Their Famous Dominant

“Trent Ramsey was everything I’d ever wanted and everything I should’ve been running from.”

Intrigued is an understatement regarding how I felt when I read the synopsis for Their Famous Dominant, the latest installment in the Office Ingtrigue series. I confess, I read it as a standalone, due to time constraints. I even have a pretty paperback on my shelf of the first in the series, but sadly it’s still on my TBR.

I was thrilled to learn that Trent was the focus of this story. I had met him while reading the Club Destiny series. He’s the one responsible for the BDSM addition to the club Devotion. Not only is he an extremely successful movie star, he’s a famous dominant as well. He’s highly respected in both areas and as the owner of two BDSM clubs, his kink is no secret. With the paparazzi constantly following him, he has very few secrets. But as I’m sure you guessed, he doesn’t give a shit, he has nothing to hide. He’s not ashamed of his kink and he doesn’t care what anyone thinks. He’s a Dom with a capital D, and there’s a long line willing to be his s in a D/s relationship. He’s used to giving orders and being obeyed by everyone, including his personal assistant.

The female object of his obsession has been on his radar for years. He’d always known that he wanted her, but he just hadn’t done anything about it so far. But when the time is right, there’s no stopping the train once it’s in motion. She didn’t stand a chance of being able to resist him, right?

I really liked her, she knew who she was. “Yes, I was a submissive. The need to serve was great within me, yet at the same time I’d never found a place where I truly belonged. I longed to find a Master who could calm me with his dominance, not ony sexually but in my everyday life. Someone I could serve and cherish and dedicate myself to. Someone who would offer me the love, respect and guidance I so desperately needed. However, I wasn’t letting just any man run roughshod over me. There was a difference between being a submissive and being a dormat. A doormat I was not.” What fun I had waiting for those two to connect, knowing that he was just the dom she needed but hadn’t experienced yet…sigh.

And then, I fell for him too. He was the oh so very efficient personal assistant for one of the most sought-after movie stars in the movie industry. What he wasn’t aware of is that he was also one of the most sought-after Doms in the BDSM world as well. Trent did a very good job of keeping his business world separate from his private life. For three years his assistant was not exposed to his kink, Trent referring to him as vanilla. And then, BOOM! Life, as he knew it, changed when his boss decided to introduce him to the dark side… and he liked it.

With so much going on, it’s no wonder that this story was much longer than most of her others. The author had a lot of foundation to lay and a lot of instruction was needed for the poor vanilla assistant. He’s very likable and amusing. One of my favorites is, “I was going through my limit list one more time. Considering I didn’t know half of what this shit was, I’ve been utilizing my good friend Google. It’s safe to say that if the FBI is monitoring my searches, someone’s probably going to descend on the building soon.”

The many colorful support characters kept me very entertained and intrigued to spend more time with them going forward. I’m anxious to go back and catch up with the earlier installments and I’ll definitely be stalking the author for the next story after getting a glimpse in the epilogue of who it will focus on. The line forms here…

This author is one of my favourites, so much so, I buy her books without checking the blurb or knowing what the book will be about.
As with all her books, the characters, the story, and the heat were great.
I love how the author has all her different series interwoven together in some way, which means we get appearances of those characters in the each others’ books.

Trent Ramsey,actor,self made millionaire and Dominant of two of his own BDSM clubs is about to embark on the most crucial point in his life.
For years Trent has felt a connection to the beautiful submissive Clarissa but he’s not acted on it until now. Troy is Trent’s personal assistant,organizing and keeping on track his hectic life.

If you love stories with BDSM,ménage,(mmf) and strong characters,then this is the book for you. The writing is superb and the story gives you all the good feels!

Readers who are familiar with Nicole Edwards’ Club Destiny series have already been introduced to Trent Ramsey – a man who is legendary in the BDSM world as well as one of the highest paid actors in Hollywood. Trent Ramsey dominates his submissives as well as the Box Office and he does so for all the world to see because he’s comfortable with who he is and what gets him off and if society wants to talk about or condemn him for his kinky ways, he can’t stop them nor will their judgment stop him from what he wants or how he gets it.

