A year ago Jenna
Parnelle spent one night of passionate submission with Jackson Ramsey
before he sent her away. He believed his jealousy would destroy their
relationship. She believes he was slumming with the chubby girl from the
poor side of town. A year later, irresistibly drawn to each other,
Jenna agrees to be Jackson’s sub for three weeks, intending to get him
out of her system once and for all while refusing to risk her heart
again.
We are now getting some insight to
Jackson, Cade’s brother and Jenna, Addison’s best friend. This being the
second book in the series, I feel you could read it as a standalone and not be
lost, but Cade and Addison’s story is so worth the time so I recommend you go
in order for this series.
Jenna was a chubby girl from the wrong
side of the tracks when she met Addison in school. Forming a strong best
friend bond Jenna was automatically accepted into the Ramsey clan as Addison
was. Jenna has felt that spark with Jackson since she was a teenager and
had a chance to seal the deal with him once by the river but he left. She had
another chance at making him hers after a near death experience, but once again
he walked away. Now she is a sexy hot woman who has a career and is
getting ready to move back to the small town she escaped from years ago.
Wanting to help Addison with her wedding means she is going to be in close
contact with Jackson. I found Jenna to be a resilient woman. Being
made fun of and gossiped about because of where she came from, she kept her
head high and refused to let it defeat her. She was the one person
outside of the Ramsey’s that saw Addison for who she really was, not the
spoiled brat that her parents didn’t want. She also knew that she was a natural
born submissive trapped in a stubborn, head strong woman’s body. This was
going to be interesting.
Jackson and his four brothers were
adopted after their parents died. The life he grew up in was abusive and
saturated in drinking and drugs. Being told he was just like the man he
had grown to despise he vowed to never love a woman and if he did, he would
make sure there was plenty of distance between them. He knew after the
river and pool events Jenna had his heart and it was going to crush her for him
to abandon her but his fear of crushing her with his anger and genetics would
have been harder to deal with. Knowing that Jenna saw herself as the fat
girl from the wrong side of the tracks ate at his soul, he wanted so much for
her to see the beautiful woman she really was but the risks were too
great.
In this book we, as well as the
brothers, learn the truth about their parents and the local law
enforcement. Knowing the truth now and seeing a tattoo that shocked him,
was all it took for him to stake his claim on Jenna, but was it too late?
Jenna’s pain was deep but her love for Jackson could be deeper. I loved
watching these two navigate their way through the muck and craziness that they
excel in creating. They were funny and serious, infuriating and
endearing. Those two ran the whole range of emotions and brought the
reader to their knees at time.
While I love Cade and Addison, I do
wish this book had been less on them. It was nice to see what they are
doing and how their life is progressing but at times it felt Jackson and Jenna
were secondary characters instead of the prime focus. I strongly suggest
if you love hot BDSM reads with a twist of mystery and suspense you will find
this series to be a favorite. I am going to be starting the third book,
Their Temporary Sub, next so make sure you keep an eye out for my review coming
soon.
I was born in Utah but I’ve
traveled throughout America and lived in sunny California, hot and dry west
Texas, and the mountains of Colorado. I wrote my first erotic romance in the
summer of 2013. It was accepted and published that same year. Since then I’ve
written three more books in the Doms of Club Mystique series. At this time I’m
busy writing the fifth and final book in the series. My heroes are tough
cowboys with military backgrounds and my heroines are strong, sassy and
submissive. I like my readers to laugh, and cry, so I put a lot of emotion in
my books as well as suspense and happy endings.
Other than writing, I
love to read, travel, garden, swim with my family, and go to the local drive-in
movie with a carload of friends and a huge container of home-made cheese
popcorn.
