From USA Today Bestselling Author Layla Frost, a sexy age-gap series about LA’s most exclusive club. Welcome to Gilded… Agreeing to work for him was impulsive. Agreeing to be his submissive? Reckless. When my happy—if not bland—life imploded around me, the last thing I needed was more chaos. And chaos might as well have been Tripp Carter’s middle name. From our first meeting on a roof, I felt a connection to the famous actor. Beyond his easy charm and devastating good looks, there was a loneliness that mirrored my own soul. That was why I agreed to be his personal assistant. As it turned out, I got more than just a paycheck. I got an introduction to Gilded—the secret adult club for LA’s elite. The rules were simple. Outside of Gilded, I used my type-A skills to organize Tripp’s life and keep it running smoothly. But inside those wicked walls? He controlled me. Completely. When we were at the glamorous club, I didn’t have to think or overthink. I didn’t have to make decisions. I didn’t have to be exhaustingly perfect all the time. Our arrangement and the power he wielded over me was casual. Temporary. No-strings was far safer for my already bruised heart. Because after a lifetime of bland, spice could burn me until there was nothing left. Author Note: This relationship-focused, age-gap romance contains adult themes, situations, and language. Basically, all my favorite things. Check author’s site for full CW. Enjoy!

Growing up, Layla Frost used to hide under her blanket with a flashlight to read the Sweet Valley High books she pilfered from her older sister. It wasn’t long before she was reading hidden Harlequins during class at school. This snowballed into pulling all-nighters after the promise of “just one more chapter”. Her love of reading, especially the romance genre, took root early and has grown immeasurably until it was time to write her own stories. When she's not writing, Layla Frost is an insomniac with a deep love of iced coffee, tchotchkes, plants, and her hens. She's also the world's okayest mom, but her kids think she's cool... ish.
