Excerpt from A is for Aftercare
“You’re struggling to write?” he asks.
He picks up a glass of water and drinks from it. Captivated, I admire the way his full lips curve around the rim.
“Aye.”
“It’s the book that’s due in a month?”
“Aye.” I groan. “I’ll manage it.”
“How much have you written?”
I shrug. “Not enough. I’m just not feeling the words. I’m sick of Orion. I’d put a bullet through his head if my publisher let me.” I have no clue why I’m telling him any of this.
“If it helps, I really like Orion.”
I snort. “I’m paying you to be my PA, not kiss my arse.” Not that I have any reason to disbelieve his love of my character. On the other hand, I wouldn’t be averse to his lips being pressed against that part of my body—or anywhere else for that matter. I stuff some of the avocado toast into my mouth. It tastes a bit too good.
“I’m not.” The blush across his cheeks deepens to scarlet. “I’m being honest. I know he’s a bit surly, but he’s got a kind heart, really.”
I huff. “He’s a crotchety arsehole.”
Archie laughs. The sound reverberates through my body, almost making me want to laugh along with him. Part of the reason I hate Orion is that he’s too much like me.
“But I’m stuck with him for this book and another one. At least.”
“At least?”
“My contract runs out after that, but knowing my publisher, I’m sure they’ll try to sweet talk me into signing up to write another three books about the grumpy fucker.”
Archie smothers another laugh behind his hand.
“What?” I demand.
“You don’t strike me as the kind of man who does anything he doesn’t want to.”
I narrow my eyes. What else does he think he’s figured out about me?
“I’m not, but this is different.”
Archie tilts his head. “How?”
I open and close my mouth a couple of times, which probably makes me look like a fish drowning in air. “My publisher calls the shots,” I say eventually. Self-publishing under a pen name gives me the creative freedom I crave. Not that I’m going to mention that to my sexy PA.
“Surely they’ll understand if you tell them you’ve run out of steam? Especially if you pitch them a fantastic new idea.”
I shake my head.
“I’ve read all your books, sir. You’ve written so many amazing characters. I’m sure you could come up with a concept that would blow Orion King out of the water.”
I stare at the food on my plate.
“If you could write anything, what would it be?”
Aside from hot, passionate, if unrealistic stories of men falling in love? “I don’t know.”
“You should think about it,” Archie says as if it’s as easy as calling lightning from the sky. “But right now, you need to find a way to fall back in love with Orion enough to finish this book and write another.”
“I know,” I grumble.
“Is there anything I can do to help the words flow?” Archie asks.
I jerk my head back. “What?”
That’s not even remotely part of his job description. Then again, it’s only halfway through his first day, and he’s already made more of a positive impact on me than any of his predecessors.
“Can I help?”
Be Lee Lawson’s muse. Lie naked on my bed while I write about how glorious you are.
If a kinky boss/employee romance is what you’re looking for this is just the book for you.
Archie is looking for a job as a personal assistant and as fate would have it, his favorite author Hamish Cameron is in need of one. Archie can’t believe his luck, he’s been a huge fan of Hamish since his first book, but the man is as prickly as they come.
Hamish is trying to fight his attraction to his new PA, but with a new book deadline breathing down his neck he doesn’t have time for a distraction like Archie, The longer Archie stays the harder it becomes to fight it, but the words are coming quicker, almost as if Archie is his muse.
Hamish holds monthly kink parties at his house for his friends. With a little intervention from Hamish’s friends Archie and his brothers score an invite, only Archie doesn’t know it’s Hamish’s party he’s been invited to.
Once Hamish finds out that his kink isn’t going to send Archie running, all bets are off. Hamish is ready to push his fears to the side and see if this attraction burns hot enough for more than just one scene. They have to keep a delicate work/life balance while trying to navigate a new relationship and Archie’s responsibilities at home.
This is a new author to me and I have to say I’m hooked. The story was fun and entertaining while also being smoking hot.
The main character Archie has two brothers who are a large part of the story, I can’t wait to see where the author takes them. The characters that have been developed are relatable and interesting, while they are triplets they each have their own personality and backstory.
The relationship between Archie and Hamish develops almost effortlessly and was so much fun to read.

I am enjoying this series so much, but I have to say Blake has stolen my heart. The depth of his character is amazing. He’s a gorgeous, confident model with a huge heart, a ton of emotional baggage and family responsibilities.
While working as a model, Blake meets photographer Calvin for a lingerie shoot. Calvin immediately knows Blake would be a perfect model for his best friend Gabe’s shibari photos. After talking for a bit both Calvin and Gabe invite Blake to kink party over the weekend, Blake not knowing that this friend is his brother Archie’s boss.
After a big misunderstanding about why Blake was invited to the party and a little bit of groveling the sparks fly. Blake knows he wants them both, but both Calvin and Gabe are Doms and they’ve never played together.
Gabe and Calvin both know they want Blake, but Blake has made it clear the only way he sees going forward is with all three of them together. Gabe and Calvin will need to decide whether their friendship can withstand this huge change and if they are willing to take the risk.
Blake is trying to convince both men that forward together is the best way while at the same time trying to manage his family responsibilities. He will have to unpack some emotional baggage and hope his men can stand with him through it all.
I loved this book! I loved Blake! He has such emotion. His character just came alive for me and leapt right off the page. I have never felt a character more real than him. Excellent writing.
The shibari scenes were hot, but the building of their relationship was the best part for me. It was honest and real, messy and loving.
I can’t wait to see what the author has in store for Corey. This is the most excited I have been for a book series in a long time.
