Of coarse comparisons are bound to be made between this story and a few others. Since I never read the “other” obvious story that will come to mind first for most people I came into this story with no expectations. I was pleasantly surprised. Even though the storyline is predictable in many ways it’s a very entertaining, engaging and enjoyable story that has a couple little twists that keep it interesting. It pulled me in immediately and held my attention from start to finish.

The story is told through dual POV’s between Krystina and Alexander giving you both sides of the story.

It is a story involving BDSM so there is plenty of steamy romance. But nothing too over the top.

Alex is a man who is used to getting what he wants and is in control of every aspect of his life including what he desires in the bedroom and expects full submission from his partners. Krystina a strong independent woman is his newest interest and isn’t keen on being anyone’s submissive. Slowly Alexander introduces Krystina to his lifestyle. Communication and trust is key in a relationship like this. Due to her past Krystina confuses abuse with submission. They both have secrets they are hiding but when those secrets come out they have an effect on both of them.

It is the first in a series so it does end in a cliffhanger.

Lacy Laurel does a good job with the narration. 3 stars for her narration. She has a pleasant but very distinct voice. She has a habit of emphasizing each word, especially the last syllable at the end of every sentence. It can be very distracting at times. There’s a fine line between not enough “character” in the narration (flat) and too much character. With so much emphasis on her words the narration doesn’t always flow smoothly. With a little more experience she could be a really good narrator. Jeffrey Kafer did a fantastic job with his parts of the narration as usual. Clearly spoken with a nice even pace. Great character voices. He has a voice that just pulls you into the story and makes it come to life. 5 stars all the way. It would have been even better if Jeffery Kafer had narrated all of Alex’s part of the story.

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and voluntarily provided this review.
