The last thing I expected to find in my dossier was sexy stockings, a plane voucher to London and an invitation to dance at a gentleman’s club. I’m a quiet museum curator for God’s sake. No way, no how am I going to slide down a pole for a bunch of over privileged, narcissistic men—until I see Sean Fraser, my childhood crush, enter the establishment. Since I’m no longer that overweight teen with braces and mousey hair, there is no way he’ll recognize me. Hmmm… Maybe I’ll give him a fake name—and a private dance. That ought to make him finally notice me, right?
What the hell is Kennedy Lane doing sliding down a pole in a private Gentlemen’s club? I’m not sure, and while I know she’s hands off, I want her. I’ve always wanted her. She might have been too young for me back in the day. Now, not so much. Hands off leads to hands on after a private dance, and while Kennedy spends the weekend pretending to be someone she isn’t, I know full well who she is. And I’m not quite ready to let her hang up her stockings when the show is over.
"Cathryn Fox is one of my go to authors for sexy romance. Her books always make my heart flutter and my pulse race." - #1 NYT bestselling author Lauren Blakely
"Sean is an alpha both in and out of the bedroom and his commanding ways are seductive. Overall, this is an erotic romance with a happily ever." - LTJ, book reviewer, BN.
"Oh. My. God. This book was smoking hot. I'm literally still sitting here fanning my face and I finished it 20 minutes ago. It was short, sexy, and to the point, and I appreciate that in an erotic romance. It's apparently the 2nd book in a series, but it's the first one I've read, and I didn't feel I was missing anything. Though, book 1, Private Reserve, is definitely on my TBR list now!" - Kindle Loving Mom
"I loved this story. I felt like I completely was able to connect with both the Hero and the Heroine even in these short pages. In the past I read this author's Hands On series and I fell in love with it. This most definitely is an author that I know ahead of time that I will enjoy. So, ladies, turn those ceiling fans on high, and settle in. This is one you will be sure to enjoy." - CarolDH reviewer BN.
"Once again Ms. Fox has created a gem of story, House Rules is tantalizing, naughty, and oh so delectable... I gobbled it up it one sitting!! The moment these two wandered onto the page I couldn't help but get wrapped up into their enticing story, I was instantly addicted and set out on a mad dash to devour every word. They took me on quite the spicy little adventure and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it! Highly recommend this one, it's sure to leave you completely satisfied." - Reds Romance Reviews
"Holy Hotness!!!! I thought it would be fun. I thought it would be cute. I never expected to need to buy batteries...okay, that's a lie. I didn't go out and buy batteries. I have plenty here at home. Grab your partner, partners, toys, whatever because you will need an outlet for this build up!" - Mom at home.
"As always Cathryn Fox delivers with her intricate storyline, erotica sex scenes, and endless wit. I haven't read a Fox story to date that I didn't like and House Rules just adds to that long list." - ArecRain
House Rules is a short, hot as heck story by Cathryn Fox.
As far back as she can remember, Kennedy Lane has had a crush on the older brother of her best friend, Olivia, Sean Fraser. He was three years older than she and Olivia and she was awkward and shy and most definitely not cool enough for the l ...more
Short and sweet - Straight up erotica. Hot as heck with a decent story too! LOL
This is one fun and spicy hot read. Perfect for a quick hour or two of light reading - heavy on the spice. Great story without a lot of fluff. Just get down and dirty. I love it! Cathryn Fox writes great steam!

Author: Cathryn Fox
4 unexpected stars
My biggest regret after i read this book by Cathryn Fox was not having had read the first book in the series before hand. Although it was a short read, one that took me a couple of hours to finish, it didn't feel like one. It was very w ...more
If anyone can write hot smoking sex it's Cathryn and she's done it once again with this book.
Holy hell this book. It may be short but it packs a huge punch.
Kennedy is on her way to London for a wild weekend because of a pact she's made several years ago with her girlfriends. The girls drew names an ...more
My review cross-posted from Wit and Sin: http://witandsin.blogspot.com/2017/05...
