If you've ever thought of reading a book to learn what BDSM is all about from a romance book prospective, this book just might be a good start as the author works with her lead characters to understand their own feelings on the subject.

Gracie left two years ago when her then boyfriend, Cade, told her they were over. For the next two years she worked to make herself the woman that Cade wanted her to be. When she came back she immediately went to him, showing him that she could take all his dominance and be his submissive. 

Cade had been looking for Gracie since she left him. He thought he was letting her go for her own good, but at the same time knew he would miss her terribly. Now she's back and so much different then she was before yet the same. Now he's worried that he has asked so much of her that she's move of a submissive then she wants or needs to be. 

Good dialog and by play between the two characters. The pace of the story fits the subject matter, however hardcore BDSM will be looking for something with a faster pace and a little more scene action.

Description:

Can the sub teach the Dom to play?

Natural submissive Gracie Miller thought she had found her other half in Cade Jameson. Not only did he help her through a difficult time in her life, in the bedroom he brought her more pleasure than she could have ever imagined. They seemed perfect for each other.

Cade knew what he wanted in the bedroom. Gracie brought out his domineering side and ignited his passion. But he feared he was too dominant for this beautiful, naïve girl, who was so young and impressionable, so he ended their relationship.

Two and a half years later, Gracie returns to town a new woman. She had moved to the city and found a "Master" who showed her what she was truly capable of. Now she's back and wants to show Cade exactly what kind of submissive she could be for him.

But after hearing all that she's experienced, Cade now wonders if he's dominant enough to satisfy her. Can he be the man Gracie needs him to be?
