ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date September 6, 2016
Cora has an amazing sex life. She’s beautiful, daring, and the most popular submissive in Hayven. Too bad none of it’s real…
IT specialist Cora Benning has figured out the key to her formerly disastrous love life—make it virtual. In the online world of Hayven, she’s free of her geek girl image and can indulge her most private fantasies with a sexy, mysterious master without anyone in her life discovering her secrets. Until her information is hacked and she finds herself working to fix the breach under two very powerful men—one who seems all too familiar…
Best friends and business partners Ren Muroya and Hayes Fox were once revered dominants. Then Hayes was wrongfully sent to prison and everything changed. Ren wants to get back to who they were. Hayes can’t risk it. But when they discover the new IT specialist is their online fascination, and that she’s never felt a dominant’s touch, the temptation to turn virtual into reality becomes all too great
•••••••
REVIEW: LOVING YOU EASY is the ninth full length installment in Roni Loren’s contemporary, adult LOVING ON THE EDGE erotic, BDSM, romance series. This is IT specialist Coraline Benning, and business partners Ren Muroya and Hayes Fox’s story line. LOVING YOU EASY can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty.
NOTE: Loving You Easy contains MM, MF, MFM scenes of graphic sexual imagery and language including ménage, anal and oral sex, as well as some spanking and light bondage play.
Told from several third person points of view LOVING YOU EASY focuses on the search for an internet stalker. Cora Benning likes to play in the online sexual, fantasy world known as Hayven, and soon discovers that her personal information has been hacked, and someone has targeted Cora in the real world. As an IT hacker, our heroine soon ferrets out some information about the person responsible, and heads over to FoxRen media to confront the owners about a possible breach to their gaming system. What Cora soon discovers is that Ren Muroya and Hayes Fox are two sexual dominants who take a special interest in Cora’s plight, an interest that will extend to a relationship both at work and at play. Ren will offer Cora a job at FoxRen media, and take their partnership up to the next level. What ensues is the building relationship between Cora, Ren and Hayes, and the search for a person who has targeted our trio in a dark game of betrayal and revenge.
The relationship between Cora, Ren and Hayes is highly sexual. Both Ren and Hayes are sexual dominants but Hayes has pulled back from the lifestyle following a prison sentence for a crime he did not commit. Fearful of other people’s reactions to the accusations, Hayes continues to pull away from his best friend Ren, not realizing that Ren and Cora, are the two people he needs the most. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic, graphic and provocative. The dominance and submissive elements are mostly vanilla and light. The character building reveals a little bit about the backgrounds, the history and events leading to present day circumstances.
The world building focuses on a friendship that turns to love when Ren reveals that he has loved his best friend for most of his life. Cora’s introduction into the world of dominance and submission is imaginative and intoxicating but playful and calm. Cora soon discovers that her online kinky side traverses easily into the real world.
LOVING YOU EASY is a passionate story line focusing on a relationship that is both playful and energetic, healing and dynamic. The premise is intriguing and decadent; the characters are spirited and energetic; the romance is encouraging and seductive. Roni Loren easily invites the reader into her impassioned world of Loving on the Edge.

He brows dipped. “Don’t what?”
“Try to make me feel better. Give me a boost or whatever. Because, seriously, I don’t need your pity.”
He laughed. This sharp bark of a thing that echoed through the empty parking lot. “Pity? Are you kidding?”
Her teeth clamped together, anger rising. “You—”
But he moved so fast it made the rest snag in her throat. Both of his hands landed on the car behind her, caging her in and bringing his face close to hers. “Ready for completely and wholeheartedly inappropriate?”
He wasn’t touching her anywhere but he may as well have pressed his entire body against her for the way her blood went hot. She couldn’t speak. Couldn’t move. All she could see were those dark eyes and inhale the scent of him, spicy food and man.
“I reeled myself in tonight. I asked you to dinner for selfish reasons. But once we were there and got to talking, I had a crisis of conscience. You’re working with me. You’ve been through hell this week. You didn’t need me complicating that. I forced myself to play by the rules. I made myself be good.” He leaned close to her ear, his breath coasting along her neck. “But don’t think for one second that I didn’t want to talk you into my bed tonight, that I didn’t want to show you that side of myself you saw in the hallway, and that I haven’t been thinking exactly how good it would feel to have you beneath me.”
All ability to breathe ceased inside her, her body going still as stone and melty as lava.
“So you can accuse me of a lot of things, Cora. Crossing lines. Being selfish. Acting inappropriately. Because I’m doing all of those things right now. But one thing you can’t accuse me of is pity.” He pushed off the car, freeing her from the invisible hold, and took a step back. “I’ll see you on Monday. And if you decide not to show up anymore because of this, I’ll make sure you’re paid through the next two weeks.”
He turned and strode toward his car, leaving her standing there trembling and breathing hard and… way too turned on.
She wet her lips, a surge of bravery welling in her. “You never told me your breaking-the-law story.”
The words rang through the distance between them, and she thought he might keep walking, but he stopped and turned around. “We’ll need to schedule a seven-course meal to get through all of that.”
“That long of a list, huh?”
His mouth kicked up at the corner. All bad boy and charm. “Yep, you game?”
She swallowed past the dryness in her throat, knowing what he was asking was about way more than a dinner. She was so damn far off the reservation. “I might be…”
His gaze heated, slid over her with open appreciation. “It’s a date, then. Goodnight, hallway girl.”
Roni wrote her first romance novel at age fifteen when she discovered writing about boys was way easier than actually talking to them. Since then, her flirting skills haven’t improved, but she likes to think her storytelling ability has. Though she’ll forever be a New Orleans girl at heart, she now lives in Dallas with her husband and son.
If she’s not working on her latest sexy story, you can find her reading, watching reality television, or indulging in her unhealthy addiction to rockstars, er, rock concerts. Yeah, that’s it. She is the National Bestselling Author of The Loving on the Edge series from Berkley Heat.
