ARC Review: My Wicked Valentine by Ann Mayburn

MY WICKED VALENTINE blends the sweet and sexy together into an enticing story. With V Day fast approaching, this book is the perfect read to get you ready!  ~ Under the Covers

Lucia Roa is an event planner hoping to catch a big break with this opportunity to mange a Valentine’s Day part for an elite club in Washington. However, she is in for a little shock when she finds out that this isn’t just some romantic party, it’s actually a BDSM party for private members of the club called Wicked. Tired of doing sweet sixteen parties, Lucia tries her hand at landing the job but instead finds herself in hot water when she introduced to the hottie CEO named Isaac O’Keefe.

The chemistry between Lucia and Isaac is instant and intense! Right from the first page, Ann Mayburn plays up the sizzling sexual tension. I was fully enthralled by Isaac. Even his name is smoking hot! But there was something very alluring about him. He is a very fair Dom and I loved that he took the time to make Lucia trust him. The event planner job wasn’t enough to have Lucia trust him completely, but as time went on, Isaac slowly charms Lucia so that she becomes more comfortable with his presence and the nature of BDSM.

The first half of the book is Isaac getting Lucia used to the idea of BDSM. As a newbie, her discovery is a good way for readers to understand BDSM as well. If you’re a reader looking to try a BDSM book, then I think MY WICKED VALENTINE is a good start! With its slow buildup, it’s a great book for those curious, but don’t know where to start!

I found that I enjoyed Lucia mostly because of her open-mindedness. In the beginning of the story, she is completely blindsided about what BDSM is, but she doesn’t let that deter her. She keeps her mind open to possibilities and even though she was hesitant at first, she is the big reason why this relationship worked so well.

MY WICKED VALENTINE blends the sweet and sexy together into an enticing story. With V Day fast approaching, this book is the perfect read to get you ready!
