A is for…
The overseers of LA’s most exclusive BDSM club have a sexy new game that all members must play, and experienced sub Anna has no choice but to participate, despite the fact that she’s only months away from being bonded.
Master Jensen knows who, and what, he wants—Anna—but when he’s assigned the first letter of the alphabet he must prove to himself, and the lovely submissive, that he’s willing to push them both to their limits, and maybe beyond.
When Anna and Jensen are forced to face the depth of their desires, and the painful origins of their relationship, they’ll learn that the worst pain comes not from a whip, but from the heart.
B is for…
Mae never imagined she’d be assigned to the most dangerous letter of the alphabet… or paired with the most sinister Dominant in the club. The BDSM Checklist game doesn’t scare Xavier, but he prefers leather and steel, and the submissive he’s partnered with thinks silk ribbon is bondage equipment.
Pushed to her limits both physically and emotionally, Mae is shock to discover how much she enjoys Xavier’s touch. But in the end it isn’t just Mae who will be affected by the unexpected chemistry between two seeming opposites. Xavier will have to decide if he’s willing to trust the lovely sub with the truth about himself, as he proves to her that there’s a darkness in her—a darkness that just might match his own.
C is for…
Beth is the perfect sub: quiet, obedient, and well trained. After years of membership in LA’s most exclusive BDSM club she’s served many of the most demanding masters and mistresses…and she’s bored.
James is a committed Dom who enjoys nothing more than a bratty sub he can “punish” until they’re both satisfied. The last thing he wants is a serious submissive.
Beth is on the verge of leaving the club when she’s paired with Master James as part of the BDSM checklist game. They’re both surprised to find that the hyper-obedient Beth is hiding the true depth of her submission, and James will have to decide if he’s willing to break his own rules to give Beth what she needs.
D is for…
Cleo knew the overseers of Las Palmas, L.A.’s most exclusive BDSM club, would use their new checklist game to pair her with one of the more serious Doms. She never dreamed she’d end up with the Dom who has the power to destroy her soul—her first Master, and ex-husband, Hadrian.
Hadrian hasn’t been to the club in years. After the fiery dissolution of his marriage, he threw himself into work, doing his best to forget his beloved submissive, who also happens to be his ex-wife.
When Cleo and Hadrian are forced together once again, they’ll have to decide if they’ll play the game and explore the letter D…or if it would be easier to walk away from BDSM altogether.
E is for…
A stern, demanding Master.
Aram Green knows he’s a cliche—the divorce lawyer who doesn’t believe in love—the Dom who uses structure and rules to control his emotions. He has no intention of letting the checklist game—a challenge designed by the overseers of his exclusive BDSM club—change him, or the way he dominates.
A passionate, wary submissive.
Charlie is both thrilled and terrified by the crazy checklist game. She came to BDSM because of her love/hate relationship with her body, which makes it hard for her to open herself to new Doms. But when she meets Master Green she’s drawn to the older man, who is both stern and intensely passionate.
A challenge from which neither will back down.
Determined to push them both, Master Green takes her outside the club to complete the more risky items on their checklist, a decision that brings emotion into their play. Determined to keep their relationship confined to the checklist game, Master Green pushes Charlie away. When she runs from him, he’ll have to decide if he’s willing to relax his own rules, and fight to keep Charlie even after they’re done with the letter E.
F is for…
F is for kinky, sexy, fun.
Katrina walked away from her last Master, swearing she was done with BDSM, but the desire to submit never went away. Desperate for release, she joins Las Palmas, LA’s most exclusive BDSM club.
Dante loves kinky sexy and beautiful submissive women. He may be stern when he’s ordering a sub to kneel for him, but he’s not interested in dominance and submission as a lifestyle. Las Palmas is his outlet, his place to play.
Katrina’s first day as a member coincides with the start of the checklist game. She’s been desperately wanting to submit once more, and Master Dante is sexy, kind, and seriously dominant—all the things a sub could wish for. But when they take on the letter F and all the kinks, toys and activities associated with it, Katrina learns the past doesn’t always stay dead and buried.
