Night With a Dom

By Casea Major

Melody Manning’s workaholic ambition, coupled with a slave-driving former boss, has made her the youngest market analyst in her firm. It’s also killed her personal life, including losing her fiancé. When she receives a message from him on New Year’s Eve announcing his engagement to another woman, Mel loses it. Her new, more compassionate boss has the perfect solution for her—get laid. Good and laid.

At his suggestion, she signs up with the 1Night Stand service, listing her deepest sexual desires on the application. A speedy response from Madame Eve has Melody on her way to Sonoma Valley wine country and a one-night stand with a mysterious Dom.

The sexy, masked Master promises to get to the bottom of her guilt and provide ultimate satisfaction under the safety of his stern hand. After an emotional night of submission and uninhibited passion, will her lover’s unmasking lead to the end of their encounter or give Mel another chance at love?

~DEDICATION~

Much love to my critique partners. Many of whom are also my best friends. Thank you, ladies for your encouragement, insight and general camaraderie in an otherwise lonely task.

Chapter One

Melody Manning’s fingers flew over her keyboard. She hustled in a concentrated effort to finish the end of the quarter analysis and get the hell out of there.

Her boss, Adam, ducked his head in her door. Mel, I need you in my office in five with the Imperial numbers.

The Imperial numbers? She’d finished that account with her former boss before he’d left the firm. It had been their special project, and one of the most profitable in company history.

Jeez. Didn’t Adam know it was one in the afternoon on New Year’s Eve and everyone else had left for the day? A pang of loss shot through her chest. Maybe he knew she had nowhere special to go. Her shoulders sagged, and her chin dropped to her chest. No time to wallow, Mel. Get the man his numbers.

As his footsteps receded, she rolled her eyes and muttered under her breath, "Who does he think he is? Nick Palmer, slave driver extraordinaire?"

In truth, her new boss, Adam Rodgers, conducted business in no way like the previous one. Unless a big campaign was coming out and he needed additional market analysis, Adam encouraged her to have a life away from the firm. He not only allowed her to leave the office at a reasonable hour, he expected her to. She snorted at the cruel irony.

In the last six months, she’d had all the personal time she could have wanted. Too bad it had come a few weeks too late. She gulped down the guilt while she pulled up the Imperial Oats file.

Her instant message flashed, and her pulse quickened. Only one person used IM with her. Pushing aside the urge to open it, she printed the report then stared at the screen. Why should she be scared? Taking a breath, she checked the message. JRivers. A lump formed in her throat. Why would he be instant messaging her on New Year’s Eve?

Hey, Mel, just wanted to tell you before you found out from friends that I’m getting married. I figured you’d be working and get this message. Ann and I are announcing our engagement tonight at
