usually I don’t like stories with BDSM but all of these guys teach their woman about it and do so in a loving patient way each of the stories have someone in trouble that the security firm need to protect and get the bad people they do an excellent job and the guys have sizzling panty melting romance with their woman and they all have a happy ending I will read more books in this series
This is a three book collection, it is the first three books in this series. I give all three books a 5 star rating. These are well written BDSM stories so please remember this if you decide to get these books. I loved the characters. Samantha Cole did a great job with these stories and I will be getting the rest of the series. I would encourage everyone to get this series.
I loved this book, could hardly put it down because I had to see what happened next!
I love this series. I have binge read it because I keep wanting more of the Trident boys.
LEATHER & LACE:
Kirsten wants to write about a BDSM club, but she has no experience at all. She seeks to do research and Devon is more than happy to help her. Devon is an ex-Nave SEAL and a BDSM club owner. When these two get together, the story heats up. Devin takes it slow, and Kirsten realizes she has been hiding a part of herself. I love the vanilla introduction to BDSM stories and this one tops them all. Samantha Cole always delivers a hot, sexy story.
Gunnar Qualen and Jenna St. Claire are a perfect narrating team for this story. Gunnar has a voice that brings out the alpha in the males. Jenna has an innocence about her voice that fit perfectly for Kirsten as she explored her research. I love listening to their narration and it enhanced the experience of this story.
HIS ANGEL:
Angie finds herself needing protection and hires the Trident Security. Ian has been fighting his feelings for her and is now thrown into her life fulltime. The chemistry between these two melts the pages. I enjoyed the push and pull Ian had to become close to Angie. Once again, the Trident boys, past Navy Seals work together and bring this story to life. His Angel is action packed and full of suspense, but romance is always at the top of the list.
Donovan Kane narrates this story to life. He has a smooth and easy to listen to voice. Kane easily transitions from male to female characters and keeps the story flowing. I enjoyed this narration and cannot wait to jump into the next book.
WAITING FOR HIM:
Imagine finding out that your first love is no longer dead! That is exactly what happens to Ben. He never really got over the loss of his first love Kat. Then one day, Kat walks back into his life seeking help. That is only the beginning of the drama filled story. The third installment in this series, and it is different from all the others. Ben gets a second chance with his first love, one that he never thought could happen. Watching as Ben tried to accept what happened and resolve his own internal struggles with it is what makes this story so addicting. I could not put it down. This one really tugged at my heart. It left me wanting more.
Donovan Kane once again, delivers a perfect narration of the Trident boys. He brings out the alpha in them all, but with Ben, Kane is able to bring out his hurt. Kane narrates Ben to pull at heartstrings and bring out all the feels. I really enjoyed this narration and cannot wait for the next book.
I re-read these books 1) because it was around 3 years ago and I had the feeling that I didn’t know the stories anymore. 2) I didn’t review the first time I read these books I wasn’t aware of the importance of a review.
LEATHER AND LACE, is the story of Kristen and Devon, I love Kirsten’s personality she is sweet but stands her ground and for me Devon is my favourite. He is sweet,overprotective and naughty but very much a dom,
Re reading is enjoyable, Samantha has created a very good series. This book has suspense, romance, hot scenes, and BDSM scenes. A laugh and a cry. You can not go wrong with this series. If you start reading you can not stop.
HIS ANGEL, is about Ian and Angelina.
Ian is Bossman and is really bossy and Angelina is more Sassy than Kristen and perfect for Ian. Ian is also overprotective, Bossy, he also has a playful side.
This is easy to read, suspenseful, a lot of romance and hot BDSM scenes. It is vividly written and full of humour.
WAITING FOR HIM, is a sadder story. Kat and Bennie have a history. And after many years they meat again. What happens then is one rollercoasters.
This book is full of Love, romance suspense, and BDSM scenes, I love this series so much
The books are real page turners all of them.
I recommend this whole series.
They were all three interesting. A lot of action, guys who tried but couldn’t give up their women in the end.
The first book was really good- Devon and Kristin; She’s a writer researching the BDSM lifestyle and Devon is the caring but strong Dom and perfect at initiating her. Although it’s very good there seems to be things skipped over in their story.
Book 2- His Angel. Ian and Angel are great together, but she tends to be too independent, and ultimately gets into a stupid situation.
Book 3- should’ve been about Jake or one of the others. Not the youngest of the group. Very irritating.
