Rachel gave up seeking a Master years ago. After a failed marriage and terrible tragedy, she’s walled her soul against going down that dangerous path again. Then Jon joins her yoga class. He’s thirteen years younger than she, but his Dominant nature threatens her shields from the moment she recognizes it. Not only does he understand what her body wants—he knows what her soul craves.
Part of the five-man executive team of Kensington & Associates, Jon uses his calm, philosophical nature to defuse volatile acquisition negotiations. He can compel opponents to willingly surrender when he draws the sword that closes the deal. As a sexual Dominant, he employs that same expertise. A spiritually driven Master who enjoys connecting with a woman’s soul, he wins her utter submission with his skills. But with Rachel, it goes beyond that. She’s the submissive his own soul has always hungered to have, and he won’t hesitate to use his talents, as well as that of the other four K&A men, to claim her.

When I wake up in the hospital with no memories, I’m shipped off to Denver to live with a distant cousin who knows nothing about me. If family can’t help me remember my past, who will?
I don’t expect it to be a gorgeous hockey player ten years younger than me. He knows things about me he has no right to know.
Yet, he still keeps secrets. He makes me work for every answer while he unlocks my desire—and fear.
Still. I’m blind. Naive.
And when his twisted obsession becomes apparent, it’s too late. For both of us.

I don’t want to hurt him—I just want to punish him. ⁠⁠It’s bad enough being the only female owner of the Salacious Players’ Club, but I’m also the only one without a kink, or so I thought. ⁠⁠Imagine my surprise when the kink quiz suggests that I’m not so vanilla after all. ⁠⁠In fact, I’m a lot more like Emerson Grant than I thought.⁠Just one problem—I have no idea how to be a Domme.⁠⁠That is, until the app matches me with someone willing to help me learn. ⁠⁠He’s too young for me.⁠Too stubborn. Too good looking. ⁠And, oh yeah, my friend’s son.⁠⁠Beau Grant is a brat. I’d hate that about him if I didn’t love punishing him so much. ⁠Underneath all of that attitude is a man who is misunderstood, selfless, and in need of direction.⁠⁠But if he wants mercy, he has to earn it. ⁠⁠There are a million reasons why I should stay away, but I’m tired of doing what everyone thinks I should do.⁠⁠I finally know what I want, and I’m ready to take what’s mine.⁠
