I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review.
Garrick has been in the friend-zone since Jade put him there in high-school. But that’s about to change. He’s done waiting, and he’s had his fill of women that aren’t her. Jade had no idea going to a party would be so world-changing. That is until she sees Garrick and discovers he is one of the club owners. Surprises don’t stop there. He’s done standing on the sidelines. It’s time to change zones. But moving form friends to lovers is hard enough without the complications of his dominating ways and her need to submit. Getting this wrong could ruin everything. Getting it right could mean the world.
This is the story of Jade and Garrick. They have been friends for a very long time but they are beginning to realize they want to be more than just friends. If it fails though they could lose each other and that is very upsetting to both of them. However you just might miss what life has in store for you if you let fear rule you life. Garrick is part owner of a kink club and when Jade decides she needs some kink in her life she just might be opening the door that they have been waiting on to open. This book is short and steamy and I loved every single second of it.
Until Daddy
Carissa’s learned her lesson. No matter how panty melting the chemistry, relationships don’t last. And it won’t be any different with Jamison Croft-even if just looking at him sends tingles to all the right places. But he’s not an easy man to shake. Jamison doesn’t give up easily when it comes to getting what he wants. And he wants Carissa. Not only is she intelligent, gorgeous, and generous-she feeds every desire the Daddy Dom in him craves. She may have given them an expiration date, but he’s not backing down. And when the outside world threatens to cash down around them, he’ll show her he won’t abandon her. She believed she’d never have anyone in her corner. But that was Until Daddy.
Carissa is not a fan of relationships and she has never had any luck in any one of them she has ever tired to have. Jamison is a Daddy Dom and he has the massive attraction to Carissa. Nothing is going to stop him from having her. However they come to an agreement to let Jamison dominate her for a month. She is so afraid of getting attached to him and him taking off on her. Jamison is determined to convince her in this months time that with him is where she belongs. Can he get this done in such a short amount of time. You have to read to find out. This book is smoking hot and amazing and I loved every single second of it.
Club Dark Lace is a collection of three romances, one of which is an exclusive short story. This is a club where dreams can come true, fantasies become realities, and loving but harsh discipline falls upon the naughty submissive.
Unzoned is the first book in the Dark Lace series. Jade and Garrick have been best friends for years, but now is the time that Garrick is going to put everything on the table. But will Jade give them a chance to be more and follow her own heart, or will her fears drive them apart? This book is fast paced, entirely captivating, and one I really enjoyed reading! The characters are realistic with an engaging storyline, and I loved their passion, connection, and even their drama. I felt like I could completely relate to Jade because I feel like I would have a lot of the same reactions that she has to the changing dynamics of their relationship. I loved that she wanted to chase with her heart, but I also loved she had a healthy sense of fear. Garrick, at times, seemed like the typical Dom, confident and dominant with a caring side, and I really enjoyed his vulnerable moments. I liked that he was able to comfort Jade when needed, but was also able to push her. There’s a small bit of drama in this book that helps add to the storyline, but I really think the aspect that shines the most is the connection between Garrick and Jade!
Until Daddy is the second book in the Dark Lace series. Carissa and Jamison meet during a Christmas party and scene, and while Jamison thinks that everything went well and he felt a connection, Carissa runs scared. When he finally convinces her to give them a chance, it’s with an end date in mind. At the end of the month, will Carissa realize they’re perfect for each other, or will all of her fears about relationships come true? I really enjoyed this book and loved the dynamic between Carissa and Jamison! I loved how well they worked together in a relationship, loved the power exchange, loved the tiny bit of age play they participated in, and even loved their drama. I always find it fascinating when it’s the lead female character that’s scared of commitment. Carissa has a poor past with her parents and ex’s to give her much hope for the future with a man. But that doesn’t stop her from craving more, as well as having a generous heart and she’s one that’s passionate about the things and people she cares about. Jamison, at first, seemed pretty simple. Daddy Dom, caring and stern, successful in his businesses… but the more time we spent with him, I loved that he had layers of past hurts that you just couldn’t tell at first. His relationship with his father and mother, how he does business, added a deepness to his character that I really loved. Their connection was true and passionate, I loved that they helped each other and build each other up, and they both made mistakes.
