Keep Me: A BDSM Romance
Vivian broke my best friend’s heart. Can I trust her with mine?
Naked. On her knees. Eyes down, back straight. She aches for a master.
Too bad it’s all an act.
She can pretend all she wants, but now that she’s under my skin, that’s not good enough. Not for me. Not when I see how badly she needs me. Not when I think of all the things I want to do to her.
I can’t redeem her, but I can be her rock until she finds her own way.
Until she submits, body and soul.
- - - - -
If you ask Caleb, I’m a hot mess waiting to happen. And he's right.
Even my ex, the man I thought I knew, gave up on me. Why Caleb hasn’t done the same is a mystery. He keeps me safe, and makes me strong, but what can I offer in return?
My submission. A gift I give him gladly because every cell of my body stands at attention when he commands me to serve.
I only have one thing to ask in return.
Keep me.

There's something magical about the games of dominance and submission. The excitement of giving total control to the one you love, knowing that he will take you places you never thought you could go. The absolute trust in a man who loves you, who wants to challenge you, who wants to bring out the best in you. It's love and total devotion in its purest sense, and that's what I love to write about, at least when I'm not wrangling kids and taking care of my family!

Another great BDSM romance
This was another great BDSM love story. This was the third book I have read from this author and loved it. I even went and bought all of the books. I see me re reading these stories several times.
Overview. Vivian has had a hard time finding her grove since returning. She has been rooming with her friend Amber who is dating Eric whom belongs with their BDSM club. Viv has been working several jobs just to make ends meet and get her own place. While catering a wedding, she notices that she is now working her exboyfriend wedding. When she bumps into Caleb. Caleb is a master/owner of the BDSM club and her ex's friend. Caleb then calls her to help with a BDSM slave demonstration. They bond, then he helps her move, and takes her to a BDSM retreat where he is teaching. Their bond strengthens and they decide they want to be permanently slave/master.

I have read this whole series and LOVED every one of them. Keep Me is the story of Caleb, the mountain of a man that is the bouncer at the club and Vivian who we were introduced to in a previous book as the bitch that wanted to break Gabe up with his sub. Vivian and Caleb make a great dom/sub pair, I loved their connection and their demonstrations were hot.
I hope this series continues as I would love to read more ( I read Cuffed earlier)
More please Cate Bellerose!!!

Finding mine
This short story is possibly a bit of a carry on from a couple of the previous stories in as much as the characters are subs characters from those stories. There is a small exciting bit at the castle where a kidnapping happens. But mostly it is about the couple doing demonstrations of BDSM... If you read the whole series you will get a bit of background.

Caleb & Viv
Omg!!! I knew they would hook up. I could see the chemistry building , but I never expected how incredibly engaged it was going to be. When they gave their 2nd performance, I felt like I was there watching it myself, then I found myself wanting to be Viv

Nice quick read, was exactly what I was in the mood for. Did not have too much of a story line but yet very well written.

Not bad. It’s like a Walmart brand 50 shades.

It left so much to be desired. It truly felt like the author gave up or got bored at the end. The spicy scenes are great and she definitely knows what she’s talking about when it comes to the BDSM community. I’ll give another book a try because this one took me less than two days and I do like a quick read.

I received this book for an honest review.
This was a red hot novella!! It may have been a quick short read, but you didn't miss a thing with it being short.
Caleb hot, master, bouncer, just right for Viv. Viv was a submissive, who didn't know she was looking for someone to be her master. The sparks fly and it is hot!!
It was written very well and left no thoughts unturned. This was my first book to read by this author. Her writing style is great, it pulls you in and keeps you reading. Definitely will be reading more by her. Highly recommend reading this.

Keep Me
This story is a standalone. I really like that. This Author write stories that are sexy, hot and has the BDSM lifestyle down well.
Loved that the story had an element of danger. I loved how the hero wasn't fooled. Easy read. Complete story.

4 stars only because it wasn't long enough.... It did NOT lack info or anything just wanted more!!! This is a must read author... She has become my 3rd favorite!!! Can't wait for more!

It would have been 5 stars if it was longer but it was very well written. I'd say more but I don't want to give away any spoilers...I will definitely be reading more of her books!
