Miami Masters #2

Master Me, Please

Rate this book
Krista Matthews thought nothing could be harder than losing her husband and Master to suicide until the man he’d entrusted her care to left also. By the time Dr. Dax Hayes returned from an overseas volunteer medical tour, she thought she was over his defection and ready to re-immerse herself in the world she needed and missed so much – without his help. One scene proves how wrong she was, and after Master Dax’s timely rescue, she agrees to let him tutor her back into the lifestyle. She just didn't count on her growing feelings for the strict Dom, or his refusal to take her over completely, the way she craves. Dr. Dax Hayes fell for Krista Matthews the minute he looked into her blue eyes and saw the sated, content look she shared with her husband, Dr. Kurt Matthews. He managed to keep his feelings and lust under control until his friend and colleague asked him to join him in gifting Krista with a ménage for her birthday. Knowing it was a mistake, but unable to resist, Dax succumbed to the temptation of this one-time scene, never realizing where it would lead. A year later, after sealing his fate with a questionable act, he flees on a guilt trip, only to return and discover nothing has changed – he still wants Krista with an ache that won’t be assuaged by anyone else. Unable to resist stepping in when Krista gets herself in trouble, Dax again gives in to temptation and aids the one woman he can never have back into the lifestyle her submissive nature needs. When Krista learns the truth, will her feelings be strong enough to forgive him, or has he gambled everything only to lose it all in the end? Publisher's This book is intended for adults only. It contains elements of power exchange and explicit scenes.

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.

Actually 4.5 stars

Master Me, Please is definitely not your typical romance novel, and in this case, that's a wonderful thing.

Surgical scrub tech Krista Matthews gets a double blow of tragedy when her husband and Dom, Dr. Kurt Matthews, commits suicide after being diagnosed with ALS. He tries to entrust her well-being to his friend Dr. Dax Hayes, but Dax's guilt (over his feelings for his friend's wife and over getting Kurt the pills that let him kill himself) causes him to leave the country on a medical mission for over a year. When Dax returns to town, he tries to befriend Krista, but she's angry at him for leaving, and getting past her grief and his guilt may be an insurmountable task for the couple.

I've complained before about shallowness and superficiality in BDSM romances, and this book is the answer to that complaint. It's deep, emotional, and real. It's not just about romance and kinky sex, it's about healing and forgiveness and love.

Another amazing story by Ms. Wane! It's the second in the series, but a standalone. It's filled with loss, pain, angst, as well as, sexiness, tenderness, and a whole lot of great story!! I love all the characters, both the main ones, Dax and Krista, and all the ones I know we are going to get to read about in future books. I'm not giving spoilers, but Krista is totally likable and Dax is a Dom that sometimes you'd love to wring his neck. This is a great 5 star read!

I've read a few books from this author now and I'm consistently presented with a gook read with well drawn characters in an interesting storyline. This book is no exception. This is Book 2 in the series so we're still getting to know the characters slightly more than in the previous book. This book presents an interesting dilemma for Dax when he finds himself drawn to a widow that he is attracted to - against his own wishes. This book delivers not only an interesting read but also puts some ethical questions into what on the surface is just a romance. i really enjoyed it.

Well-written, original BDSM novel

BJ Wane has a wonderful way of developing believable characters and storylines. Krista and Dax's rocky relationship had so many facets to uncover. The story at times heartbreaking, just drew me in.
This was a great addition to the Miami Masters series and I look forward to the secondary characters' stories.

I received an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

In the second entry in the Miami Masters series, we meet Dr. Dax Hayes, just back from a tour with Doctors without Borders, and Krista, the widow of the colleague who committed suicide rather than suffer through the agonizing death of ALS. Krista and her late husband/Master are also the reason Dax left town. Well, Dax is back and he's as attracted to Krista as he was before he left and Krista is both angry at him leaving when she needed him and as attracted as ever. The story continues with Dax agreeing to help her get back into the BDSM scene while agonizing over his desire to have her and her repeated hurts as she cannot understand the way he keeps pulling away from him. As usual, a happy ending ensues for all. We get to continue getting to know the rest of the "Miami Masters" in the book. Sandie and Zach are back, and the other 5 begin to develop individual personalities as well.

