Securing Sara is book 2 in the Beast Masters series by author Reagan Hawk. It is the first book in this series I have read. The author did an outstanding job providing enough back story that it can be read as a stand-alone.The story is based on the Planet Ralen, inhabited almost exclusively by shifter males with a natural, driving need to mate and reproduce. If they fail to do so, The Heat will overtake them, destroying their humanity.Jaston and Malock were once friends closer than brothers. The devastation of war and personal loss drove a wedge between them. But now, The Heat is upon them both. Jaston knows first-hand the horrible consequences of Heat denied. He won't risk it. But there are very few females available on Ralen for him to choose from. Just when he thinks all hope is lost, a cargo ship carrying females for Ralen arrives.Sara is a survivor. She refuses to bend to any man's will. When she steps off the ship that wrongfully imprisoned her, she is taken back by the presence of these two larger than life males. Dominance rolls off them in waves. She can hardly believe herself when not just one, but both men attempt to lay claim to her. Her options are beyond limited. If she leaves Ralen, she'll likely be executed as a criminal. If she stays, she'll either be forced to serve all the males of Ralen in the Pleasure House, or she'll have to accept the claim of Jaston and Malock.The premise of the story is very unique and I enjoyed the BDSM element. My only real complaint with the book was that it was too short. There were several different elements of the story I feel the author could have expanded on. Overall, it was a great, quick read that had just the right amount of kink in it. I look forward to reading the rest of the books in this series.
