Why read it?
1 author picked The Initiation as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I could not put this book down. Already a favorite author of mine, Nikki Sloane surprised me with this sensual fairytale of a novel. It’s both inventive and twisted, deftly handling the love triangle as well as the power dynamics. Not only does Sloane knock the kink out of the park in this one, she also conveys all the fantasy of the uber-rich life without missing a thing.
From Laurelin's list on dirty filthy rich men.