In book 2, we get Dax and Krista's story. Emotional and sometimes hard to read, there were times I really wanted to just smack Dax in the head. Of course, Krista needed to be shook also. When Krista's husband and Master dies, she is devastated. Serving her Master was her life. Dax had spent one night with Kurt and Krista before he passed away and was always in love with her so when Kurt passed away, he fled, taking a secret with him that could easily damaged his career as a heart surgeon. When he comes back after almost two years, his feelings for Krista are still there but she is upset that he left her floundering. These two stumbled around each for a lot of the book until Dax's secret is revealed by a jealous nurse who wants Dax for herself. Will Krista forgive him? And will Dax finally admit how he feels about Krista to himself and to her? It was gut wrenching watching these two fight their feelings for each other. I loved the story.

Master Me, Please is the second book in incredible author BJ Wane’s Miami Master’s Series. This series has been full of hot sexy scenes and dashing doms. Not to mention some very sassy subs. BJ has been one of my favorite BDSM writers for quite a while now, and with every series she writes, she gets better and better!

Dax has had a crush on his surgical partner’s wife for a long time. He was even lucky enough to participate in a menage, but now that Krista’s a widow, he’s kept as far away as possible. After being gone for 18 months, Dax still tries to keep his distance, but Krista decides it’s time to get back in the saddle again and if Dax doesn’t want to keep his promise to his late partner, she’ll go elsewhere. Dax finds her in a bad situation, and saves her. But will he continue to deny himself? Grab yourself a copy of Master Me, Please and find out!

THE LOVE OF A MASTER

I am always excited when I see a new book by BJ Wane, and for it to be a new series, is especially exciting. The second book in the Miami Masters is completely different than book one, Bound and Saved. While this is a series and has many of the main characters from the first book, this will read as a stand-alone. The story is of Dr. Dax Hayes, his partner, Dr. Kurt Matthews, and Kurt’s submissive wife, Krista.

The plot will take the reader on an emotional roller coaster ride that is riddled with many twists and turns. With the unexpected diagnosis of ALS that leads to death for Kurt, will have his young widow, Krista, needing support from people she can trust. Knowing that Dax is also a Master, and able to understand the unique and sometimes sheltered lifestyle of D/s she is shattered when rather than being there for her, he avoids her after Kurt’s death and funeral and suddenly leaves for eighteen months with Doctors without Borders.

Krista is lost without her Master, without that support and control that she craved in her marriage. She has no one to really rely on except a friend at the hospital who is not into the BDSM lifestyle but supports her. The grief is overwhelming but she eventually will return to her job at the hospital, but not to the BDSM world that she misses.

Dax will return to Miami and his friends. When he is asked to assist with a problem at some of the BDSM clubs, he will happen upon Krista in a bad scene at the Dungeon. Her first time back to a BDSM club, she will avoid the one she frequents with Kurt, Chains. Dax avoiding her is one thing, seeing her with an inexperienced Dom who isn’t watching body language or her using her safeword is another.

What will come of these two that have underlying feelings for each other, but each is guilty of martyrdom because of those feelings? Dax is feeling guilty for assisting his friend, and for the feelings he has harbored for Krista. Krista would never cheat on her husband and Master, but she enjoyed the ménage that Kurt set up with Dax for her birthday shortly before his diagnosis. What did she do to upset Dax and have him abandon her after he promised Kurt to watch out for her?

There is so much angst and even anger between Dax and Krista after he returns. Unanswered questions, feelings, emotions, and guilt all play a role. Then for him to invite her to a private BDSM outing on the yacht owned by him and his friends will leave her frustrated and him too. Will they find their way and explore their feelings, or will the past get in their way?

The story has strong BDSM scenes, including group parties, voyeurism, exhibition, spankings, and explicit sex scenes, and ménage a trios. Each story in this series will take the reader on an amazing journey, and I look forward to the next book.

