Author: Lauren Rowe
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Day: January 5, 2015
Synopsis:
When playboy businessman Jonas Faraday receives a private note from the anonymous intake agent assigned to process his online application to an exclusive sex club, he becomes obsessed with finding her and giving her the sexual satisfaction she claims has always eluded her, in order to fulfill his own desperate need for redemption.
Sarah : When I read Jonas Faraday’s brutally honest personal message on his application to The Club, I practically climaxed at my desk. I’m an idiot to risk losing my job but I couldn't resist contacting him. I knew my confession would be like dangling an irresistible carrot in front of his nose—but never in a million years did I think he’d actually hunt me down.
Jonas : I was shocked to get my intake agent’s email—I’d attached that note to my application on a whim, never expecting a reply from an actual person, let alone a reply as mind blowing as that. Her message was so alluring, so irresistible, I’ve been spiraling into a full-blown obsession ever since I got it. What’s her name? What does she look like? Finding her is my top priority.
In The Club , what starts out as an innocent exploration of sexual attraction quickly spirals into a steamy story of unbridled passion, obsession, heartbreak, and, ultimately, redemption.

Review:
The Club (The Club Trilogy Bk1) Lauren Rowe 4 stars
Jonas is persuaded by his brother to join 'The Club' a secret dating/sexual rendevous type club. He submits his rather cocky application which he directs personally at his 'beautiful intake agent'. Sarah the intake agent, is so taken with the application she daringly responds to him privately! They haven't even met and the chemistry between them is sizzling. Jonas is a total womaniser until he meets Sarah who totally blows his game to bits, they are both broken and have hidden pasts, however, together they just fit and make everything right.
The obsession, passion and hot, steamy chemistry that builds between Sarah and Jonas is so intense. The book covers both Sarah and Jonas' point of view and their in depth thoughts. Considering their pasts, I liked how the story wasn't too dark and had really fun elements to it.
I loved the book and the storyline but found some of the chapters a bit long and drawn out, but having said that I can't wait to start reading book 2.

Excerpt
And there she is.
Damn.
Wow, her photo didn’t even begin to do her justice.
Some sort of primal hunting instinct is threatening to overtake me. I want to tackle her and ravage her right here and now. But, of course, that’s not an option. I’ve got to make her understand I’m not all about fucking her. If that were all I wanted, I could get that in The Club. Somehow, I hold it together well enough to pretend to be a civilized human being, capable of normal conversation.
“Sarah,” I breathe, holding my hand out to her. “Happy Valentine’s Day.”
She smiles up at me. Oh, those lips. They slayed me in her photo, but in person, they make me want to get down on my knees.
“Happy Valentine’s Day, Jonas,” she replies. Oh, that hint of gravel in her voice. Maintaining control over myself tonight is going to be a tall order.
She takes my extended hand.
Her skin is soft and warm. I look down at her hand in mine and see that damned thumb ring of hers, and that just about does me in. For a split second, I contemplate pushing her back into the limo, crawling on top of her, and running my hands over every inch of her. Instead, I bring her hand up to my mouth and gently kiss the top of it—and then, slowly, pointedly, I lay a gentle kiss right onto her thumb ring.
Her eyes blaze—she knows I’m already a goner. She smiles and slowly pulls her hand away from my mouth—but the expression on her face tells me she likes the feel of my lips as much as I like the feel of her skin. Just that simple exchange, and the air is sexually charged. Not good. I mean, it’s fucking awesome, don’t get me wrong—but tonight is supposed to be about everything except my insatiable hard-on for her. In fact, tonight is emphatically not about that. Tonight is about showing her she’s not some phone sex operator to me. Tonight is about showing her I’m quite functional in ways that don’t involve my tongue or dick. I’ve got to make her understand that what she knows about me, she’s learned only thanks to a uniquely exposing circumstance—a situation unlike any other that, by its nature, compelled me to reveal the darkest, most primal parts of myself, parts I’ve never shown or talked about with anyone else. In real life, I swear, I’m really quite charming.
I’ve got to show her that, despite my insatiable and seemingly uncontrollable desire for her, I really do possess some attributes that aren’t even the least bit sociopathic. So, yeah, the more I think about it, tonight is all about showing her the parts of me that aren’t the least bit sociopathic.
I exhale, trying to get ahold of myself. I can’t allow myself to have a raging hard-on all night long. I’d never be able to concentrate on anything she’s saying—and that would blow my show-her-I’m-not-a-sociopath strategy to bits.
“So nice to finally meet you,” she says, smirking.
“No, Sarah, believe me, the pleasure’s all mine.”
