I guess I am in the minority with this book. I listened to the unabridged version of the book. Maybe if the narrator didn't have such an over the top contrived Cajun accent I may have liked Jack. Poor Morgan got on my nerves. How can you host a sex show and be so naive and inhibited? I have read a few BDSM books and I thought you needed to explain what would be happening when you embarked on this type of sexual relationship. I just felt like Jack was forcing Morgan to explore her repressed sexuality. I just wanted to slap her and many times. I wanted to just give up on this audiobook but I wanted to know who is stalking her. This is my first book by this author. I probably won't continue with this series.

I know its erotica and menage is perfectly normal for this gender, hence, I was feeling uncomfortable reading it because it was evident that Jack did not wanted to share Morgan with another man, although he did it himself in the past. But in this case Jack was emotionally involved and wanted Megan to keep to himself and I wish the author would choose that route..the book itself was hot enough to carry without the menage element..for me it took away something special between Jack and Megan..,I know i am very picky and selective but even my erotica has some boundaries and menage is something I do not enjoy. I just felt cheated..WHY the author had to spoil this book??? WHY MEGAN would want another man when she already had sexy delicious Jack? SHE IS BLIND!!! WHY can they be happy without the sacrifice? is it not enough? WHY their love had to be proven by sharing another man? Jack was hurting and so was I. That was as huge let down!
Without the menage scene it would have been 4 stars! I know for some its not a problem, but for me its a big factor and I wish I new this before reading this book.

I didn't know much about this series and I had never read any books by Shayla Black so yes I was going into this audiobook a bit blind. It wasn't because it was an erotica book that turned me off to this book it was too many instances that had me saying "eww" or "not cool" while listening to the audio. Morgan is a host of a cable TV show and is receiving threats against her life. Jack is a dominant that Morgan meets under the impression of getting to understand submission and dominance for her show. While at a meeting with Jack, Morgan's stalker starts shooting at her. Jack, of course, is also a bodyguard and automatically kicks into "I'll protect you mode" this is where the problem began for me. Jack does and says very inappropriate things while he's acting as her "bodyguard". Yes, there is a sub plot of revenge going on which is fine but some of the first comments from Jack were just icky. Also, Jack's grandpa who when asked by Jack to bring Morgan some clothes brings her lingerie?? The grandpa factor was disgusting. Deke was hot but not enough to sway my rating.

This book was hot and I loved it. Morgan O'Malley is running both from her own secret desires and a dangerous stalker. Leaving California for Texas seemed the perfect solution to hiding from the man stalking her. But when he finds her at a lunch meeting with Jack Cole, her dangerous stalker turns absolutely lethal. Jack is a well known dominant in the BDSM community who has be chatting with Morgan online. Jack has a plan, and it seems to be working out perfectly. He has arranged to get a meeting with his ex friends finance' in hopes of getting revenge. He plans to seduce Morgan, and then shove the affair in his ex friends face. Then he feels his revenge will be complete. But as they get five minutes into their meeting the stalker open fires on them at a cafe and Jack literally drags her into safety. That is after all his specialty being in the military and now a body guard protecting someone is second nature to him. Jack quickly decides that protecting Morgan until the stalker is caught is the perfect way to get close to her and to finally seduce her. Morgan is reluctant and suspicious at first, but finally agrees to accept his help. So Jack quickly takes her out of the city and into the back woods of Louisiana to his secluded cabin. This is where things get good quickly. Morgan is undeniably attracted to Jack. He is tall, dark, has a body to die for, and the charm and confidence to melt any female. And Jack quickly discovers that she is the woman he has been having dreams about for months now. He also sees the perfect submissive in her, if only she will admit it. He tries it her way and she doesn't feel anything and she tries it his way and she knows that he has proven his point. Jack is willing to make all her fantasies come true until she tells him that she wants a ménage and he realizes that he has feelings for her. This is one of my favorite books it had everything that I look for in a book hot sex scenes hot guys and girls and even action.

Wicked Ties by Shayla Black
4 out of 5 stars
This is the first book in a series called Wicked Lovers. I will just put out a warning that Ms. Black doesn't shy away at all from menage, so if that's a deal breaker for you, then you might want to stay away. I listened to this book on audible and I thought it was fantastic! We are introduced to Morgan, a talk show host who has some secret fantasies that she thinks makes her a horrible person, and Jack, a Cajun bodyguard who has some secrets of his own. This book also has a lot of BDSM elements, and more dirty language than I'm used to from her other books. This one seemed a little over-the-top in some areas, but I was really happy with the ending and where all of the characters were in their lives. There is a good plot moving throughout the story that isn't just all about their relationship. Morgan is being stalked, and that subplot throws in a nice little twist to the story. Overall, I really liked it and will be getting the second book as soon as possible. Great job!!

After reading tons of reviews I decided to give this book a try. I have been constantly on the look out for something resembling the Fifty Shades of Grey series; however this book does not resemble that series in any form.
The characters in this book had no chemistry between them. There was no true desire on my part to turn the page to see what happens next with tingly anticipation for the story. My need to turn the page lay in the thought would the book get any better, would there ever be a true connection with the main characters, would it ever end.
I have read Ms. Blacks books before and this is really not her best. The suspense of the book came from the thrill of asking 'would the stalker ever get his victim so that my torture would end.'
I have read my d/s novels. The real relationship of a d/s was never realized in this book. It seemed that Jake only wanted to constantly prove his power to make her do what he wanted her to do. Not even the true need or want to grant her true pleasure came into to it. There was no true bond of trust ever really established. It seemed to be only about what he wanted- her to submit because, his revenge because, the menage because.
I really, really, really didn't like being tied up in knots trying to finish this book to see if it would really suck until the end.
On a positive note. When the sex scenes did take place admist the endless repetative words they were hot. Nothing I would have to confess to in church but decent.
If your looking for better try The Submissive Trilogy

