Sin City #10
Significant Other
Guess who's coming to Vegas?
When Ethan's parents announce that they are coming to Las Vegas to visit him, he's not sure if it's the end of the world or a chance to finally come clean about his sexuality. While his relationship with them has always been strong, coming out as gay might change how they feel about him forever. But the thought of telling his parents about Max and uniting the people he loves most in the world is tempting. It's a gamble he's seriously considering taking.
However, Max has his own thoughts about how much he's willing to let Ethan tell his parents. There's more at stake than just a personal outing; The Elite Poole itself is on the line. How much of the truth is Max willing to reveal in order to keep Ethan happy? And how much money would it take to keep them in the closet for good? Contains graphic m/m BDSM scenes between loving partners.

Wonderful story! I was very happy with the ending of this book. I don't know if this is the end of this series (maybe another book will come out with their wedding in it?), but it was great to see that Max finally let go of his need for hiding his true self and his relationship with Ethan. The sex scenes between them are still sizzling and their love for each other was wonderful to experience.

Rating is based on the entire series (books 1-10 thus far) rather than each one individually.
Loved the series. Loved Max and Ethan. Loved the D/s relationship they've built. Loved them individually and as a couple. Yeah, loved the whole fucking enchilada.

Woohoo, the secret is out! I built it up in my head and reality kind of fizzled. It was dramatic but I expected something other than what happened to be how they revealed their relationship. I kind of thought it would be an accident or a really big deal. Not a bad installment. 3 stars

Review by The Blogger Girls.
Max and Ethan have been a favorite couple of mine from book 1. We are now on book 10, and I look forward to seeing them again as much as I did in every earlier book. These two have an amazing d/s relationship that I find so refreshing. It is labeled as BDSM, but it is by no means a typical BDSM story. Ethan is totally submissive to Max, but he doesn’t allow Max to rule over him. It is just a very natural role they each take without all the pomp and circumstance of a BDSM scene relationship.
In this segment, Ethan’s parents have decided to come for a visit after his father suffers from a heart attack and they realize they need to see how Ethan is doing while they are still able to travel. His parents are older, which is the main reason Ethan has not come out to them up to this point. He fears them knowing will only hurt them. On the other side of things, Max and Ethan are still very closeted in Vegas and at The Elite Poole. They have been making it work, and it hasn’t really been an issue other than it being something they hope can change in the future at some point.
Max is also being wooed by an investor who wants to take The Elite Poole global, but it comes with some heavy consequences. This puts quite a strain on their relationship, but have faith that Max is in charge of things as he always is. The ending gets a bit stressful, but I loved every minute of it. You can feel the love between these two even as they each contemplate their future.
I have absolute loved this entire series, and for book 10 to be just as good as the other 9 is saying something. It is well written with characters that have depth and emotions that bleed off the pages. The story line is also interesting and mixes well with the amount of smexy time. I highly recommend this entire series and can’t wait for more.

Fabulous!!
Omg! I am blown away by this book and series. Ethan's parents are visiting and Ethan is keeping secrets, one of which is Max and their life together. A captivating storyline with lots of drama, humor and kinky sex. Well-written and emotional, this series is one of my all time favorites! I highly recommend it to lovers of M/M romance with its blend of sexual chemistry as well as drama, action and humor!

3.5 stars
I really liked this one. Ethan's parents came for a visit and were great. Max is contemplating taking on an investor.

Great ending to the series but a follow up book with a wedding would be welcome. Highly recommend all the books in this series.

I'm glad Max finally got off his ass and claimed Ethan like he should have 4 books ago.

Good ending for this series. Ethan and Max have gown as individuals and as a couple. The series had tons of drama, but their feelings for each only grew stronger.

Perfect ending. So sad this series has ended.

Finally!
I was looking forward for this to finally happen, a bit OTT and plenty dramatic, slightly OOC for Max, but satisfying nonetheless.-

Wow
I have read all the books in the series and what a roller coaster.
I have laughed and cried in equal measure, the characters are both strong and resilient but also have flaws, finding each other gives both characters the chance to realise what is important.
I would highly recommend this series.