5 stars LEATHER AND LACE.. Devon is a former SEAL, owner of Trident Security, and co owner of a BDSM club. Devon never dates a woman outside of the club until he meets Kristen. Kristen is recently divorced and a romance writer. She just moved to Tampa a few months ago and is getting settled in. She’s at a nearby pub when she meets Devon. He’s attracted to her but he thinks his buddy asked her out first. Kristen is researching BDSM and takes a tour of a club which so happens to belong to Devon. He takes her out and they spend the weekend together but once it’s over, Devon doesn’t want it to end. Someone has targeted the SEAL team and it’s a race to find the assassin before someone else is killed. Edge of your seat suspense and action, with extremely hot sex. BDSM with spanking and ménage. ********** 5 stars for HIS ANGEL Ian, a former SEAL, co owns Trident Security and a BDSM club. When he sets his eyes on Brody’s neighbor, he is instantly attracted. Angie lives next door to Brody and has been looking for her Mr. Right. When she meets Ian, she’s shocked to find out he’s a Dom. Angie’s best friend, Jimmy, is a DEA agent and is about to go undercover and asks Ian to protect while he’s gone. After getting stood up, Ian asks Angie out and it’s fireworks from there on. When Jimmy’s cover is blown, Ian must take Angie and hide but when she finds out the secrets they’ve been keeping, will she forgive them? Awesome story with action and plenty of sex. You might need Kleenex’s for the end, so be prepared. Loved the characters and can’t wait to see what happens with the team next. ********** Twelve years ago Ben/Boomer lost his best friend and the girl he was falling for. He became a Navy SEAL and then he went to work at Trident Security. He also belongs to a BDSM club where he is a Dom. He was waiting for a new client to meet him when a ghost arrives at his office. Kat was a seventeen year old girl when her life collapsed. She was in a car accident with her parents and brother. Her mother and brother die and she and her father are put in Witness Protection. After her father passes away, someone comes after her. She runs to Ben because she’s been keeping up with him. Now that Boomer has her back, he’ll do whatever it takes to keep her safe. I loved this story. Action, suspense, and sex. Loved both characters and couldn’t put it down. Spanking, ménage, and BDSM.
Leather and Lace
It was fun watching Devon and Kristin’s relationship unfold. Both of them fought the attraction they felt for each other, and the danger it brought with it made it that much more precious. I’m always surprised at how easily women who have an aversion to sex fall into a BDSM situation in novels, and this was one of those. I’m a firm believer that sex is the best when both parties are concerned about each other’s feelings, and this is a story where this definitely occurs. I loved the mystery part of the story. Love stories should contain some kind of conflict, especially when it involves a security firm.
I liked it though I was bothered by some of the grammatical errors. There was punctuation that was misplaced while other punctuation was missing. It forced me to reread several areas in order to understand the meaning behind the sentences. A good editor would have been helpful and should have caught that.
His Angel
This is one of my favorite types of romances – the ones where the hero and heroine watch each other out of the corners of their eyes, doubting the other could possibly find an attraction there. But when push comes to shove, Ian is there to help Angie escape those who are after her, a situation for which she can’t even fathom a reason. However, when the two finally decide to give their precarious situation a try, sparks fly and these two burn the sheets along with other places.
This was an exciting love story and a situation where both came to terms with their pasts. The danger and intrigue added another layer and made it that much better.
I found some of the same grammatical problems as with the first story in the series, but the writing was improved.
Waiting for him
Definitely my favorite of the three in the set. Ben never expected to see Kat again since he’d assumed she was killed in an accident twelve years earlier that killed her entire family. But when she shows up, in need of help, revealing that she has been in the witness protection program for something her father did, the anger and heat are something that can’t be overlooked. I loved how human Ben was from the very beginning. And Angie had a strength that was beyond what anyone should need. They circled each other for a long time before things started falling into place and they decided to consider what this new relationship might be between them. The danger and intrigue were just as huge, if not more, in this one, which brought a new excitement level.
Again, it was hard to get past some of the grammatical problems and weak sentence structure, but the writing is improving. In fact, it got better as the story moved forward.
I enjoyed the stories themselves as I am not one to shy away from BDSM or the rules that come with sex play in writing. For anyone to be surprised at the amount of or descriptive factor concerning the sex is beyond me when the synopsis clearly states that the men are not only part of a security firm but a BDSM club. I find mysteries within the stories to be a thrill and found the author to have a knowledgeable database for the workings of the “security firm” mentality. I like when important facts are worked into a story, and those are the kinds of facts that are necessary to make it believable. I hope the author finds more reliable editing in the future and, as tempting as the excuse would have been, could not see giving her a lower star-rating for inadequate editing. The stories were exciting and steamy, sexy and hot, angsty and entertaining. I look forward to reading the subsequent books in the series along with other books she has written.
Enjoyed this series which highlights a BDSM club…its a good read!
To much bdsm
Couldn’t put it down
Holy cow!!! This was a steamy read!! Better still, the character development was great. Nothing was too over the top and the stories were believable. I can’t comment on the BDSM aspect because I don’t know very much about it. The only thing I can say is that it seemed like the topic was handled with respect.
Loved it. Kept my attention. Had a hard time putting it down.
I loved each book in this series & when finished reading it was sad to say good bye to the characters & story line
Scorching HOT!!! Trident Security will not disappoint and will leave you wanting, no, needing MORE!!