This book is 100% adult with Dom/Sub scenes and discussions. If you are not okay with that, then this is not going to be the book for you.
Me, WOW...this book was HOT HOT HOT!!!
The author knew how to draw you into her scenes and even had enough wording that you could picture everything in your head if you so desired (insert deviant grin). This book is not completely about the "baseball" (sex....my girlfriends at work and I use baseball metaphors at work so our phone customers don't necessarily catch on). Anywho, the book has an entire storyline as well. Two of them really, that converge into one big mess (for the characters).
Morgan meets Jack for her television show expecting to learn more about the Dom/Sub scene, he just so happens to also be a bodyguard and during their meeting Morgan's stalker starts shooting at her. Yeah, Jack had no clue about this stalker and vowed to protect her and steals her away to his cabin in the Louisiana swamps. Also, Morgan is pretending to be engaged to Brandon to throw off the stalker and this leads to the second part of the story that I am not gonna mention. Insert some Dom/Sub learning and scenes....some betrayal....the mystery of who the stalker is....and some more shooting.
The author definitely kept me interested with her story weaving. The "baseball" scenes were well written and sounded adult. No holding back for this author and no sugar coating. Good good book and I will keep this author on my list to read.

Life is a bit chaotic for Morgan O'Malley. Trying to shake a crazed stalker, she has quietly relocated halfway across the country. As the host of a popular late-night adult talk show, Morgan is excited and working hard on her second season. She is not about to let said stalker get in her way.
Chatting online with the charming and seductive Master J, Morgan thinks she has found the right person to help her research for the upcoming Dominant/submissive episode. After a background check, she agrees to meet him...for research purposes only, of course. The meeting has absolutely nothing to do with Master J tapping into Morgan's deepest, darkest fantasies or her very wet panties!
Bodyguard Jack Cole was wronged in the past by someone close to Morgan, and he is bent on revenge. Though he doesn't want to hurt Morgan, her complete sexual submission would fit perfectly into his vindictive plans. During their first face-to-face interview Jack, as Master J, knows his plan is working. Although Morgan may say otherwise, her body doesn't lie. A little personal experience is exactly what she needs to understand the D/s dynamic. Jack may have a few misgivings about using Morgan, but he is really just giving her what she truly desires. How could ultimate pleasure be bad?
Before the two can make any plans, their appointment is interrupted by a mysterious package and then gun fire! Morgan's stalker has found her yet again. Jack's training kicks in, and he speeds the reluctant Morgan out of harm's way. Safely ensconced in his remote cabin, Morgan finds herself irresistibly drawn to Jack's commanding attitude, and he discovers that she is more than just an attractive pawn. Is Morgan truly ready to face her shameful desires and submit? Will Jack be able to make her darkest fantasy a reality? Can Jack protect Morgan from looming danger, even when it's her heart that's in peril?
Wicked Ties is a deliciously kinky and naughty thriller that I devoured in one sitting! Cleverly balancing plot and erotic heat, Shayla Black has penned a satisfying tale of suspense and sexual awakening. Morgan is a strong woman who's uncomfortable with her sexual desires. Smart and mouthy, she provides the perfect foil to Jack, and never makes it easy for him. Jack is simply luscious! Attractive, charming, and in charge, he is just what I want in a hero. Even though I wanted to hate him, he was just too irresistible. As a fan of BDSM stories, the fantasy played out in Wicked Ties left me spellbound and begging for more. For lovers of blazing hot erotic romance, I can't recommend Wicked Ties enough!

I was recently introduced to Shayla Black via her latest Wicked Lovers novel, Ours to Love. After reading that steamy book, I had to read more, so I went in search of the other books in this series.
Wicked Ties begins the Wicked Lovers novels. Jack is completely yummy, and Morgan is just stubborn enough to spark his interest. Morgan is in danger, and Jack has the skills to keep her safe. However, Jack also has another reason for getting to close to Morgan, and though things heat up between the two, it could easily end in complete disaster.
Jack and Morgan are amazing characters, and after reading this book I was glad I bought several of the books to read. I could not wait to pick up the next one and see what happened!
Shayla Black has quickly been added to my list of MUST READ authors. If you like books with a bit of an edge, Shayla Black is the author for you!

Genre: Contemporary Romance/Erotica
Sex: :):):):) * Hothothothothot!
I need to start out by thanking whoever recommended Shayla Black to me. I enjoyed this book with the small exception of wanting to backhand the main female character, she got on my nerves because she felt guilty for wanting the things she did. Don't get me wrong, I get that, I'm just thankful I never had the time or energy to feel shameful for anything that my imagination cooks up, ya know? The story is great. The characters are great. The book was entertaining as all get out, and the sex strayed from the norm (always a plus in Seanna's Rule Book for Life). It is, however, very vanilla. If you are looking for BDSM look elsewhere, it was touched on but not really applied. Bondage and a couple spankings does not BDSM make. Good book, though.
P.S. DUDE!!! Did I mention that he's Cajun... and a Dom??? Ohhh-feakin-lala!!!