G is for…
Given away to another Dom.
Of all the things Sejal expected from the letter G, having her Master give her away was never one of them.
As a member of LA’s most exclusive BDSM cl
ub, Sejal has to play the club overseer’s new game. A game where everyone is assigned a letter and with their partners has to explore every item that begins with that letter on the BDSM checklist. Collared and bonded to Master Sato, Sejal assumes he’ll be her partner, but one of the first items on the checklist is “given away to another Dom.” Sejal’s Master gives her to Master Cortland Dowell, a ridiculously sexy Dom who looks at her in a way her own Master hasn’t in far too long.
Cortland is a good Dom. It’s one of the few things he’s good at. And being a good Dom means when Master Sato passes over Sejal’s leash his first thought is making sure the beautiful submissive is okay with what’s happening.
Though they seem like very different people, Sejal and Cortland soon realize they’re a perfect fit as Dominant and submissive. The problem is she’s only his for the weekend, unless, of course, Cortland decides that instead of giving her away temporarily, Master Soto meant the other item on the checklist—giving away his sub…permanently.
H is for…
Rosa hoped becoming a submissive would fix her relationship with Liam. It hasn’t.
Liam has loved Rosa nearly half his life, but he knows he doesn’t make her happy. The one thing he wants more than anything is to keep her safe. He would never hurt her–she’s been hurt enough.
When Rosa and Liam are assigned to the letter H as part of their BDSM club’s new checklist game, a chance to come together instead becomes a reason to drift further apart. With so many items on the list for H, they aren’t the only people assigned to the letter. Thinking it will make her happy, Liam allows Rosa to join another Dom’s harem. Pushed to his breaking point by what he sees his lover doing, Liam will decide if their past will stop him from becoming the Master she needs, or if he’ll accept the darkness of his own desires.
I is for…
Who knew a little ice could burn so hot?
Master Raine needs control the way fish need water. His life outside LA’s most exclusive BDSM club is chaotic, and as a result he demands complete obedience from his submissives.
Chastity is delighted when she learns she’s been assigned the letter I as part of the club’s checklist game. After all, there’s nothing she loves more than a spanking or flogging, both forms of impact play. She’s in for a surprise, when she learns that “impact” isn’t even on the list.
Chastity is an excellent submissive, but hates rules. Master Raine is a careful Dom, but without structure he becomes ruthless. Their deceptively simple list of toys becomes something so much more when the truth about who they really are is revealed.
J is for…
There's nothing on the BDSM checklist that starts with the letter J. That should mean Grif and Davina, an established Dom/sub pair, will have an easy time with the Checklist Game. But when the overseers of Las Palmas, LA's most exclusive club, challenge them to push their personal boundaries, they'll find that they don't know each other as well as they think.
Grif wants more from Davina—they’re perfect together as master and submissive, but despite the intimacy of their power exchange, they’re essentially strangers. He doesn’t even know her last name.
Davina needs submission, and the only man she trusts to Master her is Grif. She trusts him with her body, but not with her secrets. She wants to keep it that way, but once they start playing the game, will she be able to keep her past hidden from the man she might be falling in love with?
A simple challenge, a complicated relationship, and a night that could change everything.
K is for…
Oliver Sanz is intrigued by the opportunity his BDSM club’s new checklist game presents. Assigned to the letter K, he gets to kidnap the lovely submissive Kumiko. One weekend together with a list of items and then they’ll part ways.
Kumiko Ito is annoyed that she’d doesn’t know who her Dom is, but she knows she doesn’t want to play a game. Her once carefully planned life is in turmoil and she needs a serious Dom to help her get out of her head. A new partner, and a new game, might be one change too many.
The first time they touch Kumi realizes there’s a problem—Oliver is the kind of man she could fall in love with, but he doesn’t believe in mixing BDSM and romance. How can she avoid falling in love, and in lust, with a Dom so strict he makes the kidnapping seem like the sexiest thing to ever happen to her.
L is for…
When Las Palmas announces the checklist game, Victoria Contreras isn’t concerned, she’s intrigued. Even more so when her partner is none other than Master Cain.
