The Masochist

"You can have every part of me. Why am I not allowed to have any part of you?"

Blake Higgs knows exactly what he wants.

Pain. Control. The freedom that comes from placing himself in someone else's hands and trusting them to know how far he can go.

What he does not want is Adrian Holt.

Cold, severe, and relentlessly infuriating, Adrian is the last man Blake should desire. He is also Blake's boss, and the only man capable of reducing Blake to silence with two simple words.

Good boy.

Behind Adrian's rigid composure is a sadist who knows how to turn pain into pleasure and submission into something dangerously close to peace. What begins as a series of reckless encounters soon becomes an arrangement neither of them can walk away from.

At the Knot, Adrian gives Blake everything he craves.

Everything except himself.

But the longer their arrangement continues, the harder it becomes to keep their desire contained.

Blake has always known how to surrender his body.

But wanting Adrian's heart may demand more than either of them is prepared to give.

A dark, slow-burn, Age-gap, BDSM-charged MM romance — The Masochist is the fourth book in The Crimson Knot series.
