This is what you've been waiting on ... the final books of Simone Leigh's "Buying the Virgin" series. It's thrilling, passionate, combustible, heart-wrenching, and thrilling all in one set. If you've read all the books up to this point, you're like me, already hooked. This is what you have to look forward to. I'm confident you'll love it as much as I have.

Book 17 THE VIRGIN AND THE MASTERS (PART 1)
After weeks of not seeing each other, James and Michael surprised Charlotte with a visit to her shared housing along with their plans for the weekend. James is co-director with Richard on his City Renovation Project while Michael is trying to renovate the large home they bought up in the mountains, trying to get part of it livable in order to welcome Charlotte home for the Christmas holidays. Will Stanton would like to speak further with Charlotte concerning her time at Blessingmoors as they are trying to get more convictions since they believe the trafficking ring is still active. Michael is still a bit insecure, knowing Charlotte adores James but he wants her love as well. The scenes, as always are tender, hot, passionate, and intense. The underlying mystery and suspense of evil weighs in and kept my heart hammering. I can't wait for more.

Book 18. THE VIRGIN AND THE MASTERS (PART 2)
It doesn't appear that Detective Corby is what he claims to be and why instead of him questioning Charlotte about Blessingmoors is he going on about James Alexander buying her at auction? Just exactly what is he trying to pin on James? Will Stanton is invited to dinner at Richard and Elizabeth's house along with James, Michael, and of course, Charlotte so Will can personally clear up any misunderstandings and get the much-needed information. During Will's and Charlotte's question and answer about Blessingmoors, Will acknowledges that both cellars were filled in when the building was destroyed. Charlotte corrects that supposition and informs him there were three! Do you remember Daniel from a previous play scene? Hmm, he's making himself known again and becoming quite a pest. Beth, acknowledging that Charlotte needs female friends with all that's going on at home, school, and work has asked Charlotte to accompany herself and some friends on a shopping trip. Elizabeth doesn't return from their shopping trip. As Richard contacts, Will Stanton and pictures are brought for Charlotte to review it becomes clear Elizabeth was mistaken for Charlotte. My heart is racing between the mystery of the kidnapping and the hot and heavy scenes between our triad. I have to say, it was beautiful to finally see the softer side of James. I feel like the tension is steadily building and is about to come to a head. I can't wait for the next part.

Book 19. THE VIRGIN AND THE MASTERS (PART 3)
Part 3 of "The Virgin and the Masters" picks up exactly where part 2 ended. Charlotte has been sent home from the Haswell building by James and Richard in order to keep her safe. She may be James' submissive but she had no problem going head to head with these three men claiming Beth was her friend as well but in the end, had no choice but to leave. Little good it does them as they were attacked by a number of armed men. Michael becomes the working hero while James becomes the man of the hour with the calvary in tow. Once entrenched in the Haswell building penthouse these three men seem to think they can keep Charlotte in an ivory tower and sealed off from everything. Charlotte has other plans. Michael, as hard as he could, tried to convince James and Richard that Charlotte was not like Beth but would take things into her own hands if they didn't allow her to help locate her friend. And in Charlotte's mind, not only does she need to find Beth because it was her these men were after but she owes Richard a debt she intends to pay. This is such a fast-paced, adrenaline-filled storyline that even the scenes with James can't relieve the pressure or anxiety. Now what?

Book 20. THE VIRGIN AND THE MASTERS (PART 4)
Tension and anxiety ramp up. Klempner is once again in the picture and has revealed information about Charlotte's mother. Beth has been rescued but Charlotte is still on the run. Finding a way to contact James and Michael she leaves only small messages and a warning not to come to her or tell ANYONE else but Richard. After days of cryptic messages, Charlotte makes it back to the Haswell building only to find Michael not speaking to her at all and when he does, it's totally out of character. Seems like things have gone from the frying pan into the fire … literally. Sweet bejeebers, my heart is racing!

Book 21 THE VIRGIN AND THE MASTERS (PART 5)
Trying to put the pieces of the puzzle together as James, Michael, Charlotte, Richard, and Beth are all tucked away at a hotel until this can be solved. Will Stanton has Charlotte and Beth going through hundreds of pictures again trying to see if they can recognize anyone that is a known associate of Klempner. Just as Charlotte recognizes a face on the computer screen Beth answers a knock on the hotel room door thinking it's room service. Michael comes out of the shower to the appearance of a struggle, the door to the room ajar, and a sweet chemical smell in the air. Yep, both women are missing. Finally finding the location of the women, James, Michael, and Richard arrive at the farmhouse before the police and manage to stop the assault of eight men on the two women only for James to wind up being shot! Oh, Ms. Leigh, you're killing me here! It's the wee hours of the morning and I have one more book to see how this winds down. And then I'm expected to sleep?!?!? I don't foresee that happening anytime soon! But, just so you know, I think you're fabulous in your wickedness.

