Raine Kendall has everything a woman could want…almost. Sexy, tender Dom Liam O’Neill is her knight in shining armor, but Raine keeps pinching herself. Is he too good to be true or is this growing connection one that could last a lifetime? She’s constantly torn by her abiding feelings for her commanding boss, Macen “Hammer” Hammerman, especially in the wake of the mind-blowing night he cast aside the barriers between them and ravaged every inch of her body.
Hammer, Liam’s former best friend, can’t stop coveting Raine. But Liam is determined to hold and guide the woman he loves and see if she can be the submissive of his dreams. However, he’s finding that her trust is hard won and he needs a bloody crowbar to pry open her scarred soul. So he risks everything to win her once and for all. But once he’s put his daring plan in motion, will it cost Liam his heart if he loses Raine to Hammer for good?
If I could pick the underlying theme of this read it would be that Trust is the most important part of any relationship. These three women once again take you on a sensual journey with two sexy alpha Doms and one bratty sub. Raine wants to give her mind, body, and soul to the two men she loves but she fears rejection, and that fear nearly tears this threesome apart.
I have read a lot of BDSM novels and many many menage stories and learned something about myself as I lost myself in this read. I do not have a submissive bone in my body. I can’t tell you the level of unease I had when they have her naked not only in front of them but in front of Beck and Seth. I guess I have always been comfortable with the idea of a D/s relationship taking place in a BDSM club. At a club the norm is that everyone is naked, but when you take a retreat to a cabin and then bring along some friends it made me completely uncomfortable. Beck and Seth were there as her sounding board and to help teach her how to better communicate, however their presence not only made Raine uneasy at times but also myself. She had to take her clothes of and submit to everyone in the house. Seth and Beck never touched her but still. This made me a bit crazy and I feel like that is part of what makes this such an incredible read. When an author can evoke any emotion in a reader it is win. These ladies do an incredible job. They do especially well in the sexual frustration portion where Raine has to rein it in but so do Liam and Macen during Raine’s training.
The two leading Doms in this story also learn about trust and communication and grow closer as friends and begin to realize that Raine is not complete without them both. Liam struggles with the idea of sharing Raine even after all the cards have been put on the table. He also has doubts as to whether or not she will ever love him as much as she loves Macen. Just when you think they have worked through this and come together as a solid trio, their blissful bubble pops and all hell breaks loose. I am so looking forward to book three on February.
