I don't read many FemDom books, mostly because I was under the impression that Dommes were all leather wearing, lick my boots bitches. Seriously I was thinking something like every villain in the movies, but I do enjoy BDSM. I love Doms of the male variety so when Ms. Mayburn, an author I trust to write a story I'll enjoy, wrote a FemDom, I decided to give it a try. I wasn't disappointed.These two served together in the military and formed a bond over the stress of Afghanistan meet up again after they are both out of the service; the chemistry is off the charts. Dr. Michelle Sapphire is a surgeon and that alone means she likes control, and it extends into the bedroom. There was this core of strength about her that I loved; while still having the ability to be vulnerable. Michelle is a Domme, she likes Alpha men like Wyatt Callahan to submit to her, and the love, care and respect she has for that submission is obvious.Gunnery Sergeant Wyatt Callahan is suffering from PTSD. He's in a downward spiral when Michelle steps in and gives him a choice. Wyatt is an Alpha, a man's man and he still submits and puts Michelle's pleasure first, there is just something so hot about that.The sex is off the charts hot. Don't worry there is nothing really crazy, just red hot sex between two very strong characters. The way Wyatt worships Michelle makes me crave my very own Alpha male submissive.While these two work out his submission, their relationship and their roles there are ups and downs and misunderstandings. I felt like there was a beautiful grasp on PTSD and the struggles that poses to everyday life.This is a love story with kink thrown in. I recommend this book to anyone who loves strong heroines and loves a strong hero that worships his lady.Reviewed by Sheri for Cocktails and Books
