Down on her luck, Boadicea McGee is desperate for a job.
Bills to pay, a roof to keep over her head, and vultures for parents leave her with few options. When her best friend offers her a dream opportunity, she has to weigh dreams against survival and her own morals. The pay is good, the people are nice…but working in a BDSM club just isn’t her thing.
Angry, repressed, Bodie is afraid of who … she’ll become in that environment, especially when one man in particular gets under her skin.
Are all her secrets safe?
Braun Fitzpatrick isn’t a fool. He knows Boadicea’s special when she walks into his club. She offers him the perfect challenge, the chance to chip through the walls the fiery little female has built around her. Undeterred by her bark or her bite, Braun is content to guide her through the labyrinth of self-discovery.
When danger strikes and the music stops, will Bodie still dance for him?

There better be more, this story makes me want to be a huge social media stalker……..is there more yet? I’ll be like the little kid in the back seat, nagging, nagging, nagging…….I need more of this Club.
This is the way I wish real life could be. Classic example of a place you’d step into to escape the real world. I’d have a ticket and my bag packed, no questions asked.
Braun was just, well……..not going to say book boyfriend because he is all Dom. He’s my perfect dream man shall we say? Patient, knows when to push and OMG hot!
Bodie, I have no clue how she functions, her family is beyond dysfunctional, more like a living hell on earth.
This wouldn’t have been nearly as great of a story without the other Doms and Domme. I have a need for their stories, they were so depth filled, now we need to know what makes them tick.
Definitely recommend this to people who love to get all the feels in a story, and want more from the side characters. Such an amazing world!!
This book had me on an emotional rollercoaster. And it made me feel all of the emotions.
I was devastated as Bodie’s story and past trickled in to this story. What that girl has gone through, oh my goodness! It’s more than anyone should be subjected to.
I felt so much anxiety for Bodie when she was trying to cope with her life all alone.
I swooned when Braun stepped in as her Dom and took control of his little sub.
I had hope when the Masters and Domme stepped in as a team to help Bodie.
And I had happiness with this ending. It made me smile.
I look forward to more of these Avalon stories.
This truly is survival of the fittest!
For Bodie dance is everything. Her safe place, her means of expression, her way of making a living. When Braun offers her a job as dancer at his club she has to accept to stay afloat.
The dynamic developing between those two from the very beginning is told with exceptional insight. Every success, every withdrawal, every hurt and every small comfort lures you deeper into the story of a truly strong woman and a man not afraid to take her as she is, with all her contradictions.
This is a story of growth, friendship, finding a chosen family, and above all else a truly unique and deep love.
I loved this book. Complex characters, insane chemistry, scorching heat, raw emotions and a gripping, gritty story combine to make a read that captivates and consumes you. Bodie is a character that your heart will break for and I so desperately wanted to be her friend and protect her. Braun was all things swoon worthy and he had me hooked from the start. Drama, danger, sweetness, intensity, glints of humor and poignancy are blended together into a addictive concoction that seamlessly flows across ever page and will have you desperate to read just one more page. A truly amazing read. I am posting a sincere review of my own accord.
