When lust and deception collide, will her complete submission be enough to bind their hearts?
Treat herself to a carnal weekend at the hedonistic retreat, XTC Resorts? That's not something Claire Calderwood, a three-time loser in the relationship department would ordinarily do. But at thirty-seven, having a successful cleaning business is no longer enough. She wants a chance to let go of all responsibility, submit to a stranger's sexual demands and satisfy her darkest fantasies.
Jonathon Brierton has known his best friend's sister long enough to recognize her submissive nature. He would like nothing more than to have Claire bound naked and at the mercy of his flogger as he teaches her the sensual art of obeying her Master. At thirty-something, he's a successful real estate developer, owner of a BDSM resort -- and hopelessly in love with the older woman.
When Claire follows him to his resort, Jonathon is certain he can keep his identity secret long enough to convince her that being restrained in his stocks is something that will satisfy them both. But lies, deceit and broken hearts may not be so easy to overcome.
