Ryan
Lawson has almost everything he wants. A Capo to the Valenti Family

his signature smirk. All but one, anyway, and she happens to be the only
one he wants.
On
the run from a horrible past, Trixie finds herself accepting a job as an exotic

the Boss’ son while lusting after someone else.
Everything
changes when Ryan is offered a chance to win a weekend with the woman he
desires. All he has to do is roll the dice. The rest is up to fate.
What
will happen when their worlds collide? Will a mutual attraction turn into
something more? Or will the dangers they face be enough to keep them apart for
good?
I love B.L. Wilde. I’ll read anything that has her name on it. The collaboration between these two authors is wonderful. I loved everything about this book, except for the fact it was too short. Honestly that was the only issue that I had with this book. Owned was stunning and sexy, and I want more.
While I’m still upset about the length of the novel, while being short – this novel packs some serious punches. The main characters are beautiful yet troubled. With this novel you don’t have to worry about overcoming obstacles, and feeling your heart get ripped out. I thoroughly enjoyed the nice escape that I got from reading this.
The characters of Siena and Ryan were flawed but seriously perfect for one another. Siena had people call her Trixie so that they wouldn’t get to know the real her. I can’t blame her, being an exotic dancer and all. While I loved the thought of Siena(Trixie) and Ryan together, unfortunately it wasn’t meant to be. Or was it?! (PLEASE SAY YES!) The fact that she had Ryan call her by her real name, because she wanted to be herself with him… swoon.
The sexiness of this novel is off the charts. If only I could get my hands on a Ryan for myself… Yum. He’s that much of a distraction. That’s how you know a character is perfection! It’s only a character in a book, but he’s so perfect that you just can’t stop thinking about how you wish he were real. Again, the collaboration of B. and Jo is a marvelous read. I honestly can’t wait for the next installment of this to come out. I need it, bad. Definitely grab a copy of this, cause while it’s short and you can finish it quickly – it’s phenomenal. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a quick intoxicatingly sexy read. I’d have to say that I’d give this a 17+ disclaimer… cause it get’s HOT!
Congratulations ladies, this book is FANTASTIC! I was definitely Owned by it. Yeah yeah, lame pun intended.
I took my place
right by the pole, and even though the room was nearly pitch black, I could
feel several people watching me. When the music started and the lights came on
over the stage, I placed one hand on the pole and circled it, making eye contact
with as many of the men in the front as I could. I made it all the way around
and then bucked my hips into the cold metal, sliding up and down a few times
before spinning around it again.
I had a few tricks
in my arsenal, but I wanted to save those for a little later on in the song.
Still gripping the pole, I walked halfway around so my back was to the crowd.
There were loud catcalls and wolf whistles when I started shaking my hips to
the beat of the music. They got even louder as I hooked my left leg around the
pole and spun in quick circles until my ass was on the ground and the pole was
between my legs. Using my hands as leverage, I planted my feet and lifted my
hips, thrusting against the shiny object seductively.
Men from the tables
in the back of the room rose from their seats and were closing in on the stage
area. Figuring it was now or never, I got to my feet and shimmied around again.
Facing away from the audience, I placed my hands high on the pole and jumped
up, straddling it and squeezing my thighs together to hold me in place. Arching
my back, I released my hands and used my stomach muscles to support me as I
flashed some cleavage at the patrons. After a few seconds of holding the
position and nearly falling out of my top, I straightened up and slid my way
down the pole, shaking my ass and earning more whistles.
When I spun around,
my eyes met with Ryan’s for a brief moment. I couldn’t help but smirk at him
and toss my hair over my shoulder as I continued to dance. Was it possible that
god-like creature wanted me? The mere thought of it turned me on more than
anything ever had.
I made a full
circle on the pole when I saw him waving a hundred dollar bill around, trying
to get me to come over. Feeling overly confident and wanting to fuck with him a
bit, I sauntered over and shimmied my hips just inches from his face. His eyes
were locked on my covered pussy, and I could have sworn I saw him lick his
lips. An image of him between my legs flashed through my mind, and I felt
myself getting damp with arousal. Shaking my head slightly to clear it, I
continued with my dance.
Every time Ryan
reached up with the money, I backed away so he couldn’t touch me. He wasn’t
supposed to touch me anyway. At least…I didn’t think he was. None of the
customers were ever allowed to touch the dancers according to what I’d been
told. Carlo had said that Ryan ran the club, though, so I wondered if that
meant he was an exception and could do what he wanted. That thought both
thrilled and terrified me.
Still, I shook my
head with a smirk on my face and sunk down to my hands and knees. His eyes were
focused on my tits, which were nearly bursting out of my bikini top as I began
to make my way toward him, so without him even noticing, I pulled the money
from his hand with my teeth.
“Thanks,” I winked
as I rose to my feet and headed back to the pole to finish the song. I could
feel his eyes boring into me until the lights went out and I collected my tips.
