After her efforts to track down her missing mother nearly get her killed, twenty-seven-year-old Julie Sampson ends up on the run, hiding out in a cabin with police officer John Hamish. Though Julie is used to fending for herself, John demands her absolute obedience while she remains in his custody, and she quickly discovers that her gruff, infuriatingly sexy protector will not hesitate to strip … to strip her bare and take a leather strap to her naked bottom when she defies him.
Determined to teach Julie to submit for her own safety, John decides to treat her as his pet, and the beautiful, headstrong young woman soon finds herself sleeping in a cage, wearing nothing but a tail, and learning the hard way that her master will not hesitate to show a sassy little kitty a better use for her mouth.
But even when she is punished in ways more shameful than she would have thought possible, Julie cannot deny her body’s desperate need for John’s stern dominance. When he takes her in his arms and claims her hard and thoroughly, she is left sore, spent, and satisfied, but can she bring herself to trust that no matter what, her master will never abandon his kitten?

This was way more intense than I initially thought it was going to be. After the stress she’d been through, Julie was supposed to meet Jimmy at the club except once she arrived, she received a text from him saying something came up and he wouldn’t be able to make it. There was no relationship there, just play partners, but she was hoping for some relief. So, instead of playing, she thought she would watch for a while but the couple performing seemed to be reciting a script. In discus and disappointment, she started to leave when a gentleman started a conversation and eventually asked her if she would like to play for the evening. Afterward, John was wanted her phone number to check on her the next day or even to grab a coffee but Julie, who normally kept to herself, declined. Two days later he shows up at her apartment asking her if her name is Julie, he’d known her as ‘kitten’, and when she acknowledged the name, he told her that her friend Kara had asked his friend Blake to come by and check on her since she hadn’t been answering. The coincidences just keep coming. The mystery that runs through this storyline kept me on my toes and then there is the fact, they weren’t sure who to trust and not trust with trying to find out the information they were seeking. The push and pull, the D/s relationship, the scenes, the piecing together the puzzle they were trying to solve all kept me tied to this book to its conclusion. This was a terrific read.
Kitten brought to heel
Yet again this author wows us with her understanding of human nature and the kink that helps us cope. I love this book, although several times I would have loved to knock some sense into Julie. Lucky for her, John has more patience. The HEA was hard fought and almost lost, but soo worth it in the end. I’m looking forward to the next book.
Our heroine gets in over her head and our hero wants to save her by any means necessary. But she keeps doing the wrong things in an attempt to find her missing mother.
This is book four of the series, but it is written as a standalone. No prior reading is required.
You know how some books build, slowly drawing you into the story and the action, while other grab hold of you from the first sentence and won’t let go? Well, this is one of latter. From the very first chapter, I was drawn into the the story. The scenes and characters are well crafted and come alive, seeming to leap right off the page. The result is an incredibly intense romance, with punishments, D/S, BDSM and a bit of pet play. There is also plenty of steam with a nice HEA to round it all off. Overall, a wonderful story and I look forward to more from this author.
Highly recommended

His Captive Kitten by Measha Stone is book 4 in the Owned and Protected series. This is the story of Julie and John. I have read the previous books but I do think you can make this a standalone book if you wish to do so. John is a police officer who cabin Julie ends up being in when things go terrible wrong when she went looking for her Mom. John is know going to take Julie in to be his Pet since she was to hardheaded to listen to his warnings of the danger she was getting into. Enjoyed this hot read.
Julie is searching for her mother, who is missing for half a year now.
To blow of some steam she is going to a club, but her normal buddy there doesn’t show up and she is doing a scene with John. After it she goes home without giving him information about herself.
But through a friend of a friend John shows unexpected (from both sides) up at her place. Still Julie doesn’t want to involve him with her, since she is used to solving things herself.
That changes when in the search of her mother she shows up at the wrong place at the wrong time and is hurt by an explosion.
John helps her and keeps her safe in a very special en hot way. He makes her his kitten and learns her how to behave. That isn’t easy for Julie, the behaving as a kitten is, but in between she makes split second decisions even if John has warned her not to do that.
What follows is a lot of action in and outside the bedroom.
With some twists at the end when Julie gets closer to her mother.
Great read if you are into owned and protected stories.
His Captive Kitten is book four of the Owned and Protected series and is Julie and John’s steamy story. From the moment John and Julie meet at a BDSM club they were destined to be together. Their chemistry is off the charts hot. This is an intense read and is one of those books that you either love or hate. I loved the intensity of their relationship and I didn’t put this book down until the last page. I definitely recommend this book and this series to anyone who likes a little fun time.
Learning to be cherished and loved is difficult when you don’t know that it is possible. I loved going through Julie’s quest, in finding John and all that he has to offer her and realizing she deserves everything and more.