Book 22 THE VIRGIN AND THE MASTERS (PART 6)
James is in the hospital and Charlotte is beside herself. He's come that close to dying! It's a long road to recovery and, let's face it, James is not a patient or docile man so he isn't the easiest of patients. Work on the hotel/spa is continuing as well as additions to their home to make it more secure. Klempner is in jail and has agreed to plead guilty if his requirements are met. That's certainly something to think about. The wedding is discussed in more than just an abstract thought during a conversation. This book wrapped up most of the questions and brought things full circle. Everything but Klempner, but I'm sure those details are for another day … at least, I hope so. I don't think I'm ready to let go of this triad quite yet.

This 4th box set continues the story of Charlotte, her master James and lover Michael, and their friends, Richard and his wife Beth. These six books are an exciting thrill-ride, and really ramp up the suspense, danger, thrills, and chills of Charlotte's story. Her past comes to the forefront and puts her, as well as her lovers and friends, in mortal danger. There are attacks, kidnaping, surprises, and twists. Since Simone's books always end in cliffhangers, it was great to have six books together, so you don't have worry about stopping until the last book in the set (which may or may not have a cliffhanger end).😏 It is essential to have read the first three boxsets (or the individual books) to know the characters and what is going on. It also helps to have read the author's other series. There is still more to come and I can't wait.

One point of difference in this box set is that it is now a full novel. You would, of course, have noted at the top of the Amazon blurb that it is 306 pages long. This is not a typo error.
Another point of note is that, unlike the previous box sets, is that the story is now written through the POV of Charlotte, Michael and Elizabeth (Beth). POVs of James or Richard are not included within the story, but they remain major characters. This may put you of kilter every now and then, but it not too much.
This box set continues the story of the sexual development of Charlotte, however, it now establishes her as an individual who is also capable of making her own decisions in her life and her sexual choice not to waver her desire for both lovers. It also provides, in much greater detail, the past that she has hidden both within herself and from all others.
Unfortunately, the demons of the past have now risen physically, in an attempt/s to prevent her from disclosing the secrets to the authorities. As a result, this book now presents a violent action and thriller/suspense aspect of the storyline. Quite a few twists and turns, as well, that should keep you interested.
Don't worry though, there's still lots of hot and steamy sex scenes, they're simply separated a bit within the story.
This box sets also answers a lot of questions I had had while reading 'Kirsties Tale' and 'Bought by the Billionaire'.
Another great box set. Personally, I love (or should that be loved? I hope there's some form of continuation somehow.) this series. To lovers of erotica, I highly recommend it.

This is the 4th box set in the series and let me tell you, it does not disappoint! First off, the books are now shown in e different points of view (Charlotte, Michael, and Beth). This is different than the other three box sets and makes it for a slightly different read. It's nice to get into the other character's minds.
Secondly, this set continues the hot and steamy scenes with Charlotte, James, and Michael. Charlotte has her favorite things to do with her two favorite men...more soft and tender with Michael, more domineering with James. And this set also changes that up some as we see some more domineering moments from Michael and some more tender moments with James. But no matter who is doing what, the scenes are still hot hot hot.
Lastly, we get some very intense story lines here, as the story of Charlotte's past continues as she is asked to testify against the men she knows from childhood at Blessingmoors. This leads to a kidnapping, and others lives being put in danger. The set is action packed and keeps you wondering what will happen next. Some of the questions I had in my mind from the last set were answered, and others have now come up.
This set was probably my favorite of the whole set as I do love the action interspersed with the steamy.

In this box set Simone has combined 3 books all from the men's POV. The first book is mostly from her Master, James' POV, the second from her boss Richard and the third book has a lot about Charlotte's teenage and happy years on the farm.
Triad is where we are introduced to many of the evil people in Charlotte's childhood and the horrors she was exposed to in the children's home. This book answers many questions from her past.
In Alphas we see even more of her horrible childhood. After learning what Charlotte has overcome Richard's admiration for her grows particularly when she agrees to testify against the evil men from Blessingmoorsand and what happenned there. He realizes he wants these three people as friends. This one ends with a cliff-hanger.
While Guardians shows the only happy time in Charlotte's life we again meet up with those viscious people from her past that are still watching over her and trying to interfere in her present life.
Ms Leigh has turned and erotic romance into a suspenseful thriller.

Charlotte is back at university, when James and Micheal come to see her due to the house going through so they celebrate and they celebrate the only way they know how.

Micheal is working hard to try and get the house ready for when Charlotte gets back from university, as he wants her to have a home.

