About this ebook

Bestselling author, Juliette N. Banks brings to life another sexy Dufort man in Wicked Praise, a dark billionaire romance novel of the Dufort Dynasty.

Blake Dufort is not new to immense wealth; his entire family are billionaires. His success is new and still stabilizing. Still, he’s powerful, influential, and handsome. Therefore, beautiful naughty women are regularly on the menu.

Agreeing to go on a double date, so his best friend can hook up with his crush, Blake bumps into the mousy-looking girl hours before. Underneath Bella’s glasses, worn tights, and nervous blush, is a woman ready to be broken and praised. Her plump lips and long lashes would look beautiful on her knees in front of him.

When he finds out who she really is, the power play between them in the bedroom blurs, and Blake must navigate a dangerous, corrupt world, and his heart.


Wicked Praise is a standalone book in the steamy Dufort Dynasty series. Part billionaire, part dark romance it will appeal to readers who like steamy books with spice, a strong storyline and characters with witty dialogue, heart-clenching moments, and a delicious happy ever after.

The 2nd to the youngest Dufort cousins has found love when he wasn't expecting it and it is perfect. The best and most re-read part of this book, for me, is when Blake is smashed off his butt in Daniel's office with his older cousins, I just could not stop laughing. Poor Bella, but extremely rich, has been rejected by her birth father and then her only boyfriend in college who she thought was going to propose. Now she thinks Blake is going to reject her outrageous deal to marry her to get her family's legacy back. Blake is not letting her go, no matter what, after all, he is a Dominant Dufort man who gets what he wants and Bella belongs to him. Spicy and funny book that will keep you turning the pages eagerly. Another great Dufort story from Juliette N. Banks!

Bella and Blake's story is heartwarming and frustrating and so very hot! Add in the verbal byplay from the other Duforts and you have a really enjoyable book with a very interesting surprise!

The only reason this got a star was because I couldn't sumit otherwise. I got to the fourth chapter before I got sick of reading about how wet the boring MC got just thinking about the hot guy whose only personality trait was being an a-hole.
