From the first chapter, this book is captivating. Charlie is in trouble. Running with the wrong people. He has put his family business and sister, Lexi, in danger. After being threatened by Luther Knight, Lexi takes matters into her own hands to did what she needs to keep her family safe.

But will she earn enough to save her family? And will she keep feelings out of the club? And what about her attraction to the dangerous Luther? J.M. Walker is new to me and I was blown away with this action packed, dangerous, steamy story. Every scene is dynamic, with amazing characters and an unpredictable outcome. Luther is quit the man. Attractive, dangerous, alpha male, he is protective and has Lexi’s best interest it’s heart. I love Lexi’s ability to adapt and find her way through a huge mess. Plus the twists and turns kept me on edge! It’s just the kind of listen I was looking for.
Veronica Harder and Mark Harrietha our our narrators and I enjoyed both of them. They are both new to me and I love finding new voices. Harder as Lexi brings out her adventurous side, and we can feel her conflict between her family and attraction to Luther. I loved Harrietha as Luther! He gives him the gritty, raw, alpha tone and he makes it easy to picture him. Good story with good narration.

Unexpected Surrender
By: J.M. Walker
Narrated by: Veronica Harder, Mark Harrietha
J.M. Walker continues to wow me with this exceptional novel and an unexpected mind-blow of a story, one that grabbed my attention right from the start and captivated it for the entire book. The characters are realistic, easy to relate to and connect with, they are easy to fall for and care about too. Lexi Adams is trying to keep her family deli business a float, it is just her and her brother Charlie, he was helping her with the bills, but she quickly learns he has not paid the bills in months. She also learns he has gotten himself in deep with some shady people. Making matters worse, he owes them money and no other than the notorious Luther Knight comes looking for it and threatens Charlie. Lexi goes into protective mode and tells Luther to not harm her brother, that she will do anything to get him the money he owes him, Luther tells her he has a way she can repay him and leaves her with a contact to call. A desperate Lexi calls the number he gave her and instructed where to go, a place called ”The Club” where she will be trained and prepped for a master. Lexi is juggling several roles, working in the deli and trying to help keep her brother alive, the visits from Luther are not helping matters, they only confuse her more, she is not sure why or how but part of her wants him but the rational part hates him for wanting to kill her brother. This is such an amazing dark romantic suspense, the story is cleverly plotted with plenty of drama, angst, action, mind-blowing twists and turns, thrilling suspense, heartfelt emotions and some hot romance with a side of kink. J.M. Walker, thank you for another fantastic story and emotional rollercoaster ride.
And for the terrific narration, Veronica Harder and Mark Harrietha are the perfect cast to bring these characters and their story to life. They had a complete understanding of the characters they portrayed, gave each a voice that suited their character’s persona to a tee, sounding believable in every role they played and just as I pictured the characters to sound. They set the perfect tone for the story, captured all the characters’ emotions and projected them into their performance. These two are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for this fantastic listen.
Thank you Spectrum Audiobooks!
If you love hot and steamy this is definitely the book for you. Lexi doesn’t know what’s happening but she goes with the flow. Does she realize who she is with when she goes to the club? She’s blind folded, but he’s determined to make her his. Hot and Steamy.
What an exceptional book by an exceptional author!! Luther is definitely one of my favorite characters of the year!! He’s hot and sexy and knows how to bring Lexi to her knees!!
This is definitely the book of the year for me!!
Good lord have mercy on my soul!!
If you’re thing is to read a novel that’s all kinds of hot and steamy, sophisticated, intricate, deliciously erotic with an abundance of class then this it is guys, this is it.
I had zero clue what I was getting myself into when picking up Unexpected Surrender. I knew of the subject matter, and I got a small glimpse of what I was heading into by reading the prologue, but it didn’t take me long to realize that I was an absolute goner. Talk about demanding my attention. I couldn’t put it down. It had me hooked and it honestly didn’t let go until I flipped the final page.
I absorbed this novel like a sponge, soaking up every word, every page, and every scene to the point that I read myself a headache LOL, but it was so worth it.
I don’t want to give anything away, but please know that Luther and Lexi’s story is one of magnificence. Highly emotional, super twisted, wicked in all the right places and simply perfect. You will fall hard for these guys just like I did, so be prepared to have a huge chunk of your time taken up with them because you won’t put it down.
Unexpected Surrender for me was an absolute joy and pleasure to read. As a reader I can remember a time when the reading market was soaked with all things erotic, and it became a little flat and repetitive, to the point that I simply stopped reading them. But Unexpected Surrender is on a whole different level. I loved the respect that JM Walker showed when it came to subject matter and the explicit detail. I loved how right it felt reading it. It wasn’t in the least bit tacky or tasteless. It was beautifully written with class and was quite modest. I just loved it.
Bravo to JM Walker for an extremely unique, remarkable and phenomenal read that screams all things risqué, delicious, bold, suspense, edge of your seat and dirty with an abundant amount of trust, hope and love.
JM Walker you are a menace! You write all these books and bam we all fall in love with them are you some kind of witch? I would love to know what secrets you have hiding? You must have some kind of magic finger or some magical creature feeding you words! I always end up falling in love with your stories even though sometimes I end up getting my heart broken more than once. Please keep up your amazing work!
This was a really… UNEXPECTED novel and I did find myself enjoying the emotions that the story invoked. It has everything a reader would want: amazingly deep and thoughtful characters, an interesting and emotional plot, thought provoking choices, and enough steam to melt a few kindles.
I have read this author before (her MC romances are among some of my favorites) and it was a joy to realize that her talent transcends tropes. I enjoyed the journey this story took me and the characters on, it was twisted and gritty but also funny and joyful.
I think this story would be a hit with most readers who are looking for strong characters, a little light BDSM, some humor and a lot of heat.
Holy mother fudging fudgesticks!!! This book has done more than twist my melon!! Luther Knight…….just hold that name on your tongue for a few minutes! *bends at the knees to draw in much needed air!
This book gave me whiplash, so much is going on, double crossing, back stabbing and in amongst all that is the relationship between Luther and Lexi. It’s hotter than the sun!! Honestly I was on the edge of my seat the when way through! Flipping brilliant!!
I received a copy of the publisher/author to review for Stephanie’s Book Reports.
I am Luther Knight. Powerful. Businessman. I own everything around me Until her. Lexi Adams challenges me in ways I never knew I needed.

