★★★★! Perfect Submission, part 4 of 4. The conclusion to Cam & Isabelle’s story of BDSM sexual exploration & standing up to one’s past

The Sweet Submission series is a stand-alone sequel to The Seduction and The Invitation series.

There are 4 parts, which should be read in order:
Part 1: Sweet Submission
Part 2: Wild Submission
Part 3: Total Submission
Part 4: Perfect Submission


In Submission, part 1-3 socialite and heiress Isabelle Ashcroft (step-sister to Keely from The Seduction) was rescued from a menacing situation at a sex club by her father’s prodigy, Scotsman, Cameron McCullough, Cam aka Master (COO of Ashcroft Industries and Keely’s right-hand man).

Cam moved Isabelle, into his home away from her sexually and verbally abusive step-brother. But them living together stirred up jealousy and envy with an inheritance at stake. Add to that Cam’s conflicted feelings about corrupting Isabelle into his BDSM lifestyle when he should be protecting her from men like himself.


Perfect Submission, part 4 opens up to the aftermath of part’s 3’s shocking ending. Isabelle’s past has come back to haunt her. As much as the commanding Dom in Cam wants to save and defend her, this is very much Isabelle’s journey of self-reflection and growth as she faces her past and villains out to destroy her.

Seven words to describe Cameron McCullough, Cam aka Master: Conflicted, commanding, nurturing, caring, in-control, chivalrous and, temperamental.

 photo ws2 he BS by sb_zpsqmqugdbd.gif

Seven words to describe Isabelle Ashcroft: Impressionable, complacent, naïve, insecure, observant, adaptable and meek.

Perfect Submission, told from dual POVs, is a steamy wrap-up and sweet ending to Cam and Isabelle.

Commanding and chivalrous Cam!Pushing all limits sex scenes! Villains, secrets, blackmail, crime and more!

This was my favorite book in the series.
Cam is back to being the sexy alpha that I loved in book one and Isabelle becomes an empowered woman in this final installment. She didn't end up being the "damsel in distress", as I had thought she would be. Isabelle has courage and fights to break free from Brent's manipulations and devious plans. Cam was also right by her side every step of the way.




I can't believe I am going to say this, but I actually loved that this one was not overdone with all the sex. There were only a few sexy time scenes and I actually approved of this. I also loved how the whole gang from "The Seduction" and "The Invitation" series were there at the end and having Isabelle's back. Just lovely. And it ended with a perfect HEA!

** 3 “Yes, Master.” STARS **

“You don’t see what I see when I look at you,” he tells me, his voice so warm and reassuring. “I see your STRENGTH. Your COURAGE. Your BEAUTY. Not the mask you put on to face the world,” he adds, turning my face to look him in the eyes. “BUT THE REAL YOU.
~ CAM



Isabelle feels beaten. She can feel the cold steel of the handcuffs biting into her flesh. Yet this time feeling them locked around her wrists doesn't drive her crazy with pleasure, it fills her heart with fear and panic. Isabelle is in jail. As much as she tries to tell herself that she will be out of there and back home soon, her logic loses against the voices in her head calling her a killer, a sinner, a despicable human being, every time... Is she even really innocent?

And does she even have a home to go back to? Will Cam still want her now that she has dragged him in the middle of all this mess? The thought of losing him now, after getting used to his warmth, his care, his security, fills her heart with dread and threatens to strip her of her sanity.



Cam feels beaten. He let Isabelle down. He failed on his promise to keep her safe. He failed on his promise that everything would be OK. When the cops came and took her, his woman, in handcuffs, horror and humiliation shining her eyes, Cam just stood there, powerless, and let them. Will Isabelle ever trust him again? With her safety? With her heart?

Cam is determined to find a way out of this somehow. He will do whatever needs to be done. He will make Brent pay and it certainly won't be pretty...

“You’re mine, Isabelle. You belong to me just the same as you did before tonight. That means we’re in this together. I promise, I’ll fix this.”
~ CAM

Albeit being a little unoriginal and rather disappointing, the “Submission” series still managed to end in a satisfactory fashion. At least for me. That doesn't mean that I'm going to keep following this author and automatically one-clicking her books though, no. Only if she creates something really unique this time, will I be giving her work another chance. Otherwise, I am quite done with the overexposure of sex in her stories.

