted by his … the country. But he’s haunted by his first love, his former foster sister, Erin. The matching tattoo they share is a constant reminder of who he was before he learned how to control his emotions, his desire, and a woman’s pleasure.
He needs to purge her from his heart, and he’ll do whatever it takes to be free.
Erin Perry’s been burned by love and she’s not ready to put her body under a man’s control, let alone her heart. But then Blake shows up, the only man she ever truly loved. Blake is ruthlessly handsome, and seething commanding energy that has her aching to submit.
To be pleasured, tamed, owned, and put under His control.
COMMANDING HER TRUST
Blake Roberts is falling hard for his old flame and won’t stop until Erin is his. He doesn’t simply want her body; he wants her submission, her abandon, and the wounded heart she’s trying so hard to hide.
He wants all of her and he’s pulling out all the stops—in the bedroom and out—until she surrenders.
For Erin, what started as a charade has become all too real. She’s never experienced anything like the savage bliss she’s discovered in Blake’s arms. He tests her, dominates her, and if she doesn’t gain her freedom, soon he’ll own her—body and soul.
She has to escape even if running from Blake feels like running from the only home she’s ever known.
CLAIMING HER HEART
Blake has what he thought he wanted—Erin’s submission, her trust, and the woman he loves back in his bed. But with her submission comes protection of her secrets. Erin is in trouble and an innocent life hangs in the balance. Blake knows he can help her break free of the past, but he doesn’t know if a man like himself belongs in her future.
How can he swear to protect her from danger when he has a dark side of his own.

Blake and Erin are pure fire! The chemistry between them is palpable. There is plenty of banter and tension, as well as romance. This is second chance romance with a bit of friends-to-lovers and enemies-to-lovers. There is even action and intrigue. Did I mention how hot this is? So hot!
CONTROLLING HER PLEASURE
This is the prequel novella in the Under His Command Series and also Lili Valente’s first piece of work. I am excited to discover a new author and can’t wait for more to come.
Blake wants to move forward and to do that he needs to go back. He has to see the one girl that broke his heart eight long years ago. He has changed in appearance and the way he control things in his life and now he has to control Erin unless she goes willingly…
When Erin first hears a very commanding voice at closing time at the bar she is working in she is instantly excited. It’s been so long since she has had a man please her the way she needs it. Then it changes when she sees his face, she is surprised to see the one man she never thought she would see again.
She didn’t know what Blake was there for but she would go anywhere with him. When he told her what he was there for, she refused to give what he wanted but she was willing to do anything else. Blake’s dominating voice hit her in places she craved and once Blake figured it out, he knew what he had to do and was happy to do it.
This makes for one very sexy car ride to the middle of nowhere. Blake knows in his mind what he needs to do but will his heart listen? Is he still willing to do what it takes for him to move on? Will Erin give in or fight him every step of the way?
This novella was sexy, mysterious and was just a taste of what’s to come…
Quotes:
But then, he’d earned the right to teach Erin a thing or two about payback.
She needed it rough, hot, and primal, and it was past time for her to scratch that itch.
The man was a dirty-talking master.
COMMANDING HER TRUST
Commanding her Trust starts off right where Controlling her Pleasure ended…in the middle of nowhere. Blake needs to get to his cabin so they can relax and talk more about what needs to be done. He doesn’t want to feel for Erin but when you have a connection to someone even after 8 years it’s hard to let those feelings go. Erin is dead set on not going through with Blake’s plan, the tattoo means too much to her future and she wants to hold onto it for her past…
Blake tries to keep his distance from Erin so the sex doesn’t get out of control but Erin has other plans. She wants him, she craves his dominance and it’s part of her plan. The next 24 hours is a whirlwind of hotness and emotions. Trust is a deal breaker to both of them. There is a secret lingering and its a biggie. Can Blake get Erin to trust him? Can he trust her? Will the emotions be too much for them?
This novella is full of punch. You have the secrets, suspense, sexiness and emotions. I can’t wait to see what the next 24 hours is going to be like in that cabin. I have a feeling it’s not going to be easy.
Quotes:
“I’ll tell you one more time,” he rumbled. “Stop. Or there will be consequences for disobeying me.”
If we’re going to give each other pleasure, I need you to trust and respect me. To want to obey me because that’s what’s going to get you off the hardest.”
A smile that promised everything naughty and nice, and everything Blake hadn’t dared to hope for.
CLAIMING HER HEART
This picks up right where Commanding Her Trust left off…Blake angry and hurt at the same time. He was now not under the illusion that Erin cared about him like she pretended to be. He was going to do what he planned and never look back. Well…that was his plan anyway and plans don’t always work out. Was she really pretending to still love him?!
Blake wants her trust and Erin wants his just the same. Secrets that she was keeping hidden need to surface if that is going to happen. She was ready to lay it all out on the line and see how Blake responds to what her past has really been like for the last few years.
Blake doesn’t think he is good enough for Erin and her future but he wants to help her present. Does Erin feel the same way towards Blake? Is she good enough for him and his needs? Will Blake leave after she everything is complete and they can move forward?
I think Blake and Erin’s “relationship” is very special. He would always protect her but at the same time he feels he is hurting her. He will always love her and she will always love him but is that enough?
I loved this whole novella series. It was sexy, unique and had its twists.
If there is more to the series…I have an idea about who I want to read about next!
Quotes:
No matter what she’d said in the diner or on the road up to the cabin, Erin hadn’t been faking her physical responses to his touch.
So she was pissed as well as turned on. Good. That made two of them.
He was the only man who had ever been able to turn her on and calm her down at the same time.
Wow good book. To imagine a love like that could survive that long, wow. Erin is lucky to have Blake love her that much.
