This was my first Kelli Maine book and I liked it. I had no idea going into it what exactly it was about but I thought it would be extremely smutty and have some BDSM. I never watched Kelli’s series online so I had no background on it at all. I won't say that it's something that goes down in the history of hot novellas but it's a good short read. This to me wasn't your traditional Dom and Sub type book. It was different and had it's own little twist to it. I hoped it was going to be explosively smutty but it really wasn't that hardcore or intense. To be honest it was fairly mild.Alistair Ingram goes to Dolls & Doms private men's club to celebrate his bachelor party. He's a pompous ass, completely arrogant and gorgeous. He has the whole world at his fingertips. He's engage to be married to a hot supermodel and is ready for a good night of debauchery with his friends.Black Betty the dominatrix takes one look at Alistair and knows just how to teach this pretty boy to submit. She pulls Alistair back to her lair to show him a couple of her tricks but things go differently than she had planned as Alistair turns the tables on her. This leaves Betty stunned and unprepared for the rush of emotions that overtake her. Alistair brings out a side in Betty she has long since buried.After the night goes terribly wrong something happens that puts Betty in danger and keeps Alistair in her life. Things between them heat up bringing out old emotions for Betty and current problems for Alistair. Both of them are thrown into a relationship that they did not expect and become involved in a way that catches them off guard.Can Betty tame Alistair and allow herself to trust him? Can he protect Betty from a past that threatens to come back to haunt her?You’ll have to read to find out!!Overall I thought it was a good novella by the author. There is definitely enough there to keep the reader interested. I didn’t fall completely in love with either characters but still liked them enough to keep reading. I would have to say there’s only one thing I really didn’t like and that was the switch in Bettys personality from Dominatrix to sweet girl to dominatrix again. She went back and forth and I really didn’t feel it. I don’t know! I just could not connect!! Other than that I think this is a good little novella if you’re looking for something to read quickly. It’s and has it’s own thing going on. I’ll definitely read the next book in the series.