Everything else has faded away. All that matters is her response to my words and touch. I want to CONSUME her with this need I feel, OVERWHELM every sense until she only registers my voice, my orders, the ache of her own tender flesh.
~ CAM

///////////////////

P.S: Was that “claiming EVERY PART of her body” scene smokin' hawt or what?! OMFG I was burning!! Seriously!!

“Master,” I gasp, already so close to the edge.

“I’m here,” he growls. “Your Master is right here.”

3-3.5 ★'s

The book starts off with Isabelle being in jail and having to suffer through some harsh things. Luckily, she doesn't have to stay there thanks to Cam.

Suffice it to say that this is not my favorite "series" of the bunch. I do like Cam...I'm just over the whole BDSM theme. But I do like how he seemed to make peace with things at the end.

description

It was great how Isabelle took control of her life...finally. I think that only helped Cam with his life. It was wonderful how they managed to work things out. And having both their POVs really helped to see both sides.

The steaminess...well, again the whole BDSM wasn't as pronounced but we got hit right in the face with some buttsex right at the beginning. My other favorite thing...not.

description

Thankfully, things wrap up well. It was amazing what Cam did at the end even if it was predictable. Still...I enjoy reading Roxy Sloane and am looking forward to whatever she puts out next.

Favorite quotes:

♥ "I’ve never felt anything like this before with any woman."

♥ “I’m never letting you go again, Isabelle, not as long as we both live. You’re everything to me. I love you more than anything, more than life itself. You’ve shown me the kind of joy I never thought possible. You accept everything I am, without question. Without limits.”

" His domination means to me. Freedom. Release. Security. I trust him with my life.

But can he ever trust me again?...


In this last installment of Submission series. Isabelle, is going through a hard time, her past finally caught up to her, and there's no way out of this, tell she face her darkest secrets once and for all. But, that's not what worries Isabelle the most. her worry, is that, Cam, will never forgive her. and might change his mind about her?

Where, Cam, feels disappointed in himself. because he thinks he failed his promise to Isabelle. for not protecting her more.

There was a lot of struggling in this book - from both characters. But, Cam- the great Dom he is, knows how to make a situation more bearable and help Isabelle to take her mind off her worries. and Boy, he knows how to distract a woman. sheesh!

Not only, Cam is the most positive thing that ever happened to Isabelle. where, she's now more stronger than she ever were. But also, Isabelle is the most positive thing that ever happened to Cam...

description


This Series, it is not your usual Erotica reads, it's not always about submitting. There's more to it than that. you will witness a soft, sweet side from the Dom character.Which, to me it's the best way to have a strong, healthy Dom/sub relationship. There must be those rough, affectionate moments. it balances the relationship. and that's what i witnessed in this series...

All in all. it was a very enjoyable quickie story- that leaves you hot and bothered yet gets you thinking what will gonna happen next.

In this final installment things are tense in the beginning for Cam & Isabelle when Isabelle's past finally catches up with her. She has worked so hard to fit in with the wealthy & create this whole new world in New York, & when it all comes crashing down around her she has to figure out who she can trust & who truly cares about her. Obviously bastard Brent is still angry with her & out to get her for choosing Cam over him, but she finds she has more true friends than she thought.

 photo anycc_zpssrpsbydv.gif

As Isabelle is becoming stronger, standing up for herself, & no longer running from her past, Cam is the one constant in her life. He is her safe place, her hero, & ...her master all rolled into one. ;)) He sure knows all the right ways to take her mind off her current crisis. He is a fabulous yummy distraction! :D

-She craves the exquisite pain of submission, and fuck, I'm going to give it to her.

-"I possess you. Always, Isabelle. Every fucking inch."

-"I wanted you more than I've ever wanted anyone."

-"You transfix me, Isabelle. Everything about you. I've never come so close to losing control as when I'm with you."

 photo f007bcdd-67ad-4238-9d45-36d5a5447f8f_zpse3b55332.jpg

With Cam by her side she faces all the bad stuff happening in her life. Cam protects her, fights for her & their relationship evolves & reaches a new level. They are both more vulnerable with each other & share their true feelings with one another.

-"Every part of you."

-I've never felt anything like this before with any woman. She is everything to me.

Damn it, I am torn between retiring from reading Roxy Sloane's books, and unabashedly stalking her until she releases her next book. Because how can she top MY Cam? I F. L. O. V. E. D this series, and Perfect Submission was the perfect ending to it.

The past that Isabelle has run from for years has finally caught up to her, and now all that's left to do is trust her Master. If she can surrender it all now, freedom could be hers. But if she can't, the future is bleak...

