My favorite part of this story was the characters.  Mainly Lane and Derek, but also Brin.  Lane and Derek were fully fleshed out characters, and they were just waiting to find each other to complete each other.  Each was what the other needed, and watching them figure that out made it a really gorgeous journey to read.  I am very excited for the sequel.Also, the story was pretty unique and well planned out.  It introduced me to dog play too, which was good to learn about.  Derek was a very confident and experienced Dom, but also had this new depth of feeling for and connection with Lane, so it was new for both of them.  Lane had been a victim all of his life, when all he had wanted was love and for someone to take control, and it was lovely to see him open up and begin to understand his life, himself, and his ability to make decisions.It's overall a great read, good grammar, easy to get wrapped in, exciting, a bit of a tear jerker, and definitely emotionally demanding, but it balances the negative with the good, loving parts.  Recommended to all, five out of five stars!
