Pleasure is the product. Surrender is the price. She applied for a job. She found three men who want her to kneel. And now she's about to learn that too much... is never enough. Sloane Harper wasn't looking to be anyone's anything. After her fiancé dumped her for wanting "too much"-too often, too messy, too loud-she buried that part of herself deep. Love? Off the table. Sex? Only if it came with batteries and no shame. But everything changes when she lands a job at SOLAÉ, a luxury sex toy company devoted to divine submission. Her new bosses? Just happen to be three of the most dangerously magnetic men she's ever met. Nathaniel Blackwell is calm, commanding, an architect of structure and surrender. Jace Narváez is chaos wrapped in silk, a sinful mouth that turns praise into poetry. Elias Baptiste is a shadow in the dark-silent until he snaps, and then you're ruined. From the second they meet Sloane... they want her too. All of her. Six months in, Sloane is still holding out. Barely. She spends every lunch break and late night with a vibrator between her thighs, dreaming of what it would feel like to be taken, praised, broken, and rebuilt... by them. But when Sloane anonymously volunteers to test a new prototype... and the cofounders tune in to the live feedback session... everything changes. Because they know it's her. They recognize the sound of her voice. And now? They want to hear it again. This time in person. She thought she knew pleasure. She thought she had limits. She thought she was in control. She's about to learn what happens when you surrender to three men who live to make you Obey.