Oh, what an ending! A happy (yes, I mean in the dirty way too) ending. Ever read a book that makes you literally clutch at your chest, because your heart aches with nervousness, happiness and a good dose of straight-up desire? Yeah, that's this book for me.

Cam....oh, Cam! He's my favorite of Ms. Sloan's Alpha men, because he's kind, caring, strong, smart, controlled, ruthless and will spank the hell out of you until you can't help but beg for more.

Ms. Sloane's serials continue to get better, and as such, I'm waiting anxiously to see what, and who, comes next. I can't possibly stop reading her now; I'm too young to retire, and she's to f--king good to ignore. ~ Beth, 5 stars

This is the final part of Cameron McCullough & Isabelle Ashcroft's story. If you have read Roxy's other books you should already know both of these characters. If you have not read them what are you waiting on??

If you have not already read the below I would recommend reading those books first:
Sweet Submission (Sweet Submission #1)
Wild Submission (Submission #2)
Total Submission (Submission, #3)

After Isabelle is taken away she wonders if this is the end for her. Will Cam still want her at all or will her past be the reason Cam finally walks away? When you are at your lowest you find out who your true friends are.

Roxy pulls you right in from the very first line. You will not be able to put this story down. Loaded full of all kinds if naughty, freaking hot, dirty talking, sexy, and panty melting fun.

I highly recommend this author and anything she writes! Pick up her books today you will not be disappointed!!!!

::: Book 4 of 4 | HEA :::

Sadly, the conclusion to Cam and Isabelle’s story has arrived. On the plus side, it is an incredible finish to another amazing serial from Roxy Sloane.

Towards the end of the book it hit me. I thought back to the first book and how much Cam and Isabelle have changed since them. They’ve each matured and grown so much, and being with each other has allowed them that. The love that Cam exudes towards Isabelle is astounding. There were a few times where his words brought me to tears. I swear I could feel the love pouring out of the book.

If you haven’t read this series yet, or haven’t even picked up a book from this author, I highly recommend doing so as soon as possible. Each serial is steamier than the next, but every single one is great in its own way.
I can’t wait to see what Roxy brings to the table next!

Thanks so much Roxy for creating yet another beautiful couple for us to enjoy and bring into our hearts.

What an amazing Finale to the Submission series. I absolutely adored Cam and Isabelle's love story. In Perfect we really get a sense of who they are individually yet where they are going as a couple. There is a bit of history that is revealed and I loved getting to know them better.

Perfect had the same schizzle that all of Roxy's books have, but towards the end it became a bit more reverent and it fit this couple to a tee. I will miss Cam and Isabelle!

oh fyi....we get a one liner from the Panty Whisperer Vaughn and it had me in stitches!!!

I enjoyed the read. The story moved quickly and held my attention throughout. Roxy writes page-turners...I don't think she's capable of writing something that doesn't move, which I love. I've been and am a huge fan of her work. I wanted very much to love this conclusion as much as her other stories, but something held me back from giving it the full 5 stars.

Isabelle. I couldn't connect with her like Roxy's other heroines. Don't get me wrong, it's not like I disliked her, but often times I wanted her to be stronger. Tougher. For example, the scene where she goes to the salon to make herself feel better... that didn't work for me. I wanted her to have a backbone of steel. To either silence the gossipers with an icy stare, or better yet, to sink herself into charity work. Doing something selfless when a weaker person might have stayed in hiding. Yes, Isabelle was a victim, but she played that role when I wanted her to rise above it.

Also standing in the way of me awarding this five stars... is me. I loved Roxy's previous series and that couple so much, I'm sure I have placed unreasonable expectations on this. It's a great series and it's unfair to compare it to another, but I can't help it.

This review is supposed to be about the book, so let's get to that. It's got hot sex, drama, tension, emotion, and suspense. Roxy's writing is always terrific. She finds a great balance describing the setting without bogging the reader down with too many details. Inner dialogue is interesting and gives the reader a richer understanding of the character's emotion. Everything ends wrapped up in a happy, sexy package, and I've certainly got no complaints there.

So if you want a fast-paced, sexy read with some BDSM and a HEA, this series doesn't disappoint! I'm so glad I've read it and am anxiously awaiting whatever else Roxy decides to write. I mean, seriously. I'd read the phonebook if it had her name on it. Plus a sexy cover. :-)

I was kindly given an ARC for my honest review! Thank you for this and all of your series!

