I live in the Midwest with my husband and two dogs, enjoy spending time with my daughter, babysitting her two dogs, reading and working puzzles. We have traveled extensively, but I much prefer being a homebody.

I began writing erotic novels with an emphasis on erotic spanking five years ago never dreaming that I would get published. I just celebrated the release of my eleventh title and am very thankful to my publisher, Pink Flamingo, for taking a chance on me and giving me the opportunity to enjoy a fun career. While my earlier books lean more towards straight erotica that will appeal to only a very select audience, my last five books are erotic romances. I enjoy hearing all comments from readers.

Determined to Master by BJ Wayne is a fantastic collection of steamy and sizzling hot stories, 5 stories to be exact. You get to read about 5 longtime friends and the stories about each of those friends and how they found love. Along the way there are some serious storylines that deal with things like death, grief, disabilities, life, kink, BDSM … each story is filled with intrigue, suspense, passion, heat and love. The men who are seriously alpha and the women who captured their hearts. This was a great series and I loved every moment


My Rating: 4.6 stars *****

ALL FIVE VIRGINIA BLUEBLOOD BOOKS IN ONE

I loved these five stories and was so engrossed in the plot and the characters. Now and then, you read a book that you become enraptured into the storyline and the characters, and that is exactly what BJ Wane did with these books. What an amazing series, and to have all five Virginia Bluebloods in one book. Five stories, six hot alpha males and the five women who are strong but vulnerable. These stories are intense with plenty of passion and sizzling hot sex scenes.

Blindsided

The story is so many things; a fling turned into an affair, an adventure in living in spite of a handicap, and an underlying mystery and suspense. Learning about who really are your friends and who is a wolf in sheep's clothing? What a great cast of characters, I loved Nate and Eve together, how he opened up a new world to Eve with experiences, his friendship with his best childhood friends, and how they all played together.

The plot kept me captivated and questioning some people’s motives, and the various plot twists kept me in constant suspense. The dialog between different characters showed the clashes in personalities and friendships, sometimes heartwarming and other times sinister. As the story evolves, and little things are said, you see how evil someone can be, and you are on the edge of your seat, and the pages keep turning. In the end, with truths revealed, eyes are wide open to what matters the most.

Bind Me to You

The story is a mystery, suspense, with a mother’s love to protect her son, a woman who cares so much for her sister and nephew; she is willing to step out of her comfort zone to protect them from someone. I love how these stories have individuals with handicaps but show how capable they can be with love, support and caring people in their lives.

Camille and Dec have a magnetic draw to each other, she doesn’t trust men with her heart and is closed about her life. Dec has never been serious about a woman, but something is different with Camille. Secrets, so many secrets Camille is keeping, and Dec knows there is more to her than she is letting on. But what happens when those secrets cross a line, affect more than just them, then what happens? Wes, Dec, Nate, and Fin have a very strong bond since childhood, but the people who enter their lives became part of their family, and they take care of the family.

Surrender to Me

The story revolves around one woman, Shea Murphy, and two Masters, her dead husband, Master Gerard, and her budding relationship with Master Fin. Shea is a bright woman, is an accountant, but had a terrible childhood with so much loss, from her alcoholic mother, to foster parents that weren’t always supportive. Shea has OCD that at times has such a powerful control over her that it takes a deviation to help her cope. Fin’s younger brother, Sean, suffers OCD, so he understands, and he can help Shea with an attack. The pull and guilt she feels and is burdened with from childhood to her late husband is a constant battle.

The plot of the story is full of blame, guilt, anger, hurt, confusion, and a desire to please and trying to make amends to a deceased husband. The characters in these stories are very well developed and engaging. The way Fin deals with Shea is open and honest, but he knows she holds back, and her dead husband haunts her and is caught up in their relationship. The story keeps the majority of issues with Gerard in the background and slowly brings the truth to light, adding a touch of mystery and suspense. What will it take for Shea to quit blaming herself for other’s failures and to accept and trust Fin? The story is explicit in sex scenes including several ménage à trios scenes at The Warehouse. For Shea, she could be very open with pain and carnal delights, giving over control to Master Fin. It is her personal emotions and memories that haunt her, holding her back, like an open wound that just won’t heal until she is willing to bury her past and move forward with her future.

