My Review:While I really liked the premise of the story line, something about this story fell a little short for me. There were a couple of things that seemed to be issues for me personally.Vicki is intrigued by BDSM and it shows through her reading. She's never actually experienced the scene, but she has read lots about it. Red is a photographer who is photographing the inner workings of the company where Vicki works. They have been oil and water ever since he arrived. They do NOT get along, but when he glimpses the erotica on Vicki's e-reader, he knows that she is the submissive he needs. What Vicki doesn't realize is that Red is actually the new owner for the company and he is undercover checking out how everything actually works within it.Like I said, the story is good, but there were times that the chemistry between Vicki and Red just didn't seem to be there. There was also a BDSM scene that seemed just a little too close to the edge of abuse for my comfort level, especially when Vicki was still smarting from it a few days later. That just doesn't seem right to me, but that is a personal thing.I liked how Red maneuvered Vicki into his lifestyle. The hotel was an interesting surprise...very intriguing. I liked the fact that Red came into the company undercover as a photographer.  I liked the hints about Vicki being unsatisfied at the company...and actually wished that had been pursued a bit more.I don't feel like reading this book was a waste of my time, but it won't be going onto my re-read pile. It was entertaining enough, just not amazing.
