Everdene by Melanie Hoskin

Nicknamed the 'Icy Bitch', Catherine Everdene is an independent career woman who wins over and dominates the boardroom using her flirtatious sparkle. Used to being in control, that all changes when she comes face to face with her new employee, Dillon Oak, in the London office. Her seduction of his mind goes astray when his presence begins to penetrate the cracks in her closely-guarded heart, and she escapes to New York, where her love life really starts to become complicated. Her dominating and mischievous behaviour captures the attention of Bill Boldwood, an obsessive billionaire CEO with secret fetishes, and charming, but manipulative, alpha-male lawyer, Troy Selgent. Boldwood is willing to risk everything in the pursuit of her affections, while Troy thinks nothing of abandoning his former submissive in order to rise to the challenge of winning over Catherine.

Who will eventually win her heart? More to the point, who will survive to win her heart?

Set in modern day London, New York and the Dorset countryside, Everdene is a novel based on the plotline and characters from Thomas Hardy's original love story, Far from the Madding Crowd. This contemporary version, re-told with erotic undertones of domination & submission, is an emotional journey of love, heartbreak, death and friendship.