Emotionally scarred talk show host Morgan O'Malley is the victim of a stalker. Finding herself in danger, she must trust the one man who makes her nervous, Jack Cole. Will Morgan submit to her secret desires or will she give up the one man whom she wants to be tied to forever?
The host of a cable sex talk show, Morgan O'Malley is the victim of a relentless stalker. She secretly flies to Houston to stay with her half-brother Brandon and poses as his fiancé. With the hope that the stalker was left behind, Morgan continues to work even though her show is on hiatus. She contacts Master J, a well-known Dominant, to get information for an upcoming episode. Master J agrees to meet her the next day after pushing several of Morgan's hidden, secret, sexual buttons. Just when her day could not get any worse, Brandon walks in with an envelope that Morgan knows is from her stalker; he has found her. Refusing to give in and be afraid, Morgan travels to the location she and Master J agreed upon. As Morgan and Master J start talking, shots are fired and they are aimed at Morgan.
Ex-Special Forces, bodyguard, and dominant, Jack Cole has spent three years trying to find a way to pay back Brandon Ross. Redemption comes in the form of curious Morgan O'Malley, talk show host and Brandon's fiancé. Jack is thrilled when Morgan contacts him to get information on the practice of dominance and submission. He agrees to meet Morgan the next day to answer her questions. Immediately upon meeting Morgan, Jack senses her secret desire to submit to a man and sets his plan of seduction in motion. As he moves in, shots are fired in Morgan's direction. Jack's training kicks in and he spirits her away to safety, much to her dismay.
Hours later, Morgan wakes up alone. Frightened, she jumps up but notices Jack in the doorway watching her. Morgan doesn't know what she should be more scared of; her stalker, or Jack and the way he makes her yearn for him.
Jack knows it is only a matter of time before Morgan submits to him. He knows that Morgan is fighting hard with herself and her desire to remain in control. He figures one night of submission to him will be enough but he could not have been more wrong. Instead of revenge on Brandon Ross, the tables are turned. Jack doesn't count on falling for Morgan and decides that nothing on Earth, not even a stalker, will keep her from becoming his.
WICKED TIES by Shayla Black absolutely took my breath away. I am a dedicated fan of D/s, but never before have I read a book of this genre with such raw and powerful emotions. WICKED TIES wound itself around me and refused to let go. Full of passion and erotic love scenes, I found myself thinking of what it would be like to be Morgan. That is how real this book was to me. I did come to one conclusion: Jack Cole is welcome to use his ropes on me at any time!
WICKED TIES is an exceptional read that took me for an emotional ride that I did not want to end. I am delighted and thrilled to have found another author to read. Shayla Black has made a new fan and my bookshelf has a new, welcomed addition.

Hot! Hot! Hot! Shayla Black is an author to watch, with her steamy, suspense filled plot you'll be hooked from the 1st chapter, just make sure you've got a bucket of water on hand to cool you down. Morgan O'Malley's under threat from a stalker and has come to Houston to hide out by posing as the fiancé of her secret half-brother Brandon. This only serves to put her under the notice of Jack Cole who's determined to revenge himself against Brandon by stealing his woman. Incognito he seeks her out online posing as a dominant who's looking for a sexual relationship with her, and he intrigues her so much by his reading of her sexual needs that she agrees to meet him, only to nearly fall victim to a bullet. Jack appoints himself as her bodyguard, but finds that he's being driven by more than the need for vengeance. Jack is as alpha as they come and is about to teach Morgan how good it can be to completely bend to someone else's will, but don't worry, Morgan's no pushover and the only place she'll take orders is in the bedroom. This is dark, intense, carnal reading and all I can say is, next please!!

Morgan O'Malley is just doing research for her TV show when she tracks down mysterious dominant, 'J.' But there's something in his voice that appeals to her on more levels than just professional. When he insists that they get together, she agrees. That meeting becomes more serious when someone, almost certainly the man who's been stalking her, opens fire. 'J,' whose real name appears to be Jack, hustles her to safety--or is it really safe at all? Since the breakup of her last relationship, when Morgan revealed her secrets to her fiance, only to have them thrown back in her face, she's feared letting go--and Jack insists that she do just that.
Jack hasn't been a dominant as long as he has not to be able to recognize a submissive. Morgan can never find herself, achieve happiness if she insists on denying the person she truly is. And Jack is happy to take this sexy redhead and turn her into a sex machine. Maybe he has a bit of guilt over the secret he's hiding from her, and maybe he starts to feel that she's more than just another submissive. Still, how can it hurt if he helps her explore her submissive side--sounds like a win-win, right?
As they explore their desires and the powerful attraction that draws them together, Jack and Morgan both attempt to deny the way physical dependence is fostering emotional involvement. As Morgan opens her body, she's also opening her soul. But can Jack stand Morgan's ultimate secret, or will he crack under its pressure--and if he does crack, is Morgan now strong enough to fight for herself?
Authro Shayla Black delivers a super-sexy story. Bondage, spankings, domination, multiple penetration, toys, and even menage, play their parts in helping these two characters learn about themselves and each other. Black never loses touch of the emotional side of the developing relationship, however. The physical is always reflected in the more emotions of her characters, and closure only comes when both Jack and Morgan are able to free themselves of their fears.
If you enjoy a well-written erotic novel, you'll definitely want to check out WICKED TIES.

I'm always a sucker for a book that draws me in from the very first few pages. Right off the bat it started off very interesting & got me intrigued and I dove right in. Interesting story with likable characters. Jack is extremely alluring. And the sex is pretty hot. Especially the last scene. I like it had sub-plots going on also so it never got boring or repetitive. I love how they slowly but surely begin falling for each other. The circumstances get crazy at times lol But definitely a good read :) Only complaints are Morgan got on my nerves a few times she takes a while to start realizing things within herself & I didn't like the strip club scenes. Luckily its not too many scenes that take place at the strip club.

