title: Dark Heart of the Dragon
author: Stern, Sophie
description: Renee has been on her own for a long time. As the resident Dragon Domme at the Dungeon, she's used to getting her own way, being her own boss, and commanding respect from anyone she meets, but when Dean comes to the Dungeon, everything changes.
  Suddenly, Renee isn't the badass she's always felt like. Suddenly, she's not quite so in control, but does that have to be a bad thing?
  Maybe it's time she relied on someone other than herself.
  Maybe it's time she learned to trust.
  After his divorce, Dean didn't think he'd ever find love again, but when he agrees to teach classes at the Dungeon as a favor to Anthony, he meets Renee. The hot-tempered Domme is a firecracker when it comes to her subs, but he has a feeling there's more beneath the surface than Renee lets on.
  The Domme of the Dungeon is fierce and brave, but Dean suspects she's been wounded before.
  Will they be able to overcome their pasts and learn to trust once more?
  Will they be able to learn that sometimes, surrender comes in the most unlikely of circumstances?
