Perfectly Inappropriate by Stacey Kennedy

A woman scorned and a politician with a wild side connect online—and explore their hottest fantasies in the flesh.

Olivia Watts knows that her problems are painfully average. She got engaged, and her fiancé cheated. She gave up on her dream job—street photographer—and settled on a more practical one: graphic designer. She scrimped and saved to buy a home, only to realize how empty it was. So when Olivia hears about an exclusive dating app that matches subs with highly trained doms, she does something she never thought she’d do in a million years: She signs up. The last thing she expects to find is a man whose sizzling touch reawakens the woman she used to be...

Noah Grant has no time for relationships. His sole purpose is to win reelection. That’s why he pays a premium to the discreet app that satisfies all his dark desires. But after sweet, innocent Olivia is vetted and arrives for their week together in his penthouse, it’s blatantly clear that she’s running from her demons. Noah’s more than willing to be her escape—until their emotions get tangled up in their games. Now, to become worthy of Olivia’s heart, Noah will have to prove that he’s more than a fantasy.

Olivia is trying to recover from a bad breakup. Her best friend, Paige, is hilarious and a troublemaker for Olivia. She signed Olivia up for a dating site where Olivia could meet a dom for a few dates. Olivia has always been predictable and now, with the help of her best friend, she wants something unpredictable.

Noah is a public figure. He knows that his job comes first. But he is also a dom and he likes this new app that allows him to vet and meet subs to play with. When he first meets Olivia, he is immediately intrigued by her. She is a mess of contradictions.

The two characters have amazing chemistry. Noah is dominant without being domineering. He knows just which buttons to push with Olivia and when. Olivia responds well to Noah's brand of domination. While there wasn't a ton of BDSM in this story, the power exchange was steamy.

I really enjoyed this story and loved how the characters fought for each other. They knew they had something worth fighting for and wouldn't let anything stand in their way.

What do you do when catch your future husband cheating with your maid of honor before the wedding? For Olivia, she wants something that will bring back her self-worth. And she feels that giving in to her kinky side will do that. While out with her best friend Paige, she accepts a card from a stranger to join an app to get to meet other like-minded people. Maybe this will get her over the heartbreak and move her forward in the life she deserves.

Noah Grant is not the type of man for relationships, he is only looking to keep his career on track. Being part of the app that lets him explore is desire for BDSM without the strings of attachment works well for him. So when he meets Olivia, he knows there is something different about her and he wants to change his rules for her. When he learns of the betrayal she has gone through, he wants to protect her and make her happy.

Can Noah and Olivia spend their short time together without bringing feelings into the mix? Can Noah let her go when the time comes? Will Olivia be able to move on without Noah? Will her ex show up and cause more problems?

I love Stacey Kennedy and her writing style is always one I love to read. She has a way of drawing you into a story and not letting you go until the end. I loved everything about Noah and Olivia and I hope you love it too.

I really enjoyed meeting Noah and Olivia, and watching their chemistry rule their heads and their hearts. It was clear from the beginning that rules were made to be broken in this story. Add in the fabulous Paige as Olivia’s best friend and the skeptical Jared as Noah’s security detail, and the stage is set.

It was a fun way to introduce the BDSM idea via her interest gained from books, and her innocence, yet superficial knowledge was dealt with well by Noah. I obviously wanted them to work out that a week was far too short a time for what was clearly a romance in the making, and so had a big smile on my face by the end.
