He was a dare she couldn’t walk away from.She was a game he was determined to win.Jensen Stone was thriving in her first year of college. So thirsty for success she could already taste the achievements on her lips. Nothing would get in the way of her dreams, not even the social pressures of pledging. Until one night, she finds herself in the lion’s den of sorority row, accepting a dare she knew she couldn’t complete.Damien Cross was bored. He no longer craved the dominance and control he had swirling in the palms of his powerful hands. He was determined to walk away from the empire he'd spent the last ten years building. What he didn’t factor in was the unexpected distraction. He might be angry at her inconvenient timing, but the urge to break the new toy dangling in front of him was all consuming. It wouldn’t hurt to play one last time.One night. His rules.Will she obey his demands to fulfill a dare?Or will she realize his dark tastes are anything but exquisite?

4.5 Stars!! Incredibly sexy, heart pounding escape...
4.5 StarsJensen Stone is in over her head. With no desire to join a sorority, or even associate with the kinds of girls her BFF is so desperate to be accepted by, she finds herself giving in to be a friend in any way she can. Until, she let's her mouth get carried away, and ends up accepting a dare she has no business even thinking about...Damien Cross is just about as jaded as it gets. Spending day in and day out in his club, where the women are too easy to come by, and nothing ever changes. When he spots Jensen he is immediately drawn to her innocence... and her unwavering insolence.So, he generously offers to help her fulfill her dare... in exchange for one night with him... where he is in complete control...~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Exquisite Taste was an incredibly sexy, heart pounding escape into the world of Club Exquisite... from the man who pulls it's strings, to the pristine young woman he has no business wanting so badly...Jensen has just started college and while she is young and fairly naive, she has no problem standing up for herself. With the dare and subsequent run in with Damien, she holds her own and refuses to give up, much to Damien's delight... and absolute interest.  Damien hasn't been innocent in a long time, and spending time with someone like Jensen has him remembering what he used to want in life. She is not only irresistible to him sexually, but he has started to crave her fresh outlook on the world. Jensen and Damien's relationship was endlessly hot, with their sexual encounters and their constantly charged banter, I couldn't get enough of their unique brand of verbal foreplay. With countless obstacles to any kind of a permanent relationship between them, they have a lot in store before they can get even the slightest glimpse of a HEA.This book had it all, with all kinds of hot sex (of course), well written characters, interesting relationship drama, and a twist that you. will. not. see. coming. I received a complimentary copy of this book for my honest and unbiased review.

So Damien was ruthless, unforgiving and an absolute monster. And I so was in love with him. He didn't take crap from anyone. I fell in love when he tried kicking Jensen out of his club. I wasn't the fondest of Jensen's age. She was just a baby. She was only 18 and he was 34. I can't endorse her living the lifestyle she was thrusted into. I had a hard time believing most of her choices. I really liked Damien but Jensen not so much. Maybe it was her age. Maybe it was her naive ways. But she really didn't grow on me. I also wasn't the biggest advocate of them being together. I never got that feeling that they should be together. But this story was well written. It had a bit of excitement and it was raw. I enjoyed their banter. I love how Damien treated Jensen. Like the child she was. I am 100% team Damien. I loved his edginess. I loved his cruelty. I just loved him. He could definitely do damage. Did I mention I was in love with him?

Exquisite Taste is one of those erotic romance books that gives me 50 Shades vibes without the red room of pain (we get an entire club that goes pretty much unused) and a romance spread out through three books (this is it for this couple). Jensen is an 18-year-old college student and Damien is a 34-year-old sex club owner. There's a mean girl, a bad friend, and a bit of romantic suspense. It was a little crazy, fun, sexy, and a quick read. Nothing Earth shattering, but a good time.

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting Perspective
Reviewed in the United States on December 6, 2018
Jensen Stone is starting college in Chicago and rooming with Christine, her best friend from high school. Although Jensen has no interest in Greek life, Christine desperately wants to join a top sorority and has been dragging Jensen with her to various events. Sylvia, a powerful sorority mean girl, has been harassing and bullying Jensen, who decides to lie to Sylvia about being familiar with sex clubs in retaliation for some nasty comments Sylvia made. Sylvia realizes that Jensen will do anything to help her best friend achieve her dream of joining a top sorority and threatens to block Christine from all Greek life unless Jensen gets a copy of a BDSM dom/sub contract from Exquisite, a private and exclusive sex club in Chicago. This necessitates a trip to Exquisite where Jensen meets its dom owner, Damien Cross, after he observed the minor girls attempting to infiltrate the club.

Damien Cross is miserable with a life he never planned but was thrust into after his father's death - running Exquisite, which has been in the family for two generations of Crosses before him. But after more than a dozen years he has learned all the ropes and become the controlling dom needed to run the club. He becomes intrigued by the innocent brat who won't be dissuaded from attempting to gain access to the club's BDSM contract and, after repeatedly refusing to provide it to Jensen, finally agreed to let her have one only if Jensen agrees, in return, to sign one for a night with him (which he then converts to a month). Not wanting to let her best and only college friend and roommate down, Jensen ultimately agrees to this plan. This begins the very abnormal D/s relationship between them.

I found this book very enjoyable for at least the first half which primarily addressed the character and relationship development of Jensen and Damien. But once the story began to bring in additional side plots and Damien's previously unaddressed dissatisfaction with his life, it began to feel a bit too contrived for the sole purpose of the storyline. Even so, it never caused me to want to discontinue reading the story or jump ahead as I sometimes have with other books I've read. It was still a good book with a somewhat different BDSM perspective, and one that I would certainly be willing to recommend to others who enjoy this genre.

My first from J.D. Hollyfield and was it hot. It grips you with sexual tension right from the get go. Sex scenes were great but a little vanilla compared to other sex club books. The chemistry between the spawn of satan Damian and Jensen was hot and kept me reading.

1.0 out of 5 stars Every annoying tropes in there
Reviewed in France on December 30, 2018

It started out great but got terrible toward 50 %. The female lead is easily bullied even though she's presented as a strong character at the beginning...well she's not. The story goes like this
Bully: do the thing
Girl : i won't do the thing, I'm smarter than that
Also girl : *do the thing*
First time is ok. Second time is cute. Tenth time is FREAKING TIRING.
Not to mention all the wrong and boring tropes by the end of the book with the crazy ex and crazy jealous mean girl from school trying to seperate the couple.
I feel betrayed by the good rates on this book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Exquisite indeed
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 12, 2021

This was the first book I've read by this author, the blurb is what had me one clicking and I'm so glad I did. Damien was everything I needed right now. Exquisite Taste is an age gap romance, Damien and Jensen's love journey all started with a dare and a contract, neither could have predicted where their time together took them. Damien was a dominating man with dark desires, Jensen was an innocent girl who stumbled in to his path with fire in her eyes and sass in her attitude. Their chemistry together was off the charts. This book was all about discovering your most hidden and untapped desires, trusting the person you're with, with your body and your limits. Jensen was a blank canvas for Damien, he tried to fight his inner most desires but in the end his beast won out especially as Jensen knew the right buttons to push.