Omg this series.....
I've read plenty of m/m novels but this whole series had me. I read all 10 books in the course of a week. The author does GREAT at drawing out the relationship between Ethan and Max. I have been suggesting these books to all my co-workers who share the same literary interests. Go grab Dom of Las Vegas and see what I mean.

This was the best book out of all the series. I read this book 2 or 3 times continuosly because i could see the changes in their realtionship and also in the character. A real kind of love was shown between them in this book and what a healthy relationship needs was shown. This is the best book. A totally recommended book . Must read ❤️

This series was OFF THE CHARTS. AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL
Tricia Owens was a new author to me when I saw "Dom of Las Vegas" Book 1. At the time, I had no clue this was a series but Thank God it was. Maxamillion & Ethan needed 10 books to show their beginning, middle & end. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!! Tricia wove a spell of intense attraction, affection, misunderstandings, drama & serious lust. And that's just into Book 2. These men are AMAZINGLY sexy together, especially when the Dom/sub aspect is deeply explored. I was instantly hooked & I couldn't read fast enough.
It's an exploration of 2 men trying to find their ultimate partner all within the exciting world of personal security.
I'm not very good at long reviews but I CANNOT RECOMMEND this beautiful, sexy, exciting, sexy, crazy good, sexy Dom/sub journey of Max & Ethan. I was truly sad when I finished Book 10. I felt so very connected to these characters that the crazy talented Ms. Owens introduced me to. Thank you for sharing Max & Ethan with the world. If only the world knew how INCREDIBLE they are. I'm a crazy fangirl forever.
You MUST, MUST read Book 1 first. This shouldn't (in my opinion) be read as standalone. You have to follow Tricias amazing mind as she guides us through the super sexy world of Elite Poole Personal Security. With strong, tall, muscular, dominant Max as he guides strong, tall, sexy & deliciously submissive Ethan into a new world in Las Vegas. Btw, think I've mentioned SEXY a lot cause their sex scenes were PHEW...........intense, lust driven, sweat inducing, never knowing when or where. Yeah, that kinda good. As the books continue, their interactions are no less hot, but developing into a deep devotion to the other, incredible passion & ultimately the most loving tenderness as both men discover life is incomplete without the other for countless reasons.
Okay, I've babbled terribly enough. I warned you that I'm awful with writing reviews. The words in my head sound much better than the words I write. But finally, please run to Tricia Owens "Dom of Las Vegas" Book 1. I assure you, you'll never look back.

Love this series!
Five stars for the series, and 4 stars for this book.
This is such a great series, which I've enjoyed from the very first book, even when there were no reviews or ratings. I just love Ethan and Max. Ethan is such a likable character: friendly, open, honest, and so wonderfully submissive to Max. Max, who owns a private security firm, is sexy, handsome, dominant, and deliciously controlling, and I love that he loves Ethan so much (although it took a little time for him to admit that). I love the way their relationship has developed and grown throughout the course of this series.
In this book, I am glad that Max decided to man up about a certain issue, because I was starting to lose some respect for him, but he sure came through at the end! These books do not have cliffhangers, but I recommend starting this series at the beginning to get the full picture. The books are quick reads, but the stories are well developed since Tricia Owns is such a good writer. I can't wait for the next book! (Please don't tell me this is the last of the series, like a few other reviewers are indicating!)

Finally! After keeping their relationship in the closet for a variety of reasons, personal and work-related - Max and Ethan are pushed to make a decision.
Ethan's dad has a heart attack, and the 'rents decide to visit. Ethan loves his parents but he was a late-in-life baby. He would like too them about Max, but would they understand?
Meanwhile Max is being pursued by an investor who wants to take his biz global. The investor guesses about the men's relationship, and wants it kept top secret for 10 years.
Needless to say, there's a lot of stress and strain in the boys' marriage. It all come out right away in the end though. Love these guys.
