The much anticipated release of Surrender to Me by Ella Jade is finally here.
Her promo teasers in the past month have had most everyone salivating much like locking a starving chocoholic in a room full of delectable desserts with a fork and spoon in hand then saying,
"Yes, darling, the feast in front of you is every bit as delicious as it seems...but you have to wait."

Sheer and utter torture, right?
Well, the wait is over.
Today is the official release day of Surrender to Me and to celebrate,
not only do we have an excerpt, we also have the official trailer and
the chance to win a $10 gift card. To say I'm excited is a bit of an understatement.

I’m
pleased to announce the release of Surrender to Me, the sequel to Make Me Stay.
What happens when a Dominant
falls for his not-so-submissive attorney?
Martin Abrams, owner of
Master M's BDSM club, has become unfulfilled with his lifestyle. Ever since his
sub, Gracie, left to marry her true love, Martin has lost his way. Living the
life of the head Dominant in his circle isn't as appealing as it once was.
Something seems to be missing.
Sassy lawyer Arianna
Covington relocates to New York City after a humiliating divorce. She's looking
for a fresh start when she agrees to become Martin's exclusive attorney. She's
intrigued by his domineering personality and wants to know why women kneel at
his feet.
Their attraction is
undeniable despite Ari's initial beliefs that she will never submit to Martin's
desires. But Martin is up for the challenge. Arianna is more than he ever
imagined in a woman. He vows to claim her heart, with or without the games. Who
will surrender first?
Featuring Cade and Gracie
from Make Me Stay.
Check out the hot and sexy
trailer for a peek into the plot.
Excerpt
“All
the subs act that way around you?” Arianna asked.
“It’s
the only way they know. It’s what’s expected of them.”
“I
don’t understand how any woman would bow down like that. It’s not normal.”
“Maybe
not for you.” Martin understood Arianna’s position. Most who didn’t participate
in a Dominant and submissive relationship didn’t get it.
“It’s
degrading. She can’t use the phone. She’s a grown woman.”
“Arianna,
this is a lifestyle you can’t possibly comprehend because you know nothing
about it. A submissive gets just as much as he or she gives. The arrangement
they enter into with a Dom is consensual. Roxy is not forced into being here.
Her Dom respects and cares for her. She has a very good life.”
“He
punishes her.”
“When
she disobeys. It’s in her contract.”
“A
contract that can’t possibly be enforced in court.”
“Spoken
like a true lawyer.” He finished his scotch. “The contract is to protect them
both. It lists what is expected of a sub and what the Dominant’s
responsibilities are. They outline hard and soft limits. We create a safe,
sane, and consensual environment, and that contract maintains trust between the
two parties. As long as it is upheld between the parties involved that’s all
that matters.”
“To
each his own, I suppose.” She shrugged. “I’m your real estate attorney. What
you do here is none of my business.”
Then
why are you here, kitten?
“I’m very
open, Arianna. If you have questions, I’ll be happy to answer them. People
should be educated in my lifestyle. It isn’t as uncommon or bizarre as you may
think.” He reached for her hand. “I hope you won’t judge me without getting to
know me.”
“Um,
no.” She looked down at their joined hands. He liked the way her cheeks turned
colors when he flustered her. “Of course not. This whole environment is
different. It’s going to take some getting used to.”
“I
understand.” He ran his thumb over the soft skin of her hand. “If you’d prefer
not to meet here anymore—”
“It’s
not a problem.”
“Very
well.” He smiled because as he suspected she wanted to be there. “Will you join
me for dinner?”
Martin
couldn’t remember the last time he’d asked a woman to have dinner with him. He
usually just summoned a sub when he was in the mood for company. Gracie was the
last woman he’d spent any time with at all. Perhaps it was time to explore his
options. Obviously, Arianna would be different than the women he dealt with,
but he liked the change. When Gracie left him for Cade everything changed. He
hadn’t been interested in another sub. As a matter of fact, he hadn’t been
interested in another woman until now.
“I’d
love to join you for dinner, Mr. Abrams.”
“I’d
like you to call me Martin.” Allowing people to use his name wasn’t a privilege
he granted often, but everything was different with her. He stood from the bar
and picked up her briefcase. “I hope you like Italian. I ordered enough for six
people. I wasn’t sure what you would want.”
“Italian
is fine.” She took his extended hand and walked to the back of the club with
him. “Why didn’t you just wait and ask what I would want?”
“I’m
not used to asking.” He motioned for her to take a seat in the huge u-shaped
booth that overlooked the Manhattan skyline.
“Oh,
Martin.” She giggled. He liked the way his name tumbled off her lips. “You have
a lot to learn about non-submissive women.”
Surrender to Me is the sequel to Make Me Stay but both books stand alone so
the reader can choose to read either one first. You may want to start
with Make Me Stay to get the back story.
Both Books available on
Amazon, Barnes and Noble and ARE
Ella Jade has been writing for as
long as she can remember. As a child, she often had a notebook and pen with
her, and now as an adult, the laptop is never far. The plots and dialogue have
always played out in her head, but she never knew what to do with them. That
all changed when she discovered the eBook industry. She started penning novels
at a rapid pace and now she can't be stopped.
Ella resides in New Jersey with her
husband and two young boys. When she's not chasing after her kids, she's busy
writing, attending PTO meetings, kickboxing, and scrapbooking.
She hopes you'll
get lost in her words.
You can find
Ella here…
