A dangerous past…Jayla Solonga is a woman on the run. Hiding for the better part of five years from her abusive ex, Jeffrey Alwazir, she’s moved from state to state, keeping watch over her shoulder, never settling down for long. She’s transformed herself from the shy, fearful girl, into a strong, resourceful woman—one who feels safer shutting out the rest of the world. That is, until a handsome stranger crashes his way into her life. With a hope for the future…Alistair Kane is a master at reading others. It’s what makes his security company so successful—the ability to determine a dangerous situation before it happens. It’s also what makes him one of the most sought after Doms in The Cave of Wonders, a BDSM club he’s belonged to for years. When Alistair meets Jayla, he’s immediately infatuated with the mysterious woman. Her quick wit and sassy attitude instantly register the truth for him—she’s a natural, bratty submissive. A thought which has his blood—and other areas—heating. Until her time runs out…Alistair’s firm yet gentle approach is what allows Jayla to tear down her emotional walls, discovering a whole new world through bondage and submission. Desire, pleasure, control…love—emotions Jayla feared she’d never experience again. Now, she’s more determined than ever not to let her past dictate her future. The only thing holding her back is the truth she’s hiding from Alistair: Jeffrey isn’t an ex—he’s her husband. One who will stop at nothing to find her. To own her.To break her.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Since her debut novel, Stealing Beauty, in March 2017, Jessica has proven herself to be the newest up-and-coming (pun fully intended) romance author. Her accolades to date include the 2017 Golden Leaf Award (1st place, Erotic Romance, Stealing Beauty), 2017 Reality Bites Magazine Award (1st place, Best Fairy Tale, Stealing Beauty), 2017 Reality Bites Magazine Award (Finalist, Best Fairy Tale Author), 2018 International Digital Award (1st place, Erotic Novel, Finders Keepers), 2018 Enchanted Anthologies Award (1st Place, Best Fairy Tale, Finders Keepers), 2018 Passionate Plume Award (Finalist, Contemporary Novel, Stealing Beauty) and the 2019 Passionate Plume Award (Best BDSM Novel, Finders Keepers, Finalist – Winners announced July 2019).

She currently lives in New Jersey with her incredibly supportive husband (let’s be honest, he enjoys the *ahem* research *ahem* he gets to assist with) and the love of their life – their pitbull. In her free time, she enjoys watching horror movies, taking baths, playing old-school Nintendo on her computer, and appreciating life.

Jessica draws inspiration from her eclectic background: a licensed mental health therapist, a “sex and romance” consultant, an animal-rights advocate, and an avid lover of books have allowed her to create the realistic world for her characters.

In her Fairy Tales After Dark series, Jessica has combined classic characters with sizzling situations to create a world the reader wishes they were a part of. Alpha males, confident heroines, amazing friendships, and fan-worthy sex combine with enough tension to keep you on the edge of your panty-soaked seat all night long. Discover how each tale is rewritten into today’s world as the characters search for their happy ending – in more ways than one.

Desire… danger… and a whole lotta heat. These aren’t your childhood fairy tales!

Jessica’s other works include a number of other titles ranging from sweet to dark to paranormal romances and more!

    I LOVED this story – I could not put it down once I started. The chemistry between Jayla and Alistair sizzles and I found myself rooting for them to make it as a couple. I enjoyed meeting the other characters in the book - they all seem like a great group of people to hang out with on a Friday night.
    This is the first book I have read by this author and I really enjoyed the writing and storyline. I understand this is the second book in a series, but it is definitely a stand-alone book. I enjoyed this one so much that I plan to read the first one!

    Jessica Collins has written a gut wrenching story about Princess and Ali. They came together because the attraction was too hot to ignore.

    I thoroughly enjoyed Finders Keepers. Jessica Collins takes a modern twist on the fairy tale, Aladdin and shows us the story of Jayla and Alistair.

    I loved how Ms. Collins portrayed Jayla's recovery from her former partner's abuse. There are very real emotions there, and very real reactions. But what I loved most about the book was the back and forth between Jalya and Alistair. All too often, love after abuse stories end up with the abused party simply falling for the love interest without a lot of...resistance. While that does happen in real life (after you've been abused, sometimes the first person to treat you halfway decently seems like the perfect person), it's more realistic to me to have the abused party be a little gun-shy. The banter between the two of them was entertaining, and I loved seeing Jayla's backbone, even through her underlying fears.

    Alistair is incredibly sexy, of course, and if I had a complaint about this book it's that especially in the beginning, he comes across as a bit too perfect. But then again, this is a romance novel, after all. And we all want our love interests to be amazing, right?

    Add in hot sex and some BDSM, and this story has just about everything I look for in a suspenseful romance.

    Overall, I'd rate this as 4.5 stars, only because there was a little bit of slowdown in the narrative in a few places, but I can enthusiastically recommend this book and I will look for more from Jessica Collins.

    Let's start this review by saying that I absolutely LOVED this book!

    One of the first things that hooked me on this book is the banter between the characters. I feel like soooo many authors write super serious characters and forget about the lighter side of life. Having healthy, witty banter between characters is something that I absolutely love in a novel. Jessica does a fantastic job of weaving in the proper amount without it seeming cheesy or over the top.

    Now, let's talk more about the two lead characters. The steam is off the charts! Every scene is amazing and well written. I admire the way the fairy tale we all know and love is featured in this story via the names and personalities of the characters. It gives the story depth and you wonder which way the story will go next. I seriously love this power couple of Jayla and Al!!

    While Jayla's past is extremely traumatic she doesn't let it define her. She has taken steps to become stronger than that which has happened to her. I admire her drive and love that her strength is illustrated in such a profound manner during the most climatic scene in the book. She is a role model of not letting situations define you and that you can be your own hero if you need to be.

    Overall this story is AMAZING!! I highly recommend it and loved every sentence!!!

    This had me turning pages and on the edge of my seat, Jayla was such a strong determined woman who has survived and is still trying to survive a horrible past of abuse from her demented husband and I loved her strength. When she meets Alistair they become each others rock and he doesn't give up and introduces her to a whole new life of trust and it is beyond easy for her but they are perfect together and have a very unique relationship that works for them. I loved the dialogue and the characters were very entertaining with a lot of very HOT scences and a lot of humor to which was perfect.

    Finders Keepers is gripping, dark and sexy and it kept me reading into the night. Jayla is trying to escape her sinister past and in the midst of being on the run she finds herself with a tight knit group of friends that help her reawaken her musical talent. This allows her to learn to trust again but it may also lead the past she’s running from back to her. Jayla is a survivor and someone I enjoyed rooting for and her interactions with Allister were fire! The author does a beautiful job of taking a classic fairy tale and reworking characters into an original, modern and sultry plot for adults. This book is loosely based on Aladdin and the story weaves in a treasure trove of characters you will recognize from some of your other favorite fairy tales. So far, this is my favorite book in the series and I can’t wait for the next tale!

    This is the second book and it was so much better.
    The MC are nice and funny. And there a a couple of really hot scenes.
    The one in the bike wowwww
    And the massage was of the charts. I think I’m in need of one of those.

    I read the book in a couple of hours, is very entertained, a little predictable but good.

    There were a few hole in the plot, like the security in the MC apartment.

    I liked the patience’s and care of Alister with Jayla, he was hot and sweet. I’m not into the bdsm but with a man like that your tempted to tried ;)

    The theme of the book it was a theme that I had read a lot in the past. But this was a more sweet and funny version of it.
