Leverage & Obedience
(2026)(A book in the Standalone Spicy Romance and Completed series)
A novel by April Cross
Obedience has never felt so permanent.
I've made a career out of not staying. Six temp jobs in four years, and I've never once looked back. No attachments, no mess when the contract ends. It's easier than staying.
Then I meet Bren Harrison.
He's sixteen years older. The kind of Dom who doesn't raise his voice because he doesn't need to. He runs his distressed debt firm the way he runs everything — with complete control.
He wants me on my knees behind a locked office door. I want to be there. We set the rules: no strings, and when my contract ends, I walk away clean.
Every time he touches me, my body surrenders before my brain can catch up. Every time he calls me his good girl, I forget there’s a time limit on my job.
One command and I'm desperate to obey. One whispered promise about what he wants to put inside me and I'm imagining a future I've never let myself want.
He says everyone in his life is temporary. What he doesn't tell me is that he's been making it that way on purpose — because the last woman he loved was taken from him without warning.
I'm falling for a man who's engineered his entire life to let me go. And I'm helpless to stop.
"Leverage & Obedience" is a scorching love story featuring a dominant boss, an age-gap power exchange, office tension, dirty talk, baby-making themes, and a woman who has to decide if she's brave enough to stay. This filthy story delivers possessive devotion and a guaranteed HEA.
