Because He Owns Me
Introducing BECAUSE HE OWNS ME, the start of a scorching new series by Hannah Ford, bestselling author of WHAT HE WANTS…
Recent college grad Adriana O’Connor came to New York City to focus on starting her publishing career—not to fall in love. Even if she were looking for her soul mate, Callum Wilder would be the last person she would choose. The sexy and demanding billionaire is completely unattainable – not to mention his penchant for whips, chains, and punishment. Falling for Callum can only guarantee one thing – devastating heartbreak.
Callum Wilder lives his life by one unbreakable rule – never surrender control. But when a chance encounter with Adriana leads to one hot and sexy night, the hold she has on him threatens to break his will. But Callum’s need for control is there for a reason, a devastating reason he’s vowed never to reveal to anyone, ever. And just one slip up could cost him everything…
*A hot and sexy alpha billionaire romance, perfect for fans of Ellie Danes, Cassie Cross, and J.S. Scott*

Very well written and a good story line so far. He wants only one night, she's the type of girl who has never had a one-night stand.
I'm not giving any of these serials 5 stars until they start telling us at book 1 how many episodes we have to deal with before we have resolution. If the books at least came out weekly (like a tv show) I'd be willing to deal, but if it weren't for Kindle Unlimited I wouldn't even bother.

2.5 STARS (more 2 stars than 3)
Este es uno de los libros más raros y cringes que he leído.
Vale que al ser un libro corto las cosas debían pasar rápido pero joder tampoco era plan de que en la noche en la que se conocen ya estén ahí dale que te pego y encima en el lugar donde se encontraban.
Como he dicho ha sido un libro raro, y no es que no me haya gustado pero me pareció un libro un poco precipitado en el qual las cosas pasaban muy rápido y eso ha sido lo que no ha acabado de gustarme. Aún así la historia me ha gustado bastante y voy a seguir leyendo la saga porque me intriga lo que pueda pasar.

42 pages of nothing different here, cliched predictable story with a dose of 50 Shades of Gray. Usual over the top domineering billionaire and the stereotypical stuttering female.
there is another 9 parts to this. Why are 42 pages of something classed as a book?

CAPTIVATING, SEXY AND ENTERTAINING !!!
Title: Because He Owns Me
Series: Because He Owns Me
Designation: Book One, An Alpha Billionaire Multi-Installment Serial, NOT a Standalone Story
Author: Hannah Ford
Edition: Kindle Unlimited
My Rating: FIVE DELIGHTFULLY PROMISING STARS *****
OMG! Because He Owns Me is the riveting new series by Hannah Ford and may I just say - WOW! I began reading Ford's work a few months ago when I discovered her What He Wants Series. She seems to specialize in serialized multi-installment novels with each release being the equivalent of one or two chapters totaling 35 to 45 pages each. I find that I actually enjoy this concept very much as long as the books are released weekly or bi-monthly and hers generally are. Each book is a short quick read and perfect for what I like to call a palette cleanser - something to stop sensory overload, relax my mind and enjoy in between heavy, full-length novels. Ms Ford is exceptionally talented in crafting realistic stories with complex characters and suspenseful plot twists. She also excels at maintaining the momentum of the story throughout the entire book without having to use empty filler dialogue to pace the continuation of the plot. She has quickly become one of my favorite authors. The story is exciting, enchanting, romantic, seductive and arousing. The dialogue is exceptionally well written in the first person with alternating his and her points of view. (My favorite!) The characters are captivating, engaging, intriguing and sexy as sin. Ford skillfully combines these elements into a delightfully entertaining cocktail of adult romance with a sensual twist of BDSM. Hubba! Hubba! This story features recent college graduate Adriana O'Connor who has recently moved from Michigan to New York City to find a job, hopefully in a publishing house and start her new life. Although not unfamiliar with the ways of the world, she is quite naive. And apparently, she is also quite submissive as is quickly discovered by handsome, charismatic billionaire Callum Wilder, CEO and Founder of Wilder Holdings, LLC. Adriana has agreed to meet Nathan, whom she met on a dating app, for a blind date at Whipped, a club located in Midtown Manhattan. Unfortunately, Adriana has no idea that Whipped is a BDSM Light club. Callum is immediately taken with the young beauty sitting alone in the bar but Callum does not date nor does he do relationships. So what does he want with the lovely, innocent Adriana??? He wants one night only of complete possession and mind-blowing sex! What??? Yep, and what arrogant and self assured Callum Wilder wants, he pursues and conquers - for one night only, of course! Oh my! But will he be able to conquer the guileless Adriana??? Or will she turn down his unabashed invitation??? Hmmm.....I wonder??? Inexperienced Adriana may soon find herself in way over her head and swimming with sharks! Oh my gracious! I can hardly wait for the next installment! Deliciously seductive, seriously sexy, completely captivating and wonderfully entertaining! What more could you ask of a great read? Not a darn thing!!! This promises to be another satisfying and wildly entertaining ride!

Good read story gets interesting as you go on. Would recommend for a quick read. Great start to a new series, can't wait to see how the story progress. Very well written good storyline so far. I just think the author makes these too short, but they are good and keep you wanting more.

Huh ok this seems a Lot like 50 shades. Average girl, a wealthy perfect guy who is into bdsm and offers her one night sex contract.
Very short, all of the series could be made into one book. Ending is just cut, it seems forced so it could be split into more books.

Finally.....I have been searching for a book that resembles 5o shades of Grey. Its hot! Its crazy! Its steamy as hell. I was so dang happy I found this book.
Adriana O’Connor is just sitting in a bar minding her own business not knowing shes being stalked by some extremely hot prey.
Callum Wilder is a man on a mission. He likes to love'm and leave'm. He has a rule that he can only spend one night with a woman. He never breaks that rule.....until now.
Callum is a bazillionaire and Adriana is a poor struggling college graduate. He wines her, and dines her, and then he propositions her with a contract. Shit gets wild.
I can not wait to read the next book. My only complaint is the books are very short so you pay 2.99 per section/book. BUT I DON'T CARE!!!!! I gotta know what happens next.
If you like smut, and plenty of it, this book is for you. If you like BDSM or just all around rough sex this book is for you!!! If you like being shoved up against a wall and dominated....this book is EXACTLY wha t your looking for.

Love the series. I think Hannah Ford makes these stories too short, but they are interesting and keep you wanting to read more. Adriana is supposed to meet a blind date at the Whipped Club, but she is stood up. Callum Wilder, alpha billionaire, is at the same club to decide if he wants to buy the club. He notices Adriana, and when she decides to leave, he approaches her. He asks her if she knows what type of club she is in and of course she does not, but she tries to pretend that she does. Callum propositions Adriana to meet him in the back room, but Callum has a one time only rule when he is with a woman. Look forward to reading the books in this series on Callum and Adriana.

So come and begin this journey with Callum as I am and sink yourself within the pages of delicious

Great Start
I hope that the author stays with the Kindle free read if this is going to be a long series. I am quite disappointed that the authors are now charging for what equals out to a cheaper of a book. So this books starts out promising so I will try the next.

Short
This book was short and since it is a new series, I would wait a little bit to start until more are available.

What does he mean by owning her
Does he need her to be his for a night and then he wants to leave her and not be with her again?
