**I received this book from Random House through NetGalley for an honest review.**3.5 starsPresley reads a lot erotica. She often fantasizes about the BDSM lifestyle and after some talking to her friend/roommate she decides to give it a try. Dmitri is the owner of an elite BDSM club in Vegas where Cora (her friend) happens to play. Presley just recently broke up with her boyfriend and now she's feeling some type of way. She's a people pleaser to the fullest extent.I liked the kink. While there were some other steamy scenes going on I thought the scenes between Presley and Dmitri were pretty damn hot. I did find it a little weird how long it was taking them to have sex but I understood better closer to the end. I liked getting into both characters heads so that was a plus. I felt like we got to know Dmitri a lot better than Presley. Other than her cheating boyfriend and her not liking to be embarrassed by others we didn't learn much about her. I liked the way she stood up for herself in certain situations but that was really about it with her. I loved how thoughtful and sweet Dmitri was. His dominate side was nothing to play with but he wasn't afraid to show his softer side which was nice.I enjoyed Claimed even if it felt a little rushed at times. I would have liked more depth in some situations but overall a good read.