While Trent seems to have everything he wants in life, money, fame, power, and a more than healthy sexual appetite, there’s still something missing, and in order to fill this void, he finds himself wanting to dominate and connect with two people and the most interesting part is one of them doesn’t seem to have a submissive bone in HIS body, is ready to teach both Clarissa and Troy who they truly are and how satisfying this threesome could be.

The length of Their Famous Dominant speaks to the amount of instruction that needs to take place in order for Trent Ramsey to educate his submissives, allowing them to absorb his guidance when it comes to the BDSM world that Trent dominates, but even after that foundation is laid, the emotional connections need to occur as well and that takes time for everyone to get comfortable and allow themselves to give into their sexual desires in both overwhelming and fulfilling ways.

Trent, Troy, and Clarissa’s journey does not follow a linear path; in fact, it starts and stalls, pushes and pulls, and moves in all different directions as all of them learn to traverse this new lifestyle and their connection becomes about so much more than sex.

Their Famous Dominate is exactly the type of ménage story that I’ve grown to love, partly because that kind of relationship is unique and their characteristics are anything but cookie cutter, but also because Nicole Edwards’ emotional storytelling and her multifaceted characters never fail to turn me on and make me truly understand that love is love, regardless of number or gender.

4.5 Poison Apples

Seems like I have been waiting for this book since I met Trent Ramsey way back in Devotion. Every time his name has come up in one of our Author’s books it has only wet my appetite for what was to come when Trent’s book would finally hit release day. I always just knew in my heart of readers heart that Master Ramsey would be the one for Classia but oh my stars, our Author always finds a way to get to heart of each of her characters and make them so real, so honest…so true. I did not see that she was going to where she was with Troy and I am so happy it went there.
Life can lead you in unexpected places you just need to open yourself up and follow. Even if it unconventional…who cares. If you are happy that is all that matters. Look at Master Trent, Troy and Rissa…it took time and lots of communication and love and yes well you really need to read this book to find out how they get from Actor and Assistant to …. well you know. Can not wait for The Ruthless Sadist, Zeke’s story is next. Hang on we are going for a whip of a story I can already tell.

Their Famous Dominant by Nicole Edwards is book four in her Office Intrigue Series. This book can easily be read as a standalone. Yes, there are a few cross-overs, but you can follow the storyline without problems.
The previous books are The Office Intrigue; Intrigued Out Of The Office; Their Rebellious Submissive and now Their Famous Dominant.

Trent Ramsey, yes The Trent Ramsey from Club Destiny Series gets his own book here.
Trent, the world famous actor and owner of a adult club, feels like he´s missing on life. He´s 35 years old and on top of the world. But he longs for something.

Troy Shelton is his trusted PA. He´s 300 years old and loves working for Trent. He craves something more than his current life, but can´t express what.

And then there´s Clarissa Tinsley. She´s a 32 yeár old lawyer, self employed, submissive but not a dorrmat, with a crush on Trent for a long time.

These three people could be so great together as triad and more – only all of them have issues and baggae that threatens to destroy their HEA.

While Troy is the easy going and my absolute favorite character, Trent and Clarissa are very difficult to get a grip on.
I started reading and was captivated from page one. I read the book in one sitting, I had to know what happens to the story and the characters. Definitely a pageturner!

I´m torn about Trent and Clarissa, their behavior was so unpredictable at times and at some point I was real angry at them. They had me in knots. I rooted strongly for their relationship, but on the other side, I knew it couldn´t work that way.

All in all, Nicole Edwards wrote a wonderful book with great characters I easily connected with. The writing is brilliant and I was hooked from the beginning. I recommend Their Famous Dominant and can´t wait to read the next book – Zeke´s story.

I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review.