Blackmailed

When we met Wes, he was involved with Katie, but their split leaves everyone confused, He won’t talk about what happened, and he was the one they thought would be marrying first. Wes is at a business meeting in downtown Richmond, at an upscale bar, he notices the lovely lady that sits alone with the deer-in-the-headlights look. When she leaves alone, he also leaves but shocked to see her enter a seedier bar, and he follows and ends up rescuing her. When she propositions him to join her at her motel, it’s a one night stand, so why not, but he tells her, it will be my way, my rules.

Charlotte Heffington, aka Charlie, has lived the most sheltered life, and at twenty-nine, she has a bucket list and plans on crossing items off and living for a change. Number one on the list, have sex with a stranger. Charlotte has always played by the rules, doing what she was told, but she wants to experience things she was always denied because of being sick and spending so much time in hospitals. To experience the most erotic night of her life to then being blackmailed, dealing with her dying father, her cousin’s threats, and then to find the man she has only known as Wes is someone she and Sister Catherine are hoping will help the Children’s home, finds her in a new situation.

The plot is full of angst, passion, new experiences, control, emotional situations and being pulled in so many directions you don’t know what to do. From being blackmailed by a family member trying to force an unwanted marriage, her passion trying to help disadvantaged children, to being blackmailed by another into sexual servitude, has Charlie being a pawn in so many games. The plot twists have you admiring Charlie for sticking to her agreement, never revealing the truth, her jubilant experiences of the simple things with childlike enthusiasm to her ultimate surrender to the passion that Wes helps her experience. The interaction and dialog of the characters are heartwarming, emotional and even entertaining. The chemistry between Wes and Charlie is explosive with passion and desire, even if they each try to deny their true feelings. Sometimes in life, you have to ignore everyone else and allow yourself the freedom to feel and experience life, love and happiness, no matter what the cost, and maybe, just maybe, in the end, you will get your happily ever after ending.

Bound By Two

Dani overhears a startling conversation in her husband’s office between him and the doctor and learns that they have been drugging her, embezzling from her families pharmaceutical company, and plan on having her committed to an asylum. In a panic, she flees Wheeling, West Virginia and finds herself in Richmond, Virginia. At night, a car following too close has her turning down a secluded street that takes her to The Warehouse; her truck won’t restart, and Masters Dale and Eli come to her aid and take her inside to get out of the cold while waiting for a tow truck. They can see her innocence in the BDSM lifestyle, but also the open curiosity. And thus, this journey of discovery begins.

Masters Dale and Eli are long-time friends from their time serving together in the military. They don’t mind sharing a woman and enjoy ménage scenes. They know Dani is hiding something and try to encourage her to talk to them. Dani was a trained veterinarian who lost her job due to being drugged by her husband, but her love of animals won’t stop her from volunteering at an SPCA, and even the Doctor there can sense Dani is keeping secrets. She can also tell that she has experience that Dani won’t reveal as to the extent of her veterinarian experience.

What will it take for Dani to open up? She makes an appointment with Master Dec and hopes the attorney and client privileges will allow her to tell what she knows, and hopefully, someone will believe her. Is her time on the run, running out of time? Will Trevor find her first? An excellent example of how important trust in a D/s relationship is more than just during a scene. Lots of mystery, suspense, along with eye-opening scenes for a newbie. The scenes are detailed, and the sex is explicit.

Determined to Master is a hot box set featuring all 5 of the Virginia Bluebloods series.

Blindsided: 4 stars. It's a sexy, emotional tale featuring Eve and Nate, who, after spending a hot night together, find they want more. Nate is surprised to find the woman he can't get off his mind is blind, and he sets about giving her pleasure that she's never experienced before, just the two of them and with his friends. But, when her, let's not be afraid to call it like it is, and say CRAZY friend, comes along, she manages to place an obstacle between Eve and Nate that they may not be able to overcome. I really liked this one. It's not just super steamy, the emotional connection between Nate and Eve is even stronger than their physical connection.

Bind Me to You: 4 stars. It features Camille and Declan, the owner of The Warehouse, the club Camille goes to to find blackmailable evidence on her sister's sleazy ex, who's a member there. Their relationship starts off with a tiny omission and deception, so can these two hope to make things work when Camille's lie is exposed? But not only that, can Declan even convince Camille to take the chance of having MORE with him? More than just the super hot sex they find themselves indulging in? The way Declan seems to command her submission even though she's a complete novice to the lifestyle? I liked this one a lot too, especially Declan. It's even hotter than Blindsided and flows seamlessly.

