Lucian Bane’s inner Dom is out of control and hungry for things he can’t name. When he signs up for Dom Wars, he meets Tara who is naive to the BDSM world. Her reckless dominance and puritan heart fascinate him. But when he discovers the pain in her past, it unleashes his true Dom within. This book set includes Round 4, 5, and 6
I’m a husband and author, and I may be a little religious about both. I like writing hot sex and encapsulating it in the delicate white silk of devotion, commitment, and psychotic obsession.
Considering how much I loved Dom Wars: Rounds 1, 2, 3, this book really surprised me. Parts 1-3 were really hot, had lots of good chemistry between the characters, and the plot was pretty good. Parts 4-6 absolutely fell flat.
Anyway, it wasn't BAD, but it could use a good polishing.
They just keep getting better and better!!! Lucian is brilliant with his writing style. Lucian, Tara and Steve are back for more. In these 3 books, they grow so much! They love that blossomed in books 1-3 is back and hotter than ever. Lucian and Tara learn to rely on each other, their instincts and friends to get them past those who wish them harm. The scenes are HOT, the suspense thrilling, the humor will have you in stitches.
Tara, Lucian and Steve will be punished by the Top Dom for their past sins. Preacher will teach them all so much. This is a hard man, but find out what made him that way. The experience of book 5 (HILARIOUS BOOK!!!) will help keep them alive in book 6 where a mix of Survivor and Hunger Games comes into play...but with plenty of steamy sex. Lucian held nothing back when writing these books!
Not your typical 'Erotica' this series had a masterful plot with plenty of twists and turns. Dom Wars, 1 through 6, is a series I couldn't put down. It has everything, of course the erotica and also mystery, intrigue, suspense, love, terror and war, with a surprise around every corner, both good and bad. I recommend this series to every erotica reader who likes a gripping story line with their sex! 5 Stars!
What a twisted turn of events. I love Lucian and Tara, the Preacher and Becca become my other favorite couple. Such and emotional read. That Mr. Duff is something else, deranged comes to mind, twisted, sick, completely demented are other words that could describe him as well. This is a very well written series, and I'm looking forward to reading more of Lucian Bane's work.
What a ride! Truly interesting storyline with great characters and a couple of new ones. Overall I loved the entire series. My only complaint is the ending. I would have loved an epilogue say, a few years down the road?!? Just feel a little cheated after investing all this time and not really having a good ending to this journey.
Trust and faith was really put to the test during this 4th book in the series. It was interesting to find myself literally laughing during a couple of the smaller assignments, only to turn around and be completely irate on a few of them. I felt quite a bit of frustration for the two of them when I wasn't overly busy getting ready to kill. Lucian and Tara both have so much to overcome. She is dealing with him. He is dealing with his past and present. The assignments are being met with hesitation. Tara is doing her best to be strong while Lucian tries his best not to just fall apart. They are both worried about what the future holds for them.
Every time I read another book of the Dom Wars I am struck with surprise by the laughter that comes out of me. All of the odd things that come to light leave me laughing and anticipating the next moment. So, laughing in book 5? Not a huge surprise! Because there was some cheating involved in the beginning of the forth book, Lucian, Tara, and Steve are required to obey Preacher, the top Dom from Africa during the fifth round. Lucian is very unhappy about the situation and worried for Tara and Steve because preacher doesn't look or act reasonable. The three of them are required to sell unusual items in places that definitely doesn't need them. If denied a sale by a company they have to suffer the consequences. What is something that a toy store, an ob/gyn, and a funeral parlor don't need? You have to read it to find out! With preacher watching over them how much could possibly go wrong?
I have really enjoyed the way everything unfolded throughout the 6th book. There wasn't a moment of laughter to be had for me. I became angry for the characters, I gagged during some of the things they had to deal with, and I never knew what was going to happen next. This book wasn't one I could have guessed at. Things weren't bad, they were downright horrific! The only thing I knew for sure was that certain members would make it out alive because Mr. Bane has already started the WKDA series. I loved reading about the relationship between Tara and Lucian, but, I also enjoyed the other relationships they gained through being contestants on Dom Wars. Everybody served a purpose and their different personalities shined right through with the words used to explain. They all had individual strengths and weaknesses that were brought to the front, exposed to everyone else, and assistance given with teamwork. Soon to read WKDA The Beginning...
Round 4 It's time for Lucian Bane to face those demons. This time around we get to see the vulnerability that Lucian keeps well hidden. Most of the series Tara was the one who needed to be protected and Lucian needed to break through those walls. This time tho Tara is the one protecting Lucian. It was a great change to the protector turn into the protected. Tara does it with all she has. I am so excited to see Round 5 and find out where Bane takes us next.
