For her, BDSM is just a fantasy… Until he makes it all too real…

Hannah has written dozens of BDSM romance novels, each one more successful than the last. There's just one problem—she has no hands-on experience with any of the things she writes about.

When a good friend invites her to a collaring ceremony at The Enclave, a BDSM community known for its slave training program, Hannah leaps at the opportunity. Little does she dream that, before the night is over, she's going to experience her own dungeon scene, including a delicious flogging at the hands of a tattooed bad boy.

Mason, chef at The Enclave and a hardcore player in the scene, is intrigued when he's asked to handle the obviously clueless wannabe who's clearly way out of her league. While the scene is hot, he shrugs off his attraction. He's into knives, edge play and 24/7 submission, not BDSM lite.

When Hannah is offered—and accepts—a week's stay for some D/s training, Mason watches from the sidelines, waiting for her to crash and burn. But there's something there—a spark of genuine submission—that catches his attention and won't let go. When he offers her the chance for a more intensive slave training experience, Hannah accepts.

Only to discover she's in way, way over her head…