Master Me, Please is the 2nd book in the Miami Masters Series. I got this book on Kindle Unlimited. This time it’s Dr. Dax Hayes & Krista Matthews turn for their story. These hunky men are all friends. Zach, Dax, Jackson, Miles, Sean, Troy & Trevor (Twin brothers) and they all have books that can be read as standalones but, your reading would be enhanced if read in order.

So, it looks like this is the order of books in these standalones within a series.

1. Bound and Saved - Zachary “Zach” Allen-Vancuren & Cassandra “Sandy” Bowlin
2. Master Me, Please – Dr. Dax Hayes & Krista Matthews
3. Mastering Her Fear – Jackson Davenport & Julie Martin
4. Bound to Submit – Miles Cavenaugh & Hope Wallace
5. His to Master and Own – Sean Bates & Alessa Alexander
6. Theirs to Master – Troy & Trevor Carlson & Paige Wilcox

I am finding that I want to work my way through these sexy as sin books as fast as I can read them!

Kurt & Krista Matthews shared in a threesome with Dax. Kurt commits suicide due to a disabling disease. Now Krista is alone and Dax has been wanting her. He goes off with Doctors without borders to avoid how much he wants her and now he is back. He just hopes she never finds out his secret and why he can’t have her.

I am really loving the Miami Masters and Master Me, Please and can’t wait to read book #3 Which will be Jackson & Julie’s story. 4.5 stars for Master Me, Please!

3 adorable stars



I had a lot of troubles getting into this story and i believe that the majority of the reasons for it is because i didn't get a chance to read the first part of the series beforehand. In a way, i wish i had read it, but at the same time, i don't because i wish i could have connected with these characters from their collective loss after the death of one of their own.
Considering that this was a new author with an entire new style that i had to get used to, i'm not saying that i won't be picking up a book from BJ Wayne in the future, only that right now, i simply couldn't place myself in the story as one of the characters, so i found myself racing through the book rather than savour it.

Similar to first book

The series is about seven friends, all dominants. This story concentrates on Dax, a heart surgeon. He has always loved Krista, but she was married and submissive to her master and husband. When she is widowed, Dax has such a feeling of guilt over something he was involved in and so unworthy of her that he leaves for eighteen months.
On returning, he realises that Krista is not coping well without the BDSM lifestyle she enjoyed with her husband, and when she plucks up the courage to visit a BDSM club alone and puts herself into danger, he steps in and volunteers to be her son temporarily.

The content of these books, BDSM, does not change. All take part in the private yacht. Only the setting changes slightly, so it is practically reading the same again. Part of the plot was spying on a new club, but that fizzled out, leaving the reader wondering what happened.

Compelling, steamy, true life

What does a young married sub do when her husband and Master die? How does she move on after realizing the calm and satisfaction of that life? Krista doesn't know how to move forward after the one man her husband seemed to have selected for her anticipating his death leaves town. This story of how they try to each find peace touched me deeply. The characters are well written and jump off the page. The jumble of emotions and bdsm scenes rang true. I cried, laughed, hot all hot and needy. Great book, getting entire series.

Come Too Me

This is a very tear pulling story... I cried several times it was very emotion invoking. You sorta get two separate love stories for one submissive. Unfortunately the first one ends in death... and in someways is why the final love story happens as it does... this book spends some time on the yacht and at her canal side home and the hospital... its sorta Unfortunate they don't spend any time at his house... hope its near water too as I got the impression she found the water soothing. I wonder which will be the next of his 7 friends to fall. It is a good book.

Wow, this book is just incredible. Steamy and sexy but with a deep emotional depth. Krista and Dax's relationship is complex and complicated. Pain, guilt and regret add plenty of angst to this read. The passion and attraction between these two is intense, powerful and hot. Can these two overcome the past to embrace the future? Read this wonderful book to see if they get their HEA. I am posting a totally honest, voluntary review after reading this book.

I got this book in exchange for a voluntary review. Dr. Dax had always been jealous of his friend Dr. Kurt's relationship with his submissive and wife Krista. When Kurt develops ALS and asks Dax for a way to die, he gives him Ambien. Will Krista be able to handle the death of her master and husband ? Will Dax step up like he promised Kurt and take over as dom to Krista ?