PERFECT Submission

Imagine going your entire life running from and hiding your secrets until someone you once trusted uses them for blackmail and revenge.

Imagine a man in total control of his emotions. Closed off to the world because he's ashamed of his preference to Dominate women completely.

The journey with Cam and Isabelle has been the best kind of emotional roller coaster. They have overcome so many obstacles and survived Brent Ashcroft's BS just to be together.

Can they find the evidence to clear Isabelle's name? Can Brent ever be stopped? When can Isabelle be free? Will Cam ever get the chance to give Isabelle her HEA? Everyone Isabelle thought was her friend has abandoned her. But is she really as alone as she feels or is there a family waiting to embrace her with open arms? You will have to read TOTAL Submission to find out!!!

If you haven't read book 1 of this series then make sure you pick up your FREE copy of SWEET Submission at Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00R5GJ...

Book 2 WILD Submission http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00RKFU...

Book 3 TOTAL Submission http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00S48O...

5 Stars!

Wow! What an epic ending to Isabelle and Cam's story! This book was sweet, sexy, and suspenseful! This author has a way of drawing you in and keeping you begging for more only for the author to deliver absolute perfection! This was a whole lot of naughty with Cam *swoon*!

This book delves deeper into Cam and Isabelle. Isabelle broke my heart many times but she always had Cam there to pick up the pieces and herself as she found her strength. And Cam... gosh the man made me swoon and I am rightfully claiming him as mine and top book boyfriend that this author has produced to date.

These two together were perfection together. They completed each other in so many ways and when Isabelle gives complete control to Cam.... yes I totally get goosebumps when I think about it. And Isabelle really found her strength in this book! I had known Cam was going to be special and this book (well hell really this series) sealed that deal!

Well done again Roxy! You are definitely the Queen of Smut! I cannot wait to see what she has in store next for us but I have no doubt it will be brilliant as ever.

I highly recommend this series and author.

"This is what pleasure does to us all; makes slaves of us. Makes us beg for things we never dreamed ourselves capable."

The conclusion of Cam and Isabelle's story is absolute perfection! Everything I hoped for and more from this couple.

If you have read the other series (The Seduction and The Invitation) by Roxy, you know how shallow and icy Isabelle comes across. The evolution of this character across all of these books has been amazing. Watching this evolution makes the reading experience so much better.

Then there is Cam. What a hot and sexy Scotsman. He too, has come full circle. The love and passion he has with Isabelle is scorching.

All in all, another five star read from this talented author. Once you pick up her books, you will not want to stop. You will be left begging for more.

2 disappointing stars!

As much as I LOVED other works by Ms. Sloane, I felt like this heroine was not up to par with the other heroines and that the story itself could have used more.. I don't know.. substance, maybe.

So, to surmise how I felt while reading this last one..

Roxy has done it again with another erotic filled series. I am being particularly biased when I say Cam was seriously hot, everything you would want a man to be but to have the leading man as a fellow Scots well I could read about him all the time ... The conclusion of this 4 part series takes us the reader on a journey of drama and a love between 2 people who change for the better. You get an insight into Isabelle's life as a child and you get an understanding of how she created a persona to fit in with society and it takes the love from 1 man to see the walls that have protected her gradually come down. If Roxy decided to write another episode on Cam and Isabelle it would be amazing.

Words can really express how much I like this series.




Isabelle and Cam are a couple that I will cherish in my heart always. Through this whole series we have seen each of them mature and realized what really is important in their lives. To say that I would missed them is an understatement.

I'm honored to have been able to read this book before its release and so glad to have met Cam, that Scottish man stole my heart right from the beginning of this series. Thanks Roxy for this beautiful series and Im hopping to see more of them in the near future

Good Series

This is a great series. I’ve binged on the first six and now I’ll read the last two for the last story. I really like how this author creates a situation but she doesn’t make you wait for the entire book to completely solve it. That doesn’t mean she gives away the ending, she just solves one thing at a time so I don’t feel like I’m always on edge waiting for the answer. The answers come in bits and pieces. The sex scenes are so well done and exciting, the relationships are real and the characters are very relatable. Very well done series.

Eh.

This one was kinda anti-climatic.

I still LOVE Cam, but Isabelle was more annoying in this and played more of the damsel in distress role a bit too much for my liking. Also, it was pretty predictable and not as sexy. Almost as if the author just wanted to wrap things up to get it over with. Felt very rushed. Especially the last third and end.
