This is another book that has been on my kindle for so long, and I have finally decided to take the plunge and read it. His to Possess was a steamy read with interesting characters.
Title: His to Possess
Author: Opal Carew
Series: His to Possess #1-6
Genre: Erotic Contemporary Romance
Jessica’s life was in ruins…until she met him.
Standing in the rain feeling lost in a new city, with no job and no prospects, she’s about to give up. Until Dane Rainier pulls up in his limo and offers her a ride—and sweeps her into the life of her dreams. Now she has a high-powered job and is having the best sex of her life, exploring her submissive side under the masterful hand of a gorgeous billionaire.
But there’s a part of her that’s still holding back. Because the truth is, she’s never gotten over her ex-boyfriend Storm. A heavily muscled, motorcycle-riding rock musician, Storm couldn’t be any more different from Dane… and she just can’t get him out of her head.
Now Storm is about to reappear and turn her whole world upside down. Both Dane and Storm make her body burn to be possessed, but will her indecisive heart cost her the love of both men?

His to Possess was originally a serial and has now been combined into this one book. I haven’t read anything written by Opal Carew before, so I was excited to see what she would deliver with this book.
The story begins with Jessica pursuing a guy who resembles her ex, Dane, and immediately they have a connection. This was quite an amusing time for Jessica as she made a mistake and tries to cover it up. And then Dane offers her a lift to the convention… which was sweet! When they meet again the tension continues to build, and one thing leads to another… and you get the drift *wink*. Jessica gets a job in the end, and things get a little difficult for her, but the passion between Jessica and Dane never fizzles.
There was a twist in the story which I had figured out long before it happened and I was interested to see how things would work out for all of the characters. Dane is a dominant male, and I didn’t think he would handle it well. Jessica was able to explore a sexual side to her with Dane that she hadn’t attempted before, so I couldn’t see her going back to the ex. But Storm had her head all over the place and I could see why she was confused. When the three of them got together though, that was probably where I drew the line. Up until then I was enjoying the book, the decisions Jessica had to face about who she wanted and what would make her happy.
Opal has a writing style that draws you into her world and had me wanting to know more. For the most part I enjoyed the book; I liked the characters and who Jessica chose. But how the ending wrapped up, not so much. There are some lines that should not be crossed… not once but twice! Really? I don’t think that it would deter me from picking up more work written by Opal in the future though!

“And I want you,” he proclaimed. “I suggest we take the day off and spend it in my bedroom.”
“No, that’s not a good idea.” She summoned the strength of will to draw away from him a little, but he didn’t release her from his arms.
“I think it’s a great idea.” He smiled and kissed her, a light brush of lips this time. “But if you’d rather, I’ll take you out to dinner tonight. Candlelight and wine in an elegant restaurant. A stunning view of the city. Then back to my place.”
