About the book
Ash, Jace, and Gabe: three of the wealthiest, most powerful men in the country. They are accustomed to getting anything they want. Anything at all. For 38 year old Ash, it is the woman who changes everything he has ever known about dominance and desire. When it comes to sex, Ash McIntyre has always explored his wilder side. Extreme and uncompromising, he demands control. And he prefers women who want it like that. Even the women he has shared with his best friend, Jace. But Jace is involved with a woman he has no intention of sharing. And now even Gabe has settled into a relationship with a woman who gives him everything he needs, leaving Ash feeling restless and unfulfilled. Then Ash meets 28 year old Josie, who seems immune to his charms and his wealth. Intrigued, he begins a relentless pursuit, determined she won't be the one who got away. He never imagined the one woman to tell him no would be the only woman who had ever driven him to the edge of desire.
