Aric Calderwood discovers that a decade as a Dom is no match for his long-repressed feelings for a woman he's known since childhood. Owner of Insolence, a BDSM club, Aric's been immersed in the lifestyle. When his best friend, the normally cocky Ainsley Connor, turns up at Insolence and offers to be his sub for the weekend, Aric is shocked. Ainsley's no submissive, but even so, Aric can't resist her. Once he touches Ainsley, Aric's control is overwhelmed by unrelenting lust and a flood of confusing emotion. The sex, both vanilla and kinky, is hotter than anything he's ever experienced. But two days of Ainsley in his bed, at his command, changes everything between them. He can't go back to just being friends. The intimacy he shared with Ainsley shows Aric what he's been missing in his life and he realizes that regardless of whether she's submissive or insolent, all he wants is her.
