The Cleaners, 1

It’s the choice of her life—submit or die. 

When Susie Elliot stumbles into the middle of a clean-up, undertaken by none other than Ellis Reynolds, she expects her life to be over. No one disturbs this ruthlessly efficient killer and lives to tell the tale. 

The man they call Ren has no time for tender feelings, but there is something about the curvaceous redhead that calls to him. Rather than killing her he claims her as his prize. One night should be more than enough time to get her out of his system. However, Susie’s submission means Ren has to confront emotions, completely alien to him. Killing is easy. This relationship thing is fraught with problems. 

When his criminal activities catch up with him, loyalties are tested to the max, and Susie has another choice to make—walk away, or stay and accept the darkness within.

Be Warned: BDSM, anal sex, impact play

Excerpt:

“Problem, Sir?” she asked and did her best to glare at him. “You mean apart from being kept a prisoner by you?”

Her frown deepened when Ren swung his head back and laughed.

“Yes, apart from that small detail. And watch the sass. You’re not in a position to exhibit any. I still owe you a punishment as it stands. I’m referring to the loan sharks, for starters.”

He paused to assess her reaction, and when she simply stared at him, seemingly lost for words, he smirked.

“They won’t bother you again, as I’ve pointed out the error of their ways of collecting on our territory. Once they realized you were a Huntly girl, they couldn’t have been more cooperative. Shame, really, I’d have enjoyed killing them…”

A strangled groan escaped her at his words, and he drank in her sudden fear.

“Which leaves your punishment.”

Her eyes widened when he walked over to the rack where he kept his assortment of impact play toys. Running his fingers slowly along them he kept an eye on her expression. The whip made her tense, whereas the flogger made her breathing speed up in seeming anticipation. The cane elicited a similar reaction to the whip, whereas the paddles didn’t seem to faze her at all. In the end he settled for one of his personal favorites. He knew he made the right decision when she didn’t seem capable of tearing her eyes away from the riding crop. She jumped when he slapped it into his open hand, and shivers raced over her skin as he traced the end around her nipples. The little pink nubs firmed under the gentle pressure he used, and Susie gasped when he slapped the underside of each breasts with the end of the crop. Not hard enough to truly hurt her, just enough to leave a very satisfactory red mark behind. Her sweet musk increased, and a quick glance between her open legs confirmed what Ren already knew. She was getting off on this.

Her ex had been most informative in the end. Then again, being strung up by one’s balls tended to make a man sing like a fucking canary. Ren knew all he needed to about this delightful young woman. A natural submissive, she’d thrived under the experienced Doms in the club, Ren, too, occasionally attended. She had been less responsive to Brian’s brand of sadism. Then again that wanker wouldn’t know what to do with true submission if it hit him in the ass and bit him. He’d only been interested in getting Suzie trained up, so that he could sell her on. When the redhead had realized his plans, she’d run. Straight to Huntly and ultimately Ren, which meant her delectable curves were now his for the taking.

He ran the tip of the crop lower, over the quivering flesh of her rounded belly, until he hit the juncture of her thighs. A groan escaped his girl when he teased the crop up and down either side of her slit, and her puffy lips swelled further as more blood rushed to the area. Her clit stood even more erect, and Suzie’s whole body stiffened when he ran lazy circles around that bundle of nerves. The chains clanked, her toes curled under, and her breaths came in short, staccato bursts. More of her sweet musk escaped her clenching hole and dribbled down into the cleft of her ass, as her body climbed toward release.

“I haven’t given you permission to come, pumpkin, remember that.”

Another one of those cock hardening groans was her response, and chuckling, Ren increased the pressure he used, while Suzie bit her lips so hard she drew blood in her seeming effort to control her body. The fact that she did wasn’t lost on him. The girl’s submissive streak ran deep, and she had been well trained indeed to respond to his command so instinctively.

“Good girl, how close are you right now?”

Ren withdrew the crop after one long last swipe through her sodden slit, which left the leather soaked in her juices. Such a fucking turn-on.

When she didn’t answer him, he brought the crop down hard on her quivering clit.

Susie screamed and bucked against her restraints, and the fire in her passion glazed eyes when she glared at him made his balls ache anew. There she was, his little hell cat.

“I asked you a question, and I expect an answer, girl, otherwise, I shall leave you strapped up liked this all night, and in a chastity belt to boot, with both your holes plugged and no chance of any relief soon.”

Ren smirked at the way she frantically shook her head.

“Sir, please. I … don’t I get a safeword?”

Tears streamed down Susie’s face, and Ren shook his head in wry amusement.

“How cute that you think this is an option here. Let’s get one thing straight, girl. You’re mine, and I’m going to do to you what I damn well please, and there isn’t a thing you can do to stop me.”

Susie sniffed and gave a reluctant nod.

“Fine, but I hate you.”

The words were brave, but there was no conviction behind them, and when Ren resumed the slow torture of her clit with the end of the crop, Suzie’s feminine mewls of need told him an entirely different story.

“So you say, but your body wants me anyway. Here, taste how wet you are for the man you profess to hate.”

Ren slowly brought the crop up her curves, leaving a wet trail of her arousal behind on her flawless skin, and it was a matter of moments to shove the crop past her lips.

A gasp was his reward, and Ren smiled.

