Avery had to fun for her life, literally, because she had overheard her ex and his partner with the Chicago PD talking about making it look like an accident if she continued to dig into the files showing the evidence on their cases not matching the statements that were given. Going cross-country, taking odd jobs that would pay cash seemed to get her day to day but not very far away. When she winds up taking a job as a sex phone operator, she knows she’s in over her head when she stammers and stutters so much she’s continually hung up on. Fate seemed to be looking out for her the night Sheriff Grayson Monroe dialed a wrong number and she answered. Intending to hang up after apologizing for the inconvenience, Avery begs him to stay on the line and just talk to her. She just needs the calls to last and doesn’t know how to do that. That’s when Grayson takes thing in hand and ultimately talks her through her first orgasm. Without knowing exactly why she’s taken a job she has no idea how to do, he tells her if she’s ever in Willow Springs, MT to look him up. But can she trust him to help her? There are a few moments in this storyline where I’ve chuckled at Avery’s naivety which really, just made her all the more approachable. The story was great, the scenes were HOT as blue blazes, and I just love the characters. This was a great read.
This is the second book in the Cowboy Dom series and while I am sure you can read this out of order why would you want to? Each book does build off the other as far as characters. In this book, we find that Avery Pierce a computer nerd in Chicago is in hiding, and because she discovers her boyfriend, well ex-boyfriend and his Chicago cop partner are bent (crooked) as the day is long. When she discovered this fact she gathered some evidence and high-tailed it out of dodge. But now she is having to work in jobs she is not qualified for because she is working “under the table”. Sheriff Grayson misdials a number and gets Avery as she is working phone sex one night. He talks to her for a long time and realizes she is in some kind of trouble and tells her his name and where he is located. To come to find him if she need help. Little does he know she will show up but not show herself to him for a while.
Sheriff Grayson is a strong authority Dom and some folks might not agree with how he handles his affairs but for others, it is a turn-on. As for a BDSM no it is not strictly how it should be handled consent-wise. This book kept my attention from start to end. This series is one that has me reading one book and grabbing the next one right away. There is just something about Cowboy Doms!
Wow. An honest to goodness awesomely hot cowboy book. I didn’t think I’d like it, but boy howdy I sure was wrong. Great characters, great sexytimez, and, surprisingly, a conflict and plot that wasn’t god-awful. Color me pleasantly surprised.
fun read
One thing I liked about Avery is that after she heard her “boyfriend” talking to the other cop, she got outta Dodge. In many books, the h would confront the person after hearing their secret. Avery had a strong sense of self preservation.
I also liked that Grayson was not totally clueless about Cassie. I think he underestimated the lengths under which she was willing to go, but he recognized the obsession.
I can understand why Avery didn’t immediately tell Grayson who she was after she found out he was the sheriff. With corrupt cops in the mix, she couldn’t be too careful.
I liked the characters and the way they all embraced Avery. I thought Grayson and Avery had great chemistry and a good connection. I was surprised that she embraced the D/s situation and lifestyle as readily as she did. She had moments of hesitation which made the situation a bit more realistic. After all, who walks into an atmosphere they had never before experienced (especially someone who couldn’t handle phone sex), and not bad an eye?
A small town, sweet, sexy romance with a touch of BDSM, mystery, and suspense.
I thought this was a good continuation of the series.
Loved this storyline! Avery is on the run from her cop ex-boyfriend and his partner. She runs to Willow Springs looking to find Grayson, a man she spoke with on the phone. She finds he’s a cop and worries how he’ll react when she tells him who she is. He’s determined to help her and keep her. Wish there was an epilogue proposal!!
Each book in the series keep getting better. I know there was a part about the cattle rustlers and they have not been found so I would assume we find out what happens in book 3. Also she skipped over the trial and what really happens to Darren and Chad. I am glad Avery and Sheriff finally got things worked out. Enjoy
~Better to stick with her day job…~
—>>> Willow Springs, Montana is where Avery, ex-IT tech for the Chicago Police Department, ends up as a last resort, following an invitation from an unintended client over the phone during her very short and embarrassing stint as a phone sex operator. She runs into Sheriff Grayson Monroe’ just after settling into town, only he does not recognize her from the phone call just then. Slowly, the local residents draw her in one by one, first finding work as a waitress and then helping out people with their computers as word of her skills spread. Grayson remains suspicious that she has secrets and was determined not going to give in to furthering their fledgling Dom/Sub relationship until she comes clean, even though he cannot seem to stay away from her. But by then, it may be too late, as her secrets from Chicago will catch up to her sooner or later.
Grayson is fairly black and white with what is acceptable in his life, and has a caring heart, but something in Avery ticks every one of his boxes. Avery’s ex experience had placed even more doubts into her head about herself with her already low self-esteem, but surrounding herself with new friends and their solid support does wonder for her, and it all works out for their HEA. Great read and I look forward to reading Connor’s story as well as his brother’s, which I had missed out on.

This it the second book in the Cowboy Doms series and can be read as a stand-alone. Avery is in trouble and doesn’t know who to trust. Grayson knows something is up with Avery, will he get to the bottom of it before danger heads their way? Fast-paced read with plenty of drama and suspense. The characters have great chemistry and the story is steamy. A good addition to this series.
