I have to say, since the last book, I missed them. I actually craved to read this second book of the Deviations series because I HAD to know what happens with them. It didn’t disappoint. There was a lot of hot action, a lot of hot scenes, and a lot of romance. This book was definitely more romantic than the first, and emotional in a different way. In this second book, Tobias and Noah have to find balance between having a regular romantic relationship and having a relationship based on the exchange of power. In this one, Tobias examines his weaknesses as Noah comes to terms with his. Their dynamic and struggles show that not even the best Dom in the world is infallible; no matter how strong we are, we break down, we screw up. We’re not perfect. I can’t wait to read number 3. ( )

A great sequel to an equally great first novel. This book brought a layer of emotion that the other one was too early for. As the relationship of the two main characters, Tobias and Noah grows, so does the loving nature outside of BDSM. Their exploration of balance and consolidation was a new element and an honest concern when taking part in a serious relationship. Even a Dom can be tender, even a Dom has weaknesses. Sometimes, power exchange isn't what either party in the relationship needs. This book brought that to forefront. In the book, we saw that Tobias, the Grand Dom, is not always perfect and stitched together. And we saw that Noah, submissive though he is, can handle any situation that comes to him. Domination also featured from stellar scenes with secondary characters like Phantom's struggle with his past. ( )

In Deviations: Submission, we are introduced to Tobias and Noah, a Dom and his sub. We got to watch as boundaries were established and a relationship began.

Now, in Deviations: Domination, their relationship continues to grow. This growth is not without setbacks, though, but Tobias and Noah overcome each problem as it arises, becoming closer in their Dom(Master)/sub relationship. We get to see more of Phan and learn a little about his life (can't wait for more) and Tobias, Noah, and Phan are in a 'scene', which is HOT!

Near the end of this book, Tobias gifts Noah with a collar to show His complete ownership of Noah. All in all, this is a lovely addition to the Deviations series and I look forward to reading more. ( )

Tobias and Noah continue their relationship and work out some issues. Liked this book as much as the first one and finished it equally as fast. ( )

This is the sequel to Deviations: Submission. "Submission" left the reader as the two characters, Tobias and Noah, began to move beyond simple dominant and submissive--falling in love. That book explored the BDSM world with Noah, the submissive, as the focus. "Domination" switches the focus to Tobias. These two are developing a relationship, and they have issues to overcome just as any other couple does.

This series is excellent; well-written, fast paced, with fully realized characters (both supporting and main). Another book featuring some of the supporting cast as main characters would be more than welcome. I understand the third book in the series will be coming out April 07 and the fourth in Fall 07. Yeah!

I never expected a BDSM-themed book to have such a powerful love story, but there it is. Read these two books--now. ( )