D/s has to be one of the hardest stories to write. One has to be a Dom. One has to be a sub. He sucked as a Dom and if he had been mine, I would have stabbed him in his sleep thinking he was my stalker. A Dom has an inherent job to push. He didn't push. He just took.He continued after she told him explicitly not too. I know one would argue that she had a safe word. But that didn't come into play until later. He had no feelings for her from the beginning except she was a means to an end. She was his revenge. He had no concern for her mental well being or really her physical one if it did not coincide with his major plan of revenge. He tried to make his motives somewhat altruistic by telling himself he would show her what she needed in her life, whether she wanted it or not and it would make it all better in the end. And he would do that within minutes of an attempt on her life or even if he practically had to rape her to show her this lesson. There can be no implied consent when you wake tied to a strangers bed. I would have been alligator bait. My half naked butt would have been running for my life. And if he had punished me, without my permission, when i had been released, he may have actually become the bait instead after he was chopped into small, bite sized morsels. And then when he forced her to trust him (which no doubt was some kind of victim transference due to her captivity) which he intended all along to keep her from holding anything back, his intent was purely selfish. It was to feed his ego. The kind of trust he insisted on, if he had been any Dom at all, he absolutely should have known would completely devastated her when you add it to her lack of experience and her mentally deranged ex. He just proved that he thought she was a slut to be used and cast aside. He knew her background and paid no heed. To say I disliked the way the story worked is apparent. But the original concept was sound. I would have been completely smitten if he had any redeeming qualities other than knowing how to give an orgasm. Now I've given my opinions on what I've read. But I want you to know that Ms. Black's books rarely ever miss my go to books when I need a good read. She will continue to be one of my favorite authors on my Kindle and I know my opinion and my outlook may differ from others. Myself, I will just have to put it under one of those things that wasn't my favorites. I'm sorry Ms Black that I didn't see what you did but it won't keep me from buying every book you are involved in because you are an extraordinary talent and I love almost all of your books.

Los Angeles based cable TV host Morgan O'Malley researches her subjects that she explores on her show "Turn Me On", which means she gets quite a head full of sex education as sex is the theme of her show. Her next program involves the BDSM scene in which she has answered an ad from a Master J who explains that the relationship between a dominant and a submissive requires much more trust than missionaries need. Since she also has a stalker bothering her, Morgan agrees to meet with Master J in his Louisiana territory.
However, her efforts to elude her assailant fail when someone shoots at her with Master J witnessing the incident. He goes into his day job mode as Jack Cole, professional bodyguard though the enemy seems to know every step she takes. As he teaches her to surrender her desires to him, he vows to keep her safe because he makes her WICKED TIES fantasies real and by doing that she reciprocates.
Though he being a bodyguard provides him an edge against the enemy that most people will not have, this is a thriller. The bondage and related DS sex scenes are torrid (those WICKED TIES are hot), but also enhance the plot of two people falling in love while a third party stalks them. Whether he is Master J or Jack, he is a dominant who believes he has found his submissive soulmate in Morgan. She becomes more than just a willing student as she trusts her body and soul with her mentor. Filled with twists Shayla Black turns up the heat in the boudoir without neglecting the suspense.

In the name of research, Morgan O'Malley arranges to meet a man that she only knows as "Master J". As the producer of a cable show called "Turn Me On", Morgan is interested in learning more about BDSM. She's hoping that Master J, as a well known dominant can help her. No one except for her ex-fiancée knows that she secretly fantasizes about being dominated herself. After her ex cruelly rejected her, Morgan has buried her needs as far down as possible. She is determined that she will be "normal", even if she never feels satisfied sexually.
There is only one reason that Jack Cole has agreed to meet Morgan O'Malley. That reason is revenge. Jack is determined to steal the woman of his enemy, Brandon Ross. His former best friend, Jack knows the best way to get revenge on Brandon is by doing exactly what Brandon did to him. When Jack meets Morgan, he realizes that there is far more to her than meets the eye. Soon, thoughts of revenge are the furthest thing from his mind. Determined to master her, Jack uses everything in his sexual arsenal to show Morgan that she is a born submissive.
Jack soon learns that Morgan's life is in danger from a stalker who has escalated from threatening notes to attempted murder. As a bodyguard, Jack knows he has exactly what he needs to get Morgan under his roof. As the cool days and steamy nights pass, Jack knows he can never let Morgan go. He also knows that she may never forgive him when she learns his true reason for searching her out in the first place.
WICKED TIES is a wonderful erotic romance suspense. There was a perfect balance between the erotica and the suspense. The sex and romance in the book blended together in just the right way. There are a few surprises here and there that definitely spiced the book up. I look forward to Shayla Black's next book.

Morgan O’Malley is a TV host for a late night show called “Turn Me On,” which talks about relationships and exploring sex. Her second season will be starting soon and Morgan wants to interview a man named Master J, who is an experienced Dom. Master J is also an ex-soldier and now bodyguard, whose real name is Jack Cole. Morgan has someone stalking her that has followed her from L.A. to Houston.
Jack is very pleased when he first meets Morgan at a café, even though she is in disguise. What Morgan does not know is Jack has his own reasons for wanting to help Morgan. He thinks she will be what he needs to get revenge on her half-brother, Brandon for having an affair with Jack’s wife years ago. Yet, Jack helps to keep Morgan out of danger with her stalker by hiding her where the stalker will not be able to find her. Unfortunately, Jack is not ready for his world to change when he gets to know Morgan and realizes she is a woman who longs to submit to a man. Can Morgan leave her past behind? Can Jack realize that his revenge will not make him truly happy before her stalker hurts Morgan? Will the stalker find Morgan before Jack and Morgan can realize they are meant for each other?
Initially the book was tough for me to get into, but once you get a few chapters in it becomes difficult to put down. The sex scenes are very hot while seeing Jack and Morgan open up to each other was what kept me turning the pages. Shayla Black did an amazing job writing this book, I am looking forward to reading the rest of the series. I want to know what is going to happen to all the other characters.
I enjoyed seeing Morgan begin to realize she had desires that were not the norm and how Jack helped her to accept who she is and would help her fulfill those desires inside her. Jack goes through a transformation in this book from wanting revenge to realizing protecting Morgan is far more important than to him. I would recommend this series to all my book loving friends and family if I enjoyed the book I am sure they would also!

