About
Rude Awakening by Sam Crescent & Natalie Dae
If you enjoyed Fifty Shades of Grey by E.L James, or Risque Business by HelenKay Dimon, then this book might just be for you! Make this one of your top romance novels of the year!
One man, one woman...both having a rude awakening. Will Ruby’s ex—Master succeed in his kidnap plan?
Harry Knowles has taught subs for years but hasn’t found a subservient woman he’d like to spend the rest of his life with...until the beautiful Ruby comes into his life, stumbling onto his property in the snow and collapsing from exhaustion. He takes her into his home and nurtures her, showing her that the BDSM lifestyle she’d previously been living wasn’t what BDSM is all about.
Ruby has run from an abusive relationship. Having shared the past few years with a sadistic man, she’s skittish and unsure of herself, but Harry encourages her to blossom. He teaches her not only the true meaning of BDSM but also to love herself—something she’s failed to do in the past.
Their life has the promise of being idyllic, but her former lover, a man known only as Master, has other ideas on that score...
Sam Crescent
About the Author:
Sam Crescent has always had a love of fiction, through her teen years she would find friendship between the pages rather than in an actual person. By the time she turned sixteen she discovered mills and boon and never looked back. She loved the quick happily-ever-after read. A guarantee that no matter what happened the heroes and heroines would always find their soul mate. After college and starting a degree, one lonely bored night she searched the internet looking for a new author to read. On that night and for the years to come she discovered romantica and erotic writing.
