Chessie is your everyday next door kind of girl. Nick is her boss and what has been the focus of her desires and a main character in her dreams. These characters were okay. The scenes were hot. I just wanted him to give away a little more than what he did in this story. Chessie feels like it is a one way attraction when it comes to her feelings toward Nick. There should have been a little more of the story on both sides. Just a little rushed for me. Still a fast read and Not too bad.

I received this ARC from the publisher via Net Galley for my honest review. Thank you Net Galley!

This is the first book in this series by this author. This is the first book by this author that I've read. I just couldn't put this book down till I'd finished it. The chemistry between the characters is fab, it simmers nicely throughout the book. This is a fast paced steamy read, which will not take you long to read. This is a fantastic read and I can't wait to read more in this series.
Highly recommended
I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.

Chess is the administrative assistant to a millionaire. She has worked for him for three years and been infatuated with him just as long. She thinks he doesn’t know she exists. Nick is owner of an investment company and has just sold it to his friend. Now he can finally act on his feelings toward Chess. She is surprised and delighted to be going out with him. She is really surprised when he takes her to a BDSM club. She finds that she enjoys that lifestyle and will do anything for Nick. And Nick plans on giving her his heart and the world.
Sexy story. A handsome, rich man falls for a beautiful, insecure woman. A little BDSM. Some spanking and sex.

This was a very sexy, fun, entertaining read that made me not want to put it down until I finished it. The story follows two people that have been fighting their attraction for several years, after things change and they are able to get together things just start to get very interesting. Nick is the boss of Chessie and even though he has been attracted to Chessie from the beginning he has had to fight it, now he has a chance to go after everything he has ever wanted and nothing will stand in his way. Thank you NetGalley and Jaymie Holland for allowing me to read this book and write a honest review.

I liked the characters in this romance. It was a believable romance.

Firstly, I'd like to say I totally love the book cover. It absolutely goes with the book's theme.
In Shameless Surrender, Chessie works for Nick and is completely convinced that didn't even know she exists (her words; not mine). So, when she received an anonymous letter with a single word "TONIGHT" written on it. She was nervous, doubtful and a little bit intrigued as for the identity of the secret stranger, even though her friends (who I love by the way) were sure it was our hero but she didn't believe them as usual. After all searching, it was found out that Nick was responsible for that letter and later for a dinner, dance and a lot of other kinky things.
I really appreciate a hero with common sense to know what he wants and actually takes it.
So, in short words I like Nick and Chessie's relationship. They actually grow in their relationship because they first get to know each other professionally and then, intimately ( something they accomplish greatly). The side characters were great and I love Holland's writing it flowed effortlessly. I'd like to recommend it to all those who love to read about a hero who's clear in his mind about his desires or others, to just give it a try. I'd surely like to read it again after sometime.

I really liked this fast-paced steamy read. Chessie has had a crush on her boss for years and now he is selling the company and will be out of her life forever. Or will he? Chessie and Nick have great chemistry and the story is fun and sexy. I was hooked from beginning to end. A good read.

Sexy, sensual, and intense sex scenes, with a sweet romance in between. I really enjoyed it, though the ending seemed a bit rushed to me.... butt that's just my opinion. Still a very enjoyable, steamy read.

'Shameless Surrender' by Jaymie Holland is the First Book in a New Series Called "Surrender". This is the story of Chessie Lane and Nick Tarantino.
Chessie has had a crush on Nick since about 4 weeks into her job three years ago. As his personal assistant she has close interactions with him but she is very quite and shy around him. But now he has sold the business and will be moving out of her life...or so she thinks.
Nick has been hot for Chessie since she started but wouldn't break the rules that you don't get involved with you employees. But know that has changed since he is no longer her boss and he plans to act on it.
This was an exciting easy read with a hot male who like a women's curves.

The book is amazing. When I started reading I couldn't put it down I read it in one day.Keep up the good work.This is the first time that I read Jaymie Hollands books,I have to read them all of the books.Chessie is plain and naïve about his world, nothing like the flawless cultured females he knows. Still, no other man has existed for Chessie since she met Nick. All her erotic fantasies revolve around this powerful man and his sexy, commanding voice. You should definitely read it.It's hot and passionet.

This was a very good story about waiting for love and finally achieving it.
It has erotic scenes and BDSM.
The author tells the tale of a man and a woman who finally get together and find love.
I recommend this story

A quick, hot boss BDSM novella with lots of spice! While more could be added to the story to make it complete, it is a perfect escape book for an afternoon.

Enjoyable Boss BDSM romance

Cheyenne McCray writing as Jaymie Holland presented the reader a feel good HEA BDSM romance.
Chessie and Nick have been attracted to one another for years, the chemistry between them simmering just below the surface. Selling his company Nick is ready to finally make Chessie his. Equal parts love and lust, the journey to HEA was very satisfying

I received an advance reader copy from NetGalley in exchange for a fair review.

2.5-3 stars. I went into this story after reading the blurb expecting one thing, but got something totally different. The writing itself was good, if a bit too over the top for my taste. I never did connect with the characters because their connection evidently began before the story began. It felt like we hurtled headlong into their relationship with no glue to hold them together. The whole plot felt rushed.

2.5 for the story. Wish I could've loved it.
