My Review:
One Urge, One Plea, Keep Me Trilogy Set by Scarlet WolfeMy rating: 3.5 of 5 stars
Alayna and Damon meet in the wedding party of friends getting married. Alayna is a romance author who has been living alone for two years after the end of of a long and unsatisfying relationship. Damon is an erotica author and owner of a large publishing company. He has no interest in relationships, and has some specific sexual desires that are out of the comfort zone of many women. Damon rescues Alayna from being stranded at the airport for days, and instead uses those days to seduce her and explore their intense physical attraction. It is clear that Alayna wants more from the relationship than the amazing sex they have, but Damon doesn't believe himself capable of anything more. Even as they attempt to move forward, issues from Damon's past threaten to harm both Damon and Alayna and destroy any future they might have together.
I would definitely recommend getting this series as a bundle since it would be very challenging to finish one without having the next readily available. Damon and Alayna have some seriously hot physical chemistry and as it turns out, they have very complimentary kinks. I love that Alayna is straight forward about what she wants and the fact that she is someone who will get emotionally involved. It was tough at times to watch Damon struggle with his own emotions as he experienced new feelings and considered different possibilities for himself. There are some common themes between this trilogy and others in the genre, but these characters felt unique and there were enough differences in the story lines to keep it from feeling stale. I read straight through the trilogy once I started, and would recommend this set. I would also read more by this author in the future.

In the first novella to the One Urge, One Plea, Keep Me Trilogy, romance author, Alayna Wynn, is anxious over being a bridesmaid in her best friend’s wedding. She’s also cynical, having sworn off men two years prior when the only relationship she had ever known ended abruptly.

She’s surprised to learn he’s a famous writer of erotica and also the owner of one of the largest publishing companies in the world.

A secret buried in his past keeps him out of relationships and into behavior that is taboo to many, but he wants her and is willing to set his strict rules aside for one memorable night. After a failed attempt at propositioning Alayna, he’s determined they’ll at least share one heated kiss until they meet again, and he doesn’t hesitate to assure her they will.
Three months later, Damon gets his opportunity to seduce her when he rescues Alayna, keeping her from being stranded in an airport for days.

Excerpt from One Urge: Damon's POV
I bring her head back down, and her eyes meet mine, displaying a mix of longing and fear.
“Don’t look away from me again, Alayna. It’s too late for you to wimp out now. It’s a shame you’re uncomfortable with me admiring your beautiful face.”
“That’s not it,” she says with a biting tone.
“What is it then?” I’m curious, surprised she spoke.
“I don’t want to admire yours. I don’t want to want you.”
“Why?” I clamp her wrists harder and push her head inches from mine.
“I’ll get attached, and you’ll leave me hurt.” Her breath whispers across my lips, leaving me unable to resist kissing her again. This time it’s controlled and slow, our tongues exploring, tasting, and getting acquainted in a profound way before I pull her back again.
“You’ll be stronger, Alayna, having explored the part of you that you’ve been afraid to know. You’ll beg me not to stop, and when leaving here, you’ll believe you’re the gorgeous, sensual being I see in front of me.”

Meet the Cast
Excerpt from One Plea: Alayna's POV
After he calms, he pulls my wrists down between our chests and unhooks the belt. Throwing it to the floor, he collapses onto me. My arms instinctually wrap around his back, and he lets them.
“How you respond to me, Alayna, drives me wild.” His face nuzzles between my neck and hair, and I’m surprised when he relaxes, giving me the time to bask in the feel of his solid wall of strength and most importantly, the intimate moment we’re sharing.
“I’m taking you to dinner, and I want you to wear your black dress. I didn’t get to remove it last night.”
“I can’t; it needs laundered.”
Damon lifts his head to look at me.
“I had Margaret take care of having it cleaned while you were out today.”
“Um, OK. I appreciate the gesture, but do I have no privacy where you’re concerned?”
His face goes back into my hair. “Have I told you how good you smell?” he asks in a muffled sound.
I begin to giggle and feel him smile against my neck as he aims to distract me. How will I ever have a say with this man?

Excerpt from Keep Me: Alayna's POV
Fidgeting, I push my grey sweater dress farther down my thighs. I have it paired with black knee high boots. Damon takes hold of my hand and squeezes.
“There’s no reason to be nervous. George and Renee are laid back. They’ll love you.”
Peering up at him, I give a faint smile.
“If anyone should be nervous it’s me. George sees me daily and has probably been logging embarrassing stories for this occasion.”
“Now, I’m eager to get there.”
He gazes at me pointedly, imparting a look that typically means I’m close to receiving a punishment. Leaning over, he plants a kiss to my neck before moving his mouth to my ear.
“Along with hair pulling, laughing at my expense leads to biting, Alayna.”
“In that case, you better get ready to hear a loud chuckle,” I say with a giggle.
Damon swiftly unbuckles before his left hand is groping my breast, and his right slides under the hem of my dress. Thankfully, he has the partition closed.
“When will you learn?” He begins lightly grazing his fingers up and down my panties, drawing moisture straight to them. My breathing becomes quick and shallow, and my hands ball into fists on each side of me.
Fingers slip inside the material and push into me, moving forward and back as he kneads my breast. I’m desperately trying to be quiet, but Damon’s touch makes it difficult.
His mouth teases my ear, nibbling and licking along the lobe. Oh, shit. I can’t come right now, but it’s building quickly.
“You’re so close. I feel it all over my fingers,” he whispers seductively.
Slumping down in the seat, I push against his hand, wanting more. I’m panting for air and close to climaxing. He leans up and looks at me, a smirk playing from his lips.
“Precious, you’re a little flushed. It’s a beautiful sight, but you’ll have to hold on to it. We’re here.”
Just like that, his fingers slip out of me and go straight into his mouth. He slowly pulls them out, his eyes dark and calculating.
“That might hold me over. If not, I’ll have to fuck you in their bathroom, and wouldn’t that be awkward for you?” The door opens, and he climbs out. I’m stunned, frozen to my seat. “Out, Alayna. I’m sure you don’t want to be late and give a bad first impression.”Series Trailer