Loving this series

Great series. No cliffhangers. Hurray! Each book seems to have the same general theme. Enlightening. But there is a conclusion to each book. Nothing is more annoying then to be left in a mid free fall. So "Thank you" B.J. Ware for allowing your readers to have stimulating experience that has climax to enjoy!

review by Leann

I gave this book 4.5 stars!


This is the second book in the Miami Master series and I have to say I fell in love with Krista and Dax. We briefly met Dr. Dax in book one at the end and I was intrigue with what his story would in tittle, little did I know that we would have to wait long to get it.

Krista is a surgical tech nurse that has worked under Dax for years, she is married and a submissive to her husband that is Dax partner. For her birthday one year her husband gives her a threesome with Dax, herself and her Master. It was one of the best nights of Krista and Dax's lives. Shortly after that Her master finds out that he sick and will not make it much longer. With the help of Dax he commits suicide. With the guilt eating up and the attraction he feels for Krista he knows he needs to leave. What better way then to Drs without Boarders for 18 months. When he returns he finds that his attraction for Krista is stronger than ever.

Krista has struggle since the day her husband left her, she feels like she has no purpose in life and wants some one to call the shots like her Master did. She is back to work but that all she does is work, yoga and sleeps. When Dax comes back she has mix feelings because he was the one that should have been there to take care of her. When she decides to go back to the Club to try her hand a new dom it doesn't go as planned and Dax rescues her. Dax decides to take Krista under his domination until she feel like she can handle a new dom. What happens when both cant let their feelings not show anymore? What happens when Krista finds out that Dax helped her husband?

This book was totally different that Bound and Saved and I found that it kept me wanting more and more. Cant wait to see what we get in the next series.

review by gemma
Ah Krista and Dax! From the first page I was totally hooked. This story has such a rollercoaster of emotions and the characters' journeys are anything but straightforward. I haven't read the first book in the series but didn't feel like I missed out on anyway as it was such a great standalone.

From Krista's loss at the very beginning of the book, through to her finding belonging again in the bdsm world she knows she needs, the book is well written, very steamy and such an enjoyable read.

All the characters are really likeable and have their own little journeys that they are on. The yacht sounds like a rather exciting place where a lot of the characters spend considerable time having fun ;)

If you are after a sweet romance and an easy read, mixed with considerable spanking and kink, this is the book for you! Enjoy!

Master Me, Please is the second book in this fabulous new series by author BJ Wane’s Miami Master’s Series. Krista and Dax's rocky relationship had so many ups and downs, so many trials and tribulations. I felt the heartbreak and pain which was a thread running thru their relationship and I loved how the author wrote their romance. It was a 2nd chance romance but a unique romance at that.
Dax has had a crush on his surgical partner’s wife for a long time. He was able to keep hidden his feelings for Krista and considered himself very lucky when he got to be a part of ménage with Krista that her husband set up. Then things take a terrible turn when her husband killed himself. Now that Krista is a widow, Dax keeps himself far away from the tempting widow. He even goes out of the country for almost 2 years. Krista thought Dax was her friend and instead he left her without a friend, someone to relay on. So Krista decides it’s now time to get back in saddle again and since Dax doesn’t want to keep his promises to his late partner, she’ll go elsewhere for her BDSM needs. Only that doesn’t end up so well for Krista and Dax saves her from a bad situation. Their journey back to each other is rocky and the path back to one another is marred with emotional wounds but Dax learns that Krista is the woman for him. How fast does he come to that relatization and will Krista be willing to accept him in her life after all the time he has spent fighting those feelings when he could have been with her , in harmony? I don’t want to give out any spoilers but this is one story that is amazing with its emotional touchstones along with the passionate sexual scenes that aren’t overdone but just right and I look forward to the next book.

