Review: I enjoyed reading this 4,75 stars' story
Rating: 5 out of 5

It starts as a murder mystery. One of the protagonists is detective at SVU in Miami and therefore called out when yet another body turns up on the beach. He is good at his work and he always does his utmost to give the justice to the victims, but this victim is very special. Because of this murder he comes face to face with the love of his life. The writer reveals the past step by step - by changing the POV from one protagonist to the other. This way we get to know both men and also how the victim had influenced their lives. Discovery that the victim actually was a perpetrator came early, but to get to know to what degree you have to read the whole story. Indeed very twisted personality.But this is just backdrop for the love story between Davin and Alaric. The story will show the reader how deep love can go. And here comes the main reason why I did not give it whole 5 stars. While the writer does a pretty good job in hers (I presume the author is a she) explanation/interpretation of the dynamic of a D/s relationship, I still don't get it. How can a talented, skilled person just "lie on his back" and let another one take all control? I suppose that one is entirely on me, since I myself would neither give away or take that kind of power in a relationship with another person. Actually I get annoyed with people who expect me to make all decisions. I feel they take the easy way out, avoiding the responsibility, letting me shoulder it instead.I wish that the editing had been better. There are too many confusions of "to", "too" and "two" or "on" where it should stand "one", to mention some.
