Owning Sarah by Julie Shelton is the sequel to Loving Sarah. Loving Sarah was a great book, but I think Ms. Shelton has outdone herself with Owning Sarah. All the things you loved about the first book are here but Owning Sarah has so much more – more mystery, more love and more passion!Owning Sarah picks up right where Loving Sarah ended. Sarah, Jesse and Adam are preparing for their upcoming wedding but there is a threat from Sarah’s past that has returned to wreak havoc on the lovers.I had read (and loved) Loving Sarah, so I was already aware of how wonderful Ms. Shelton’s characters were. But Owning Sarah took the relationship to another level and I fell even deeper in love with Adam and Jesse. The relationship between Sarah, Jesse and Adam is so filled with love and passion I found myself jealous.  Ms. Shelton did a remarkable job of creating a trio whose love for each other was so obvious it jumped off the pages and into my heart.All the characters in Loving Sarah were fascinating and we are introduced to so many people that easily deserve their own book.  I loved the interaction between Sarah and her girlfriends. It showed a different side of Sarah that we have previously seen.  We also were able to see the individual relationship Sarah has with each of her men which contributed to the emotional depth I felt in Owning Sarah.Even the additional suspense storyline is well written and kept me turning the pages. I was completely pulled into the story and as a result, I could feel each character’s fear and sorrow as they dealt with some tough situations.  But I also felt their love and joy. The collaring ceremony was emotionally packed and displayed a D/s relationship at its finest.As to the sex between Sarah and her men, well let’s just say it is so hot you’re going to need the air conditioning on when you read it. Owning Sarah includes probably the hottest sex scene I have ever had the pleasure of reading. I’m still fanning myself off from the scene at the club. Wow! Ms. Shelton has the ability to describe a bedroom (or any other room for that matter) scene so realistically that you feel like a voyeur.Please be aware that Owning Sarah contains a lot of hot and heavy BDSM scenes. This is definitely a book for adults only. But if you are into intense ménage then this is the book for you.Owning Sarah has everything – great characters, hot sex, and an intriguing storyline. You don’t need to have read the first book to enjoy Owning Sarah. But reading Loving Sarah will help you better understand how precious the love is that Sarah and her men have for each other. You’ll also get the chance to enjoy two books and not just one.
