They call me Valentine but if you’re looking for hearts, flowers, and happily ever after, you’ve met the wrong man. I want my women on their knees, surrendering to their darkest desires. I’m a sadist, and I don’t make excuses for what I need. I don’t care what the romance books say, a virgin has no place in my world. When I meet Grace, I know I should walk away but because of me her life is in … because of me her life is in danger and she needs my protection. I’m her boss and the only man that can keep her safe. The only question is, who is going to save her from me?
The first time I’m attracted to a man and he’s not only my boss but some kinky pervert. The idea of me being his sex slave is insane, so why can’t I stop thinking about submitting to this fantasy?
I’m not looking for love. I just graduated college and the last thing I need distracting me from my life goal is some sadistic billionaire with control issues. Valentine is a former black op soldier who left a military career and turned his security company into the largest in the United States. Working as his intern is a dream job I can’t turn down. The trouble is, I see how he looks at me, and I’m worried if he asks, I won’t be able to turn him down either.
Valentine is a 70k word standalone with no cheating and is a BDSM Virgin/Alpha male romance. This book contains no bonus material and is for mature readers who like their reading steamy.

OMG!!! Michelle Hughes never disappoint me. I started reading her Vampire series, then she introduced me to “Church”& oh my now “Valentine” I’m a stalker.
Absolutely LOVED this book. I cant even begin to say all the things I love about it, there are so many things!!! Michelle has the ability to build up a detailed and believable world and then shatter it completely and I love her writing creativity. If you are looking for a book that will stay with DAYS & DAYS after you finish it, you need to pick this up right now. I couldn’t sleep through the night after finishing up this book but the books that get your blood pumping and make you think of everything you thought you knew are the best types. This book is completely on par with everything you think you know you want in a romance novel but at the end, you will think again.
This book was absolutely one of the BEST books I’ve ever read. I normally do not read this genre. I actually got this book by mistake. What a wonderful mistake. I absolutely loved this book. This is Gracie’s story and OMG what a story this girl has to tell. Gracie is a college student who’s fixing to get her first job. When her best friend finally talks her into going to a BDSM club. Gracie is innocent to all things she thinks she’s asexual. That is until she sees Valentine on stage. When there eyes meet her feelings scare the crap out of her and she runs. The very next day at her knew job who just happens to be her knew boss? None other than Valentine. What’s a girl to do why faint of course. When her job puts her life in danger Valentine will do everything in his power to keep her safe even if that means tying her to his bed he has no problem with that at all. Things are never as they appear as I learned in this journey. When the truth finally comes out can Grace lose her mind and her lover? That’s all I’m gonna tell you. You have to read this book.
OMG what can I say about this book. It was exciting frustrating sexy hot temptation action emotional and so much more. Grace and Valentine were so hot together. I really hope that we get to read more of these characters maybe make this into a duology because I want to see where it goes. That ending had me stunned I didn’t expect that at all. It was so shocking that I was crying a little.
An intensely wicked and arousing bdsm read. I thought the characters were well written and believable. I was surprised with how the novel ends and as for myself, I didn’t really like it. But, that is only my opinion and I’m sure that other readers will be fine with it. It doesn’t take away from Ms. Hughes’ exceptional words and I will be reading more of her books in the future.
Oh My Good Gravy!! If you love a good alpha, you will love this book! Valentine has romance, adventure, and Lots of steamy hot, erotic sex. This book will keep you turning the page until you have read the whole thing in 1 sitting. Then it will have you going “Do What??!!”
What a twist! I thought this book was great but the twist at the end makes it amazing! Wow. Writing is done beautifully and the narrow just as good. I need more!
I absolutely refuse to accept this as the end to their story. I don’t want to give anything away but just when I thought I was comfortable in the story things got flipped on it’s head. I’ve refreshed my goodreads page a dozen times hoping it will magically change and this will become a series. Michelle if you read this please take pity on me and give me more!
I would recommend this to people who like bdsm/ steamy romance but feel like you’ve read it all. This was a fresh twist and I am so here for it!
Valentine
A Billionaire Romance
By: Michelle Hughes
Narrated by: Melissa Stiletto
My second Michelle Hughes book, and this was nothing like the first! Valentine is a billionaire sadist. Grace is young, fresh out of college and his new employee. There is a spark of recognition between them after first seeing each other before, but is it enough to ignite? I was expecting a regular contemporary romance, but this took me completely by surprise. It’s very well written, a plot that is full of steam, passion and suspense. The characters are smart and the plot takes a turn I didn’t see coming. Some BDSM, a terrorist attack and a love that borders on real, we get to take this journey and see if the rich, dangerous man can get the stubborn, beautiful girl to submit. Hughes has a winner with this book.
Melissa Stiletto gives another great performance. She has good, concise voicing for her characters and she is able to emote every feeling precisely. I love her narration and it kept me hanging til the very end.

When I first started listening to this audible book, I thought ok its your typical Alpha Dom, see’s an unexpected innocent and teaches her his ways and it started playing out that way, with some suspense and intrigue thrown in. Then pow we reach a twist that throws you off guard and it’s like wow wasn’t expecting that one. All in all I have to say this is a different story from your typical BDSM read.
The narrator did a nice job, but my thought was a younger voice would have been better.

Valentine
A Billionaire Romance
By Michelle Hughes
Narrated by Melissa Stiletto
Great story, it grabbed me from the start and blew my mind by the end! It is well written with interesting storylines filled with drama, twists, suspense, action and hot romance. Great character developed and chemistry between the two leads, Valentine & Grace. Valentine a Dom and Grace is an innocent and self proclaimed asexual. Love the build up to their relationship and the direction Michelle Hughes went with their story. Well done, very well done! Loved the characters, the leads and the secondary characters, would love to hear more of Lina and Don. Thanks for this great story!