Punishing Her is a Club Dark Lace short story that’s an extra bonus to this collection. Thomas and Susan have been married for years, but could her unsafe and rule breaking actions one night ruin their relationship? This story may be short, but there’s a lot of emotions and heat! While Susan may have had a good reason to want to let loose, she made some serious poor decisions. I loved Thomas’ protective nature toward his wife and the love that he shows her, even through a punishment. This story is almost more of a teaser, but while it’s the end of the collection, I hope it’s not the end of a series!
Unzoned is the first of The Dark Lace Series
I enjoyed this short, sweet and very HOT story of two friends that suddenly find themselves in a surprising situation. Jade has kept Garrick firmly in the friendzone thinking he didn’t feel the same way she secretly did. Until they bump into each other in a BDSM club. All bets are off when Garrick takes over and shows Jade how he really feels, but Jade is scared and doesn’t react exactly like she wanted to and trouble brews after Garrick makes her climax with a full audience. Jade runs and it takes most of the rest of the book to fix what was never really broken. The sex was hot, if a bit uneasy for Jade who has been living a lie since highschool as Garrick’s platonic best friend. Loved this book!
The stories in Black Lace series are connected, and you can enjoy the books as standalones. Best friends, who are Doms meet best friends who enjoy submitting.
The first book in the duet is Unzoned. It is novella length and is a friends-to-lovers story. Would you risk a great friendship to pursue your bestie, and risk ruining your relationship? That’s the question Jade wants answered. I love the way Garrick has finally had enough and takes charge, breaking down all the walls Jade tries to put between them-the D/s dynamic seemed to fit naturally in their relationship. Short but steamy and emotional.
Carissa helped her friend Jade find happiness with Garrick in Unzoned. Until Daddy is Carissa and Jamison’s age play story. Carissa doesn’t believe kink relationships can last. She is being pursued by Daddy Dom Jamison, who is hopeful in his belief that his good girl will want something long term. I liked Carissa as a secondary character in Unzoned. She was pretty independent and had a bit more experience as a submissive than Jade. Carissa was complex-worked hard as a nurse, volunteered at a refuge, committed, compassionate, and annoyingly bratty. I liked Jamison, who had a lot of integrity. I struggled with their dynamic; sometimes it seemed such hard work for a new couple, but they get there in the end.
I received a copy of this book. My honest review is voluntarily provided.
Fantastic reads!
Both of these books are absolutely amazing! Measha Stone delivers in every way with this series. From the plot, to the characters, to the delivery of the story. Everything flows beautifully.
The two main stories fit together so well, each standalone but also with overlapping characters. I also really enjoyed the exclusive bonus scene – it was beautiful and really added something extra IMO.
**Unzoned was previously released as Until You, both Unzoned and Until Daddy have been reworked**
Unzoned – This book slots nicely alongside Until Daddy , featuring the same mix of characters but this book focuses on Jade and Garrick. It’s a fairly quick read, it took me around an hour. It lacks a little in emotional depth and story development for my tastes BUT that is to be expected in a read this short. It certainly didn’t spoil my enjoyment of what is a great little read.
In many ways this is quite light on the BDSM aspect, though it isn’t lacking in the heat level. I liked both Garrick and Jade and, whilst she maybe made foolish choices, I could understand her worries and panic. Garrick has been an anchor in her life for so long and the thought of losing him would be worrying.
This, along with Until Daddy , make an wonderful ‘duet’ to read and I do recommend them.
Until Daddy – A woman so used to losing out in love and the man who needs to convince her to stay
There has been a new epilogue added and a gentle polish up of the story. I can’t pinpoint anything specifically that has changed, since its over a year since I read the original version. What I do know is that I felt much more of a connection to both Carissa and Jamison this time around. I also was much more convinced about their feelings for one another, boy was I emotionally invested this time around.
Carissa doesn’t believe in successful relationships, Jamison is determined to prove her wrong and asks for a month. The story felt like it took place over a longer time period than the one given, though it was still believable and ‘workable’. There’s is a Daddy Dom relationship, with Carissa cared for and looked after but not as a ‘little’ in the more common understanding of the word. She doesn’t colour, play with toys or go on play dates. All their interactions are as adults, just with Jamison clearly in charge and Carissa happy to call him Daddy.