My name is Trent Ramsey. It’s possible you’ve heard of me. I’m on of the highest paid actors in Hollywood. Not only that, but I’ve built a vast empire of businesses, including tow of the hottest BDSM clubs on the map. My face has been plastered on big screens and magazines for over a decade. Plus, I’ve got more money than I know what to do with. At one point in my life, I thought that was enough to make me happy. So why am I not? Why have I found myself at a crossroad? It’s not like I don’t know what I want. I know exactly what I want. Or rather who. But it sin’t what you think. I’m not after a submissive who will fill the void No, it’s never that easy for me. I’m after two and they aren’t both submissive. In face, one happens to be my personal assistant, a man who has spent the past three years working alongside me, helping to manage my entire world. Although my mind has been set on one particular woman for so long, I can’t deny I have an overwhelming urge to dominate him too. Better yet, both of them together. At the same time.

If you have read any of the book in the Office Intrigue Series from Nicole Edwards, you have met Trent when the other characters go to the club. He is the owner and I am so excited that we get to read his story. Trent has it all, except for love really in his life. He has the fame and the fortune and has worked hard for all of it. He is also a Dom without a sub. But he isn’t so set on finding a submissive. He know exactly who he wants and that is Clarissa a woman that he has known for years and not been able to get out of his head. There is also Troy, his assistant that has worked by his side for the last three years. But he doesn’t want them separately he wants to dominate them together. I loved all the characters in this book and I loved that it was a menage story. These three fit together so perfectly it wouldn’t have been right for them not to have all found each other. This is a book that you do not want to miss. Nicole Edwards wrote the first menage book that I ever read and I am always so excited to get my hands on another one she has written.

Their Famous Dominant is the fourth book in the Office Intrigue series by one of my favorite authors, Nicole Edwards. I have read almost all of her books and she always delivers the fantastic storylines, the incredible writing and the sexiness. It can be read as a standalone, but you will definitely have more fun if you have read the other books and The Club Destiny series. We have known Trent Ramsey for a long time. I wasn’t sure he would ever get his own book! But, man am I glad he did. It was worth the wait! Trent is rich, famous and the most sought after movie star in the business. His life is very public, but he’s not in the habit of hiding who he is. He’s a Dom. His lifestyle requires the control and he needs it to survive. He’s looking for a submissive to share his life with. Actually, he’s in the market for two of them. His sexy, personal assistant, Troy. And Clarissa, a woman he’s known for years and hasn’t been able to forget. He wants them both. He needs them both. But Troy is a man, the first man he’s ever has feelings for. Clarissa is independent, stubborn, but submissive to her core. He has his work cut out for him with these two. They are sexy, sweet, fun, but can the three of them make it work? It’s not going to be wildly accepted, does that matter? Can Trent show Troy and Clarissa that he can’t live without them before it’s too late? I loved this story! Threesomes are a hard situation, but add in the Dom/sub relationship and it’s even harder. Trent is sexy and knows what he wants, but he’s also vulnerable and it’s hard for him to trust people. Everyone seems to want a piece of him. Clarissa is so stubborn! Not gonna lie, I wanted to smack her a few times. She’s insecure and has a hard time trusting that Trent actually wants her. Now, Troy. Troy is my favorite. There was just something about him that called to me from the very beginning! I don’t know if it was his soulful eyes or his hilarious inner monologue. He’s new to the scene and had no idea what was going on! He’s sexy, sweet, dedicated and just so much fun! Overall, I laughed, cried, was seriously hot and bothered and I loved it. Trent’s story was everything I wanted it to be and more. I also loved all the new characters we met(ZEKE) and I loved seeing some old friends (XANDER!) I can’t wait for Their Ruthless Sadist!

Still, I had the overwhelming urge to please him. And I knew for a fact Trent Ramsey didn’t have a single submissive bone in his entire body, so I took that to mean I was definitely the submissive in this little test.

