Editor reviews

Narrator Maxine Mitchell's expressive voice goes from arch and suggestive to sensual and intimate as she performs the erotic adventures of Lauren, a doctor with a penchant for sexual domination. After a bad breakup, Lauren jets off to spend a long weekend at a private island with only the island caretaker, Joshua, and his visiting friend, Marcus, for company. Marcus initiates a seductive game of submission and control, and Lauren finds herself increasingly drawn to the shadows lurking behind Joshua's eyes. She challenges him to submit himself completely to her, but for him to do so, he must first trust her completely and reveal the dark secrets haunting him.

Summary

Book 1 in the Nature of Desire series.

Lauren is a successful doctor with a healthy attitude toward sex, unashamed of her proclivities as a sexual dominant. She wants love and a family, but she's beginning to believe there is no Mr. Right willing to stand by her in sickness and health...and be cuffed, stripped, and smacked with a riding crop. Then her friend Lisette invites her to spend a long weekend on a private island. It turns out Lisette can't come with her, but Lauren opts to go anyway, with no one for company but Joshua, the island caretaker, and his visiting friend, Marcus. Though both men are beautiful, it is Joshua that catches Lauren's attention, and not just because Marcus prefers men. Something in Josh's stormy eyes calls to her. When Marcus facilitates a game of submission and control between the three of them that will last throughout the weekend, Lauren embraces the opportunity. Josh overwhelms her with his willingness to submit to her body's desires, but her heart wants to get to the secrets behind those eyes. She is going to have to tear down his defenses and make him give her everything. And this is one Mistress who doesn't take no for an answer....

Loved it.

I read this out of order but it was nice knowing who the main characters were as I’ve read 3-4 books in this series. I loved the interplay between the three of them. Easy five stars.