My Rating: 4.7 stars *****

I am voluntarily writing this review for this book I received through Booksprouts ARC

Krista had been married to Kurt and they worked with Dax. Kurt wanted to surprise his wife for her birthday. Kurt invited Dax for a ménage for Krista's
Dax knew he should have not cross the line but he couldn't help himself when it came to Krista. Dax was feeling somewhat guilty as he couldn't get Krista out of his mind. Dax home for his friend's funeral and seeing Krista again made him think about what happened and Dax had his own secret. Dax decided to take the 18 month assignment for Doctors Without Borders.
Dax being home he reconnected with his friends. Zachary invited Dax to the yacht which Zachary put all his friends as co owners. Dax goes for a sail with his friends and submissive but all the while thinking of Krista. Dax invites Krista to spend time with his friends Zachary and Sandie. Sandy and Krista decided to keep in touch because neither had many girlfriends to talk with.
Dax takes Krista back to Zachary yacht the next weekend to meet his friends.
Dax was trying so hard to stay neutral with Krista as much as he wanted her he knew it would be better to just play. Dax asked his friend Sean to come and play with them. Dax's friend could see how much he was in love with her but denying it to himself also because of his secret. He knew he had to tell her before he fell harder but he never got the chance to tell her. She found out when her nemesis told her at first she couldn't believe that it was true. She no longer wanted to be at her job so she left and called her boss to quit. Will Dax go after Krista to explain or does he think he has already lost her? Light BDSM
Excellent Book

Dax Hayes has loved Krista from the moment he set eyes on her. Her husband arranged a threesome for her birthday, and he had picked Dax to be the second in the menage. But not long after that Krista"s husband took her own life, leaving Dax to look after her. But Dax leaves after the funneral for 18 months, he joined the Doctors without Boarders team. Krista wasnt very happy he left , he was surposed to look out for her, but she will soilder on without him.
Now hes back, only to find that Krista is a another BDSM club, and the club is getting a bad reputation, he is there to look around to find any Doms misbehaving. He sees Krista with another Dom and she has said her safe word, coming to her rescue, he takes her home and tells her that he will provide the necessary release and control she needs. Soon Dax stuffs up once more, he loves Krista but can he win her back and actually own up to her about his feelings..

I totally enjoyed this second book in the series from BJ Wane, She really is a great Author, plus i llook forward to reading about the other men to see if they also get stung by the love bug

Few things to cover quickly.. This is a BDSM book with pain play and very graphic scenes so if that's not your thing I'd avoid this book.
This story begins with Krista losing her husband and master. And Dax who is the hero having a unhealthy obsession with Krista even before Kurt her husband died, doesnt help they were coworkers and friends.
Dax decides to run off for almost 2 years, after Kurt dies and leaves Krista on her own husband and masterless.
He comes back and trys to stay away from Krista but it proves, to be harder then he imagines. He still holds guilt over something he's hiding from Krista too, so he fights every step of the way. Will Krista find a new master? Will Dax finally lie his, guilt to rest and find his submissive.
I give this story 3 stars I love BDSM books but this one just wasn't fabulous to me, more meh. But if your looking for some sexy taboo scenes that are on the darker side then give this a shot 🙂

BJ Wane is a new author for me and I was pleasantly surprised.
The Miami Masters is based on 7 best friends that meet when they were troubled teens. Book 2 features the story of the Dr. Dax. I was surprised that his story was next, but we do get tidbits of each of the other good friends. We again visit Zach and Sandie on the ‘boat’. This story is a bit deeper since Krista is trying to put her life back together after the death of her Master and husband. We learn why Dax really left for 18 months and are there to see him try to come to grips with what happened to his friend. I really enjoyed the letter to Krista from her husband. I enjoyed the banter and loyalty between the 7 best friends and look forward to getting each of their stories.

There is so much emotion swirling through this story; a complex tale of love, loss, and starting over. It also touches on how we’re able to forgive what we once thought was unforgivable. This time we get up close and personal with Dax, learning what it was that drove him to volunteer overseas and the ghosts that continue to drive him now that he’s back. Krista is a widow. And even though a great deal of time has passed since her husband took his life, she’s still trying to come to terms with how he prematurely ended their time together. Dax and Krista had an instant connection even while her husband was alive. Dax vainly tries to fight it, but Krista’s in a place where she’s ready to embrace it – she just needs to out-stubborn the dominant man her heart’s set on. Like the previous book, the heat between them sizzles off the pages. I can’t wait to read the next book.
