This is the first book I have read by this author and it had quite an intriguing storyline. Kat is there for Thomas, helping him overcome the majority of his insecurities, while Thomas’ resilience restores equilibrium to Kat’s life.
Thomas is infatuated with Lina, his CEO, but around her he is always reduced to a bumbling idiot. After 3-years, Thomas decides it is now finally time to move on from his unrequited longing. All Thomas’ past experiences have been disappointing; whether this is because of his obsession with Lina or he hasn’t met the right girl, he doesn’t know. Allie is Thomas’ best friend and she knows him better than anyone, so she wonders why he hasn’t taken the first step to becoming a Dom sooner. Allie has found Thomas the perfect submissive, so this will be an opportunity for him to see if the Lifestyle is the right choice for him, and will also enable him to get over his lack of self-confidence. Allie can teach Thomas everything she knows, but she cannot make the first step for him. Kat is an experienced submissive and a trained masochist, but what does dominating someone really mean to Thomas. Kat inspires Thomas to be a better person; not only as a Dom but as a boyfriend. Anxiety has ruled Thomas’ entire existence before Kat, but by making her happy it brings him satisfaction, completely changing his life and giving him a new air of confidence. The longer Thomas spends with Kat, the more he is able to shred his old insecurities and fears. Not the same can be said of Kat, when she shows signs of restlessness. It is possible Kat is not the right girl for Thomas, but she is still an important part of who he is; she is the person who has helped him deal with so many of his personal demons and she is also his friend. Over the next 2-months Thomas takes complete control of Kat’s life and decisions; this is not Thomas her lover, but Thomas her Master and disciplinarian, and while Kat doesn’t fully let go of her insecurities, she learns how to control them. What Kat and Thomas went through as a couple made their relationship special, so why wasn’t Thomas’ attraction towards Lina fading. What was wrong with him; his girlfriend and submissive is right by his side and he is fantasizing about another woman. Kat and Thomas met at a time when they both needed each other, to explore themselves and to push their boundaries, to learn what they wanted; now it is time for them to move forward, to find someone who suits them better. Just a few seconds ago, Thomas had been confident in his future and his plans for the New Year; but what now? A copy of this book was provided to me with no requirements for a review. I voluntarily read this book and my comments here are my honest opinion.
