Raine Kendall has been in love with her boss, Macen Hammerman, for years. Determined to make the man notice that she’s a grown woman with desires and needs, she pours out her heart and offers her body to him—only to be crushingly rejected. But when his friend, very single, very sexy Liam O’Neill watches the other Dom refuse to act on his obvious feelings for Raine, he resolves to step in and do whatever it takes to help Hammer find happiness again, even rousing his friend’s possessive instincts by making the girl a proposition too tempting to refuse. But he never imagines that he’ll end up falling for her himself.
Hammer has buried his lust for Raine for years. After rescuing the budding runaway from an alley behind his exclusive BDSM Dungeon, he has come to covet the pretty submissive. But tragedy has taught him that he can never be what she needs. So he watches over her while struggling to keep his distance. Liam’s crafty plan blindsides Hammer, especially when he sees how determined his friend is to possess Raine for his own. Hammer isn’t ready to give the lovely submissive over to any other Dom, but can he heal from his past and fight for her? Or will he lose Raine if she truly gives herself—heart, body, and soul—to Liam?
5 Stars
Raine is in love with her boss, but Macen Hammer isn't just her boss. He's the man who literally finds her on the street, takes her into his home, and provides the means for her to get an education. The semblance of a "Big Brother". However, that's where the semblance ends, as Raine wants nothing more than for Hammer to see her as a woman; a woman in love with him. What Raine doesn't realize is Hammer has been fighting his feelings for her all along. Yet, he felt she could do better than him.
Raine desperately wants to training as a submissive but Hammer refuses to train her. So he enlists the help of his friend, Liam. This pairing blows up in Macen's face, when Liam and Raine fall for each other.
This story has all the love, hate, angst, regret, and LOTS of steamy sex...that you would find in a love triangle. I was Team Liam...then Team Hammer, then Liam.... And yelling at my Kindle several times. I loved it!!!
***Cliffhanger warning*** - There is a cliffhanger, but book #2 - The Young and the Submissive, is already released.

ISABELLA LAPEARL
My name is Isabella and I am a new Author of Erotic Fiction. I have recently published two short stories, one a stand-alone "Connexions" and the other is the first book in a series called The Quickening and is entitled "Scandalous." The next two in the series, will be coming out in 2013 and are called "Momentum" and "Geminus" respectively.
December 4th 2012 was a WOW day of biblical proportions for me personally. My first novel was published, entitled "One Dom to Love" co-written by Best Selling New York Times Author, Shayla Black and by Author Jenna Jacob. I can't even begin to express how privileged and thrilled I was to work with both these wonderful, incredible women, and how proud I am to call them friends. "One Dom to Love" is the first book in The Doms of her Life series and for those chomping at the bit already after finishing this book, you'll be delighted to know that Book 2 is currently being written.
