Thorned Thistle

At a remote Highland estate, a commanding dominant offers two broken souls sanctuary—and a chance to surrender to the darkest desires they’ve denied themselves.

KIERNAN

I see what they hide the moment they arrive—Ophelia’s desperate need to surrender beneath her masks, and Oliver’s craving to submit, hidden under all that dominance. I want to strip away every false layer and claim them both. What I don’t anticipate is how commanding them will leave me just as exposed.

OLIVER

I hadn’t questioned who I was until I discovered the Thorned Thistle, near the estate where we’ve taken refuge. My attraction to Kiernan confuses me, and my need to protect Ophelia while surrendering to him terrifies me. Between them, I’m forced to accept a truth I’ve been running from: I crave the surrender as much as the control.

OPHELIA

I’ve spent my life performing, becoming whoever others need me to be. But Kiernan sees through every mask, and Oliver protects me like I’m worth saving. Between commanding dominance and fierce devotion, I can finally stop thinking and just feel. For the first time, I can surrender to what I’ve always craved.

The books in the Thorned Thistle series are all standalones that do not need to be listened to in order.
