Mark Paulson is a young scientist who has acquired a taste for older men. The fact that his new boss is not only alpha supreme but also tall, dark, and handsome doesn’t help him keep things on a professional basis.

Steven Frost is a self-made millionaire. He has no trouble attracting the opposite sex, but the relationships never seem to last. Steven is bowled over by Mark’s attraction for him. What starts out as a simple affair leads to a dream of forever that becomes a honey-coated reality. But, every great romance has its problems. Will Mark be strong enough in the role of beta to love Steven unconditionally?

Lord and Master 2: Taking Work Home shows us the events that unfolded prior to the epilogue of Lord and Master. Steven is the kind of man that writers seem to develop with ease, but the real world sucks at delivering. He’s handsome, wealthy, successful, brilliant and one hundred percent alpha without being a bully. Mark is a shark in guppy’s clothing. While those around him take his position for granted, he is the perfect balance to Steven in the boardroom and the bedroom. I went back to read the first book and would recommend this to anyone who has not done so. I felt better prepared to enjoy the story and I was able to watch how the two men arrived at the point of the epilogue. This is a wonderful novel for those who have fantasies of a boss, his desk, and a view of the city as their backdrop.
