Delayed Surrender 2
Mallory and Arrick are attempting to be a couple. His somewhat sadistic need to dominate her in the bedroom is a constant issue between the pair. She is a survivor of past abuse and his need to inflict pain upon his lover is proving difficult for her to handle. She is coping, and he is patient, but she is afraid of where he wishes to escalate.
Arrick’s mother hates her and thinks she is far too low to date her son, and in an attempt to relieve some pressure, he takes Mallory on a weekend getaway to his mentor’s home in the country. Hendrick welcomes the pair, but everything went sour in the blink of an eye. Mallory goes home alone, and Arrick tells her it is over.
Mallory is heartbroken and she falls into a deep, suicidal depression that lasts months. Her friend Trish helps her and slowly she starts to heal and mend. She takes a new job with more responsibility, which motivates and distracts her. On the opening night of the new agency, Arrick Sanderson Jr. appears and pleads for her forgiveness.
She is just beginning to recover and live again. Will she succumb to the man she considers her soul mate?

I liked the first book in this series but this one was a little more complex and much more emotional... and then it just totally pissed me all the hell off and Arrick... what a douche. Don't like him. Nope. He sucks.. I'll read the final one just because I'm hoping he can at least partially redeem himself for his epic douchery...

This story is about the BDSM world and how different people handle it in different fashions. This particular book shows the actual result of what happens when two different Doms handle the same sub. To read this and understand, you have to understand that all people don't handle the same situation the same way.

This is my 5 star review for Delayed Surrender 2 by Megan Bright.
Delayed Surrender 2 continues the path to coupledom for Mallory Dunlap and Arrick Sanderson Jr. Mallory Dunlap is a smart, sexy, and determined young woman. She has a past that she would rather forget and a future that is looking bright. Will she be able to be the submissive that Arrick needs? Will she be able to let go of the past so she can move on with her future?
Arrick is a sexy and rich Dom. He is starting to take over his family business but isn’t happy about it. He believes that he has found everything that he needs in Mallory. Their relationship is something that his mother isn’t too happy about, but Arrick is determined to make it work. Will he be able to move Mallory past her hang ups? Will his past be the one to bring their relationship down?
The book was emotional. I really pulled for Mallory and Arrick. I thought that the scenes were hot and not overly done. There was no cheating in this book and that is always a plus with me. I really worried about Mallory for a while there. She is normally so strong but she lets us see a different side of her that we previously didn’t get to experience. I believe at one point I was ready to scream at my kindle. There were a few things I wasn’t expecting but they worked!
If you have read Book one then you definitely want to read this one. If you are looking for a BDSM novel with a few twists this one is for you!

I am still very much enjoyin this story and stand by my review of part 1 and add that this is a more difficult story and strongly recommend reading part 1 prior to starting this one.
Previous review:I very much enjoyed this story and series. It was a bit out of the norm for me, in a good way. This story I would classify as erotic contemporary romance. It is a story and the story itself was very good. I have already gone back to read favored parts over again.
BDSM is involved heavily here, however because Mallery is new to that world, there is a lot of explanation throughout the story. I felt, from what limited knowledge I have, it was nicely handled throughout, especially with regard to the differences between straight out avuse and BDSM.
This is a 3 book story (I abhor). I have to give credit where credit is due, each story was quite long and the breaking points make sense.
I highly recommend this series to anyone 18+ and mature knowing explicite language & actions are involved.

Wow where do I begin. I read book 1 and was totally into this series. Then I started reading book 2 and about half way into it I just became immediately pissed off. Seriously, the scene with the douche bag Hendrick was just majorly messed up. No aftercare after he about beats her half to death?!! The girl gets seriously ill and don't even get me started on douchehead fiancé ugh! I wanted to scream at this chick to never forgive the a-hole. He just walks out leaving her chained to some damn wall in a strangers house even after he suspects her of having past abuse issues. I'm sorry I won't be reading book 3 due to the negligent care of this supposed MASTER Dom for his submissive. I felt so badly for this little girl, she really needed a good man and hero in her life. This dude just disgusted me completely. What I had hoped was that she became strong and kicked his ass to the curb.
