Sweet Submission
Who knew a rose could hurt so good?
Valentine's Day is the busiest day of the year for Harper Allison and her cupcake bakery. She's not personally interested in the trumped up holiday until she receives an anonymous gift with explicit instructions that include a rendezvous at the most upscale BDSM club in the city.
From the moment Alex lays eyes on Harper at the Glass Kat Club he wants her. And what Alex wants Alex gets. He formulates a plan with his best friend, one guaranteed to fulfill Harper’s unspoken desires and hidden fantasies.
Unfortunately for Alex, one night is all Harper is prepared to give. Her life is complicated enough without having two Doms pushing her to submit, no matter how incredibly sexy they are. Until the familiar voice of a stranger reminds her…Maybe she doesn’t know Alex at all.

A quick short read but right to the point. Harper the baker who is now living in NYC working for her friend Zia in her famous bake shop and Alex, wealthy businessman also a Dom who spots Harper one evening at an exclusive club and notices her response to the ongoing scene. She ended up there because her help was needed with the food. Alex decides to pursue her and Harper at Zia's urging presses her to go. Harper's past is clouded, we don't get the complete picture of her leaving NC and the crazy man she was supposed to be married to, but I have an inkling we'll see that story in book two. I really liked Jeremy who is Alex's friend. Harper was at her best when she was baking and Alex was all Dom. Totally. Except when he let that soft spot for Harper sneak in and bite him in the backside.
Looking forward to reading book 2.

This was a short short read, which was a perfect introduction to an author I had not read before. The female lead is likable from the get go. She has her own business, a bakery, (what's not to like!). After catering a collaring at a club she gets an invitation from a secret admirer. While it is total fantasy, it is delicious & sexy. It moves fast, of course, although the ending left me unsatisfied as it felt 'unfinished', which I guess, is to be expected in so short a story. Also, there wasn't any emotional development of the male character, which I miss. It was a fun read & I'm looking forward to the next book of her's I read. Thanks to Cariad for introducing me to this author!

Review Posted @ http://shaynareneesspicyreads.blogspo...
"Tonight, you're mine to use as I wish."
This brilliant novella certainly packed a punch! My eyes were glued to the pages all the way through. Eliza knows how to keep a girl captivated that's for sure.
Imagine your deepest, darkest fantasy comes true. You are just living your lonely mundane life and suddenly you receive flowers from an admirer with strict instructions. Next thing you know you are at a club being dominated by two SEXY AS HELL Doms. They are worshiping your body and captivating your soul. Well that is just a Saturday night for me, but for the rest of you novices, it is experiencing PURE BLISS!
Having to set aside her submissive side for her vanilla husband was difficult. Alex brings out the best submissive in her, but can Harper take it past fantasy, and make it her reality, or is one night enough? Alex can't stop thinking about the woman he saw across the room at the club. He noticed the response she got from watching the scenes. Alex wanted to be the one to fulfill her fantasy. He will awaken the beautiful submissive and make her HIS.
"If I only knew. But it doesn't matter. Call it lust, call it chemistry, whatever. I crave you, baby."
Loved it to pieces! Seriously, this was a great read, and all I can say is I wanted MORE! There was great chemistry between Harper and Alex. The sex scenes were off the charts hot, and Alex was demanding yet gentle....the perfect Dom in my book!

This was a very sensual and delicious treat from Eliza Gayle. Although the story is very short, you can definitely feel the chemistry between Alex and Harper. It featured a bit of light BDSM play and a night that fulfills Harper's fantasies. Jeremy's part was just a tad bit awkward at the end, but I would love for him to get a story so we can learn more about him. It was very cute that she included the recipe for red velvet cupcakes at the end too! Overall a delectable read, and I look forward to more!

A nice, short, sweet (cupcakes!) sexy story with light BDSM. Hero watches heroine while she is setting up a catering gig at an exclusive BDSM club. He witnesses her watching a menage/collaring ceremony in the club and is immediately attracted to her, realizes that this is a fantasy she craves and is determined to give it to her and then some!
*Ms. Gayle also adds a recipe for Red Velvet Cupcakes at the end of the story which was sweet treat!

I think this story is well written and hot hot hot.It's a sensual and erotic story,and it's going to steam your windows. The story keeps you interested and anticipating, what it's going to happen next. And can they have something together or is't just one time thing.

This was a cute little story about adventuring into the unknown and daring to trust. I really enjoyed this book because of the trust, the desire to take chances and spreading wings to be the person that you want to be and not taking anything less than that.

I really enjoyed this book, I liked that she went with what she truly desired instead of letting her head get in the way. The book was sexy, spicy and oh so hot. Alex even had me squirming in my chair.

This a cute, quick read and one that is good for those quiet moments when you want to take a small fantasy from the real world. I enjoyed the story, but wanted more. Howeve,r it's one I can pull out at any time to enjoy.

Delicious, sensual, erotic and just plain good.
Alex reads something in her when he sees her and even while he's questioning how she managed to get to him, he's falling...really good short story.

I didn't like this one as much as the first one I read by Eliza Gayle but it was okay to read. I didn't feel as if things were concluded how they should of been. It didn't seem open or honest enough.

My only complaint was it was too short!

I really liked this story but it was way too short. I wanted much more.
Now, I want Jeremy's story.

This is a SWEET story that doesn't take long. I wish there were some real life Alex's floating around. He saw what he wanted and made it happen. Great Read. Now on to the next one!!! :-)

Sweet Submission is a cute romantic story with smoking hot scenes. I really enjoyed how the story played out between the two main characters.
