Innocent Kindle Edition

by Ashe Barker (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars 53 ratings
First Impressions can be deceptive.

Aidan Blake needs a plumber. Fast. His boiler is dead, his creaky old house crumbling around him. When his elderly neighbour recommends a local trader, George Mahon, Aidan jumps at the prospect of hot water and warm radiators.

But George, short for Georgina, is not exactly what he had in mind. He was expecting something else entirely. A man for one thing, not the gorgeous single mother he finds in his house at the end of a long day.

Aidan turns out to be full of surprises too. Who would have imagined the smartly dressed businessman would have a BDSM playroom in his attic and a collection of whips and canes that makes George’s head spin. And her bottom clench, though that’s another matter entirely. Maybe she is not quite as innocent as she thought.

What does a girl have to do to get to play with those toys?

Just ask, it would seem. As they enter into a professional and personal agreement which soon blossoms into a sultry, kinky relationship, George continues to be surprised by Aidan's kindness and generosity, not to mention his skill with a spanking paddle.

First impressions aside, the two begin to build something together. And while they peel back the layers to discover their hidden depths, the old house yields up the mysteries of its own secret past. They soon realise that at first glance, nothing and no one is as innocent as they seem.

This book was previously published under the title First Impressions, with different cover art

USA Today best selling author Ashe Barker is multi-published and regularly hits the Amazon best seller lists in erotic romance, BDSM and historical. She has been an avid reader of fiction for many years, erotic and other genres. Ashe still loves reading, the hotter the better. But now she has a good excuse for her guilty pleasure - research.

Ashe tends to draw on her own experience to lend colour, detail and realism to her plots and characters. An incident here, a chance remark there, a bizarre event or quirky character, any of these can spark a story idea.

Ashe lives in the wilds of West Yorkshire where she enjoys drinking Earl Grey tea, walking the Bronte moors and listening to Bon Jovi - loud.

Ashe has over eighty titles on general release, with publishers on both sides of the Atlantic, and several more in the pipeline. Most of her books feature BDSM. She writes explicit stories, always hot, but they offer far more than just sizzling sex. Ashe likes to read about complex characters, and compelling plots, so that's what she writes too. Strong, demanding Doms are a given, often paired with new submissives who have a lot to learn.

Ashe has a pile of story ideas still to work through, and keeps thinking of new ones at the most unlikely moments, so you can expect to see a lot more from her.

    Please note this is a re-release so you may have previously read it. Aidan is in need of a plumber and George is recommend to him. Little did he know that it was short for Georgina. When she discovers his playroom, they discover they have kink in common and enter into a contract. Will it become more? Fast-paced read with great characters, lots of depth and great twists and turns. I liked it.

    Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2020
    I liked this story; although the prologue described a miscarriage which I found distressing, Aidan, George, Lily and Polly’s story was worth the read. Aidan had some emotional depth which I like in a male character and George was strong and courageous. The epilogue was a nice little topping on the cake. I happily and voluntarily reviewed this book.

    Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2020
    This story will have you on the end of your seat it is such a fast paced and full of action read that you will love every single moment of this book which was a spell binding read that completely held my attention from start to finish.
    Tempting read with plenty of action and adventure with plenty of quirks and death defying acts that will hold your attention from start to finish, as you read the book you will see as the attraction between the two main characters begin to develop and their emotions begin growing and you are most assuredly drawn in by this wonderful writer.
    Highly recommend this read, I know that you will be totally blown away with these wonderfully written characters and a simply marvellous plot.
    I voluntarily received and review an Advanced Reader Copy
    I thoroughly enjoyed the book and look forward to reading any future publications; keep up all the great writing.

    I really liked the progression of the main story and the sub-plot twisted within was interesting. The main story was a gentle intro to BDSM for a new sub. Pretty hot!

    Good story. Interesting plot. Well written.
    However, I know I've read it before. I dislike when authors re-release a book and do not disclose that information in the write up. It may have changed some but, I could have purchased a new book by the same author. Will second guess all of this author's books now as being "New"

    OMG do these men really exist? If they do where are they? Yet another fantastic story from Ashe, but these story really are fantasy, so saying they are so readable. I have never read a book from this author that wasn't fantastic. The trouble is everything else gets left when I start reading. Cannot recommend this author highly enough.
