Without Armor

Victoria Dalton is a brilliant litigator who's perfected the art of performance. In the courtroom, in the boardroom, at every firm gala, she knows exactly how to present herself to get what she wants. But behind closed doors, she's exhausted by the careful construction of her own image.Sloane Merchant is a dominant who runs an intimate BDSM studio and knows the power of vulnerability. When she meets Victoria at a party, she recognizes something in her: a woman aching to drop her defenses. What begins as an exploration of surrender becomes something neither of them expected-a genuine connection that demands authenticity from both of them.But their worlds don't mix. Victoria's prestigious law firm sees Sloane's lifestyle as a liability. Her career path-partnership, prestige, the golden future she's worked toward-suddenly feels fragile. Sloane's thriving practice faces its own reckoning when clients learn about her relationship with Victoria. Both women face a choice: protect themselves and what they've built, or risk everything for something real.Without Armor is a story about power, vulnerability, and what it costs to stop performing for an audience and start building a life with someone who sees you completely. It's for readers who believe that true intimacy requires courage, and that love is most fierce when it's most honest.
