Quinn arrives at The Den to get some training for a movie role. She is tired of what her life has become and wants a chance to make a change. The Den is both shocking and exciting and she wants to learn more.Marcus is not keen on 'babysitting' a movie star, especially now that he is a partner in the club. He has his hands full with his clients and has not time to waste. So when Quinn requests to experience the lifestyle, he goes full out. What he wasn't expecting was how this experience will affect them both.Once again, Lynda Aicher managed to deliver a sensual yet emotionally driven story. Neither Quinn nor Marcus are in search of love, but when they start their training and their emotions come into play, both of them must deal with the reality that is their life.She's an actress, he's a Dom. She's not strong enough to speak of her feelings and too inexperienced in the lifestyle to compromise on his career. He's too stubborn to let go though and when tragedy strikes, he's there ready to change his life in order to have her.I liked that the author developed their connection over time and that their relationship wasn't immediately a physical one. They had their scenes, but mostly they talked and shared and when the time came for them to 'train' it was packed full of sexual tension and excitement. I enjoyed it thoroughly.Bonds of Hope is the fourth book in the Wicked Play series, but can be read as a stand alone.I received this title from the publisher through NetGalley in exchange of my honest opinion.
