The Marquess of Alastair is trying to be a gentleman for a change, but this Regency miss won’t take ‘no’ for an answer!
Mildred Abbott is a proper Regency miss, but she cannot deny the dark desires that torment her body in the quiet of night. Engaged to an uninspiring sycophant, she asks the influential nephew of her patroness in debauchery to interfere and break her engagement. When her … interfere and break her engagement. When her appeals to him fail, she decides to take a singular opportunity—a visit to the Château Debauchery—to indulge her most wanton cravings before she submits herself to a life of wedded dullness.
The Marquess of Alastair concerns himself with no one, but to appease his aunt on her birthday, he agrees to select one person whose interests he will look after. It was not his intention to choose the plain and simple Miss Abbott, but when she unexpectedly shows up at the Château Debauchery, his hand is forced. Knowing his aunt to be partial to the miss, he grudgingly decides to act the part of a gentleman and preserve Miss Abbott’s honor by removing her from the Château.
But Mildred refuses to go until she has had her night of wicked debauchery.

I need more!!!
The book screamed sex. I loved it.
This is a Novella and as such it does not have a HEA. Mildred aka Millie goes to Château Follet aka Château Debauchery because she is into being spanked. Millie is taken there by Lady Katherine who is her friend and Lady Katherine just so happens to be the aunt of The Marquess of Alastair Millie’s cousin by marriage. Naturally Millie meets the Marquess there. After some consideration the Marquess uses a crop and then a paddle on Millie and then he fucks her. Nice story, next part is Submitting for Christmas.
I love period pieces that have hot sex scenes and this one scratches that itch. Thanks
Very enjoyable
When I stared this book I was not aware it was part of a series and would end with a cliff hanger. So that was disappointing. The story over all was OK. Andre d’Aubigne, the Marquess of Alastair is stunned to find is recently betrothed cousin by marriage Millie Abbott at the Chateau Debauchery, a place where men and women act out their deepest desires. Millie is determined to have one night of every sensual pleasure she can have, because she knows once she marries dull George Haversham, she will never be fulfilled. Andre couldn’t believe she had some “experience”, that she wanted more, and that he was attracted to her as well. Overall good read, but I prefer things to have an ending and not a question mark.
Millie was such a lovely character, full of surprises and desires. Thanks to her Aunt Katherine, one of those desires – a night of debauchery was about to become reality or it was until her Cousin (by marriage) discovered her at Chateau Follet. Alastair did his best to deter her but was not successful and what follows was so hot. The dialogue between Millie and Alastair was nothing short of magical and combined with the hot scenes makes for a delightful read.
Starring Miss Mildred “Millie” Abbott and Andre “Alastair” d’Aubigne, Marquess of Alastair.
Tropes: Spanking, bdsm, Debauchery Establishment, cousins by marriage, and Cliffhanger.
I usually don’t like it when when a book ends in a cliffhanger or no resolutions between the main characters… but this story has whet my appetite and I immediately bought the next TWO installments (Submitting for Christmas and Submitting for Christmas: The Epilogue) as soon as I finished this one.
Alastair is a very strong alpha hero who is appalled to find his cousin-by-marriage at Chateau Follet… an upscale place where aristocrats can fulfill their bdsm and other hardcore fantasies. What starts out as his need to protect her, soon has him giving into temptation to dominate Millie…. and he’s deliciously surprised when she can take more than he thinks she can handle.
Millie is getting married to a man she does not love and he doesn’t know about her naughty proclivity towards getting spanked and dominated. Her aunt gifts her with one last hurrah at Chateau Follet…. where she runs into Alastair. At first it’s a funny cat and mouse game between these two… until Millie finally convinces Alastair that she’s going through with her plan to get debauched with or without him. So he proceeds to give her the best night of her life…. and I mean WOZA!! I’m usually about the heroes, but Millie is pretty hawt!! And I love that she is confident and knows exactly what she wants… and is not afraid to push her own boundaries. She’s awesome!!
Alastair and Millie are going to singe the pages with their hotness so be prepared… sit in front of a fan or next to a running cold shower. You have been warned!!
Em Brown is a wonderful author and I gobble up her stories when I’m in the mood for a guaranteed amazing kink!! Love her books.
My Star rating: 4 stars
Book was great. Loved the characters. Storyline kept me entertained… but did not make me cry. *and it felt unresolved since I didn’t know this was a cliffhanger.
Did not like the conclusion. It left the couple hanging. Other wise a great story.
Look forward to reading next one
I like Ms. Brown’s heroines frequently being plump, ordinary-looking women who are disdained by society but who manage to win the hearts of their men.
Great read
Due to the promise to his aunt, the Marquess sets off on an unknown path. The passion and romance that springs between these characters is steamy.
It was an extremely hit read, I loved it!
woo wee. LOL
Too graphic for me.
too steamy
good
It was fun to read another book in the series. Thinking about kinky sexual desires back in the Victorian times is fun…all those repressed desires and the different treatment of men’s desires versus women’s desires. This was a fun exploration of kinky desires.
It was great fun to read!