Cain Ward enjoys trading verbal barbs with Victoria, but now they’re going do more than match wits. They’ll take on every “L” item on the BDSM checklist in a weekend of leather-wrapped pleasure and pain.
When their time together is over, only one questions remains. Will Cain admit that he bribed the overseers to make sure he finally got to put his hands on Victoria?
M is for…
M is for medical, but an intense medical scene is only first of the things Master Zidan had planned for Cali.
Their past is complicated, but what they once had is long dead. To survive the game, Zidan decides they should role play…as the most extreme versions of dominant and submissive possible. The role play, plus the letter M, means they’ll both be pushed to their limits. Physical…and emotional.
When their past refused to stay dead, the checklist game becomes a catalyst for a fight that’s been years in the making. They’re about to find out that the checklist game is not for the faint of heart, or those whose hearts could still be broken.
A note from Lila…
Originally this book ended with chapter ten.
Then some very smart people informed me that if I didn’t add more to Cali and Zidan’s story I’d have a mob of angry romance readers chasing me…
If you prefer erotica to erotic romance, feel free to ignore Epilogue One. If you want a little more happy ever after…well then the epilogue is for you.
I’ve included a longer note about this at the end of the book if you want to know more. Enjoy!

M is for…
Chapter 1
Manacles and a mouth bit.
Cali ran her thumb over the dull metal of the manacle. A circle of metal at least three inches wide and half an inch thick, it was heavy. There was a small flat hook protruding from one of the open ends. It would slide into a slot on the other side, locking it closed. No visible safety or quick release. It would weigh down her arm once she closed it around her wrist.
Only a pale hint of light blue showed in the west where the sun had sunk down into the Pacific Ocean. Even if she hadn’t been in the enclosed interior courtyard of the Subs’ Garden, the ocean wouldn’t have been visible. Not from this deep in the Malibu Hills.
She set down the open manacle. The chain connecting it to its mate clinked as the links overlapped, forming a messy pile.
The gag was less intimidating. It was a bit-style gag, rather than the more common in BDSM ball gag, or the cloth stuffed in the mouth common to kidnappers. A rubber-coated stick, about six inches long, with large rings embedded through the ends. Straps connected to the rings allowed it to be fastened at the back of the head, the rubber “bit” gripped between the teeth.
Her partner, or partners—since it could be more than one person—had left a bag with these items just outside the gate that locked off the Subs’ Garden, making it the only place in the club where Doms, Masters, and Owners couldn’t go.
She preferred pre-negotiated scenes with a top she knew and trusted.
The game had changed that. She had no idea who she would be paired with, or what they’d be doing.
She, along with the other subs, had retreated to the Subs’ Garden after they were dismissed from the conclave post game announcement. Almost immediately subs had started being called via the PA system to go meet their partners. When her name was called, she was told to retrieve a bag that had been dropped outside the gate—which turned out to c
ontain the manacles and bit—and then report to the Iron Court in one hour.
That was thirty minutes ago, meaning she had twenty or so minutes before she had to walk out the gate.
Cali set the gag down and leaned back in her chair. There were heat lamps out here, chasing away the chill, but even in California it was cool outside at night, too cool to be wearing only some latex fetwear.
But it was quiet out here under the stars. She was the only one in the courtyard.
Quiet could be hard for her to come by, and she was good at being slightly physically uncomfortable. That thought made her lips quirk.
Handling discomfort gracefully made her a good sub.
Her deeply taboo need to be stripped, whipped, and humiliated also helped her submit.
Still, the metal restraints and bit on the table gave her pause, not just because they weren’t common BDSM props—at least at this club—but because she didn’t know who’d sent them.
Cali zealously guarded her privacy. Most of what was known about her publicly, including her romantic attachment, was carefully crafted by a publicist. She would have preferred to not be a member of any club, and instead have a private play space of her own, but she couldn’t risk it. So instead she came to Las Palmas, deliberately avoided the public parts of the club, and went right to whatever room she and her partner were scening in.