The second book in the Cowboy Doms series. Avery Pierce is running in hiding for her life she meets Sheriff Grayson Monroe as his waitress but there is somewhere else he has seen her. When she enters The Barn, his lifestyle club he knows where but he also knows she is hiding something. A well-written story that held my interest. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Submitting to the Sheriff is the 2nd book in the Cowboy Doms series by B.J. Wane.
Avery is on the run from her policeman ex boyfriend from Chicago where she was a computer geek in the department ; her ex worked there as well. Due to finding out that her ex is all fifty ways bad, she’s on the run for her life. She heads to Montana where she ends up meeting Grayson, the local sheriff. She once spoke to him on the phone which left her with many kinds of warm and fuzzy feels about him. The story is full of drama, heat, action, twists,turns, passion and romance. I liked the pace and flow of the story. Avery and Grayson have this immediate connection, this chemistry that comes across the pages of the story. The BDSM element is well written and seemly- not outrageous or unbelievable. I look forward to book 3 next.
My Rating: 4.5 stars *****
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. This book is an enticing blend of romance, suspense, humor and hot BDSM scenes. The story line is well written, grabbed my attention and kept me hooked until the last page was read. I liked Grayson and Avery so much! It was supremely easy to fall for Such a swoon worthy hero. Grayson was 100% dominate male, caring, protective, clever and sweet. Avery was a good person, had a huge heart and had a core of steel she never knew was there. It was delightful to witness the evolution of the relationship between these two from just two unknown voices on the phone to soulmates. Beautiful, exciting and spicy, this book delivers on every way.
Oh my….that voice
On our return trip to Willow Springs, we meet Avery a woman on the run wondering who to trust. Is she a fool for thinking she has found that someone because of his voice? Since there are a few “voices” that make me tingle and sigh, who am I to judge? Will Avery trust Grayson before jealousy and the past catches up with her? I jumped at the chance to read this new book by Ms. Wane. From the time I downloaded it until the final page(two hours later) I was completely lost in the story. Wonder which Dom is the next to fall?

I loved this taut, intense love story!
Avery is on the run from her Chicago cop ex-boyfriend, and she’s taking refuge in a small Montana town after a chance phone call put her on Sheriff Grayson’s radar. She’s running as much from her emotions as from the danger, trying to find the inner strength to start again and the confidence to believe in herself. Grayson knows she’s keeping secrets, but he can’t figure out why she won’t trust him or, at least, his position in law enforcement to keep her safe.
This was a superbly-written suspense story, focusing more on Avery’s changing life than on the tangled mess she’s running from. In Grayson, she finds acceptance and respect, and in the town she finds a purpose as well as a collection of sincere friends. The nuanced approach to her developing self-esteem was beautifully done. This is the second standalone romance set in this wonderful community, and I hope there will be more to come. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
On the run from some dirty cops Avery hides and survives as best she can. When dire straights set her up to answer a wrong number, her luck changes in the form of Grayson. When an offer of help is extended, Avery resists as long as possible, but when she finally has the courage to find Grayson, OMG he is the law! Scared, unsure who she can trust and how much, she hides her truth.
This begins a hot and heavy game of 1 step forward and 2 steps back between Avery and Grayson set against a background of the club and BDSM.
Their scenes are sizzling, sexy, intense and ultimately about establishing trust, communication and building a relationship.
Add in danger, intrigue, conflict and more and this is an intriguing, compelling, sexy heart warming read! You will fall in love with Avery and Grayson as much as they did with each other! Just a lovely story! Well done Ms. Wane!
Submitting to the Sheriff is the second book in the Cowboy Doms series, but can be read as a stand alone. Avery is on the run from her ex and headed towards Willow Springs, all because of a nice man on a phone call. She’s shocked to find out that man is none other than Sheriff Grayson, and now doesn’t know if she can trust him or his friends. But their connection can’t be denied and as they draw closer together with BDSM, Avery slowly starts to trust. When Grayson catches on to her lies, can he continue their relationship and keep her safe from her past?
Ohhh this book was so engaging, so exciting, and I absolutely loved Avery and Grayson. They definitely had an interesting start to their relationship, but I loved that they slowly grew trust and formed a strong bond before fully going all the way together and in the club. Avery was silently strong, and while she thought herself shy and a coward, she had a full heart and cared for those around her. Grayson was a natural protector, very curious, extremely dominant, and I loved the patience he had for Avery and her secrets. He just wanted her trust and she had to let go enough to believe in him. I loved being back in this town with some familiar faces, but I really loved the drama with Avery’s past, I loved the push and pull between Avery and Grayson, and I loved their connection! I did not want to stop reading this book and am already looking forward to the next book from Ms. Wane!
Sheriff Grayson Monroe had no idea when he told the anonymous female on the other end of the phone line to look him up if she ever got to Willow Springs. Avery Pierce is on the run and knows too much. She’s as skittish as an injured animal when it comes to trust. Grayson’s attraction to the nerdy girl 9nly heightens as he introduces her to the joys of submission. Getting her to trust him outside of The Barn will be a real feat. He knows she’s hiding something and it does not sit well with the lawman or the Master.
Another fantastic story in this series!! I loved Lobo. Avery had a ton of growth in this story! Master Grayson is hot hot hot