“Lick it clean, and then tell me again how much you hate what I’m doing to you.”

great story
Written by Daria on 19th Apr 2018

I have very few really favorite BDSM authors, Doris O'Connor is one of my favs. His Prize I'd been looking at kept passing over and finally got. So glad that I did I loved it. Things moved pretty fast a young girl that's made a few bad choices didn't have a lot of time to second guess herself. All she had time to do was listen or not listen. In the midst of danger she showed strength I'm not sure many of us would have had, at least at that level. Ren was simply nothing nice, he did his job and did it well. He made know quams about it. He's got a good crew that are just as bad as he is. He was good with the lust them and leave them, but now its a different game and one he wasn't sure he wanted to play. Loved the length of the book its smoothness as it went on just the right amount of detail. The BDSM Elements nicely wrote and played out. Full characters with sass, stubbornness, sex and even a bit of aw... Enjoy!

Major Alpha Alert!!!
Written by Nicole Plummer on 2nd Jul 2016

Ruthless, that’s what Ren is. He’s a killer and he makes no apologies. Susie, stumbles upon Ren doing what he does best, killing. She wants to run, scream, anything but soon realizes this dangerous man…works with her boss. She went to her boss for protection from a violent man and told him she would do what he needed as long as it wasn’t dancing on a pole. So now she’s being whisked away…a Ren’s prize. If she wasn’t so turned on she would be scared as hell. Actually, she is scared. He’s only shown her his anger, killing ability, dominance, and his ownership of her in a matter of a few days. But when the police show up asking her questions will she rat Ren and his men out? Or will she protect the man she has come to love? While the story was well written and the characters strong I was a little put off with how he was when he first took her away. I understood because it was written that she was turned on, but there was a tiny part of my brain that said he was doing it against her will. But I should’ve known that Doris would turn things around to make me go from hating Ren to liking him. While he is no prince charming by any stretch of the imagination, he did sort of redeem himself. I do look forward to more in this series. I’m sure all the men are extreme but I don’t know that anyone can be as extreme as Ren.

HIS PRIZE by Doris O'Connor is a hardboiled story of Susie and Ren. When we first meet Ren, he's about to grab a couple thugs as well as a dancer who has been stealing from the boss. Out walks Susie and suddenly his world is turned upside down. This hard-edged man finds himself falling hopelessly for the new waitress. I really enjoyed the plot of the story. For starters, Susie seems to have made seriously poor choices in men. The ones she's been with have taken advantage of her and one to the point where she lost almost everything. Enter Ren, the head Cleaner. And suddenly, her world is turned upside down in a frightening and powerful way. With Susie's submissive side directly keyed into Ren's dominance, that's where it starts to get good. This story does have some violence although it's only referred to, we aren't actually witness to any of it. It has a strong D/s tone that permeates every page. A bit of kink. And the erotic scenes are downright yummy. The characters are great. Bit of an emotional rollercoaster between Ren and Susie but it all comes together. I admit to becoming a Doris O'Connor fan and this story fits in well with her catalogue. It was a great way to spend a couple evenings and definitely, a story I would read more than once. - See more at: http://erotic.theromancereviews.com/viewbooksreview.php?bookid=21852#sthash.Wsi3Q8QA.dpuf

My Prize
Written by Knotty Girl Reviews on 16th Jun 2016

Doris O’Connor is best known for her hot, romantic, HEA’s with a nice dose of kink thrown in. This is not one of those books. Yes, the very hot, and very kinky drool-worthy Dom/sub dynamic is here, have no fear. But this is a much darker departure from Doris’s usual books. Susie is in the wrong place, wrong time as she stumbles out the door and out into the middle of Ren’s job. He’s there to kill a woman who has stolen from Ren’s boss, who just happens be London’s foremost crime lord. Before she can be a victim herself to the goons with the working girl, she watches as Ren quickly dispatches with them. She begs him not to kill her, and as he crowds her up against the door, getting turned on and realizing he’s turned on, he says…”Relax Pumpkin, if I wanted you dead you’d be toast already. And so begins a story that I never put down as soon as I started it. And all I wanted to do is hate Ren and all of his co-horts, but then he’d go and melt my panties right off and you could’nt help but get excited at knowing this was just book one. Make no mistake…Ren is a bad ass assassin, but the story between him and Susie is a rollercoaster ride of hot and cold with all of the wonderful kink we’ve come to know and love from Doris O’Connor. Sometimes it’s hard to find redeeming qualities in the guys. They can come across as pretty heartless at times. And then…whew! I wanted in that cleaner house myself. Bravo Doris! I’m waiting with baited breath for Ty’s book and the others sound simply too good to pass up!

Dark, gritty and HOT!!
Written by Rhonda on 20th Apr 2016

When Doris said she was going to start a new series called "The Cleaners" I just knew it was going to be dark erotica! This is Ren and Susie's story and it's fabulous! Susie is witness to one of their "clean ups" but instead of killing her, Ren takes her as his prize. He's not a man for sweet words and endearments but something about Susie gets to him. As the story goes along, he tries to reject his feelings for her but it's too late for that because she has buried her way into his heart. When the police show up to question her, will she tell them what she knows about Ren and his men? Or will she take a chance and stay with him? I'm not going to say but you need to get this book. I thoroughly enjoyed it and can't wait for Ty's story as Doris has said he is next!!!
