Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Poppy Flynn was born in Buckinghamshire, UK and moved to Wales at eight years old with parents who wanted to live the 'self-sufficiency' lifestyle.

Today she still lives in rural Wales and is married with six children.

Poppy's love of reading and writing stemmed from her parents’ encouragement and the fact that they didn't have a television in the house.

"When you're surrounded by fields, cows and sheep, no neighbours, no TV and the closest tiny village is four miles away, there's a certain limit to your options, but with books your adventures and your horizons are endless."

    Lucy is chosen the winner of an all-inclusive island vacation after being entered by her sister for the prize. Two weeks in paradise, and the only catch is a TV interview about her time there. After a couple of days there, Lucy wanders over to the kink club side of the island, where she meets Ash. Sparks immediately fly, the likes of which neither has encountered. Both are wary of relationships after failed marriages, and knowing they are on borrowed time, decide to take advantage of the time they have together. When she leaves for home, not having had the chance to exchange contact information, both fear it is the end of what was a beautiful, if brief, interlude.
    This is a wonderfully written book, with two deeply damaged main characters who find each other once, and then again when all hope seems lost. Their HEA is lovely, and the next book in the series is set up nicely. I thoroughly enjoyed this story, and cannot wait for the next book.

    I received an advance review copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

    This is the first book I read by Poppy Flynn. It took reading a few chapters before I started to get involved in the story. I thought the story line was unique and the characters well written, realistic, and likeable. The struggles that both Ash and Lucy went through with their first marriages were heartfelt and they both truly deserve a happy future. If you enjoy reading a light BDSM with a HEA this is a recommended read.

    I greatly enjoyed this first book in a new series for Poppy Flynn. We start with a background for both Lucy and Ash that is pretty sad. Ash loses his wife and daughter to a car crash after having an argument with his wife and Lucy's husband files for divorce while she is in the hospital recovering from her third miscarriage.

    We move to the present when Lucy wins a vacation at the resort that Ash and his friends have built on a private island. Lucy wanders in to part of the resort that she wasn't meant to see, a private BDSM club that is run by RACK (risk aware consensual kink). She is shocked, but intrigued. Ash volunteers to be her guide and the two of them find themselves falling for each other. Of course, there are obstacles to overcome, but there is a HEA for them. The author also clues us in to the next several novels in the series.

    I read this through Kindle Unlimited

    This is the first story in a new series that is shaping up to be as good and varied as Club Risque - with some characters even having a tiny appearance. The setting is a tropical island and the cast of characters are the investors in the enterprise. First is Ash, a retired financial whiz, who is basically hiding from the world in order to lick his wounds after some devastating blows. When he meets Lucy, who is no stranger to being kicked in the butt by life, the attraction is there from the beginning. She is completely new to the lifestyle but curious. It is that combination that calls out his DOM instincts and their scenes as he introduces her to his world are super sensual and moving. It was great to see them get a truly happy end that is also the beginning of the next book, featuring Lucy's sister. Fantastic start and I look forward to the contination of the series!

    I received a copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. The first book in the new Masters of Paradise series a book that once I started I was not putting down until I was finished. A well written story with a very good storyline that was well worth reading. I want to read the next book.

    I enjoyed this story. The plot was interesting. The BDSM is not hard core and is a good intro for folks dipping their toes into this genre.
    Lucy and Ash are two people who are trying to recover from the betrayal of their exes. Ash is a Dom and Lucy is vanilla. However, an oversight in Lucy's all inclusive stay at the island brings her to the BDSM club Iniquity where Ash has to do damage control. Though they know their relationship cannot go beyond her 2 week stay, their hearts didn't get the message.
    There is an HEA.
    My only complaint is all of the typos. Hopefully, this will improve as the author continues the series and gets an editor or at the very least a proof reader.

    OMG! This was such and awesome book in my opinion. This is the first I'm reading from this author and I so want to read more. I loved this story between Ash and Lucy. The characters were so realistic and you could really feel the pain that they both experienced in previous relationships. A chance meeting at the club was really what they both needed to break out of their current rut. It had light BDSM elements as Lucy was new to the scene. It was written very tastefully and it wont overwhelm you - even if you are new to reading BDSM. I highly recommend reading this!!!

    Temptation is the first in a new series from author Poppy Flynn. It is a light story that touches on the tragedies the hero and heroine have went through before they met on a tropical island resort that has its own secret temptations.
    While this story includes BDSM, heartbreaking loss, deception, sow, humor, it does have a HEA and the unknown of another story in the next book in the series.
    It’s is not a heavy BDSM theme, it touches on so,w of the topics. This author does have the promise to become a very talented story teller as she progresses in this genre.

    So good! Even though I knew it would be a HEA, I was worried up until near the end that it wouldn't happen! Now I need to reread it to get all the bits I missed when I was rushing through to make sure Lucy and Ash would be OK...

    This is a really interesting read. I loved both sad and lost Ash and hurt Lucy. Their connection is electric. The storyline brings the reader into the world of BDSM as we are educated along with Lucy. All the characters are well done, real and rounded. I am now going to look for the next one in this enthralling and enjoyable series. And am facing another night of lost sleep.

    I always look out for more books that base BDSM as a premise...this story has a whole Island. The principal characters both have suffered heartache, so finding new love takes them on a journey of discovery. A must read.