I read this book twice. Once for fun (and I saw a few things that concerned me) and then once for a breakdown for book discussion. There are so many things wrong with this book from a BDSM perspective I am trying to find something good about the book.
First this couple just met so there is no trust built between the two of them and she should NOT call him Master or Sir until they know each other better. By the end of the book it had only been 2 weeks, still not long enough in my opinion. Second when I tell someone no they had better be listening. The guy in this book wouldn't take no for an answer. I'm sorry when a woman says no, it means no. This book puts the community back because some dumb cluck dom will read this book and think this kind of treatment of any man or woman is okay when it is NOT.
If you don't know a subject at the very least investigate it by meeting people within the community.
There is never anything absolute in the bedroom with a dom and sub relationship.....it is a negotiation every time.

Well damn!! I bought this book at RAW on a whim. I had read Secret Desire or something and it was O-K..but nothing I felt the need to discover more.
Wicked Ties!!..WoW. I read this in a day. I just couldnt put it down and when I did I was thinking about it. As a woman who loves the D/s aspect of sexuality I thought this story was great. As a vindictive woman, Jack's dirt in the begining didnt really bother me to the point of being turned off. I loved the way he pushed her and was relentless. He was so intuned to her vibe. She needed it. Now would it work in real life..No,a true Master wouldnt be quite so pushy but damn it was sexy when Jack did and it worked on a Saturday afternoon.
I loved that she added Deke and Jack gave her everything that she wanted even with his own little demons.
The tension started word one and the story was great. I can't wait for the next book in this series. I might even have to read a few more other things to bide my time.

It reads really well as a mystery/adventure, but the sex part is maybe a little over stereotyped. It's an enjoyable read, and the plot twists enough to satisfy me. I was wrong on who the guilty one was till it was revealed, a very good job by the author there. Porn level is medium to hard, but mostly medium. Worth your time, but read it for the story, not the implied sizzle.

I was hooked on buying this book from an excerpt that
I read where Jack kept asking Morgan "Why are you so
afraid of your sexuality?" And throughout this excerpt
he kept going back to this question. I even emailed
Shayla and begged her to send me this book immediately
so I could read it NOW! I ended up ordering online
immediately (pre-order) and it was my lucky week because
in no time I received this book and devoured it.
My heart started racing because I was now Morgan and
OMG depending on how you were brought up - she thinks
it's wrong to feel all these explicit fantasies in her mind
and she can take care of herself. She doesn't need
anybody dominating her EVER! I love independent
heroines and Morgan is certainly that so it makes it really
easy to feel everything she feels and thinks.
Master J (Jack) knows differently. This is a sizzling HOT
read and I loved it. My heart got a work-out at several parts
of this book. I won't go into detail with the stalker and all
because it is said before me here.
Another really HOT part of this book is Deke! Woohoo!!!
He has to get his story!! Please~! Pretty Please~?!
You don't want to miss Master J and Morgan!

This was hot, steamy, addictive stuff from the word go. The story was solid and so were the hugely powerful alpha males, I'd love to be able to keep one in my closet for Saturday nights. I have to admit I'm not really into this Submissive/Dominance world, but if anything is going to make me think again about the subject, then this book certainly will. It is wicked, in a naughty but nice sort way, and I can't wait for some more.
I can highly recommended this book, also have a look at Decadent; Shayla's other book, which is equally excellent. Plus for sheer unrestrained erotic passion check out Suzie Van Aartman's 100 Percent Erotica, it's not Tolstoy, but boy is it raunchy.

Wickedly fabulous is what I say. Hot steamy romance, hot characters, great plot and a happy ending, everything a book should have.
Her writing style, characters and over all creativity is mind blowing. She grabs you in the very first pages of the book and doesn't let go until you feel spent (in the best possible way of course).
The hero and heroine in this book are perfect for each other. The story is gripping from the get go and continues to be throughout the book.
Shayla Black doesn't disappoint to deliver you a great read. Wicked Ties is a page turner - that can't be put down until you've finished it.

So I have read 50 and I have read the other series basically the spin off of it..then I picked up Wicked!! I loved it! While I liked the other two series I got sick of the whole we were sexually abused and thats why we have sex so much bit. This was fast it was hot and nobody had issues!! Loved it! Loved that Morgan was a independent strong woman and could take care of herself! The men were HOT! I'm thrilled with it and cannot wait to read the next one!

This is a hot and steamy start to a very good series! The story line is very good and I really loved the characters. Morgan and Jack are absolutely made for each other. A hot alpha and body guard and a sweet underlying story. This is a very good read - 5 stars!

You know the books in this genre that have titles referring to fire and passion and all that high-powered stuff, but then you read the book and the title is completely off. This book should have been called something like that, fire_passion_sizzling_breathless, all these words apply. Nevertheless, it is also beautifully written and portrays the intimate needs of two people like a flower opening to the rays of the sun. Beautifully and exceptionally done!!! Thank you for writing this book, SB!

