This was a decent book. I feel the story jumped around and went way to fast.

I got this short story free through Instafreebie.

Hannah Cohen applies for a summer internship at an upscale auction house because she has had a crush for one of the bosses for years. She gets the intermship and spends more time thinking about her boss than working.

Little does she know that he is a dom who thinks Hannah can be the perfect sub and wants her for himself.

It's a pity it was just a novella, it could have been a better story if it had been longer.

Definitely not my favorite book I’ve read. I wasn’t a fan of the writing style or really the story. I couldn’t connect with any of the characters and it just was kind of weird to read. Not to mention that it was super short. It just seemed like an incredibly underdeveloped story, in my opinion.

Nice start

What a nice start! There is so much potential in this storyline, so many directions to go. I am eager to read more!!

This was a good novella with a good description of the BDSM world that goes a little more in depth than I’ve seen in the past. Being a novella though, there just wasn’t enough relationship building between Bruce and Hannah. I did enjoy that Hannah was a plus size protagonist which is always nice to see, and I enjoyed the friendship between Elise, Tab and Hannah as well.

This puts me into mind of The Submissive series by Tara Sue Me. The works are different but I like that this novella hints at he other books in the series. It doesn't cover sex scenes much or the budding romance but dives traitor into Hannah's feelings for Bruce and the longing he stirs in her. Might add the rest of the series to my shelf.

As He Bids

I enjoyed this book and can't wait to read the next one in the series. I am new to Olivia Riga, but really enjoying the couple I have read so far.

Gossamer-thin wish fulfilment sexy times nonsense with a BDSM flavour. If you're in the market for that sort of thing, it'll work alright as a brief diversion, I think. The male lead definitely needs to learn to communicate, though!

This story has potential. But honestly it's way too short. However I did enjoy it but the characters weren't as developed. I am interested in reading the sequel though.