Surrender to Me: 3.5 stars. It features Fin, one of Nate and Dec's friends, and fellow Dom, and Shea, a sub who's seeking relief from her guilt over her Master/husband's suicide a year ago. Fin's the Dom in charge of newbies who are interested in The Warehouse the night Shea stops in, and he is interested in what secrets he can see hiding in her eyes. He knows there's a lot going on with her and he wants to help. He wants to play with her too, but more than that, he wants to help. Unfortunately, Shea's guilt, made so much worse by her severe OCD, causes her to run, so Fin will have to wait until their next meeting before he can set about helping her. I didn't like this one as much as the previous two, mainly because Shea was a little annoying. I loved Fin, though, and thought Surrender to Me was just as sexy as the first two installments.

Blackmailed: 2 stars. It features another of the circle of friends, Wes, and a sweet, innocent woman named Charlotte, who wants to cross things off her bucket list. When she spends a hot night with a demanding, dominating Wes, she has no idea who he is, nor does he know who she is. And when he finds out, let's just say he was a complete and total asshole about it. In fact, he's an asshole throughout the entire story and that's why the 2 stars instead of the 4 it would be if he weren't such a jackass.

Bound By Two: 4 stars. Features Dani, a woman running from her abusive husband and physician, and two more Doms from The Warehouse, Eli and Dale. I loved this one. It's short and sexy and sweet. I don't like how Eli and Dale reacted when they found out her secret, but other than that, I thought it was great.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

much as she falls for them. They find out some of what she is holding back on
them and they think the worst. Once her story is out and she is rescued from
further harm. The rest has some twists and turns taking you to an unbelievable
finish.

The more I read BJ Wane, the more I enjoy her books. She has gotten better at her craft the more she writes, which shows me she is diligent and wants her books to be the best !

If you don't like Dominants written correctly, this probably isn't the book for you. This isn't a Fifty knock off, this is the closest you can come to being realistic. Even in a 24 /7 D/s relationship, there is a give and take, and this book shows that very well. As far as club play, that not only varies by club, it also varies by couple. I know most submissives are very open about wanting the enjoyment their Doms can give them and they love it when their limits are pushed. To say that the Doms in this book are acting in a non consensual way is pretty much saying that their submissives are gagged. There are lots of ways to stop play, no being the first one. I will admit that some of the play should have been discussed ahead of time, but at no time did the submissives not thoroughly enjoy themselves. That is the whole point of D/s play.

I loved this book. It gave me an opportunity to meet all five of these Dominants and their submissives (even though some of them didn't know they were at the time). Each story was unique which is a tough thing to do if all five stories are going to be read one after another. BJ Wane managed to make each story stand alone and she brought the characters through all of the books, instead of concentrating on just one couple for each book. I enjoyed that the most. Its always good when you can revisit with friends.

I'd highly recommend this book to anyone wanting to read about D/s and understand it better. Loved it, looking for the next BJ Wane book I can load onto my Kindle. Oh, and thanks to the author for putting them on KU.

Five stories not total. Four of the stories are about life-long friends who happened to be alpha males, bluebloods who have turned there backs on the family business, become wealthy in their own right, and find that special woman in which to share their lives.

The final book is about two Doms that accidentally come across their special woman.

There are several issues dealt with amongst the five books, but each book has an intelligent woman, each of various strength and independence, either embracing or exploring their submission. All ultimately end up in a D/a relationship whether one on one of playing in the club one of the friend 's owns.

The five books are Blindsided - Nate & Eve;
Bind Me to You - Dec & Camille; Surrender to You - Fin & Shea; Blackmailed - Wes & Charlie; and finally, Bound by Two - Eli, Dani, & Dale.

I have to say that the last two were my least favorite. Blackmailed, because Wes started off as an a$$ because of a previous bad relationship, started to behave a little better, and then pulled an assified move toward the end. I felt sorry for Charlotte because she could handle her career, but has difficulty putting her cousin in his place.

Bound by Two didn't seem to fully explore the story that led Dani into the situation that ultimately led her to Eli and Dale. It seemed to be rushed, but that book also seemed shorter to me.

Overall, a set of five books that include disabilities, mystery, intrigue, spanking, aspects of BDSM, D/s relationships, romance, sex, and suspense.

