I have been meaning to read this series for a while, and because Bookworm Brandee wanted me to, I dived into it.

Author: Vanessa Fewings
Series: Enthrall Sessions #1
Genre: Erotic Romance
Published: August 13th 2013
Mia Lauren is a single, twenty-one-year old working in a West Hollywood art store who dreams of one day becoming a fashion designer. When an unexpected offer arises to work at Enthrall, L.A.'s premier fetish club for the wealthy, Mia accepts. It's a salary beyond her wildest imagination.
Mia becomes the secretary to the club's assistant director, blond and broody Richard Booth. Richard is not only one of L.A.'s most beautiful and wealthiest men, he is also the club's senior dominant. Mia is both drawn and terrified when he reveals flashes of his white-hot passion, threatening an unbound pleasure like no other. She knows her attraction may be her undoing, but the spellbinding feelings render her powerless to resist his advances.
What Mia cannot know is that Enthrall's dashing director, thirty-year-old Cameron Cole, who is also the club's psychiatrist, has lured Mia to save his best friend and patient Richard from his obsession with thrill seeking. Cameron masterfully sets up sexy scenarios to ensure the collision of Richard and Mia, hoping that love will save him.
However, despite Cameron's noble intentions, he also finds himself enticed by Mia's haunting innocence. Passion and pleasure stir, forming a dangerous love triangle.
This is the world of the forbidden. This is the embrace of Enthrall.

I won a signed paperback of Enthrall Him, the third book in the Enthrall Sessions series last year, so when the first books were on sale I grabbed them… then decided to purchase the audio version to go with them, and I am so glad I did!! I really enjoyed the way that the narrator, Abra Neville, told Mia’s story. She has a way of keeping the listener hooked to the story and I found it really hard to stop the book because I just wanted to know what was going to happen to Mia!
The story was addictive too! Mia is twenty one, but she was so innocent, naïve and somehow was still a virgin. She’s a good girl and looks out for those who are close to her, especially her ill stepmother, Lauren. She takes a chance on a job at Enthrall, and somehow manages to land it. It wasn’t easy for her, because I could see how much she didn’t understand about the world she was now in, but she was a curious girl, willing to try new things and open minded to anything new.
I loved meeting everyone that she was working with too! All the girls were quick to take her in, and looked out for her. But it was the guys that got under her skin: Richard and Cameron! Richard is her boss: blonde, hot and dominating. He tries to push Mia away but Mia fights back and refuses to go away without a fight. Then there’s Cameron: dark hair, confident and dangerous. He can see past the walls that people put up to analyse what you are hiding. He pushes Mia and Richard together, but I could see him struggling with his feelings also.
I really did enjoy listening to this book, despite Mia being so out of her comfortzone. It wouldn’t be a job that she would’ve considered previously, but I could see that she would fit into this world, eventually. The writing kept me immersed in the storyline and I liked how that even though Mia had no experience in this world, she wasn’t going to run away. I am eager to continue this series, to see how these relationships continue to develop.
This scene actually cracked me up a little! It continues into the second tease...
I found Richard in his bachelor den. He sat on a chocolate colored couch, his legs out in front of him with his bare feet resting on the coffee table. He still wore his dress shirt from last night as well as boxer shorts, though not much else. He directed an X-box controller at a large flat screen TV. Coming round to face him, I was alarmed to see him wearing a scuba mask. The snorkel hung by his right ear. Winston sat beside him, panting.

“Why are you wearing that?” I said.
“They’re prescription. Can’t find my glasses.” Richard peered down at Winston. “Go find my glasses, Winston. Fetch.” They stared at each other. Winston panted away, his tail wagging. Richard looked back at me. “See what I’m up against?”
