The Good Girl Effect by Sara Cate (Paperback)

A Billionaire BDSM Forbidden Romance Spin-Off from the Salacious Players’ Club.

Jack St. Claire is holding everything together by a thread. As a single father navigating grief, he throws himself into work, opening and running a new kink club in Paris. It’s easier to focus on control and routine than face the loss that changed his life. But as the pressure builds, it becomes clear he needs help—especially when it comes to caring for his daughter.

Camille Aubert never planned to step into his world. What begins as a simple attempt to return a lost love letter quickly turns into something unexpected when she’s mistaken for a nanny and offered the job. Despite the confusion, she accepts, sensing this opportunity may be exactly what she needs.

Living under the same roof, Camille begins to notice there’s more to Jack than he lets on. A hidden room reveals a side of him shaped by control and secrecy, pulling her deeper into his guarded world. As curiosity turns into connection, the boundaries between employer and employee begin to blur.

Drawn to each other in ways neither expected, they are forced to confront the weight of the past and the risks of what’s growing between them. For Jack, it’s a question of whether he can open himself again. For Camille, it’s whether she’s ready for what lies beneath the surface.