I read this book via Kindle Unlimited.

5.0 out of 5 starsLove Conquered All
ByDonna Lon July 7, 2018
Format: Kindle Edition
This book is great value with five individual stories with a common theme.
Stories of overcoming past and presents issues so crippling at times, it does
not seem possible to survive the challenges and live life to the fullest.I could
not pick a favorite story but loved how they were all different but with a common
theme.Sexy,dominant men with heart and soul, who fought tooth and nail for
the women in their lives.I loved the suspense elements woven into each story,
it added complexity that was captivating.There were moments of hidden strength
that were inspirational as each character overcome handicaps that life had delt
them,fighting their past to reach new heights of pleasure mixed with delicious
pain.The women were insecure at first with their journey into BDSM and exploring
their deepest desires, but could never have imagined the pleasure it brought them.
This book was spine tingling good in so many ways.Sexy, protective men who
every woman dreams of,great characters with heart,the right amount of heat and
punishment scenes The author made the women vulnerable but with the men's
strength,they overcome all the hurdles life threw at them.I fell in love with this
book because it's more than just an erotic romance story.All the characters have
damaged pasts that they had locked away without dealing with them.Together,
the trust between them grew and they slowly opened up to each other.

When you read the title and description of a book, you go in with certain expectations. "Virginia Bluebloods," so look for arrogant men who think they can buy anything they want. Check! "Determined to Master" so look for some kinky sex with D/S themes. Check!

What I didn't expect was strong, intelligent characters who developed as the story progressed and grew on me as a reader. I did not expect a prolonged, well developed plot that drew me in and made me reluctant to put the book down. And I did not expect the profound sense of satisfaction in a solid HEA.

And that was just the first book in this multi-book collection.

This one exceeded all my expectations and in a decidedly good way. I cannot recommend it enough. Enjoy!

Wow what an awesome set of books to read, five stories all in one. Blindsided, Bind me to you, Surrender to me, Blackmailed, Bound by two, and i loved each one.
I have to say i have read a few of BJ Wanes books before, but none of these, so when i got the chance to read the ARC i jumped in both barrels, and i can tell you to the people who arnt sure... Its a winner it really is. Men who have been friends for a very long time find their very own special ladies, ones that are venerable and tough will submit to their dominance and will love them for who they are. These men have a protective streak a mile wide.
Thank you for writing such beautiful books i certainly would give well over five stars if i could.

Each of these 5 books were amazing reads. The complex story lines. Spanking and BDSM one or both play a part in the books. The men are strong, dominant, experienced lovers, who didn't expect a lasting love in their lives. The women all have things to overcome in some way, but are independent strong women.
I couldn'the put each book down until finished and did not eat to wait between books but did take break to watch my grand baby for awhile, then went back to my next book.
We get a taste of blindness, jealousy, loss, starting over, committed friendship, sharing a lover with a friend and a true menage.
You will be captavated by these stories they are a must have for any collection.

These five books were entertaining and engaging, covering a variety of topics from disability to blackmail and extortion. It adds to the fantasy of course when we are dealing with rich playboys and they seem to have as many insecurities as the rest of us. These books are sexy and romantic and although some is based around the BDSM community not all of our heroes are as fully immersed in the lifestyle as others. Having said that there is plenty of voyeurism and other kinky sexy stuff going on.
The first four books concerning four long term friends were really good but I have to say the final book with Dale and Eli, members of Dec's BDSM club seemed rather rushed and the back story was beyond lacking, on its own I would have only given it 3 stars which is a shame as I really liked the characters.

As with her other books, Ms. Wayne made the BDSM lifestyle center stage for the stories.Storng people, but with issues. Here a group of five wealthy men, born to their wealth, but finding their own way, often in opposition to their families, find the one to be with. But their friends have their own problems and issues. The lifestyle - not just the sex - helps them to overcome barriers and face their problems head on. In many ways this book reminds me of her series of "Miami Masters".

I really enjoyed each and every book in this 5 book box set of the series Virginia Bluebloods. Highly erotic and sensual with strong alpha males and the women strong enough to love them. Considering the length of this set I read through all of them quickly, turning the pages almost frantically. I became deeply engrossed and invested in each of these characters. I highly recommend giving this series a try. I think you will find it very worth your time and money.

