Book Review – His To Take by Shayla Black

Book: His To Take Series: Wicked Lovers, book 9 Author: Shayla Black Genre: Erotica Reviewer: Nikki K Stars: OOOOO (5 O’S..)

The mystery of Joaquin is revealed in His To take, and he has been worth the wait. Apart from his family for years, Joaquin Munoz returns home seeking the help of his Brother-in-law, Hunter Edington, when the case he’s working hits a roadblock. Hunter’s military training and experience as an investigator, and connections to all of the right people, convince Joaquin that together they can break the case.

The investigation leads Joaquin to Houston and the modest home of ballerina Bailey Benson. Secrets from Bailey’s past, if revealed, will mean certain death for the young dancer and Joaquin is not about to watch another young woman die at the hands of a deranged killer. In an effort to keep Bailey safe, Joaquin crosses the lines between right and wrong taking her life into his own hands, whether she likes it or not. With the help of his brother-in-law, Hunter Edington, he hides Bailey away in the most secure location available, Club Dominion, the private sex/BDSM club owned by Mitchell Thorpe.

As with all of the books in the Wicked Lovers series, His To Take is pack full of adventure and really hot sex! Shayla Black has written a new angle on the D/s lifestyle by introducing us to Joaquin, a reluctant Dom and Bailey his natural submissive. Joaquin’s brooding loner image drew me in immediately. But when he calls Bailey “Baby Girl”, oh dam…. I felt my own body heat rise to indecent levels. His To Take will not only entertain you, but will leave you ready to put a smile on the face of your significant other.

*I was provided a paperback ARC of the book for an honest review, but found myself unable to put it down. Paperback books are hard to read in the dark and out in public, so i purchased the Kindle ebook version as well.
