Spiked & Surrendered

By Clay J Dawson

A forbidden obsession. A dangerous game. A love that won't let go.

Matteo Barilla lives for control. On the volleyball court, he dominates every match. Off it, he's known for wild nights, tabloid scandals, and women who never last past sunrise. Until he meets Eva Russo-barefoot at a rooftop party, laughing in a borrowed dress, and looking at him like she isn't impressed by the fame or the jersey.

Eva Russo is supposed to be focused on psychology exams, not professional athletes with dark eyes and dirtier intentions. But when Matteo sets his sights on her, he doesn't play fair. He plays to win. And once he tastes her lips, he swears he'll never let her go.

Their chemistry is explosive, their encounters reckless-bathrooms, libraries, even the middle of campus. What starts as a one-night mistake spirals into an obsession neither of them can walk away from. But when protection is abandoned and secrets are revealed, Eva learns the most dangerous thing about loving Matteo isn't his fame, his obsession, or even his temper.

It's the fact that she might not escape with her heart-or her body-intact.

Spiked & Surrendered is a steamy, high-heat sports romance filled with obsession, dirty talk, breeding kink, and a possessive alpha hero who doesn't understand the word no. Perfect for fans of dark, obsessive love stories with explosive chemistry and happily ever afters that come at a cost.