Not the worst but definitely not the best. Lots of plot holes and a bad example of a D/s relationship. Jake is supposed to be this master Dom but he constantly looses control and betrays his subs trust. I wasn't even rooting for him at the end. I thought she should have left his ass! Also there were several times the police should have been called. 1. When the stalker breaks in to Morgan's house and leaves a sperm deposit on her bed (hello! DNA!) 2. When the stalker shoots at her in broad daylight in the middle of a crowded city. The other glaring error is when Morgan needs a blood transfusion but her blood type is "so rare" that only her half brother can donate for her. Her blood type was stated as being AB+ with is a universal receiver. Literally any human being in the hospital could have given her blood. I just think it's lazy and sloppy to put that detail in the story without doing a quick google search to see if you are being a complete moron.

This book has many long drawn out sex scenes with bondage, domination, submission, rear door activity, ménage a trios (2 guys and a girl), and a lot of sex toys. I like this author's writing style. Before the sex scenes started, I was very drawn into the story and enjoyed it. The characters are good. The plot is good, but I wanted more of it. I wanted more story and less sex. The only other weakness was at times there was a little too much pondering in the minds of the characters before and/or during sex.
Story brief: Morgan and Brandon share the same father but different mothers. The father is a senator and paid a large settlement to Morgan's mother to keep Morgan's parentage a secret. Morgan has a stalker. She went to stay with Brandon for awhile to flee the stalker. Since no one knew they were related, they told others they were engaged. Brandon once had an affair with Jack's wife, causing her to leave Jack. Jack wants revenge and arranges to meet Morgan. His plan is to hurt Brandon by having sex with Morgan, his supposed fiancé. The stalker shoots at Morgan while she is meeting Jack. As a result, Jack takes her to his home for awhile for her safety. During this time they have sex. He talks her into trying submission.
Sexual language: strong/erotic. Number of sex scenes: seventeen, most of them several pages long. Setting: current day Lafayette, Louisiana and nearby swamp area. Copyright: 2007. Genre: erotic contemporary romance with some suspense.

Morgan had a fantasy she wanted fulfilled and Jack had a vendetta he wanted to see it come to past. But when seeing Morgan for the first time, strong feelings came rushing in. But can the lies from both of them drive them apart? Great read..

I waited to buy this book for a very long time because of its higher price than most kindle erotic romances. I feel like if it would have cost the average $5 the rating would be higher. It was good. Sexy. However, and maybe I am just reading too much of the same thing, it felt a little cliche at parts. Perhaps I built it up too much. You are getting a good erotic read here that is full of plot rather than story sprinkled around sex. I am giving this book a "good" three. There was nothing wrong with this story except the price in my mind. If you are a shopper who doesn't mind spending over $10 on a ebook, then you would probably rate this books at a 4.5.

SPOILER ALERT!!!
I don't agree with all the glowing reviews for this book. So many scenes are SO implausible. For example, in the first major scene with the hero (Jack) of the book, the heroine (Morgan) is getting shot at by a stalker. They take cover in a strip joint run by Jack's friend. Instead of calling the police they decide that Morgan is going to sneak out of the club dressed as the owner in stilettos and some skimpy outfit. Ridiculous. Now add to that - Jack says he has to run his hands all over her or the people in town won't believe its really the owner of the club she's disguised as. After knowing her for 5 seconds he's putting his fingers where he shouldn't and Morgan barely protests. What a wimp.
It just keeps getting worse and every scene. I've read books with dominant submissive relationships that did a good job developing the dynamic. This is not one of them.

So, when I heard all the good reviews for Wicked Ties I was excited about getting it from my local library and reading it. I had never ventured into the world of erotica with a focus on BDSM and was a little curious about it. The book didn't disappoint at all because ALL of the sex scenes had this element of BDSM---even the one scene of vanilla sex that the main characters had. I liked the book a lot. It was well developed sexually and I could understand where the main characters were coming from especially Morgan's indecision over her sexual leanings. It is very understandable to feel depraved when your sexual fantasies aren't "normal". But define normal. What is a normal sex practice? Vanilla sex?... Boring after a while. I rather put some chocolate and strawberry sauce, peanuts, cherries, etc on top to mix things up. After all not everybody can be sexually satisfied with "normal sex". Although I praise this book at the same time I have to say that I am conflicted about Wicked Ties because this is my first encounter with BDSM in a erotic novel and I felt a little weird after reading it---conflicted just like Morgan was. I mean I enjoyed the very descriptive and expressive language but I felt kind of weird about the type of sex that they were having in the book. Hell, even the menage that the characters had later on wasn't as conflicting for me as the BDSM. Another thing was the fact that the romance was not as developed as the sex was. The sex was steaming hot but the love factor had me questioning the book. I had a hard time understanding the concept of falling in love over a short period of time(days) with a person. I feel that Morgan and Jack were more in lust than love after the short time period in which the novel occurred. But overall the book was a great read and if you're interested in BDSM in erotic fiction this could be an introductory book for you as it was for me.

This was the first book by Shayla Black and I can guarantee you, it will not be the last. She did an excellent job of mixing the steamy lust-filled moments with suspense. The character development was perfect. I could feel an instant connection with the characters and could truly feel the connection they had with eachother. I loved the plot and look forward to reading many more of her books

I got this book from a friend who also had read the book of Elia Mirca: Julie's Passion Julie's Passion Book 1: A Diary of Greed and Lust and 50 Shades of Grey before. First I was intrigued by the cover. Great. The story itself resembles more the 50 shades of grey story. Morgan is willing to submit to the alpha male Jack. But then the similarities end and the story goes its own way. Not only is Jack not rich he's also not such a wicked character as this Mr. Grey. Liked reading it.