4.25-4.5 STARS

Actor Trent Ramsey takes on the starring role in this 4th installment to Nicole Edwards’ Office Intrigue series. First introduced in this author’s Club Destiny series, I’ve been waiting for Trent’s story for quite some time. Finally, his story landed on my Kindle, and I couldn’t have been more excited. Thankfully, Trent’s long-awaited story didn’t disappoint!

After years of lusting after the beautiful submissive Clarissa, Trent seizes an opportunity to finally make her his own. But Trent has been secretly harboring feelings for his personal assistant, Troy, as well. Although men have never been a part of Trent’s sexual repertoire, there’s just something about Troy that Trent finds enticing–that compels him to want to dominate the man who has been managing his world for the last 3 years. Hence, it’s not surprising when Trent sets out to make his lascivious desires a reality. But to do so, means convincing both Clarissa and Troy to be his subs. While Trent has never taken on a sub before—let alone two—he’s confident that this arrangement would be sexually gratifying for them all, should they agree. He just needs to draw out Troy’s submissive side and break down Clarissa’s defensive shield in order for it to work.

Regardless of her intense feelings towards Trent, Clarissa is initially reluctant to put her heart on the line. But a bi-sexual Troy is quickly on board—despite his naïveté when it comes to Dom/sub relationships. Eventually, Clarissa comes around, and their combined sexual chemistry is scorching hot! Whether it’s all three or a combination of two, their steamy exploits in and out of the bedroom is simply off the charts!!

Told in alternating POV’s, I enjoyed getting a glimpse inside each of these character’s heads. I loved that Trent took what he wanted and didn’t care what the outside world thought, refusing to allow others to dictate his actions. Clarissa, on the other hand, I found frustrating with regards to her ability to constantly erect walls and to remain detached. Getting inside her head really helped to diffuse that frustration somewhat, as I was better able to understand her choices a little bit more. And as for Troy… well, he quickly became my favorite in this sinful little trio. Although he was new to this type of submissive relationship, Troy was both eager and open to exploring all possibilities and quickly became the emotional glue binding them all together.

Steam factor aside, it’s the suspense element injected into this story that really held a special appeal for me, setting this Dom/sub story apart from similar stories of its kind. While I might have craved a tad more suspense, especially mid-way through when the story started to wane, overall, “Their Famous Dominant” was right on the mark. I connected with the characters emotionally, and the story’s conclusion hit all the right chords.

Although Club Destiny and Office Intrigue fans will, no doubt, enjoy cameo appearances by series’ favorites, “Their Famous Dominant” can absolutely be read as a stand-alone. In fact, it just might be my favorite of the Office Intrigue books, thus far.

I won’t lie, I havent’ read the last couple of books in the Office Intrigue series, though I have read the first. Nothing against the book, just a case of so many books, so little time.

I was happy to see that this book was about Trent Ramsey – if you have read the Club Destiny series, you have met him already, though if you haven’t Their Famous Dominant can be read as a stand alone.

Nicole Edwards books are always long, but there is so much going on in Their Famous Dominant that it is no surprise that this book is bigger again – it is like the length of 2.5-3 regular ebooks these days. But we needed it to be longer too.

Trent is a famous movie star, and a well known dominant. Clarissa is the woman who has been on his radar for a long time now. Troy is his personal assistant – who Trent wants to make things a lot more personal with, if you know what I mean!

I liked that this wasn’t just a regular D/s situation, that not all involved are experienced in the scene. There are so many things that our lovelies all need to work out amongst themselves before they could start their unconventional relationship.

And yes, their relationship is really unconventional, however it didn’t feel it. It didn’t feel awkward, it didn’t feel weird. It felt like love all around.

It was great to see some names from past books and series pop up.

Trent, Clarissa and Troy are all extremely likable – Troy particularly for me. There was no OTT drama (sure, there were issues but nothing too extreme) and the story flowed naturally. Nothing felt rushed or forced.

I am now going to have to find the time to go back and read the couple of books I have missed, and need a reread of the Club Destiny series. Is is wrong to ask for 36 hour days so I can fit them in?

I can’t wait to see what Ms Edwards brings us next.
