One submissive… Two Masters… Three hearts…Shea O’Connor has a secret. Beneath the façade of a proper, vanilla young lady lurks a dirty girl who dreams of whips, chains and a Master to claim her. When she finally gets up the courage to explore her darkest fantasies at a local BDSM club, her world explodes with possibilities, including submission to not one but two sexy Masters. Steve Hartman … possibilities, including submission to not one but two sexy Masters.
Steve Hartman and Zach Wilder are more than just best friends; they are sensual sadists, sharing a dungeon where they train women in the art and passion of erotic submission. As they initiate Shea into the world of BDSM, peeling away layer after layer of shyness, modesty and resistance, Shea is not the only person experiencing soul-level transformation. Steve and Zach’s cardinal rule of keeping their hearts out of their training is sorely tested.
Each new experience draws Shea deeper into a world of intense D/s that leaves her breathless and longing for more. The trouble is, relationships can get complicated, especially between three. The last thing either guy expected was to fall in love—with the same girl.
Editor’s Note: While your experience will be enhanced by reading all the books in the series, Claimed by Two Masters is a full-length, stand-alone story. The series may be read in any order.

The third book in the BDSM Connection series, but it can be read as a standalone. Characters from the first two books make an appearance in this book, but you won’t miss anything if you read them out of order.
This is the first menage book I have read by this author and I enjoyed the fact that the focus was also on their relationship and the struggles and insecurities they had. being in a menage had its own problems.
I liked Shea a lot. She is a very recognisable characters which make it easy to like her and I loved she went for what she wanted and came at peace with herself.
From 101 to Master Class
While Shea is hiding behind her analytical, scientific mindset, she finally just has to explore her, so far, theoretical fascination with BDSM.
Steve and Zach, friends and professional sub trainers, are captivated by her innocence, her inexperience. When they offer to show her the allure of submission, they get more then they bargained for.
It turns out that all three are on one steep sensual learning curve. The professional aspect of their union is quickly abandoned and they embark on a very personal submission 101 journey.
Slight relationship hiccups included, they are one scorching hot triad.
This is the third book in this series and can be read as a standalone. There are appearances from the couples in the first two books. Sir Stephen and Master Zach work for Tag, the Leather Master and are part time BDSM trainers. They meet scientist Shea avidly watching a scene in the club and invite her to play. Clearly a neophyte, the men offer to train her and the dynamics between the three change in unexpected ways. I enjoyed watching Shea blossom under the guidance of her masters, and how the relationship between long time friends Zach and Steve change. Zach’s struggle to accept, and fear he has missed out, were well written. The emotional shift comes slowly for Shea had some very hot fantasies that her men help her play out. Another great book in the series.
I received an arc of this book and have voluntarily reviewed it.
This is the last book in the BDSM Connections series and for me the most emotional. I think there is a little of Shea in many of us, but unlike her we don’t have the courage to do anything about it and nor are we as lucky as her to find not one, but two fabulous men. While I think Taggart will always be my favorite, Zach and Steve come a close second.
When Zach sees Steve and Shea together claire Thompson was able to evoke a s nose of sadness so that I had tears in my eyes that stayed for the rest of the chapter. For such a strong confident Dom, Zach is more insecure about Shea than anything or anyone else. Shea is the polar opposite, she was full of insecurities and self loathing but blossomed under Steve and Zach and I think demonstrated the greatest transformation of all the heroines in the series and I was sorry to see the end.
