Danii is a police officer.  She is accustomed to taking care of herself.  However, she has a weakness.  She is deathly afraid of water.  As a child, she fell into a lake and almost drown.  When her dog becomes trapped on a small island in the center of a lake, she panics.  A man shows up, apparently out of nowhere, and offers to save the dog if she will submit to Three Days of Dominance.Heketoro has a problem.  He is a Fae cursed to live on earth, in a lake, for one hundred years.  He must break the curse, or at the end of that time, he will die.  In order to save himself, there is a ritual, but it requires a woman to completely submit to him.  He believes that woman could be Danii. However, when his enemies, come after her to prevent him from succeeding, he has to hope that he can keep her safe.I must say I enjoyed this book.  The story is total fantasy, unless you truly believe in faeries and alternative worlds.  A handsome, magical man taking sexual control over a strong, capable woman?  If you're into that, as I am, this book is so there.  In my opinion, the BDSM elements in this book are more on the light side.  They are all focused on allowing the man to take control during sex.  There is some bondage but that's about it for the physical aspects.I felt there were some things that could have been fleshed out a bit more.  There were a couple of references to Danii experiencing "visions", but nothing ever came of it and so it felt a bit disjointed. There are also references to her mother that weren't really explained very well.  Am I being nitpicky? Well, yes, because there aren't really all that many downsides to the story.This is a fun, fast, light read.  There's a bit of heaviness at the end, and a couple of things got a bit confusing for me.  However, I can't explain it without giving spoilers so you'll have to read it to find out if they are confusing for you.  There were many things left open ended that I would love to have followed a bit further.  Nudge to Ms Silverwood, a follow up book perhaps??  Overall, if you want a pretty lightweight, fun BDSM read, this book should be on your list.As reviewed by [...][...]