Another standalone book in this series that is not for everyone as D/s, pet play is featured throughout this book and this series. It’s an interesting story and one that once started is impossible to stop reading until the book has ended.

I think I missed some of the books in this series but they can be read as a stand-alone so no big deal.
I don’t think anyone writes pet-play as good as Ms. Stone. Even if that’s not your particular kink, scenes are always so well written and more than enjoyable to read.
This one also had an addictive storyline and was definitely a page turner. I also really liked characters. They were both strong and well developed and worked great together.
I always look forward to read more from this author!
I received a copy of this book from Booksprout and this is my honest review.
The latest story in the Owned and Protected series is by far my favorite. John and Julie had a rather intense scene in their BDSM club, but Julie took off not giving John her contact info, but he gives her his business card hoping she’ll contact him. They both felt a connection, but she’s been burned and afraid to pursue a relationship. They meet again, when she is injured while looking for her mother. Finding John’s card, he’s called and he just happens to be a cop. The story takes off from there. The D/s relationship had context, which I liked so much better than the previous books. The story has crazy steam, action, the characters are interesting and the book well paced. Great read.

BDSM romance √
Spankin √
Kitten and her master √
Light suspence √
My first read from thus author and I enjoy it. It’s been long time I read BDSM romance. For some scene got me cringed cause hard n rough steamy scene on wood bark? That’s gotta be seriously hurt like hell n not a turn on for me. While some of the other scene are quite a turn on for me like when John get all dominant, protective and possesive. And I like Julie feistiness.
Force to be the grown up with an addicted mother, Julie have to be the one who take care of her. Including when she gone missing all of the sudden.
One thing lead to another, Julie found her self witnessing a cookout house got blown up, chase by the tugs, wanted by the police and on the run with one hot domineering cop who love to see her crawl and meow with a tail plug in her behind. Yummm lol

A suspenseful, steamy read that will captivate you to the last page
Measha pulls you in quickly to the story of Julie who meets John at the club when stood up by her stand in dom. At the end of the night, Julie bolts much to John’s chagrin. But fate has a way of bringing them back together when Julie is in the wrong place at the wrong time because of her mother. John goes all dom to protect her which Julie fights, and with plot twists growing, will he be able to keep her safe? You have to read to find out and will love the steam coming off these two!
Each time i say that this book is better than the other the author presents us with a better story. Each story is a standalone with no cliffhangers. The relationship between Julie and John seems to be somewhat equal but I think that Julie gets her kink when she gets her punishment. She goes into subspace. They almost lost their HEA but they both fought and the ending was so worth it. Another swoon worthy story. I received a copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
I don’t know why but I have enjoyed this story more than the previous one in the series. It has a mix of suspense, sexy, steam and it’s not too long. Julie is being protected by John but you can feel their chemistry and it doesn’t take them long to give in to their passion. It’s a perfect story to read in one sitting.
A riveting read! This book is part steamy and part thriller that will keep you reading from beginning to end. Julie meets John at a club, and they scene together. Through friends, John meets Julie again, and then ends up showing up when her personal life issues arise. Together they work together mostly to help her overcome them so that they can reach their HEA/HFN. Please not that there is petplay and heavier BDSM scenes so may not be for the faint of heart.

Kinky and a fun to read.

When Julie met John for the first time, she never anticipated seeing him again after that night, but he comes charging into her life. Julie is a strong independent woman who does not need someone to save her, but John is very protective and will not allow her to put herself in danger any longer.
This book was a erotic and entertaining book.

Julie and John meet at a BDSM club after Julie’s partner reneges. John sees her watching the play and moves to meet her. They agree to one play session and then Julie leaves. Through a weird set of “favors,” involving mothers and hoodlums, John ends up at Julie’s apartment. From there, their interaction gets more dangerous and involved.
Both John and Julie are extremely independent people. John is an exceedingly stern Dom: and Julie pushes his limits. I really enjoyed the whole premise of this story and how the simple turned into a way more complicated adventure. Will John be able to keep her safe? Will Julie cooperate with John’s orders? Will Julie learn to be a much more obedient kitten?
This is an excellent, well-written story that kept my interest from page one and never let me go.
Measha Stone knows how to pull you into a story from the start. Julie aka Kitten meets John at the club and has no cue who he is other that he is her dom for the evening. He tried to get her to agree to more play time, but not to avail. Days later he is called to help a friend and check on a woman and to his surprise Julie is the person he needs to check on. From that event they will start a journey to finding her mother who disappeared without a trace. He will break down all the walls she has around herself and start weaving a strong bond between Master and Kitten. Their power exchange between the two characters makes this an intense story to read.
