After reading the first two books in this series, which I loved, I was really looking forward to Brit and Damien's story. Once again the writing is impeccable, told from a dual perspective I got all of the feelings from both parties in detail, which I really enjoyed.
I didn't feel that I related to this book as much as I did the other two; yes, the story was good but I felt there was a lot less angst in this book than the last two. It was easier going with a slow burn. This story was predominantly focused on the two main character's relationship through the book.
It was an emotional book, especially where Damien was concerned and I was drawn to this man from the very start. He was in turmoil and tried so hard to please Brit in all ways possible, at times, of course, he made mistakes but this is what made him so endearing. I really felt a connection to Damien. Brit, on the other hand, grated on me. She came across as whiny and never seemed completely happy with her lot no matter how hard Damien tried, she always wanted more, was always finding fault in their lives.
The secondary characters lightened the story for me and were a good addition. I can't believe I'm saying this but considering the content of this book I didn't feel there was enough sex in it; but what there was, was written well.
Although it was an emotionally frustrating story at times, I would be happily reading the book one minute and the next, I wanted to throw my kindle at the wall or jump into the story and give Brit a damn good shake. This is a good all-rounder but not my favourite of this series so far.

This book could use a good editor. But does it really need one? I enjoyed reading it but frankly, though I love men a whole lot I would not ever want to be anyone's "sub". Still, I think that the book attempts to blend love and commitment in life to the world of bondage, and who can say if this is possible. It is a good read, but don't expect D.H. Lawrence.
