First of all, let me just say, I was blown away by this debut book from Stoni Alexander! I was very quickly sucked into Colton and Brigit's world. I enjoyed their banter and the fact that she was a strong woman. She wouldn’t let him run all over her. Except in the bedroom. The chemistry between these two was palpable and yet felt real. They made a great team and worked very well together. I enjoyed watching them balance their work and their personal time. It was a new experience for both of them and they had to find a way. In the midst of their budding relationship, both have something from their past hanging over them. I didn’t want to put the book down as I needed to know how things would turn out. The twists and turns held my attention and I thought Stoni did a great job to keep things hidden from the reader until the right time. She held me captive throughout this read and I HIGHLY recommend this book!
She's desperate for the one man she must avoid at all costs...
Wealth manager Brigit Farnay despises Colton Mitus. And with good reason. He ripped away her family’s company during the most painful time in her life.

And then she finds out about the erotic games he plays…
Corporate raider Colton Mitus is success and power personified. He demands control in the boardroom and in the bedroom. So he shouldn’t be tempted by the newest member of the Mitus team. But he is. Brigit challenges him and frustrates him, but also quiets the demons that haunt him, especially as she agrees to be drawn into his secret, sinful world.
The most lucrative deal of Colton’s career places Brigit’s family’s company in jeopardy. When old enemies return hell-bent on ruining him, Brigit is the only person who can save him. But she’s been keeping secrets that could destroy everything…

So after reading The Mitus Touch, I was excited to be able to dive right into The Wilde Touch! We saw a glimpse of Alexandra in the first book and I was excited to get to know her. Second chance love story? Yes, please! Alexandra had a hard, but good childhood thanks to her brother and her mom. They kept things hidden from her and we learn about those things throughout this book. She isn't one to have relationships. So when she finds herself back in DC, she finds a sister club to the one she belonged to in LA. She soon hits it off with a charming, intense man. And let me tell ya, it's H-O-T-T! This is one area of her life she can give up control. The rest of her life isn't going so spectacularly. Her boss is a total douchebag, she doesn't have many friends and her mother isn't doing well. She finds herself without a place to stay and her brother's friend and the man she's tried avoiding, Crockett, is there for her. Soon the chemistry is unavoidable and they can't stay away from each other. I loved their second chance story! Crockett has some things going on in his life that aren't working out so well also and he finds support and strength from Alexandra. She's able to help him in ways neither of them expected. I enjoyed the mystery/suspense happening around them and these two worked well together! I was sucked into their story and devoured this book! I do recommend reading The Mitus Touch before reading The Wilde Touch.
Emmy-winning journalist Alexandra Reed returns to the DC area with two goals in mind—care for her ailing mom and steer clear of devastatingly handsome Crockett Wilde. But the man who stole her heart, then broke it, is impossible to avoid. As her life spins out of control, she finds pleasure in her secret escape—a sex-play club. And that’s where things really heat up…
Tech CEO Crockett Wilde is at the top of his game, but beneath his calm surface lies a raging volcano. When he finds the monster who abducted his sister, he’ll unleash a decade of pain. The one person who can subdue his demons—beautiful, headstrong Alexandra—wants nothing to do with him. Yet he’s determined to set the record straight and not let the love of his life get away.
As Alexandra follows a trail of suspicious incidents at the kink club, Crockett seizes the opportunity to prove he’s not the bad guy she believes him to be. Together they unmask an underworld of evil. But their lives change in unimaginable ways the moment she goes missing.
