Description

ENTER THE GLAM WORLD of a crisis management agency specializing in celebrity scandal and political intrigue… (Book 1 of 2)

Sex. Politics. Scandal.

When a shadowy group intent on stealing the U.S. presidential election targets a leading candidate’s daughter, jaded professional fixer Nolan Jackson is hired to safely escort her across the country to a star-studded Election Eve event. There's only one problem: She’s ditched the campaign and disappeared… A southern gentleman who likes fast cars, deadly weapons and total control, Nolan is used to winning at all costs. Except in love. Yet, he’ll soon find himself irresistibly drawn to the candidate’s beautiful, naïve daughter.

Sheltered heiress Lola Randall has always played it safe. Now she’s gone rogue. After escaping the media spotlight and her overbearing parents, the last thing she needs in her life is an alpha male. But when Nolan shows her how good it can feel to relinquish control, she begins to secretly crave his domination. Now, she must choose between her independence and falling in love. Because Nolan is determined to win her heart and nail the bad guys before the opposition finds a way to steal the White House.

Erotic romantic suspense series for mature audiences. If you like a bossy, possessive Dominant alpha male with twitchy palms and a closet full of sex toys...read this book! BDSM themes and depiction of a 24/7 Dominant/submissive relationship.

PUBLISHER’S NOTE: This is Book 1 in a steamy, suspenseful 2-book story. Book 1 ends in a scandalous cliffhanger, Book 2 delivers the HEA. Both books will release September 13 and are available on Netgalley now!

Advance Praise

“Watch out for this author! Sweden Reese comes storming onto the scene with The Southern Gentlemen. This 2 book series that is one wild, romantic thrill ride, with a sexy, protective alpha and a heroine who probably needs to be saved from herself. The chemistry between Nolan and Lola is off the charts! Jump aboard for the wild ride and prepare to strap on your parachute!”

—Que Sara Sera Book Blog

“I read this duet in one breath. I absolutely couldn’t put it down…It’s a rollercoaster ride until the very end. Why? You can find everything from tension and betrayal, dominance and submission to love and feelings so deeply seated that you couldn't believe these could even exist…And you know the feeling when you have to put the book down because you love your family and you have to do something together? Right at that moment I wanted to cry because I just wanted to know what happened next.”

—R. Hollmuller

“Ms. Reese has created a love story for all time in this life changing novel brilliantly crafted with both types of readers—the average romance reader and the seasoned player—in mind. The story strikes at the chord of what exists between the two in a Power Exchange. The very real need of a Dominant to protect and cherish and the very real strength of a submissive to release control.”

—Lives and Loves of a Book Nerd

“I haven't quite read an erotic romance like this that had so much suspense and sizzling, erotic chemistry…A breathtaking, exciting romance that has some very delicious BDSM…From incredible heart-thumping suspense, to the most wowing eroticism, to the sweet sweet romance, this book does NOT leave you disappointed. It will have you needing to do a reread to capture all that you felt all over again because it was THAT mouthwatering good!”

—Marie’s Tempting Reads

“You know how you see a book that has a ton of good reviews and you think to yourself, ‘It can't really be that good, can it?’ Well, I can unequivocally say this book was amazing and worth 5 stars…I would rank Sweden Reese right up there with romantic suspense authors Sylvia Day & Maya Banks.”

—J. Hollar

“Is it getting hot in here, or is it just me? I feel like this was my personal mantra the entire time I read The Southern Gentleman…There wasn’t a minute I was able to put this book down. Pretty certain I stayed locked up in my room the entire time. This is one book you do not want disruptions for. The thrill, the sexiness, the characters themselves, it was all just a wonderful read that I just didn’t want to end. Both Protective Instinct and True Consequences are easily my top favourite reads right now.”

—Fictional Sunday

“The Southern Gentleman books are a must read!! Every single thing about these novels had me on the edge of my seat, tapping my screen, dying to figure out what was going to happen next…Nolan and Lola have the perfect connection. They have the tension and steam between them, however, their connection also runs much deeper.”

Bullets, blindfolds, bondage, bad boys in business suits... This sexy, suspenseful story kicks off the Dominant Heroes Collection, a glam new romantic suspense series about sex, politics and scandal. These are the debut novels of Sweden Reese, who writes sexy books for smart readers from her home in Washington, D.C.
