Smoldering Ruby Kindle Edition
After four years of allowing the dust to settle, Ruby can no longer deny the flicker of curiosity that comes with tempting danger again. She refuses to deny the burning pleasure that once came at the unyielding hands of a sick, sick man.
She knows now what she must do to feel alive again: It is in a club where wealthy men go to have one night stands with submissive women where she finally faces it all. In His hands now, Ruby cannot resist Secret Liaisons’ Owner Nathan Holloway. The feeling is mutual. Set on the curvy woman with aqua eyes and a claim that she will never allow herself to be broken again, Nate is not one to turn down a challenge.
Indeed, sparks will fly.
But even in the brightest of fires is a darkness. And Holloway has secrets too. For starters, he’s the man who molds younger girls into shady patrons’ tools. No one knows about his basement, where he brings the naughty ones with pouty bottom lips and attitudes like Ruby’s. It’s been six months. But they will again soon.
That is, she will.
He will throw everything he knows at it and her. He won’t lose. He understands this truth:
To tame the wildest of fires, you must know it from its very source. You must contain it too. It will start with the cellar, a cage and an unraveling of secrets so shadowy, someone is bound to get burned…

- Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2018This book takes you into a world I really know nothing about. The authors in this book were amazing. They both did a great job writing and keeping you on the edge of your seat. Even though I know nothing about this lifestyle. The authors wrote this book so well I feel like I know a lot now. It is dark, erotic, sexual and dangerous in the BDSM world. I never knew what was going to happen, and it's one of those books that you read all at once. The book revolves around Ruby. At times I really felt sorry for her. She has secrets and loss and really seems to like danger. Nathan is one big issue she has. What will happen? I'm not going to say get the book to find out. I recommend this book to 18+. Tressa did an amazing job. I find it really hard to believe this is only Bebe's second book. Wow do they have a bright future as authors. What a great book by two amazing authors!!!!
- Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2018This is an amazing book from two new and obviously talented authors! The story is so intriguing! It is very dark and twisted, so a warning to those who may have triggers or be offended. But if you like things a little dark and twisted, you need to get this book! Erotica with a suspense twist, this is more than it seems. Ruby is such a strong character, I cannot wait to read more of her. There is so much going on, it is so hard to explain without giving away. Ruby finds herself in a place she did not intend to be, yet part of her is happy. She cringes every time he walks in. Yet she secretly begs for him. The things done to her are unimaginable. Yet she wants more.
You will run through all of your emotions in this book and will want more once you reach the end. All we can do is hope there will be another book in this world and soon!! I highly recommend this book.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2019I wasn't sure what to expect when I dove into this book but I know I didn't expect that ending. This was a hot read, I can't wait to read the second book now.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2018This delightfully wicked story will have you burning through the pages. Ruby having been drugged and taken by a man named Nate, has been brought to his home of Dark and Abusive, Dom and submissive horror.Although she is frightened by her Dom she also finds herself enjoying and needing the abuse she is enduring. Until one night it all goes terribly wrong. This book is an erotic/horror masterpiece. You will be pleasantly surprised by the chills these two authors bring you. Truly hoping they will be doing a sequel and at least more books together.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2019So, I'll be honest. I don't actually like the story at all. It's much too dark for me. I'm still testing the waters into dark romance to find my limits. That is absolutely no fault of the authors, so I won't criticize her for that one bit. She had every warning in place so anyone with half a lick of common sense would know this is DARK with a capital D. That being said, the writing was well done, and if the subject matter had been to my taste I would have enjoyed it thoroughly! If you do like your drama dark, this is a good one for you!
- Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2018This is an erotic thriller about Doms and Subs and the under world they live in. Keep in mind this is a story of fiction. These characters need each other and their quiet world.
This is a HAWT erotic romance of sorts! You'll be endeared to Ruby and her plight. You may also come to like Mate. He does have a heart, after all.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2018The beginning of Smoldering Ruby started off by describing a somewhat chilling scenario of master and submissive. I was instantly intrigued and wanted to know more about Ruby, her captor, and how their whole relationship came to be. Her predicament seemed both a pleasure to her and a curse, and this kept me turning the pages as I was eager to understand.
Getting to know Nathan better was a double-edged sword. It was both interesting and frightening to see inside his mind. Learning about the girls and their "training" was startling. Ruby didn't strike me as the type to give up, so I was curious to know how things were going to play out.
Vera's story was shocking and was a great addition to the book, especially her first encounter with Nathan. She was a character that I wouldn't mind reading more about.
The things that Ruby witnessed and was made to endure were dark and intense. And the book just kept getting more twisted and dirty as it went along. At times, it was a bit filthy for my usual reading tastes, but I found that because of the storyline itself I was always curious about what would happen next.
The final chapters really brought the action to a head and had me reading faster and faster to get to the conclusion. The ending left me shocked once again, and yet I found it to be perfect with what I knew about Ruby.
These authors did a fantastic job of working together to create a dark and sordid story. I think fans of this genre will certainly be entertained and enjoy this book.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 14, 2018This new author Bebe Harlow and seasoned author Tressa Rabbit have got together and made a sizzling book. Ruby needs to be needed Nate drugs Ruby and their adventure in sex and pain begins. Ruby is a needy sub and Nate is the Master. Nate cares for Ruby and she cares for him in their own way. This book is full of insights of the mind of a submissive and a dominant. Ruby has secrets and so does Nate both are obsessed with their secrets. I can say that I am looking forward to the next adventure with Ruby and Nate.