When she becomes desperate, The Club is all that she has, and I watch as she falls for her Master. She’s confused, conflicted, and unable to decide who she wants more. Me or Him. But the difference between her and I? I know what I want. Her. And I won’t stop until I have her at my side. Forever
This book is so good and I really loved reading it. I’m a huge J.M Walker reader and this one doesn’t let you down if you know and love her work. This is the story of Lexi and Luther. They have quiet the story to tell and I can tell you that is a little dark and twisted, but they really have their moments of discovery in more ways than one. Lexi needs to save her brother. He has gotten himself in quiet the mess and owes some very dangerous people. The only way that Lexi is ever going to be able to get him out of the mess he is in is to give herself to the man in question. They have one smoking hot story to tell and I can tell you that you do not want to miss this book no matter what you do. Go, grab it and get to reading.
Lexi needs to save her brother. He owes a powerful, dangerous man, and Lexi’s only way of paying the debt is by giving him herself. Can she do it? Should she do it…
The simple answer is yes. But, there isn’t really simple in Luther and Lexi’s story, because there are all kinds of things happening, even aside from just the burgeoning feelings they’re developing. But let’s talk about those feelings, because they’re the heart and soul of Unexpected Surrender. First off, you must know that this is a seriously, seriously sexy story. It has shades of BDSM in it, after all, the club where they meet is that kind of club. And Luther wants, no, demands, Lexi’s submission. The question is, will she, can she, submit? But not just her body, but her heart and soul, too. Because Luther is an all or nothing kind of guy. He may be a bit flummoxed by the actual emotions he has for Lexi, but the rest he knows just what to do with. And damn does he do what he wishes!!
Even aside from the emotional aspect, though, everything else about Unexpected Surrender is also top notch reading. The plot is complex, fast paced, and all the characters are riveting. This is really J.M. Walker at her absolute best!!
I was so excited to see this story released that I jumped in and did the one click KU. I have loved all of her stories. This one is as all the rest…so powerful and mind blowing. It follows Lexi and Luther and they’re roller coaster ride of emotions. There are twist and turns around every corner. I loved that they went through struggle and pain. Yes that may be weird but I gravitate to these story lines.
Holy snickers Batman!!!!! This book was not what I expected. Going into this book, I thought it was going to be straight forward but I wasn’t prepared for the curveball thrown in this book. Unexpected Surrender is definitely one if those books that you have to leave your expectations at the door. I’m ready for more from J.M. Walker.
This is book is one smoking hot, sexy, passionate, smoldering read. Dominance at its finest. Twists and turns and all that. If you think you know what’s happening, your in for a real shocker.
JM Walker is as usual a genius and never fails to deliver a gut punch and then soothes the burn with more passion than imaginable.
Sexy. Thrilling. Dominant. Plot twist. Edge of your seat read. Just a few ways I would describe Unexpected Surrender. It was another roller coaster ride from J. M. Walker and I was ready for the ride! I was trying to stay a step in front of her writing, guessing what she had for us, and then she filps everything upside down.
