In this third book in the Guards of Folsom serieswe get to see Grant “Max” Maxwell pursue his very won sub. Max's story was hinted at in Tag Team, the second book of the series. I know I was looking very forward to seeing what Max and Aiden were up to and I can honestly tell you that I was not disappointed.Max's road to a HEAstarts very innocently. His coffee maker craps out one morning and while he is out getting coffee he runs into what may possibly be the most perfect man he has ever laid eyes on. By day Max is a highly respected psychologist and by night he is a much sought after Dom. This man Max meets, Aiden, turns Max into a bumbling teenager every time he tries to talk to him. When Max works up the nerve to ask Aiden out he is very happy when he accepts.Max and Aiden spend time getting to know one another both in the bedroom and out. It is obvious from the beginning that this is a true love match, at least to the readers. It seems to take a while for the MCs to figure that out.Aiden is an innocent in the BDSM lifestyle where Max is a very experienced Dom. They spend time not only exploring their romantic relationship, but their shared interests in the BDSM lifestyle. After signing a contract together Aiden's training starts  getting serious. I loved watching how Aiden came to grips with the feelings he was experiencing. There was no rush to understanding. He liked what they were doing together, but he still had his doubts about the bond they were forming. He didn't want to lose his own identity to Max, but he didn't want to lose Max either.Ms. Peterson did a fabulous job of explaining the progression from beginner to novice and finally to inseparable couple. She just has a way of making the whole progression believable. There were such real details and the internal thoughts of both MCs were used perfectly to put the reader right in the scene with them. I have loved each and every book in this series, but I feel this book touched me the most. I liked the reality of not just jumping in with both feet. I also liked that these two men communicated with one another instead of letting things get out of hand and putting distance between them.This was a very well written story that will draw you in and leave you begging for more. There are some brief visits from former characters and even a small appearance from one of my all-time favorite characters. Oh, did I forget to mention that Aiden is Lorcan's brother? (tee hee) This is a book and series that you will NOT want to miss. No, really, you don't want to miss this one, go on now, buy the book!
