I have her all tied up . . . A gorgeous, 40 something walks into a bar, orders a Mai Tai and flirts with a man that checks every box in a sexy, dangerous, dark yakuza romance. Sounds like it would make for good conversation right? Except I’m that woman. I’m a shy geometry teacher who gets talked over, looked over, and took a good chunk of her 401k plan to fulfill a getaway vacation, that so happens to include the optional “smutty romance fantasy.” But halfway through drinks, flirting, and kissing on the first night, I realize I finessed the wrong drop, dead gorgeous guy. Don't get me wrong, Ryoichii's as beautiful as sin. But, he's not the man I pre-purchased to reenact my steamy book boyfriend fetishes lightyears away from my small Texas town. Ryoichi is the real deal . . . A yakuza boss! Tonight gets a whole lot darker when I see my very first murder. And now I’m all tied up—literally. This steamy BWAM love story includes the following tropes: dangerous yakuza leader, mistaken identity, abduction (obviously) and enemies to lovers romance!
