I love all of Jane Henry's characters and books, so whenever a new one comes out, I have to hop right to it and read it. I always fall in love with all her characters, but Zoe, in this one? I think that Zoe is my favorite character. She's feisty, she's mouthy, she's uber-independent, she's so not submissive, and she's just wonderful. There really isn't anything about Zoe I don't love.

At the wedding reception of her friend and partner Zack and his wife Bea, Zoe gets a wee bit tipsy and starts dancing with Brax. Ignoring Bea's warning to stay away from him, she decides that she's going to leave with him. Instead of taking her home, Brax takes her to Verge, the BDSM club where he's the dungeon monitor, and they have their wicked way with each other.

Zoe figures that it's nothing but a one night stand, but it turns out that there is so much more going on.

There is a lot of spanking and domination going on in here, but there's so much more. Zoe isn't a sub and trying to figure out what's going on is really hard for her because she just doesn't have the same point of reference. Brax is a good man, if a little bit of a butthead on occasion. It's obvious that he cares a lot about what he does, no matter what he's doing. He takes a lot of pride in doing the job right and caring for the people in need of it. I really love his character, and I think he works well with Zoe. I don't think that any of the other guys we've seen so far in this series would've worked half as well.
