About this listen

"I like you collared, baby. I like you naked, I like you mine."

Ellie Stevens has lusted over Kayne Roberts since he first walked into the import/export company she works for a little over a year ago. As Expo's most important client, Ellie has always kept a safe distance from the man with the majestic blue eyes - until temptation finally gets the better of her. Impulsively, Ellie invites Kayne to one of Expo's infamous company parties her flamboyant boss is notorious for throwing. Unbeknownst to Ellie, the god in the Armani suit isn't just the suave entrepreneur he portrays himself to be. Underneath the professional exterior is a man with a secret life, dark desires, and nefarious contacts.

In a hidden corner of a trendy New York City lounge, the spark kindling between the two of them ignites. Unable to resist the sinful attraction, Ellie agrees to leave with Kayne, believing she is finally bedding the man of her dreams. Little does she know when she walks out the door, she's about to be Owned.

Content warning: Owned is a dark erotic romance. Please pay close attention to the use of the words dark, erotic, and romance. It has intense sexual situations, a Master/slave relationship, mild abuse, and some violence. Listener discretion is advised.

Intense

Wow, that was incredibly intense! I was on the edge of my seat the whole time, feeling a range of emotions.

I really disliked Kayne. You do get some understanding at the end, but it wasn’t enough to satisfy me so on to book 2 I went. I’m glad I did.

A word of caution: make sure to read the trigger warnings beforehand!

Despite the unsettling nature of the plot, if you can accept it as fiction and are prepared for the dark romance with its trigger warnings, it's undeniably a well-written, captivating story. M Never's storytelling is powerful, and the narrators' performances are phenomenal. The emotional depth they bring to the delivery is truly remarkable.

I don’t usually feel the need to read trigger warnings, but given how intense this book was, I just wish I had a heads up, or had a better understanding of Kayne earlier on.

Nonetheless, the intensity of the ride adds to the gripping nature of this very dark and twisted tale.

Couldn’t even go past Chapter 8

I must say the story line and events within this book are uncomfortable. Not worth a token/credit so I asked for a refund
