Dominated: One Married Couple's BDSM Journey

Rate this book
Dominated

Allie
Back door stuff has never been my thing. But after a year of exploring the world of kink with my husband, Erik, I was finally ready to give it a try.

Of course, Erik couldn’t make it simple. He talked me into being part of the New Year’s Eve party entertainment at Club Noir, and he planned to claim me in that way in front of all our kinky friends.

It sounded like the scariest thing in the world. So why was I excited for it, too?

Erik
Over the last year, I’d come to know my fierce wife better than I had our whole marriage. People contain multitudes, and within Allie was the most exquisite sub I could have ever imagined.

After all we learned about each other over the last year, it felt as though our lives were finally complete. I wanted everyone to see what an amazing woman Allie was truly was. My best friend. The mother of my children.

And the perfect, willing vessel for all the depravity I had to offer.Untying the Knot

Erik and Allie worked hard to build a life they were proud of. It wasn’t easy, but by the time they reached their forties, they were content. Not just husband and wife, but also mother and father to three energetic boys. Unfortunately, that didn’t leave much time for each other.

This series is their journey to reinvent their intimacy by diving into the world of BDSM. Their love takes them on a year-long exploration of themselves and each other. Together, they navigate the ups and downs of self-discovery to untie the knot of suburban domesticity.

The pièce de résistance we've all been waiting for is here in Dominated and it did not disappoint!

I realize that there are going to be 12 more books in the Untying the Knot series, but at one point I thought this was going to be the last book. When I turned the first page in my mind this was the end of this part of Erik and Allie's story. Even though they have so much more to tell, this is the end of an era. They've come so far since book one and this display, this show or performance they put on might have had dozens of eyes on them, but at the end of the day it was all for them.

It was much more than just the claiming of Allie in her most sacred part; it was the claiming of everything that has led up to this point. Their struggles, their mistakes, it led to this final moment of peace and love. Erik and Allie have found themselves again in the most primal way possible.

Not having to say goodbye to them is the greatest gift Logan and Skylar could have given us this holiday season.

I love this series and this book did not disappoint. I love Allie. She is so exposed and real. The relationship between Erik and Allie is amazing. They are open and honest. I needed a fan while reading this story. I love that Ron and Dahlia are still with them. I can't wait to see how this series continues! Well done Skylar Quinn and Logan Black! Very Well Done!! I highly recommend!

The 12th of the Untying The Knot series is by far the best yet! After all Allie and Erik have been through, him claiming her as his in the way he did was absolutely *chef's kiss*. They both needed this!! I've loved every second of this series and crave more.. May I add I'm very pleased that Skylar and Logan opted to make more?
I'm really glad they took the story this direction, reconnecting Allie and Erik in the most perfect display and show together. Absolutely delicious. I can't wait for the next!!

Eric and Allie have been trying new things for nearly a year now. Their relationship has gone through its ups and downs, but they are taking things way out of their comfort zone in this one. It is an accumulation of all the steps they have taken in books past. All is done, stressing communication, safety, and each person's comfort level. I love this series, and this book shows the growth of both Eric and Allie as individuals and as a couple. The series was originally going to end here, but the authors have announced they will continue with 12 new books this upcoming year. I am so excited for the books to come.

It has been a year since Erik and Allie set out on the journey and they have planned a special night to commemorate it. It has been a long time coming but they will finally have anal, and it will be onstage at Club Noir during the huge New Year’s Eve party. Of course, Allie is nervous and she goes shopping with Dahlia for advice and to choose the perfect clothes. Erik also speaks to their former domme about how the annual party is organized and what to expect. She helps him by bringing out a special spanking bench to support Allie and giver the greatest exposure. There is a huge turnout, and our couple is never better. Shortly into their program Allie has a revelation about what they are doing, and it is less about her anal virginity but all about them as a couple, how far they've come, and how much stronger their marriage is; sexually, mentally, and emotionally. They are off on an extended adventure as they cross into the New Year. As always, exceptionally good writing with the prefect mixture of heat and romance. Emphasis on the romance.

Dominated is part of the Untying The Knot series about Erik and Allie, a couple that had lost the intimacy they once had in their marriage, but after three children and demanding jobs, they had lost it. This series was about their journey into the world of BDSM as a way to bring back the intimacy in their relationship. The couple started their exploration at home before they got brave enough to go to a club called Noir. Dominated picks up at the end of their yearlong foray when Allie finally agreed to let Erik claim her publicly at Noir in a way she never thought she would want.

As always, the writing style of the series was impressive, and the plot was tastefully written with just a little bit of wit. Joining Black was Skylar Quinn, another powerhouse spicy romance writer, and together they have created a fun and smexy series. I definitely recommend it.

The last book of this series - what a great "real" world trip. This is the best of the 12 books, emotional it did feel like the series end (which seemed strange to me). Allie and Erik plan to do a performance at Club Noir for New Years Eve. What a performance, the description and details made me feel like I was right there with them. Their trip in the BDSM world has been a great ride - this and the other 11 books are HOT and emotional and with the intervention of the 3 sons funny at times. The books seem very real life-like. Awesome book and series. Can't wait to start the spin-off series!

I just love this series, and this was a great way to wrap up the "first year" of Erik and Allie's journey. It was so spicy I thought I was having a hot flash at one point, but more than that, it brought together the emotional aspect of the journey they've gone on, bringing it full circle.

So many books are about the early stages of meeting and falling in love, and I have really appreciated this series for weaving a story about two people who've been together a long time (almost two decades) and their fight to not only make their marriage work, but make it rich and fulfilling for both of them.

And, you know, the spice is top tier!

This is book 12 in a series describing a married couple exploring BDSM to improve their marriage. It's a standalone, sort of, but it feels like it would be much better if you had read the rest of the series.

This is what was supposed to be the end of the series - the final claiming. It brought great closure to the journey this couple was on, and the communication and emotional connection are powerful. I do somewhat feel, though, that the intense excitement of a good BDSM story was lost in favor of making sure everything was described with good BDSM rep - I lost some of the spice overall.

Definitely an enjoyable series and a good short read!

Quite a year indeed!

Allie being center stage at the Club Noir New Years Eve celebration is fitting conclusion to a year that has brought Allie and Erik so much discovery, challenges, and growth in their marriage. To think it began with a romance novel on Allie’s nightstand.

Allie and Erik continue to be my favorite lifestyle couple. I look forward to reading of their latest adventures each month.

I received a copy of this book from StoryOrigin andcam eaving my review.

This is book 12 in a series describing a married couple exploring BDSM to improve their marriage. It's could be read as a standalone, But I would recommend that you need to read the rest of the series to get a better understanding of the couple and there journey.
