When Rainie rushes an injured dog to a clinic, she’s appalled to recognize the veterinarian, Jake Sheffield. So not fair. His memory has haunted her for over a decade. And then he showed up at her Shadowlands BDSM club. And now, he owns the veterinary clinic? The Gods of Cruelty must be laughing at her.
Master Jake is sophisticated, wealthy, and gorgeous. Rainie’s a fluffy, ex-slum-rat. He’d … ex-slum-rat. He’d never be with a woman like her. Besides, she’s been burned enough times that she won’t get serious about any man. Sure, the BDSM club trainees are supposed to be seeking a permanent Dom, but no harm, no foul — the Masters don’t need to know the truth.
As a Shadowlands Master, Jake watches out for all the trainees. But one is special. Lush body, a gift for living life to the fullest, always laughing or smiling. Now he’s learned she also has a big heart. Although Rainie trips all his switches, she’s avoided him since the moment she arrived… and he let her have that play. But when she lies to him about her goals, he knows the time has come for a Master to take an active part in her training.

Believable characters in a BDSM setting done in a realistic manner. It’s all good.
I listened to the audiobook. I thought the narration was good. I haven’t read a Masters of Shadowlands book in a while, but I seem to remember them being more engaging than this one.
I liked both Jake and Rainie. I really liked that Jake had her back, and was instrumental in her finally somewhat standing up for herself. I never felt any real …
I loved Rainie and Jake. I was sad that Rainie was such a sweet caring person but had such a horrible past. I loved the chemistry between Rainie and Jake and thought they were really great together. I am glad that Jake was able to see he can lean on Rainie. I am also glad that she was able to see she wasn’t her past. They definitely deserved their …
Loved it!

Another favorite author who writes for a base of personal knowledge. Fun book.
As this series has progressed now to the 9th book the emotional depth of each one also has increased. These aren’t just about Master’s and Subs, they are about the people behind those roles – their jobs, their friends , their at times heartbreaking pasts that have messed with their heads and self images of themselves.
