I tend to shy away from the books that focus on military, cops and firemen: I’m just never that intrigued because I want an escape in my stories, and the obvious connection to real-world situations doesn’t always promise that.  But, Sidney Bristol has made me a convert – at least where her books are concerned.  Picture Her Bound holds a strong police presence with Odalia and the bounty hunting dominant Jacques who wants nothing more than to make her his.Odalia is a police officer for the city of New Orleans: a study in contradictions she is determined, forthright and utterly dominant in her work persona.  Chasing down the person who has stolen a camera from a sexy BDSM-themed photo shoot where she was the sub in the center has her working off hours in unsavory places trying to reclaim the camera and its damning evidence.Jacques is a bounty hunter and natural-born dominant in every aspect of his life.  Drawn to Odalia, he was the mastermind of the photo shoot that could compromise her position on the police force.  He is drawn to the contrasts that she displays: dominant take-charge woman with a badge, pliant submissive after hours.  Feeling guilty and responsible, and fearing that more than just her reputation is at stake, he decides that he will protect her, retrieve the camera and perhaps convince her that while those were only the beginning of their relationship, he is wanting much more.From the streets of New Orleans to the private moments between Jacques and Odalia that are steamy, spicy and a touch naughty this story just flies by.  Characters are well developed, conversations feel real, and the steamy moments will melt your eReader! I adore Sidney Bristol’s books: clever insertions of sex, history, culture and a real feel for the world that she creates to showcase her story all combine in ways that are unique and refreshing. Add in te search for the camera thief and the overwhelming tension, both from the mystery and between Jacques and Odalia kept me engaged and wondering what is next.I received an eBook copy from the author for purpose of honest review. I was not compensated for this review: all conclusions are my own responsibility.
