Book Blurb

A hesitant Dominant. A hopeful submissive. One shared leap of faith toward forever.


Luke Redding runs The Retreat with military precision, but the one thing he can’t command is the connection he craves with a submissive of his own. Surrounded by fulfilled couples and intimate power exchanges, he’s certain fate has overlooked him—until a well-meaning friend thrusts Skye Ingham into his life. Quiet, silver-haired, and overwhelmed by the chaos of the wider BDSM scene, Skye is everything Luke doesn’t expect… and exactly what he needs.

 

Skye longs to understand his submissive desires, and Luke’s steady presence gives him the safety he’s never had. Under Luke’s guidance, Skye begins to bloom, trusting the Dominant who tests his limits with patience and care. But Luke’s deepest struggle isn’t training a new sub—it’s believing he’s worthy of Skye’s faith in him.

 

As The Retreat prepares for a grand house party, desire grows, boundaries shift, and a fragile bond strengthens into something neither man can deny. But claiming a future together means confronting fears, challenging old wounds, and making one courageous promise: trust, once given, must be protected at all costs.

 

 

Includes exclusive KU bonus scenes not in the original release.

First edition published at Pride Publishing, April 2019.
