About ON MY KNEES
Jackson Steele and Sylvia Brooks continue to thrill in the second novel of a scintillating, emotionally charged new trilogy that returns to the world of J. Kenner’s beloved Stark novels:Release Me, Claim Me, and Complete Me.
I never thought I’d lose control, but his desire took me right to the edge.
Powerful, ambitious, and devastatingly sexy, Jackson Steele was unlike any other man I’d ever known. He went after what he wanted with his whole mind, body, and soul—and I was the woman in his sights. One touch and I surrendered, one night together and I was undone.
Jackson and I had secrets, dark pieces of our pasts that threatened to swallow us both. We couldn’t outrun our demons, or the people trying to tear us apart. But in our passion we found salvation, and in each other’s arms we found release.
I was scared to trust Jackson fully, to finally let go. Yet no matter the dangers that lay ahead, I knew I was his—and now that we’ve laid claim, there’s no more holding back.
On My Knees is intended for mature audiences.

REVIEW:
The second in the Jackson Steele trilogy, Kenner once again grabs a hold of your thoughts and shakes the feels out of you. Secrets abound. Truths are exposed. Vulnerabilities are laid bare. Lots and lots of hot tie-me-up sex is had. Basically, I’m floating in an ocean of Jackson Steele paradise.
Do I care that this cliffhanger and storyline is slightly reminiscent of Damien and Nikki’s story? no. nope. all the no.
But you might, so I thought I’d let you know that I’ve been tinged with waves of nostalgia and doused with a bit of de ja vu while reading this.
SINCE I DON’T CARE, I will tell you that I’m just about as in love with Jackson as I am with Damien. These are two brothers I wouldn’t fuck with (or wait, yes I would). Jackson pulls you to his side immediately. While he’s keeping secrets from Sylvia [AND ME], you also know that he is totally in love with Sylvia and willing to do anything to protect her. This type of steadfast loyalty had me dropping to my knees screaming ‘yes, sir’ faster than you can say ‘good girl’. Jackson knows that he’s been provided the precious gift of Sylvia’s submission, and he doesn’t intend to abuse it.
Of course, he does fuck up. But hey – equal opportunity over here – Sylvia’s not a ball of perfection herself. She’s forced to examine her own demons that are creeping up from her past. She’s a bit more giving with her secrets than Jackson, but she’s not exactly rushing to open up old wounds and split herself open while sharing her darkest memories. While the two of them endeavor to hide the darkest parts of themselves – for self preservation, I believe, more than anything else – the world doesn’t wish for that to happen and it all comes spilling out into the light.
I love that Jackson and Sylvia are stronger together than they are apart. J. Kenner writes a love story that, while not without internal strife, has you pulling for the characters to take on the world together. Jackson and Sylvia are a perfect balance to the other: Jackson seeks to control and Sylvia seeks to choose to give up control. These scenes are filled with sensual promise and teasing in ways that I haven’t read before – it’s hot, intimate, and a little kinky. YES, PLEASE. Their sexual appetite is extremely healthy, and I was more than happy to sit back and let them explore all of the aspects of their newfound relationship. Carry on.
Damien and Nikki are all over this story [I fangirled in the privacy of my own home] and you meet new characters – some of whom I’m pretty sure have shady things in the works. This second in the trilogy keeps you on the edge of pleasure and captures your interest with the threat of exposure. I’m already counting down the moments until book 3 is released!
I give this ALL THE STARS.

EXCERPT
“I need you to tell me, baby. How should I touch you to get you there? Tell me what you want. Tell me what turns you on.”
My cheeks burn, which is ridiculous considering how open I am to him at this moment. But I can’t help it.
“Tell me,” he says, stepping closer. “Or have none of it.”
My eyes cut to him. “Cruel, Mr. Steele?”
“I can be. Or I can be very, very kind.” As he speaks, he moves his fingertip over my body. Literally over it, by about two inches. So that while I can imagine his touch, I do not get to experience it. Even so, it seems to me like he is leaving a trail of heat in his wake.
All that does, though, is drive home how much I will be missing if he doesn’t touch me for real.