This is an excellent book to pop your ‘age play cherry’ with, as it doesn’t contain scenes that would take you too far out of your comfort zone. Even the sexual scenes are more along the D/s lines with very little BDSM elements other than spanking. However the author still manages to make this feel both very steamy and kinky.
The side stories didn’t feel so overwhelming this time, perhaps that’s due to the reworking of the story or maybe it just goes to show that current mood is a big factor in how much one enjoys a book. Maybe it was more mindset than matter, who knows? I don’t, but I do know this is a great read and I definitely recommend it!
UNTIL DADDY
Will they, or won’t they?
Although this story follows a well known path: rich guy meets poor girl at his BDSM club, both with the same kink, both with the same hang-ups, but with different takes on relationships, Ms Stone padded this one with some goodies.
The characters are well developed and believable. We have one Daddy Dom looking for his forever-girl and one girl who is convinced forever is not for her. Add some good friends in both of their lives and parents you would love to strangle. The following struggles and misunderstandings are inevitable.
You know where the story will end but the way there is enjoyably paved with a Daddy who is strict but not over the top and a girl who just cannot keep her mouth in check or trust that her decisions might be understandable to him.
The developing dynamic between those two makes for a sizzling, enjoyable read.
The open questions at the end are an enticement to read more of this series.
UNZONED
When one is afraid to change the status quo, but the other is done procrastinating,
From friends to lovers with some slight speed bumps along the amazingly short road.
This is the entrèe to a new series.
Yay!
Unzoned
A short, sweet, funny and sexy novella by Measha Stone. Jade and Garrick have been friends for years. This novella sees them changing from friends to lovers and at the same time engaging into a D/s relationship.
Even though this is a short novella there is still a lot of story in there and the development of their relationship.
A wonderful quick read.
Until Daddy
This book takes place in the same world and timeframe as Unzoned, but you can read it as a stand alone. I believe it is the first Daddy book Measha Stone has ever written.
This is the story of Carissa and Jamison. They meet at a club and there is an instant connection between them, but Carissa is scared. But then she didn’t count on jamison. Once a daddy sets his eyes on a girls, he won’t let her go.
Both were great characters. Carissa was so passionate and determined about her work and helping people in need. She was a very warm, kind and loving person.
jamison was perfect for her, because he took take of her and supported her. I like that fact that Jamison came from money, but didn’t let that rule him or the people he loved. He stood for what he believed in.
I just loved all the scenes and chemistry they had together.. Even though I wanted to slap jamison on the head at a certain point. there was a lot of heat, but also funny and tender moments.
It is a great read and I would recommend it.
These two books follow seamlessly, in Unzoned the focus is on Jade and Garrick who have been friends for years. Jade, with the help of her friend Carissa is exploring her submissiveness and they go to a club owned in part by Garrick and his best friend Jamison. Garrick and Jade finally admit their feelings for each other and Carissa and Jamison get together for one night. Throughout Unzoned the reader is given a glimpse of the dynamic between Carissa and Jamison and in Until Daddy we learn why Carissa blanked Jamison after one night. These are not typical age play plots but they are charming and leave the reader with a feeling of hope for true love against all odds.
Until Daddy:
I loved this story and the wonderful characters in it. Carissa an ER Nurse goes to a BDSM club with her friend for a girls night out. While there, she meets Jamison. From that point on their relationship blossoms into something special although there are bumps in the road,they make it work. I absolutely love Measha’s book and so will you.
Unzoned:
A short, quick read about Garrick and Jade who have been friends since HS. They both love, desire and have feelings for each other but, never acted on it until now. Talk about hot. Loved it!
UNZONED
Oh I loved this one it was short but so sweet as Garrick and Jade bff forever and in the friend zone , will making a move ruin it all as they come head to head no longer wanting to wait and let the true feelings out and taking that leap into something more powerful. This couple have amazing chemistry but will Jade take the chance and let her feelings out.
UNTIL DADDY
What a beautiful passionate story that gives us all the emotion and feels you could want. Carissa is very strong headed and terrified of a long term relationship they just don’t work but something about her draws Jamison in and he cant let go. He is everything a Daddy should be and is a strict one but is he patient enough to deal with his baby girl and keep her in line and safe. They have such a connection and make a great couple and have to deal with a lot and jump over a lot of hurdles and I was cheering for them all the way.