When Charlotte gets back early Micheal is working hard chopping wood, Micheal is so worried as the house is not done like it he wanted and is worried she will not like it.

Charlotte's past does not want to let her be and she keeps getting dragged back into the past.

When Beth gets taken instead Charlotte will do whatever she has to do to get her back, even if that means doing things James and Michael will not like.

When Charlotte thinks they're safe it turns out they're not and someone is giving info to the people after Charlotte, when they are taken again. Can they get out ok or will it all go wrong and Charlotte loses it all.

Ahhhhh

Once again Simone Leigh pulls off the impossible!!! She takes a tough life and an impossible threesome and makes it flow into once cohesive unit!!!! This last book is by far the best! But there are so many cliff hangers that I can wait to read the rest of her series just so I can find out! For example does charlotte ever find her mother? What actually is the connection between her and Beth? Do they find this out before or after the wedding? The only downfall I could say is I wish Ms Leigh had a suggested reading order that popped up before the start of each series. Now that I have finished this one I need to go back and read bought by the billionaire so I can figure out some of the confusion about Richard and Beth

This is the fourth box set in this series. I highly suggest reading the previous books in this series to help your enhancement of the characters. This is an author that I never hesitate to pick up. This author's books are steamy and hard to put down. I enjoy her writing skills that make the characters come to life on each page. They are connectable and kept you coming back for more. In this box set you will find books seventeen to twenty-two. You don't want to miss what happens next with this series. Charlotte thinks her past is behind her but is it really? There are consequences for everything you do as she is about to find out. I really enjoyed this box set and I highly recommend this book and this author.

Here in this Buying The Virgin boxset 4 we have SO MUCH going on. We have the usual VERY HOT relations between Charlotte/James & Michael.
Then things turn drastically NOT JUST for the 3 of them but also for Beth & Richard.
Charlotte's (Jennifer) past life returns to her like a steam train, where one of the men Klempner who was involved in the involvement of the kids from the home where Charlotte spent her younger years & he hears that she's resurfaced & is able to help put down the offenders & he wants to STOP here. So here in this non stopping adventure we see her & Beth become closer & discover more about each other & what a STRONG independent woman She is. A MUST read....

Storyline is acceptable.

I received the first set of books of this series for free in exchange for an honest review. When you get those you are warned they may have typos ect. They are not polished finished copies therefore I do not rate those as harshly. The first set had enough going for it that I purchased the rest of this series at full cost. What I found was they are poorly edited and poorly proofread therefore until these problems are corrected I can not give a higher rating. These books should not even be sold as they are now!

This box set continues the story Charlotte now it establishes her as an individual who is continuing her sexual development but is also capable of making her own decisions in her life,and her desire for both of her lovers.
Unfortunately, her past demons have returned and attempt's to prevent her from sharing her secrets with the authorities. This book has more thriller and suspense filled action to the storyline with quite a few twists and turns. as well, that should keep you interested. There's lots of hot and steamy sex scenes within the storyline.

Wow... we're back with Charlotte, her Master 'James' and Golden lover Michael. Just when they thought they could concentrate on their future, Charlotte's past comes back to haunt them. There's plenty of suspense, twists, turns, laughter, heartache, tear-jerking moments, sizzling chemistry and so much more! You'll find yourself on the edge of your seat plenty of times throughout this box set. When some hard truths come to light, how will our dynamic trio deal with everything?...

This is more of Charlotte, James, and Michael's story. The triad is still learning and evolving into the relationship. There are things that are being exposed. This is just such an awesome series. It's like an addition. I have to know, I have to experience, and I have to see what will happen next. Fabulous series.

I just LOVE this series! There is always so much steam, fun, mystery and intrigue. I adore Charlotte with her Master and Golder Lover as the chemistry between them never wanes but they obviously adore each other so much. Add in Beth and Richard, and the mystery surrounding Charlotte's past. It's such an entertaining boxset and I can't wait to read more!.

Simone Leigh continues developing Charlotte, James, and Michael’s storyline into an emotional, action-packed, thrilling adventure. Box set 4 is packed full of twists and turns you never imagined were around the next page. It’s engaging while still maintaining all the fun Michael and her Master have with sharing Charlotte. Charlotte shows her true grit, her spine of steel, and reminds them all that her submission is for the bedroom only.

A very well written box set with a BDSM theme that is well handled and described. This box set contains the first six parts and they have a lot to them. There is drama, hotness, emotions and twists.

The characters are likeable and well described. Very erotic scenes that are amazingly described.

This box set gives us more story involving Beth and Richard. Charlotte is developing more friendship with Beth, and she’s furthering her university studies with Richard’s company. While heading towards the holidays, Charlotte’s past is emerging. James and Michael have to find a way to handle strong willed Charlotte, especially when chaos erupts!
