I enjoyed this book tremendously.  Angel, a woman in her early thirties, abused by her daddy - the preacher and her stepmother is trying to stay away from her father.  She forms a friendship with 2 girls who  come often to her bakery.  Angel is in constant fear of her family , she has been raped, publicly branded as being demonized and whipped in her dad's "church" . Now her dad is trying to force into marriage.  Angel has many TRUST issues for some reason!  To be touched by anyone is repelling too her Burt she decides to go with her friend to a sex club -to escape and because she feels that it is safe.The premise sounds bizarre but it works beautifully.  She meets a Dom who is a prosecuting attorney named Colin, who takes the largest her under his protection and teaches her about trust.  He was abused as a child so he knows how to relate to her.  He shows her that trust is a great part about making love.  He teaches her to be submissive.  I have a very hard time reading books that humiliation, pain and testing the sub like a slave is involved.  Karen Nichols somehow wrote a beautiful love story using light bdsm.It is well paced with likeable characters and the suspense was there.  I give it 5 stars."
