Description
ELLIOT: Romance is one thing - obedience is another. After almost crashing my car in the Alaskan wilderness, I wake up in the muscled arms of one of the locals. He's a rugged pilot bringing supplies to my research station, but he's got more than work on his mind. His eyes tell me he likes giving orders. And I like taking them. Caleb is the most intense man I've ever met. When his plane breaks down and traps us together, his untamed dominance emerges. I'm his, and he knows it. And he demands show more total submission. We're trapped together, but it won't last forever. He's a beast of a man, and I'm in his grip. CALEB: If he wants to survive out here, he'll do as I say. I'm divorced, straight, and single, but those labels disappear when I see Elliot. He's soft and innocent--and I have him all to myself. He's not a pushover, but surviving in Alaska is no easy task. He needs a strong pair of hands to show him the ropes. Elliot awakens something in me. The desire to dominate him, to bend him to my will and hear him beg for more makes me feel alive. And I love it. I'm a hardened man with a sturdy body, but as much as I bury it, part of me wants to spoil him--and have him scream my name all night. Doesn't matter that Elliot's a man; he's the only one I want in my cockpit. In the wilderness, what I say goes. This is the first book in the Submission series. It can be enjoyed as a standalone with no cliffhanger. Readers can expect an extra spicy MM romance with several steamy scenes. Heat level: 10. show lessTags

This is fine. Very insta-love but I didn't super mind that. I just found it to be dull at parts. The summary made me think that they would have to survive in the wilderness or something when really there is very little conflict.
One petty complaint I have is that the PhD parts of this felt under-researched. Elliot is getting a PhD at one university and there are discussions of him just transferring to a different one. This is not how PhD's work and this just annoyed me a lot.
With regards to the characters. I thought they were fine. Nothing special but I did like their connections to each other once I got past the insta-love. I just never felt like I learned anything about them. Caleb is a pilot and Alaskan and Elliot is a scientist. I show more wish we had dived a little bit more into their personality and backgrounds.
As stated, the plot is not very present in this. There was definitely a little bit of overwriting, especially at the beginning. The descriptions of Alaska were very drawn out. I appreciate the attempt to really set the scene but it just felt overly flattering of Alaska and eventually it started to feel weird that the author was talking about Alaska SO MUCH.
I doubt that I'll read anything else in this series but I might read other books by this author. I didn't hate this or anything and it was a very quick read. It's just that this book didn't blow me away. show less
