I recognize that a man can be submissive and not lose his manhood, but the same can be true that the hero can be alpha despite being a submissive brat. Whether you’re a fan of steamy new adult romances or heart-wrenching contemporary novels, Sara Cate has something to offer every reader looking for a page-turning read. Beau, the ex-boyfriend’s girl, with Emerson, the ex-boyfriend’s father whose business partner Maggie was with his son. This is an intense and taboo love story that gets you so engrossed that you simply cannot put it down.

Sara Cate dominates (“Teacher”) the development of the characters, from their characteristics to their behavior, the development of romance, the involvement of key and secondary characters. I loved the realistic awkwardness and clumsiness of Beau’s father’s relationship with Beau’s ex-girlfriend. Both characters are living their lives trying to please their parents’ ideals instead of owning what makes them truly happy and embracing their real personalities!

It’s bad enough being the only female owner of the Salacious Players’ Club, but I’m also the only one without a kink, or so I thought. I think her treatment of the taboo topics talked about in this book were mature and also very realistic. And she wants nothing more than to be an author that readers trust to give them books which are steamy yet with some well rounded characters and a strong storyline.

Beautifully, the story described Maggie and Beau’s growth and acceptance, embracing them and being comforted by the lifestyle, especially after Beau gave it up. Probably the pettiest man I’ve ever read lol We also see that Beau is an artist which really speaks volumes, as well! But he came with an offer Zara would be an idiot to pass on: be his son’s girlfriend for three months, live with both of them in some remote house, and the million bucks is hers. I am probably the only one who read it without reading the rest of the series first, but this was the book I have been looking for!As a side note, the chapter names were really funny at times and I had a giggle to myself at how perfectly they summed up the chapters! There was enough information given to where I feel like this definitely could serve as a standalone book! His growth was so evident in how he acted with Maggie at their home but also towards the uncomfortable relationships in his life.

The Sara Cate Experience means getting pulled into a story and escaping reality a bit for romances which are just as emotional as they are arousing. What starts as a secret plan to learn their D/s roles, turns onto something more that neither can let go of! I think you can be totally comfortable in your own sexuality and not feel comfortable in a sex club! We aim to provide you with hundreds of thousands of e-books for studying, working, and self-development.I actually like being alone, but I’m tired of being unfulfilled and I’m terrified the best years of my life are behind me, and unlike being a sexy rich man in his forties, I’m a thirty-four-year-old workaholic woman that never gets to play the starring role in anyone’s fantasy. If you had to have a handsome 22-year-old as your man, Beau embodied the bad boy, the tough, self-absorbed attraction and, with good reason, was unaware of the need for imposed control.

This book does get rather dark and anyone who considers themselves to be a sensitive reader should maybe skip this one. Living with his personal insecurities and taking what he wanted, he discovered that his behavior was manifested in a desire to calm chaos and turmoil, to live within a discipline that defined his boundaries and his inner chaos and insecurity calmed down Similarly, Maggie’s self-discovery was manifested through her childhood sexual repression and interpersonal relationships that hid her true self until she learned to emotionally embrace and accept her true inclinations without shame or judgement. There are a million reasons why I should stay away, but I’m tired of doing what everyone thinks I should do. Likewise, other characters and their non-traditional roles and accepted turns of phrase were portrayed in the SPC. What a twist on the traditional age gap when instead a woman discovers her inner domme, who also has a thing for brats.She strives to be a forbidden and taboo romance author that dares to tell stories that have toe-curling heat and heart wrenching plot. It was a touchstone, tangible and not swept under the rug, that added to the forbidden allure of Beau’s relationship with Maggie, his father’s business partner. If you’re ever around Sara when she starts talking about something that’s important to her, be prepared – she could go on for days! Maggie and Beau were seen interacting before they began their relationship, do you think they would have eventually found one another whether they took the quiz and joined the app or not? As both are new to the lifestyle, with BDSM all around them, I liked the discovery of each other’s sexual personalities as well as the gradual and informed acceptance of their lifestyle.