The hero and heroine in this book are perfect for each other. The story is gripping from the get go and continues to be throughout the book.
Shayla Black doesn't disappoint to deliver you a great read. Wicked Ties is a page turner - that can't be put down until you've finished it.

So I have read 50 and I have read the other series basically the spin off of it..then I picked up Wicked!! I loved it! While I liked the other two series I got sick of the whole we were sexually abused and thats why we have sex so much bit. This was fast it was hot and nobody had issues!! Loved it! Loved that Morgan was a independent strong woman and could take care of herself! The men were HOT! I'm thrilled with it and cannot wait to read the next one!

This is a hot and steamy start to a very good series! The story line is very good and I really loved the characters. Morgan and Jack are absolutely made for each other. A hot alpha and body guard and a sweet underlying story. This is a very good read - 5 stars!

You know the books in this genre that have titles referring to fire and passion and all that high-powered stuff, but then you read the book and the title is completely off. This book should have been called something like that, fire_passion_sizzling_breathless, all these words apply. Nevertheless, it is also beautifully written and portrays the intimate needs of two people like a flower opening to the rays of the sun. Beautifully and exceptionally done!!! Thank you for writing this book, SB!

Not the worst but definitely not the best. Lots of plot holes and a bad example of a D/s relationship. Jake is supposed to be this master Dom but he constantly looses control and betrays his subs trust. I wasn't even rooting for him at the end. I thought she should have left his ass! Also there were several times the police should have been called. 1. When the stalker breaks in to Morgan's house and leaves a sperm deposit on her bed (hello! DNA!) 2. When the stalker shoots at her in broad daylight in the middle of a crowded city. The other glaring error is when Morgan needs a blood transfusion but her blood type is "so rare" that only her half brother can donate for her. Her blood type was stated as being AB+ with is a universal receiver. Literally any human being in the hospital could have given her blood. I just think it's lazy and sloppy to put that detail in the story without doing a quick google search to see if you are being a complete moron.

This book has many long drawn out sex scenes with bondage, domination, submission, rear door activity, ménage a trios (2 guys and a girl), and a lot of sex toys. I like this author's writing style. Before the sex scenes started, I was very drawn into the story and enjoyed it. The characters are good. The plot is good, but I wanted more of it. I wanted more story and less sex. The only other weakness was at times there was a little too much pondering in the minds of the characters before and/or during sex.
Story brief: Morgan and Brandon share the same father but different mothers. The father is a senator and paid a large settlement to Morgan's mother to keep Morgan's parentage a secret. Morgan has a stalker. She went to stay with Brandon for awhile to flee the stalker. Since no one knew they were related, they told others they were engaged. Brandon once had an affair with Jack's wife, causing her to leave Jack. Jack wants revenge and arranges to meet Morgan. His plan is to hurt Brandon by having sex with Morgan, his supposed fiancé. The stalker shoots at Morgan while she is meeting Jack. As a result, Jack takes her to his home for awhile for her safety. During this time they have sex. He talks her into trying submission.
Sexual language: strong/erotic. Number of sex scenes: seventeen, most of them several pages long. Setting: current day Lafayette, Louisiana and nearby swamp area. Copyright: 2007. Genre: erotic contemporary romance with some suspense.

Morgan had a fantasy she wanted fulfilled and Jack had a vendetta he wanted to see it come to past. But when seeing Morgan for the first time, strong feelings came rushing in. But can the lies from both of them drive them apart? Great read..

I waited to buy this book for a very long time because of its higher price than most kindle erotic romances. I feel like if it would have cost the average $5 the rating would be higher. It was good. Sexy. However, and maybe I am just reading too much of the same thing, it felt a little cliche at parts. Perhaps I built it up too much. You are getting a good erotic read here that is full of plot rather than story sprinkled around sex. I am giving this book a "good" three. There was nothing wrong with this story except the price in my mind. If you are a shopper who doesn't mind spending over $10 on a ebook, then you would probably rate this books at a 4.5.

SPOILER ALERT!!!
I don't agree with all the glowing reviews for this book. So many scenes are SO implausible. For example, in the first major scene with the hero (Jack) of the book, the heroine (Morgan) is getting shot at by a stalker. They take cover in a strip joint run by Jack's friend. Instead of calling the police they decide that Morgan is going to sneak out of the club dressed as the owner in stilettos and some skimpy outfit. Ridiculous. Now add to that - Jack says he has to run his hands all over her or the people in town won't believe its really the owner of the club she's disguised as. After knowing her for 5 seconds he's putting his fingers where he shouldn't and Morgan barely protests. What a wimp.
It just keeps getting worse and every scene. I've read books with dominant submissive relationships that did a good job developing the dynamic. This is not one of them.

So, when I heard all the good reviews for Wicked Ties I was excited about getting it from my local library and reading it. I had never ventured into the world of erotica with a focus on BDSM and was a little curious about it. The book didn't disappoint at all because ALL of the sex scenes had this element of BDSM---even the one scene of vanilla sex that the main characters had. I liked the book a lot. It was well developed sexually and I could understand where the main characters were coming from especially Morgan's indecision over her sexual leanings. It is very understandable to feel depraved when your sexual fantasies aren't "normal". But define normal. What is a normal sex practice? Vanilla sex?... Boring after a while. I rather put some chocolate and strawberry sauce, peanuts, cherries, etc on top to mix things up. After all not everybody can be sexually satisfied with "normal sex". Although I praise this book at the same time I have to say that I am conflicted about Wicked Ties because this is my first encounter with BDSM in a erotic novel and I felt a little weird after reading it---conflicted just like Morgan was. I mean I enjoyed the very descriptive and expressive language but I felt kind of weird about the type of sex that they were having in the book. Hell, even the menage that the characters had later on wasn't as conflicting for me as the BDSM. Another thing was the fact that the romance was not as developed as the sex was. The sex was steaming hot but the love factor had me questioning the book. I had a hard time understanding the concept of falling in love over a short period of time(days) with a person. I feel that Morgan and Jack were more in lust than love after the short time period in which the novel occurred. But overall the book was a great read and if you're interested in BDSM in erotic fiction this could be an introductory book for you as it was for me.

