This is a well written series with adult content. It features the La Petite Mort Club, a BDSM club, and all the activities that take place there. This series and the others that feature the club are some of the best books in this genre that I have read.
The Voyeur Series is a 4-book set, by an author whose work I’ve read and enjoyed very much in the past. Patrick (our H) and his friend, Ethan, had sworn to their Marine brother, Vic, that they would always watch over Vic’s little sister, Annie (our h) if he couldn’t be there. Vic’s last mission as a Marine left him a damaged man, so when he left family and friends behind during an episode of depression, Ethan and Patrick stepped up. Annie, however, has completely different ideas. She is NOT the innocent virginal child the guys like to think she is, and she refuses to be treated that way. She’s a twenty-something woman, full-grown. She wants to explore some of her sexual desires, and she knows just who she’d like to have join her in those activities: one of her brother’s best friends and the guy she has loved from afar, Patrick.
Patrick is equally drawn to Annie. That makes his duty a conundrum to carry out, particularly since Ethan has been called out of town and can’t be there to nip things in the bud. Along the way, Patrick falls in love with Annie. He may not realize it or admit it, but he has. So, he’s torn in two different directions: how to make her his without making her his. It’s so cute. He does everything he can to pleasure Annie short of “having sex.” Every act of foreplay under the stars is dabbled in, while Patrick tries to convince himself these acts don’t step over Vic’s line in the sand. Meanwhile, Annie makes sure she does everything she can to tempt Patrick into a full relationship with her. Familiar with the term “blue balls?” I found Patrick so endearing. But, just like Annie, I was also very frustrated their relationship couldn’t move forward more quickly. With this being a 4-book set, their antics amounted to a very prolonged session of edging. I must say, though, the author is highly adept at creating some very melting, scorching, habanero-hot scenes for Annie and Patrick. They definitely got their HEA, but I would like to hear more about how the future turns out for them.
Ellis O Day has done it again. Here Patrick is thrown together with Annie and is smitten, but when he realises she is the sister of one of his best friends, he is placed in an uncomfortable quandary. The sexual attraction is mutual but he wants to respect her and he’s also a little worried she’ll break his heart. A strongly sexual and steamy romance; my only problem with it being that the exquisite agony of the dénouement isn’t played out over a longer story. Yes, it’s that much fun!
Instant attraction, warring emotions of passion and guilt, hot ‘non-sex’ sex and then it all combusts.
This was a really great read. I really enjoyed it and will probably read the next set of books in the series.
They were brothers who continued to watch over each other. Vic and Ethan had gone on a mission together that had gone badly. Vic hadn’t come back the same and a few years later, eventually disappeared. Vic may be gone, but Ethan and Patrick were honor bound to watch over his family. So when Annie, Vic’s little sister, wanted a job at La Petite Mort Club Ethan put her to work in housekeeping.
Enter Patrick when he catches her watching a scene through one of the mirrored windows and decides to play. The story will take you through the two weeks of Ethan having to leave town for a wedding and what happens between Patrick and Annie. What a great series with Safe, Sane and Consensual always being at the forefront.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
I feel like I can relate to Annie because sometimes people won’t do things with me or for me because of who is in my life and they are worried about what will happen if shorty family members find out.
Loved reading Patrick and Annie’s story. The attraction between them is so undeniable and only made more fun to read about given how Patrick tries to resist the attraction once he finds out who Annie is. The scene in Ethan’s office when Patrick is trying to play cool and Nick knows something has happened is, as they say, “priceless”. I love stories like this that aren’t just about the kink, we get a true story happening between the characters, great humor, and a look at what is happening at the club. I can’t wait to read the rest of the series.
Very sexy!
The voyeur gets to play too in the club
I have become an Ellis book fan with reading all 3 books in La Petite Mort Club series. Annie who is working towards her Culinary Arts degree works as a maid at the club, because the owner who was in combat with her brother won’t let her have another position. Yet Annie has a voyeur side that Patrick, a combat friend of the owner discovers and narrates her body to the scene in front of them. When Patrick finds out that the woman he was just playing with was his combat mate’s little sister, he ends any future plans with Annie. But Annie and Patrick are thrown together, and fate is too tempting to keep them apart or is it? You have to read to find out and will enjoy every page!
Four book complete series with HEA. Patrick is put in charge of watching over the La Petite Morte club while his friend is away. Annie is a maid at the club who enjoys watching the scenes at work. Patrick is part of a friend group that joined the military together. Annie’s older brother is part of that friend group but her brother hasn’t been the same sense returning home. Patrick and Annie have HOT chemistry! Patrick has doubts and insecurities that send mixed messages to Annie. I enjoyed this book series it has super steamy scenes and a little angst. I would love to read more from the secondary characters in their friend group!
Fast paced and scorching hot. Patrick can’t keep his hands off the fiery Annie, even though she’s supposed to be off-limits. It does that this pair a while to admit their feelings, but the chemistry is there in spades. The four short story/novella length reads in this set are a continuing story that makes for an entertaining, sexy tale of forbidden romance. It’s fan yourself steamy with just the right amount of angst to keep the story moving.
