Author’s Note

Dear Reader,

Despite featuring some of the same characters, this book is nothing like my previous ones. It is eighty percent smut, zero percent conflict. And plot? Don’t know her. There are no serial killers to chase or enemies becoming lovers, just a good ol’ romp in the (giraffe barn’s) hay with a sprinkle of holiday cheer.

Unwrap Me is a Fox Family Crime Syndicate spin-off featuring Roman, a side character you meet in Make Me and see throughout the series. However, Ren, our leading lady, is a completely new character. You absolutely do not need to have read any Fox Family books in order to follow and enjoy this story. Timeline wise, this book overlaps with the end of Dare Me but doesn’t contain any spoilers.

And while I wouldn’t classify this as a dark romance, you can still find all content warnings below. If you have a question that isn’t listed, please do not hesitate to reach out to me at hello@summerotoole.com.

If the characters’ exploration of kink together, particularly free use, inspires your own exploration, please educate yourself with nonfiction resources, as this book is in no way meant to serve as a guide. All kink requires informed consent and prior discussion, but it is especially important for free use because of the large power differential and similarities with CNC.

Stay safe, stay responsible, stay sexy ✌🏻
