Review: Very Sexy BDSM Romance
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 05 31, 2013
This novel contains explicit and graphic BDSM.Jaime lives on the East Coast and her life is bogging her down.  She's a domme and she's become bored of her club scene, she's about to lose her apartment and she's lost enthusiasm for her career.  She packs up and goes all Thelma and Louise and heads off in her car on an adventure.  She ends up on the west coast and finds herself at a BDSM club that a friend of hers back home recommended she try.  She watches The Master doing the scene with a Sub and feels things she never thought herself capable of.  The Master, Donovan, spots her reaction and recognises something submissive in challenges her to a bet which she loses and has to spend the weekend as his sex slave, very much the submissive.I really enjoyed this.  I never normally choose to read a book with a domme as a central character but I always enjoy Claire's books so I decided to give this one a go.  Jaime reckons she doesn't have a submissive bone in her body despite her visceral reaction to Donovan's scene and flat out denies that she can get off on submitting.  I really enjoyed her inner struggle, felt how jaded she had become with the scene and thrilled at her discovering her inner submissive that she flat-out denied was there.Donovan was an amazing dom, I totally loved him. He's very experienced, very commanding and has a reputation for never settling with one sub for very long.  He subjected Jaime to a shock and awe display of dominance, he's very much in touch with her emotions and reactions and, as a sadist dom, he was pretty much near perfect for me.  I do love me a good sadist!!The D/s scenes were incredibly HOT with plenty of edge play such as wax play and breath control - definitely not for the faint-hearted.  It was so fascinating to see Jaime getting in touch with a side of her sexuality that she was previously completely unaware of.  She's still dominant, Donovan isn't attempting to change her but she's about to learn that submission can do wonderful things for her.  I really enjoyed the gradual awakening of Jaime's inner submissive and the growing feelings between her and Donovan.  Very sexy!4 kinky stars
