A no-strings-attached agreement with a dominatrix seems perfect for a sexually frustrated academic…until she learns the other woman’s identity. A moving BDSM erotic romance.

Icy, aloof professor Vivienne Carter is too busy working and raising her teenage niece to have time for a relationship. When she discovers a business card for mysterious Selene, a local dominatrix, Vivienne is intrigued. Why not get her itch scratched? No feelings need be involved.

But then she discovers her alluring dominatrix is actually the bossy new principal at her niece’s high school.

What happens when Vivienne’s called to her office because her niece just can’t seem to stay out of trouble? Worse, what happens when feelings do get involved?

I dont often write reviews. I tend to devour books and move onto the next one with just a rating. However this book compelled me to write a review.

📖 This book is ridiculously good. I was so invested in the MC's from the beginning and the story of Selene & Vivienne left me wanting. More. In a good way of course.
I would like to see a part two to this book about these characters simply because it was so amazing.
Things that are important to me when reading a book are, well developed characters, well written descriptions of situations/scenes, and overall must have good grammar.
This book has all that and more. You get a true sense of the characters, their feelings, what's happening around them and you're totally immersed in the story because of how well written and thought out the entire book is. It has amazing spice level 🌶 🌶 🌶 and the D/s relationship between the characters i beleive to be a realistic representstion of this type of dynamic. Thank you, Thea Belmont for writing this book.

The principal characters were both respected and successful in their work profession, which was contrary to their sexual proclivities of a BDSM relationship. However,
while one extreme was beneficial, there were times they needed to embrace the opposite in order to achieve wholeness. What I like about this book is that while it started out as semi-light BDSM scene play, it grew into love and so much more. I only turned my nose up at the scenes that had these 40+ year old women making out in the back seats of cars. Overall, it was a captivating read, so with that said family, Happy Reading

What an amazing, 🔥 and steamy book. Love the storyline with the up's and down drama. Mixed with dom/sub, family drama, past trauma and acceptance of who and what you whant in life. A 5🌟 for brilliant portraits of all the characters involved. And a very HEA. 😊

Damn!!! This is HOT! Vivienne Carter is as uptight at home as she is as a professor of languages. When one day at the book store her sister Hattie works at, she picks up the newest best seller and finds a business card for Selene, a dominixtrix. Being that she's emotionally woven tight, she makes the call and sets up an appointment.
Then the fun begins. It's an awakening for both women. So worth the read! 5 stars !!

Come for the desire and stay for the depth. Fans of WLW fiction with kink will be drawn in by the well written and thoroughly engaging play, but this book also has real heart. The story allows both main characters to develop into flushed out, living and complex beings. When and why they are willing to take emotional risks with one another is paced and portrayed beautifully.

Great story, but I feel like the sex scenes were a bit glossed over and rushed compared to the rest of the plot.

I understand building a story and the characters, but I think the love scenes should match. That’s the only reason it’s not getting 5 stars.

I think this was the best book I've ever read! Loved both characters, their passion and story it came together perfectly! Mooooreeee! ❤️

The chemistry between Vivianne and Selene was rather good. However, Vivianne's relationship with her sister and Claudia wasn't fleshed out at all, and there was barely any development between these characters, which was quite disappointing.
In addition, the drama near the end was too rushed and kind of unrealistic, in my opinion.

I enjoyed this book, it was a nice story but I just couldn’t get on with Vivienne as one of the main characters. I’m not sure what it was about her, something just felt off. Probably just me as it seems others didn’t seem to have an issue.
Overall a good read with a spicy side to it. And a HEA so… enjoy!

Reviewed in Australia on January 22, 2024
So. Here I am again reviewing a book that takes me out of my comfort zone as I try to expand my reading experience. (It takes me back to my days as a librarian when an elderly woman slammed a returned book on the desk and told me the book was disgusting and just full of sex. She then proceeded to borrow another book by the same author. Food for thought, hmm?)
Although the subject matter is not ‘me’, again I’m not going to subtract a star because of my own preferences. Kink is just not my think. (Sorry. Couldn’t help myself.)
The book is well-written and the characters well-drawn. I did have a small problem with some of the motivation but another reader might not. It’s graphic in parts, the basic plot is good, and I did care about the characters. Overall, a good read, but know what you’ll be reading.
