Young interior designer Ava O’Shea has no idea what awaits her at the Manor. A run-of-the-mill consultation with a stodgy country gent seems likely, but what Ava finds instead is Jesse Ward — a devastatingly handsome, utterly confident, pleasure-seeking playboy who knows no boundaries. Ava doesn’t want to be attracted to this man, and yet she can’t control the overwhelming desire that he stirs in … in her. She knows that her heart will never survive him and her instinct is telling her to run, but Jesse is not willing to let her go. He wants her and is determined to have her.

Jesse is the ultimate domineering alpha male. The story flows easily and the secondary characters are wonderful as well. I love Ava, she’s vulnerable, but still stronger than she knows. I can’t wait to delve into the second book in the series. I am excited to see how their relationship unfolds.
Jesse Ward is a one man wrecking crew, the perfect storm and he’s about to wreck and overwhelm Ava O’Shea. He is, by turns, controlling, aggressive, jealous, neurotic, protective and possessive.. His mood swings keep Ava on edge but he’s stepped in and come to her rescue on several occasions. Ava befuddles and bewilders Jesse unlike any other …

My #1 favorite book! I could not put it down. Jesse is mysterious at first and little intense but he grows on you and by the middle of the book, you love him. Sure he has his moments that you want to say WTF but you can’t live with out him. Ava is a sweetheart and the bit in the delivery van with her in the back, I don’t think I ever laughed …
This book is intense and full of alpha male Jesse Ward. I couldn’t put this book down. I love Jodi Ellen Malpas work. She keeps you intrigued and on your toes. There are some truly jaw dropping moments in this book, and some dialogue that was so funny I found my heart pounding in some of the book. If you are not into Hot controlling Alpha males …
What an amazing book. This is and was one of my favorite stories and characters. I definitely look forward to reading the next book in this series. I definitely recommend this book, this author and this series.
Although it is over 500 pages it grabed me and I found it difficult to put down to go to bed at night. I love all the characters but again back story pushed me to read as much & as fast as I could. I have read this trilogy 27 times.
A must read!
Fantastic book!! I think this my favorite book of all time. I am so in love with Jessie Ward!! Why can’t I be Ava?? This book is the first of the series but I couldn’t put it down until I finished reading.
You must read the full series of this one; hot, like “50 Shades”
Wow, I loved this one too. Can’t wait to start Beneath this Man. I had to reread this one to get ready for book three and I am still in love with this story. Jesse is very intense but so lovable. Loving the ride with Jesse and Ava. Jodi Ellen Malpas is one of my favorite authors.
This book was so good. It’s a cliffhanger, which I hate, but I actually bought the other books in the series. They will stay in my cloud because I know I’ll be reading it again.
Not an easy read and hard to follow.
Awesome series
Oh my! This book is way beyond 5 stars.. Ava and Jesse are everything all at once.. My emotions took a roller coaster ride and I loved every bit of it!! JEM you know how to write a scene and my imagination takes over!!
I love this series it is a must read
3.5 ️’s, reluctantly. It was good but didn’t blow my mind like I was hoping that it would. I’d seen this book recommended so often that I just had to read it. I love jealous and possessive guys in the books I read, but Jesse is at a whole new level here. I mean, if he could somehow use this girl’s bladder to pee for her, he totally would because …
I loved reading this book and this series. Jesse Ward “Lord Of The Manor” is looking to renovate his club. When he meets a young designer Ava O’Shea she has no idea what the manor is really used for she thinks she is going to meet some fat stuffy balding middle aged man instead she meets the hot sexy Jesse Ward. When Jesse first meets her he knows …
The best series out. I have read it 3 times