Round 5 This is my favorite installment of the series so far. I loved how the team of three works together not only just to complete there mission, but to be there to lean on each other. The Preacher was an amazing character! This round made me laugh, cry, swoon, and surprised me! I can't wait to find out what is in store for these characters in the next round!
Round 6
This is it Tara and Lucian go into the final round along with the Preacher. This round was heart pounding suspense from start to finish! Of course the erotic scenes are amazing. Bane's scenes always are! The bond that the foursome has created is just amazing to me. You have to be dominated in order to dominate. The foursome didn't just blindly follow the top dom. They trusted him, because he earned that trust. It takes a strong person to give up control. These couples aren't, what I consider a, Dom/Sub couple. They are each strong enough in themselves to be lead and strong enough to lead when they needed to. This was an amazing series of strength and love. I can't wait to follow these characters into the next series.
Well I don't know what really happened in these last instalments it turned into hunger games for Doms with an extra dose of violence on the side. Bringing in Preacher & his sub didn't work as I wasn't interested in them at all & it ended with a limp to the finish line, sadly just didn't work for me.
This was a very interesting and different series. I very much enjoyed it. Loved 5 and 6 the most. 5 because it had me laughing often and 6 because it was so intense! Like Hunger Games meets Kinky sex lol Murder and Kinky sex whats not to like!
this books we funny hot and adventurous. when I started this was not sure what to think so I read and then got them . last one shows friendship and heart to the end . a good story.
Whether you're just now reading this series and wanted them all in one spot or you've read them individually and want this boxset as part of your collection, you don't want to miss the last three books to a phenomenal series.
ROUND 4 Round Four focuses on Lucian's demons and how they have shaped him into who he is. His task is to dominate those demons, which will move him and Tara, aka Team America, closer to the one million dollar prize. During this competition, Lucian and Tara are also receiving texts of yin and yang tasks to perform just to keep the pot stirred even more and force them to test their level of love and trust constantly. In Dom Wars Round Three, Lucian was Tara's knight and defender, helping her fight her demons from the past. Round Four has Tara displaying her kick-ass ninja skills to assist Lucian in his battle to prevent his past from tainting his future with her. Lucian Bane is a phenomenal writer whose words keep me deeply emotionally engaged in the story he's telling. Not only do I love reading about how much Lucian cherishes Tara, but my own heart also skips a beat when the author so beautifully explains Lucian's physical and visceral reactions to Tara's presence and the love and comfort she gives to him. I have loved Lucian's character from the first book, and Tara is proving to be the perfect soulmate for him! Round Five ... I can't wait. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK AND THIS SERIES!!!!!
ROUND 5 "True Dominance begins in here," she touched my chest, "not here." She touched my bicep. "This power is a gift. To be used to protect and nurture those you love. And submission is the mate of dominance. The two are destined for marriage." This message is one of the many reasons I support this author and love this series. It is a wonderful combination of humor and wisdom. Parts of it are humbling and some will have you crying with laughter. While there are quite a few lessons that I took away from this book I really enjoyed the character development. I love Steve and I think he plays a huge part in this story. In Round 5 we got to find out just why winning is important to him and what he has vested in this journey. Tara, what can I say about her but she wins me over more and more with every round. Lucian was humbled in this round. Watching him in his submissive role to another Dom was quite humbling and very different than watching him submit to Tara. It is easy to submit to those things we love, but to submit to those that we hate? What if we are submitting FOR those we love? Preacher Dom, I found myself absolutely despising him in the beginning and in awe of him in the end. His beautiful, humble, and wise submissive. I loved the part of their story that we learned and would love to know more. I would recommend this series to anyone (mature audiences of course). This is a beautiful love story that happens to involve a D/s relationship but please do not let the genre classification keep you from reading this book. Much like its author you can't put this series in a box.
ROUND 6 The adventure continues and did not disappoint. From the moment they leave the helicopter until they get to ... You didn't think I was going to spoil the story did you? .....there are laughs, surprises, scares, risks, challenges, and even fun-loving romance. You can't help but fall in love with Lucian, Tara, Preacher, Becca, and of course Steve all over again. The only disappointment is that's it's The Final Round. So get something to drink and a snack. Curl up in your favorite reading spot. Because you won't be putting this book down until you get to the other side of the island.
In the continuation of the Dom Wars competition, Tara and Lucian get put through the ringer.
Their budding relationship is tested to almost beyond breaking point as the competition heats up with the level of demands made on them to progress to the next round.
I almost read this book in one sitting---and went without sleep just to see what happened next. I don’t want to reveal any spoilers---and believe me, it’s hard not to do so---but to do that would just give away too much of the story---You just HAVE to read this book!
