By Erika Masten

From Bestselling Erotica Author Erika Masten
The First Title In A New 8-Part Erotic Romance Serial

At His Whim: His #1 (A Billionaire Domination Serial)

Chloe Bloom is running away from a life’s worth of unfaithful men, the most recent being society scion Penn Ellison. The South American cruise is supposed to be her chance to forget her problems in exotic locales and the arms of gorgeous strangers, if only her heart and libido would cooperate.

Adrian Knight lets people think he’s the manager of the luxury resort on the private Brazilian island of Ilha de Flor when in truth he’s the owner, a perfectly poised example of the kind of rake you get with a few generations of ridiculous wealth. Sex is a transaction for him, until Chloe Bloom walks out of the arms of Knight’s lifelong rival and into his resort.

With Chloe looking to explore this particularly male concept of lust without love, and Adrian unable to resist his competitive urge to claim what his rival lost, it’s a matter of time before she is on her knees and at his whim.

I'm the girl next door with an unexpected wicked streak (and an addiction to sexy high heels). I love turning forbidden desires and secret fantasies into erotic tales with literary flare and a dirty mouth. Let me tell you a naughty story...

AT HIS WHIM: HIS #1

When I was a little girl, I spent countless hours sitting with my narrow back pressed to the side of the battered upright piano against the living room wall while my mother played. She coaxed thunderously emotional and sometimes heartrending music out of an instrument of such inferior quality that it never should have withstood the demand—yet it had.

Years later, when I was old enough to understand how improbable it was to have that music pouring out of that piano, I asked my mother about it.

Ah, Chloeblossom, she would say, always ending her sigh with a warm smile from behind wayward strands of mahogany hair, adding a hug or at least a squeeze of my shoulder. It was her pet name for me, a play on my full name, Chloe Bloom. "Never worry about how things should work. Go with your heart. It’s a force of nature, too."

That was the philosophy that had guided her life, and ruined it. I asked my question—and she answered it the same way—many more times. While the words never changed, the underlying meaning did. Sometimes I wasn’t asking about an old piano so much as why I didn’t have the things my friends had, the toys and clothes and a father at their birthday parties. Sometimes I was asking why we lived in a shabby, dark apartment when the photographs of my mother as a child had sweeping marble staircases and landmarks like Big Ben and The Eiffel Tower in the background. Sometimes I was asking why she stayed married to a man who came and went, loved her then didn’t, on his whim.

As an adult, I was not a woman of flights and fancies, and I had the money, success, and seventy-hour work week at an environmental law firm to prove it. I didn’t go with my gut or make decisions based on the intangibles of intuition. Booking a last-minute cruise from Buenos Aires up along the Atlantic Coast of South America to the mouth of the Amazon was uncharacteristically spontaneous of me but not romantic or carefree in the least. I needed to get out of the city, away from the gossip columns and especially from Penn Ellison. The measure was extreme but still practical at its heart.

So I stood now among well-heeled tourists at the palatial entrance of the resort on Ilha de Flor off the coast of northeastern Brazil, the lulling roar of the ocean at my back and blessedly cool trade winds playing at the loose brown waves of my hair and the hem of my pink floral silk sundress, and struggled with another question that beggared logic.

How did I know that a certain Mr. Adrian Knight, presenting himself to us as the manager of the resort, was not what he appeared? And, furthermore, why was everything inside me bristling with stomach-twisting anxiety and panty-soaking desire
