About this listen
Dorian Vidales left his cushy but constrictive life on Earth behind to become the star femme Dom at a space station brothel. Convinced that love makes people stupid and will ruin everything he’s worked so hard for, Dorian remains happily married to his career. But when Laith Ritter, a gorgeous trans man, is hired at the brothel and Dorian gets roped into training him as a sub, he’ll find it hard to follow his own “don’t get attached” rule.
At first, having a bratty, inexperienced live-in sub is more chaos than he expects. But as their relationship becomes more and more serious, Dorian realizes this is what was missing in his otherwise glamorous life.
But amidst the glitz and glamour of the space station—a haven for people otherwise disenfranchised by Earth’s Purity Laws—trouble is brewing. When a pro-Purity politician gains power and begins pushing her political agenda, Dorian and the man he’s falling in love with will be thrust into a dangerous fight to keep the station free. The trials they face will test their burgeoning romance and change their lives forever.
The Orchid and the Lion is the first book in a kinky, sensual series about love, self-acceptance, and fighting for what you believe in.

Story
My death day is sacred. I spend it the same way I wish I could spend every day: alone in my isolated cabin, with a glass of wine in one hand and a book in the other. But when the scent of human blood shatters my solitude, I find James—unflappable, undeniably gorgeous, and utterly unafraid of me. He makes my blood boil and he stirs desires dormant for over a century. I must protect him, even if it costs me everything.

I want her dead. Everything within me howls to destroy that pretty little mortal so that I can claim her deliciously tarnished soul. When I’m done with her, she will be writhing underneath me, sinning like a bad little mortal should. But no matter how much I long to kill her now, I must wait until she completes the Death Trials my father, The Devil, challenged her to win. Only then will she claim the title of ‘Deaths New Pet’, and I become free to do whatever the hell I want with her.

Yeah, so I'm Kyle and I'm kind of screwed. Here's the deal: I work as an assistant to a Hollywood producer. My boss, Mr. Swoon, who's like the hottest thing since Matt Bomer—I'm totally in love with him, but he doesn't know it yet. And it gets worse. I ran across his profile on the gay dating site, Humper dot com and I sort of created this secret profile. We've been chatting for months and we've totally clicked. My boss calls me his soul mate. Except he doesn't know it's really me.