Wow! Okay. So much better. More drama. More action and more real Survivor-ish - only better. Tara & Lucian are still together competing in Dom Wars. Although it appears that every advancement it a surprise as they seem to keep being at odds with one another. Their love conquers. Alternating points of view of Tara & Lucian with no headers/markers/labels. Again as you read you determine who is speaking. We meet more characters and revisit old ones. Justice is served but the ride is a rough one that keeps you on your toes. No lethargy here. Just intense action pack drama with some comedy and nail biting suspense. Onto Dom Academy to continue this saga.
Wow. What a ending and what a story. I was not prepared for the violence at the end in Book 6, but I will say there are 4 Dons in the end. Jase is an evil man and will stop at nothing. Tara is a fighter and she did save them. This is an HEA and all our heroes live to tell another story.
4,5 & 6 are just as great as 1,2&3. This story is a different style of dom/sub. Lucian and Tara are great together. They have great chemistry and what a great ending
Who gave this book 5 stars? Did they read the same book that I read?
I originally gave Dom Wars 1, 2, 3 - 4 stars. It had a really far-fetched story line but it picked up and became interesting to read.
Hopefully I am saving someone time from reading this series. =======================
I was really excited to read Dom Wars 4, 5, 6 to find out what happened. I had invested my time in reading the first book so I wanted to find out what happened to the characters. Waste of time!
Somewhere along the storyline of the 2nd book the author completely went out into right field and put Survivor meets Hunger Games meets crazy man in the story.
And the writing just completely changed. Where there are multiple authors writing this book? Formatting was different and many capitalization problems. Maybe the editor was sick the day that the author published this book.
Save yourself time and find another book to read.

Now let me say... Very few authors can write a work that has me turned on, laughing out loud, connecting with their characters on an emotional level, and able to FEEL for them as if I have become that person myself. But, that is what Lucian Bane has done with these books... The final rounds of Dom Wars come to a close with in these works (though he continues Lucian and Tara's story past here) and its gripping and moving straight through the last '.'! I have not read the next chapter of their lives but I most DEFINITELY will! Lucian's struggle with Faith and finding God while being a sexual Dom- what many Christians would consider impossible- has me enthralled and, for lack of a better word, HOOKED!! Don't bypass this series, my fellow readers... Otherwise you will be missing out on a TRUE art!
Dom Wars love the concept, the different scenarios, the task they had to complete. The story is different, which is refreshing. I felt connected with the characters, the way they were written, made me feel the things they were going through. The interactions between Lucian and Tara were great, the banter, the attraction, how they both struggled with different demons and faced them. I felt their devotion, their strength and their passion for each other. The sex between these two is so erotic and WOW! The other characters were great, the Preacher, Becca and of course Steve! I liked the twist and turns this story took never knowing what was next. I truly did enjoy reading this series.
This author definitely has a way with endings! WOW! This story was strong, sweet, angry and shocking! I loved EVERY second! Just...WOW!
DOM Wars 5
WOW! Shock after shock! Love, love...LOVED the "Preacher" from the very first introduction! I loved all of the challenges. The ending was once again unexpected and exciting!
DOM Wars 6
O...M...G!!!! The strength! Mental, physical & psychological - JUST WOW!! The emotions this brought out of me were overwhelming! God is SO good! The ending was absolutely perfect! Thanks to the author for this wicked wild series! I will now have to read everything this author wrote because this was the best series I have ever read!

I just want to give the author kudos for this box set. Books 4, 5 and 6 had me laughing at times, sad at other times and don't forget hot and bothered at other times. They definitely knew how to play into my imagination and gave vivid details throughout the whole thing. From the trials they had to do, to the romantic,sexy scenes. It had my attention the whole time. I loved it. They made me fall in love with the characters and leaving you wanting more. I can't wait to read more of their books.
Another great read. Although the sex scenes were well written (and plentiful), at times I was ready to get back to the plot. It's that good even if some would have been cut out. Though I understand the bonding and aftercare reasoning for a lot of it.
Round 4 was a tough read. The challenges put on Lucian was rough. Round 5 was filled with a good bit a humor...something needed after 4. And 6, it was an adventure. Strap yourself in, all six books are an emotional rollercoaster.
I gave this series 5 stars because it captivated me from the very beginning. Lucian and Tara journey was riveting, spellbinding,hilarious and had me rooting for them. The lessons they endured and Steve was comical. If you want a fantastic read Dom Wars Round 4,5,6.Will have you sitting on the edge of your seat until the very end!
The game continues in this next instalment. So many twists and at parts, I did think the plot had gone off the rails, however Lucian as clever as he writes was able to make me do a 180 and left me wanting more when I reached the last page! Can't wait to see what awaits Lucian and Tara in the follow-up, White Dom Academy.
It's like hunger games and survivor rolled into one. I wasn't a big fan of this series but it definitely took on an expected turn. Over the top and weird was what it was.