This was the first book by Shayla Black and I can guarantee you, it will not be the last. She did an excellent job of mixing the steamy lust-filled moments with suspense. The character development was perfect. I could feel an instant connection with the characters and could truly feel the connection they had with eachother. I loved the plot and look forward to reading many more of her books

I got this book from a friend who also had read the book of Elia Mirca: Julie's Passion Julie's Passion Book 1: A Diary of Greed and Lust and 50 Shades of Grey before. First I was intrigued by the cover. Great. The story itself resembles more the 50 shades of grey story. Morgan is willing to submit to the alpha male Jack. But then the similarities end and the story goes its own way. Not only is Jack not rich he's also not such a wicked character as this Mr. Grey. Liked reading it.

This story was very sexy but contained a plot that was rife with suspense so the reader didn't feel mired down with the sexing. I love the way Black created a story that contained very unique characters with well thought out backstories. The sexual tension, as well as the tension created by Morgan's stalker amped the book up quite a bit. And then when the identity of the stalker is revealed...*mind blown*...I was not expecting that little twist but I loved every second of it. Definitely a great intro to a new to me series.

I inadvertently read some of the other wicked lovers series novels before this one. Wicked Ties, like the other wicked lovers series novels slowly brings the reader into the story and its characters and the reader ends up not wanting the story to end.

This book expolres the Dom/sub issue. Ordinarily, that subject makes me uncomfortable, but this book was one of the better ones I have read. I do however take issue with the author/characters views on vanilla sex. It can be boring, but anything in sex can be boring if that is all you do.
I wonder if the heroine, later down the road will get "bored" with the Dom/sub games she plays with the hero becaause(except for one scene) that is all they do.
Also, I take issue with the menage a tois scene. I mean if the hero loves his heroine, why does he share her with another man? Does he really love her? I am not connvinced he does. I know that it is a fantasy of hers, but some things should remain a fantasy, in my opinion.
If Dom/sub is your thing you will probably enjoy this book. There are no whips, chains, canes things like that. But there is a menagea tois scene so be warned.

This was the first book by Shayla Black that I had read. She was recommended to me by a few friend who knew that I enjoyed Lora Leigh. I really do enjoy the alpha male characters and this book at plenty of that, actually it was a bit much. While I found that the book kept my interest and the sex scenes were great, I kept getting hung up on the Dominant/Submissive thing. I tried so hard to get over it but I can't, it really ruined it for me. I did give the book 4 stars because it was well written. I think if you are ok with the Dominant/Sumissive thing they you will really really like this book!

Great story, great erotica. Sooo glad I could purchase it and will probably read it over and over again. I really liked the characters and their interactions. The dialogue wasn't cheesey like some romance novels I've read and the sex scenes were hot and to the point with great imagery without being too overdressed with metaphors. I'll definitely be looking into more books by the author.

I am all for the dominant/submissive characters and a good plot/storyline. However this was a little disappointing. I wanted more of a story and all I got was a drama filled sex guide. I wanted the guy being all heroic and beating people up most of the story instead of how many ways to seduce a insecure girl. Well at least there was some action.

Since reading 50 Shades, I've been on an all out reading erotica kick. I was given recommendations to read this...it was okay but lets just say it didn't meet all my expectations. It's a decent read but it took way too long to get to the goods. And then apparently the series continues on without much from the main characters of this book, which is the first book in the series. So overall, sexy erotica but nothing compared to 50 Shades and/or Bared to You.

A little strong on the bdsm/domination, in comparison to what I'd usually read, but a friend recommended it and told me that wouldn't bother me, and she was right. Lots of steamy scenes but still plenty of story, and a couple I cared about enough to want to see them end up together.

This book is full of sexual assault, mansplaining, and a weak female lead who is supposedly a spitfire but can't stand up for herself at all. I've read and enjoyed a great many books in this genre, but this one manages to demean women and men at the same time. Would give 0 stars if it was possible.

Story is about Morgan, a tv talk show host who handles sex issues who wants to do a show on BDSM and has an interview set up with Jack who is a security/body guard and a well known authority on BDSM. Unfortunately Jack has his own plans for her in addition to filling her in on how BDSM works which are not very straight forward. Additionally ,Morgan currently has a psychopathic stalker and needs to use Jack's services when things heat up in that area of her life, as well Jack certainly has his own way of heating things up teaching her about BDSM and that she is a submissive. She learns that BDSM is all about trust and that will become a bigger and bigger issue as this book plays out. Morgan also starts to understand about her fantasies and desires and that they do not necessarily make her a bad person as those in her past have led her to believe. Loved the ending when the stalker was revealed.

Great book. Relationship felt kinda rushed, but I loved the characters. Got a little annoyed at how easily aroused Morgan was, it was like a light breeze would have her panties wet. However, trying to figure out who the stalker was had me wanting to turn the page more and more. I stayed up until 3 am to finish the book and it was worth it. Will definitely get into this series.