Two years ago, Kennedy and her friends put their names in a hat, each friend having to give the person they picked a trip where their most explicit fantasies could be explored. That’s how quiet museum curator Kennedy La ...more
'House Rules' by Cathryn Fox is book Two in the "Dossier" series. This is the story of Kennedy Lane and Sean Fraser. I have read the previous book but this is easily a standalone book with about 90 pages. Kennedy and her friends made a pack of sorts where they each would pick a 'out of your comfort ...more
Sean is one confident man, “no, I’m going to pay you a dollar amount to attend a function with me. The effing is just a benefit of the pretend engagement. And forget about house rules. Only my rules apply when you’re in my bed.” This was a quick dirty read and I loved it. ...more
House Rules is scorching hot! Kennedy is off to London to dance at the Carleton House, one of London's most exclusive gentlemen's clubs. All because 2 years ago on New Year's Eve, she and her friends came up with the crazy idea that when each turned 25, they'd allow one of them (to be kept a secret) ...more
Holy Hotness!!!! I thought it would be fun. I thought it would be cute. I never expected to need to buy batteries...okay, that's a lie. I didn't go out and buy batteries. I have plenty here at home. (No- those have chargers...) I digress.
House Rules is the second of the Dossier series. I missed the ...more

Oh! This packed a punch! So much heat in such a short book, but it didn't feel gratuitous or superfluous at all! We meet Kennedy, 25 year old museum worker who lives in Chicago, as she's about to embark on a sexy journey to live on the wild side fo ...more
Kennedy has always been in love with Sean, older brother to her best friend Olivia. She was a nerdy, annoying girl that Sean never would think, was cool. When she was a teenager, Sean took notice, but she was off limits. Being three years older, that's a big difference when you are a teen. She even ...more
'House Rules' by Cathryn Fox is book Two in the "Dossier" series. This is a novella type story and boy does it come off as short, hot, sexy and sweet. Kennedy and her friends made a pack of sorts where they each would pick a 'out of your comfort zone' with a chance to get laid type scenario and this ...more
Who doesn't love the idea of doing something so totally out of character from how you normally conduct yourself that you can hardly believe you have the nerve to follow through with it? And what if it involves someone you've had a crush on since childhood?
We've all probably had thoughts about that p ...more
I love these stories where the characters knew each other as kids and it was a hands off kind of deal.
Now as adults and a naughty, very steamy fantasy later all bets are off the table.
Even though Kennedy uses a different name and she doesn't think Sean knows who she is, Sean sees past her act. OMG ...more
So freaking hot..I loved it!
Sean and Kennedy make a great team, with him being so dominant and with a dirty dirty mouth, and Kennedy being more shy and reserved.
Their chemistry is scorching and I loved the game they played ;) ...more
This book made me so happy!!! I loved Kennedy, she seemed so real. And Sean was a dream. The two of them together, explosive!!! A great premise, story and character development, amazing chemistry and a SWEET HEA. This one had it all. Can't wait for the rest in the series. ...more
This book was hot! It read really fast and I loved the unrequited love/lust. The concept behind it was interesting. I'd like to read the first book in this series and potentially the other ones that follow too! ...more
A sexy best friend's sibling novella, Kennedy has had a crush on her friend Olivia's brother Sean for ages, but thought she'd kept it well hidden - until her friend set her up for a fantasy scenario where Sean just happens to be present. Her pole dancing skills on display, Kennedy gets the chance to ...more
How much fun would it be to be sent on an all expense paid trip to fulfill fantasies you didn't know you had? This is the story of how that can play out, if your willing to step out of your comfort zone and grab onto what you really want. ...more
One thing you can guarantee when you pick up a Cathryn Fox story is that it's going to be hot and with House Rules the heat is higher than ever.
Whoa was this a hot read. The unmistakable chemistry between Sean & Kennedy is smoking hot and sizzles on the page. If an uber dirty talking alpha and loads ...more
Now this is a Cathryn Fox book! Hot, steamy, sexy, and full of fan yourself bedroom scenes that gets your heart pumping. Very quick read, but still a pretty good story between Sean and Kennedy. Looking forward to the next installment!
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC copy of this book. ...more
This was a quick and steamy novella. That was hard to put down. As the chemistry between Sean and Kennedy was sizzling. Plus Sean is a dirty talking alpha, who loves to take control and boy does he!! Which altogether made for a really entertaining and enjoyable read. And it's one I would happily rec ...more
