The Proposal Series

The Proposal Series by A.A. Lewis is a provocative and daring saga that explores the intersection of power, pleasure, and identity within the seductive world of high-stakes business and underground BDSM culture.

Set in New York, the series begins with The Dom, where Stephen “Brick” Woodward appears to be the epitome of white male privilege—wealthy, powerful, and in control. Married into a legacy of affluence, Brick plays by the rules—until a private invitation to the exclusive Phoenix Gentleman’s Club awakens his suppressed desires. Fascinated by domination and submission, Brick uses his wealth to explore a world where power is exchanged not just in boardrooms, but behind closed doors. His fetish? Dominating women from “lesser” backgrounds, all under the guise of philanthropy. But when he meets Apryl Sharpe, a striking and ambitious banker, Brick’s obsession threatens to unravel the empire he’s built.

The Banker, the electrifying second installment, puts Apryl Sharpe in the spotlight. A woman forged by betrayal and heartbreak—Brick among them—Apryl refuses to be defined by her past. Instead, she turns her initiation into BDSM into a business venture, rising as a powerful Domme in a male-dominated world. With a roster of elite clients and her own rules of engagement, Apryl thrives—until secrets from her past resurface. Faced with threats to her empire, she must confront old lovers, new enemies, and her own growing desire to stay on top—at any cost.

In the thrilling third book, The Sub, Apryl begins training submissives to expand her enterprise. But trouble comes in the form of Javon, a new trainee and coworker who develops more than just submissive devotion. As his obsession deepens, Javon recruits someone from Apryl’s past, throwing her carefully crafted empire—and her secret life—into chaos. Brick, still entangled in Apryl’s web, must decide where his loyalty lies as their twisted bond is tested once more.

A.A. Lewis pulls no punches in The Proposal Series, weaving a darkly sensual narrative full of racial tension, class dynamics, psychological power play, and raw, unapologetic desire. Each installment challenges norms, blurs moral lines, and invites readers into a world where dominance can build empires—or destroy them.
