Brooke is such a great character; she’s been through so much in her past, abused, and taught to mistrust men at all times. When she stumbles across Faith practices with her whip at the club, she’s horrified yet intrigued. Carter, part owner and Dom, finds Brooke to be shy, innocent and stunning, yet knows she’s got big secrets and fears, and he wants to be the one to help her break through. Becca Jameson does an amazing job with sensitive matters, and really opens the BDSM world up for readers to gain a deeper understanding of clear consent, pleasure, and cathartic release. I voluntarily read an advanced copy of this book for an honest review.

What an amazing book!
This book is so very good! Brooke’s life has not been easy or good in any way, shape or form… that is until she meets Carter. Carter is one of the owners and Doms of Club Zodiac, a BMSD club, and he has been looking for the one missing from his life. The heat, passion, and emotions between them are amazing and will just suck you in.
I can only review one book at a time, but DEFINITELY recommend all the books of Club Zodiac-Collaring Brooke was just my most favorite one out of them all. No matter how many times Brooke tried to push Carter away, he refused to leave her to her suffering. I liked that. I loved how much he cared about her. Becca Jameson is a fantastic author and I absolutely loved every book in the Club Zodiac series.
LOVE THIS SERIES!
Brooke is a a low point in her life. She was in an abusive relationship. She takes a cleaning job at the club and sees Faith during training. She begins to learn about BDSM. Carter has a crush on Brooke but can he show her she can get what she needs with the more sensual side rather than the brutal whippings and spankings? This was a good story and wonderful addition to the series.

I really like this series. Well-drawn characters, strong women, Doms who care, interesting backstories, hot and steamy sexytimez. If you like BDSM novels, then read these. They’re excellent. That’s really all you need to know.
Brooke has been beaten and broken for all of her life. She’s curious but very hesitant to do anything. Carter sees Brooke and can’t help but want her. She makes him rethink what he thinks he wants and needs. I loved watching Carter and Brooke navigate their world. Amazingly good read, my favourite of the series without a doubt!
A gentle giant and a delicate flower. I love Carter and Brook. Carter is so gentle and caring. Brook is so innocent but loveable. I love the journey of discovery she goes on with Carter’s help. Just another wonderful book. I could not put it down.
After getting a glimpse of Brooke in Obeying Rowen (Club Zodiac Book 2) we finally get to see what she is all about along with Carter the 3rd owner of Club Zodiac. Brooke is a very broken and lost in life and about to walk away from everything even after Faith had started to show her there was something that could help her feel relief from life, in steps Carter whether she likes it or not. It was great how each book showed a different perspective of the BDSM life and allowed readers of the series to see there is so much more to it than what you may think. Carter helps Brooke when she doesn’t want it, but really it’s not she doesn’t want it its she doesn’t know what it is like to have someone who actually cares and wants to help her. There is a pretty decent emotional roller-coaster as Brooke finally reveals what her life has been like and what comes after along with how Carter learns and shows her how to at peace with herself.
Brooke’s life is about as far away from a fairy tale as you can get. During her childhood she suffered both mental and physical abuse. But, she’s a survivor having found ways to cope with such trauma. But now she needs a new outlet and BDSM and the Zodiac Club may fill the bill. Carter is enamored with Brooke from the first time he sees her. He recognizes that she may have been abused but doesn’t think he can answer her masochistic needs. He’s a sensual Dom that feeds off of submission and obedience. Carter helps Brooke discover things about herself she never knew and stands by her as she reels from this new found knowledge. He even willingly gives her space to deal with new familt relationships but he’s empty withour her. If he goes after her, will she return to his side willingly? Will he be able to give her what she needs?
Wow! The two characters are incredible. Such finely detailed emotions give them depth and resilience. I rooted for them both from the story’s onset. Becca Jameson crafts sensually erotic storylines with rich, multilayered, likeable characters, time after time.
Just when I think Becca Jameson can’t possibly make a series any hotter, she does just that.
Carter has been falling for Brooke since he first met her. He watched as Faith introduced her to the lifestyle in the hours before the club opened. He had given her the paperwork and told her to call him with any questions, but it was Faith she turned to.
Brooke’s day has been a total disaster, she lost her apartment, which she knew, but losing her job came as a horrible surprise. In spite of that she decides to keep her appointment with Faith. One last release and she’ll never go back to the club again.
Now that Faith has given in to her true submission with Rowan, she is doing a final scene with Brooke before turning her over to Carter for aftercare and hopefully more training.
Unfortunately Carter realized too late that all Brooke’s worldly possessions are in her car and he makes a quick decision to follow her.
I love Carter so very much. He does manage to convince her to move in with him but it was a long hard struggle of wills.
Filled with plenty of surprises, this book is truly one of the most emotional, hottest and sexiest ones Becca has written. Don’t miss it!
Collaring Brooke by Becca Jameson is book Three in the Club Zodiac series. This is the story of Brooke and Carter. I have read the previous books but feel this is easily a standalone book.
Brooke had been in a very abusive relationship where one of the punishments was to be whipped until she bleed.
But now she is trying to move past it but unable to do so until she starts cleaning job at a BDSM club where she happens upon Faith training.
Faith goes over the BDSM lifestyle and talks to her about trying it.
Carter happens to spot Brooke and he is immediately attracted to her but wonders how she would do with the BDSM and what she is hiding.
Really enjoyed their story!
Brooke was lost, after suffering for so long she believed that she didn’t deserve anything. She hardly ate anything so she could hide her body and no man would bother her plus didn’t really have the money. When she meet Faith while cleaning the Zodiac club, Brooke found away to release some tension. Carter couldn’t help but notice the little red headed woman Faith was helping find her way in their world. It was easy to see that at some point that Brooke had suffered some abuse in the past so he had to tread carefully as he was attacked to her. This story has a hard subject that can be upsetting, but the way her characters show there is another way to release the tension is touching and heartfelt rounding off the whole romance story in a way that will bring a tear to your eyes.
ARC – I voluntarily offered to review this book with no obligations and my opinions are honest
This is another great addition to the series!
Brooke hits rock bottom, and Carter is there to help her.
Carter had a crush on Brooke.
He can’t pass the chance to hep Brooke + to get to know her better.
I think that these 2 needed to find each other.
The storytelling + the character’s build were awesome!
It has all the ingredients that you need for a great book!
I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed this book. Brooke was such a fantastic character to read about and I enjoyed every page. This story is BDSM and Brook is a masochist. This seems to be a result to abuse and was handled in such a caring way by Carter who was a wonderful character who was not a sadist. I really felt for Brooke and what she went through and enjoyed how caring Carter was with her. The author does a wonderful job with this subject and is more knowledgeable than most authors who write about BDSM. The characters are all likeable and with problems and situations to overcome. This entire series is fantastic!!
