Who Would Like This Book:
This book is a bold, erotic romance with an intriguing twist on the usual sexual dynamics: a tough, alpha male detective as a submissive, and a strong, self-assured woman as a Domme. The chemistry between Mac and Violet absolutely crackles, and the emotional intimacy is just as compelling as the physical scenes. If you like your romances steamy, emotional, and tinged with suspense and crime, or if you're curious about power exchange and want more nuanced, believable characters, this is a must-read. Fans of love stories where both characters truly challenge and change each other will devour this.
Who May Not Like This Book:
This isn't for everyone - some readers found the BDSM scenes intense or uncomfortable, especially with the gender role reversal and certain acts that pushed boundaries. The serial killer/crime subplot also didn't work for all readers - some found it distracting from the romance or felt it resolved too conveniently. Head-hopping in the narrative and very explicit content (including consent issues) have turned some folks off entirely.

From The Publisher:
Mackenzie "Mac" Nighthorse is a highly respected homicide detective and a career cop. There isn't a dangerous situation that can back him down. However, the personal becomes uncomfortably entangled in the professional when he goes undercover in a high class BDSM club as a male submissive to find a Dominatrix who is winning the trust and then murdering her chosen partners. When his path crosses Violet Siemanski's, he realizes he's found a Mistress willing to be his ally in finding the murderess. But Violet is also going to shatter Mac's shields and make him question who he is and what he wants, a challenge more disturbing than any case he's ever worked.