This wonderful collection contains all five books in the Virginia Bluebloods series. Each book is hot, steamy, dramatic and intense and suspenseful. These BDSM romances have well written storylines, compelling characters and powerful emotions, alongside some serious topics like, grief, guilt, living with a disability and living life to the fullest. I just loved these dominate men and the women that captured their hearts. Entertaining and extremely enjoyable! I am voluntarily posting a honest review.

Shea is trying to find help for her ocd. Charlotte makes a bucket list and is ready to fulfill it. Dani's truck break down and Eli and Dale come to the rescue. I enjoyed reading this book. This was a wonderful read. I loved the storylines and plots. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

A story to loose hours enjoying reading.
I read each of these books in this wonderful series separately and loved each one. They are brilliantly written and described. All the characters are very well done. There are plenty of different elements to hold the reader's interest. I am envious of a reader finding this box set, they will be able to read them all together. Lucky them!! I had to wait for each new book to come out. I highly recommend this interesting and enjoyable story.

Fabulous stories,wonderful value

BJ Wane writes smart sext BDSM love stories. This box set consists of her 5 Virginia Blueblood stories. The storylines build from one story to the next each having an interesting plot line and sexy love stories. I liked that all the heroines were strong woman and the chemistry with their heroe(s) off the charts.
I highly recommend this series.

Virginia Blubloods...

This box set contains all five stories in the "Virginia Bluebloods" series. "Bindsided" was the first book I read by this author. I loved it then and having it in this set is great as I'm able to binge read all the books at once. Don't ask me to pick my favorite since they all have "something" special about them. Hmm...maybe I need to read them again to see if I can choose then.

All five Virginia Bluebloods in one book.Give hot alpha males and five strong women to complement and complete them. Full of challenges, suspense, and plenty of domination. Each and every story captivated me from page on til the end. I didn't want to put down. Have not read much by this author but definitely have to read more. Recommend. Recommend. Recommend!!!i

Having not read the original Virginia Blueboods Series, this boxset was a really great read. The blurb says it all, but what it called to mention was the chemistry between these alphas and the women they fall for. Each of the stories was well written, well paced, and you really can’t go wrong.......this is available free with your KU subscription!!

Romance, suspense, drama and BDSM, what's not to love about this book? Have I mentioned the great characters that abound in this set of books? Very well written with plots that are full of details and action packed - BDSM style, you might find yourself unable to put the set down until you've devoured each single book.

I originally caught up with some of these books when they came out individually but gladly got this compilation to catch up on what I missed out on. All of these books can be read completely standalone, but as characters are introduced they will continue to be mentioned in the other stories - just like any friendship. All of the stories are worthwhile but I would have liked to see more of Eli & Dale. This is a fantastic compilation and definitely worth reading.

5 Delicious Scenes

Five well written erotic stories with an underlying theme to each. These stories were not solely a lesson in the gratification of the "club" scene but a way to enlighten the reader in difficult or troubling issues in life. Problems each of us have or will encounter and with help from the right sources these obstacles can be overcome. Erotic but enlightening! Well done B.J. Wane.

Yummy, you will be sorry if you miss this

A series of stories, each better than the one before it which seems an impossible task. Delicious Doms each falling for a woman who needed their strength, humor, and love. The women each come from pasts that would make you wonder how they were able to accept bdsm. But who can resist a man who finally admits when a woman has gotten under their skin. A must read

I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.  This is a good read and a nice long one too.  A story of new and old friends, loyalty that comes with long years.  Learning someone's reality, their past, their strengths and weaknesses.  Their capacity for love and for pain.  A BDSM romance with a mystery.  Spanking,  anal , multi-players with an innocent who accepts all challenges.

I first read the Miami Masters series and really enjoyed the characters in that series and was thrilled to find that there are more delicious stories from this author. I was so excited to see that there was a box set of the Virginia Blue Bloods series. This is a great way to meet the six alpha males in this series.

This was a very well written collection and I loved every single second of it. Although I enjoyed some characters more than other the books were well worth the time invested in reading them. The hotness is off the charts and the books will leave you fanning yourself and asking for more.

All 5 books can be read as standalones, but the characters in each intertwine. 4 doms that have known each other since 1st grade, hang together, support each other, and create their own clan as each finds their love/sub. Nate & Eve, Dec & Camilla, Finn & Shea, Wes & Charlie.Then Dale and Eli from the club find Dani.
