One accident has turned Jackson’s life completely upside down.When Jackson’s sister inadvertently posts an ad for a puppy play book instead of his dog training business, his inbox explodes with the most interesting emails he’s ever seen. In a sea of kink that he’s never even considered, one sweet letter stands out. It’s polite and earnest, and something about the two men’s words touches him in a … touches him in a way he never expected…but they’re not just looking for a lover…they’re looking for a master.
If finding a master for one pup was hard, finding a master who wanted two was almost impossible.
Cooper and Sawyer know that they have a better chance of winning the lottery than meeting the man of their dreams. Mature, sweet, dominant masters don’t just drop out of the sky…and when they add in the fact that they’re looking for a man who will love them both, the odds are astronomical. When they see Jackson’s ad online, Cooper couldn’t be more excited. He’s confident that the mysterious man who hints at being a master will be perfect for them. Sawyer, on the other hand, isn’t so sure that everything will go the way Cooper imagines, but saying no to Cooper is like stopping an excitable, well-meaning train. However, when Jackson actually responds to their email, suddenly the impossible seems to be right within their grasp.
Sparks and laughter fly as Cooper and Sawyer get to know the man who just might become their accidental master.

I think I’ve found my favorite puppy play book/series. This is a kink that I only became aware of once I was immersed in the MM community. My first reaction was shock, and then fascination, and now I’m reluctantly (although I guess not too reluctantly XDDD) admitting that I’m kind of into it. This author writes really sweet puppy play romances, starting with this series in which two guys in a long-term relationship, through an accident in online marketing, decide to approach a professional dog trainer to, um, train them to be puppies. Because they are into puppy play.
It’s a bizarre premise, but the personalities of Sawyer and Cooper make it work, and the relationship that blossoms between the three is actually super sweet and touching to behold.
If you’re somewhat leery of puppy play or BDSM in general, try this anyway. It’s clear the characters have chemistry and lots of fun. You might be surprised and like it just as much as I did.
(This is a HFN-ish ending since it’s the first in a series of three books, but all the books are out and on KU, so. Just mentioning it here!)
I received this audiobook as an ARC. I was actually to finish in a single sitting while I did some design work. It’s a sweet story about two men who respond to an ad pup training ad. They are in a relationship, but they are both pups so they need a master. This is a puppy play romance. I’m not personally into puppy play, but this book was extremely cute.
As you know I read angst and dark fiction most of the time. I’m just not made for fluff. However, there are times when I want to read it and I was interested in this book and I’ve read novels by this author before, So I gave it shot. I wasn’t disappointed. I was able to work without giving too much of my attention to it and still enjoyed it. It’s light-hearted and a quick read.
Kenneth Obi narrator and of course he did a brilliant job. His voice acting ability is on point and he just has a pleasant voice in general, whether he’s doing a feminine or masculine voice. I hope to get a future book of mine narrated by him.
I rate this novel 3.5 stars.
Cooper!! I want Cooper to be my friend, he’s so awesome!! Sawyer and Cooper are adorable and I’m so happy they found their Master. Jackson is perfect for them. What a fun and beautiful love story!
I love the way this story starts and the way the ball gets rolling. Cooper and Sawyer are honest about their wants and needs. And for some reason this touches Jackson and causes him to start thinking about things. I love are they really want to get to know each other. I also like that fact that they are brave enough to be themselves. The pups even put up with Jackson’s sister. I also like the way that each man is allowed to be himself and to show different strength and weakness.
Yep, that was 100% perfect. From the initial set up all the way through to the final scene, this story is beautifully crafted… M.A. Innes makes it look so easy!
I love a triad with two submissives and one Dom and these three men go so well together. When it’s just the initial pair of Sawyer and Cooper, the way Sawyer takes care of Cooper, even though it’s not what turns him on the most? He’s doing what his partner needs, to take care of his family. Then the scene where Cooper steps up to do it for Sawyer ‘just to be fair’ – damn that’s sweet.
Bonus erotic moments: The way they play with their fantasy Master is so intimate, I love it.
As Jackson enters the picture, and they slowly add the idea of him into their scenes, it adds some serious spice and the anticipation builds – I could hardly wait for the three men to get started on the physical part of their relationship.
Level up: the extra *super sexy* accidental aspect.
For Jackson, the idea of exploring his more dominant side is appealing, and the more he learns about puppy play the more he wants to know. Though the whole thing basically lands in his lap, clearly the timing is perfect.
The primary focus of this episode in the trilogy is on building a foundation, establishing a bond, and making sure each man feels comfortable. Don’t get me wrong, the sexual tension builds, and is always part of the story, but the relationships take a front seat. M.A. Innes does a fantastic job building this triad and the dynamic between these three men really works for me. I can’t wait to start Master By Choice.
The best way to enjoy The Accidental Master is as an audiobook. It’s clear Kenneth Obi put some serious thought into the story, he gives each character a distinct personality and I love how his narration helps to build the anticipation. While some audiobook narrators simply read the book, Obi gives his all and always adds something extra… I promise, you’ll notice.
This book takes on so many journeys but is easy to follow. Learning about things from Jackson, Cooper and Sawyer’s POV, truly helps you to connect with each of them. The intimacy and trust they all share is heartwarming, and fulfilling.
So much better than I expected!!!
I knew this would be amazing. I have read and loved every book by this author. I also knew that M. A. Innes/Shaw Montgomery has a lot of knowledge and respect for BDSM lifestyles. What that did for this book was everything. Cooper and Sawyer are so adorably sweet with their own needs as well as needs as a couple. Jackson is new to bring a master but intrigued. The pace of the story perfectly matched the needs of the characters. I was swept away and embraced every step they took. I also thought the way it ended was just right. Especially for Sawyer. This is a perfect example of how extraordinary this author is. The story fits the characters not the characters made to fit the story. A great experience and a fantastic read I HIGHLY recommend.
I’ve said it before, but it bears repeating: Before this author, I never knew how really sweet a kink story could be. Cooper is bouncy, optimistic, and refuses to be afraid to go after what he wants. Sawyer is cautious, loving, and afraid of someone hurting him or his beloved Cooper. Patient and kindhearted Jackson is brought into Cooper and Sawyer’s orbit due to a mistake made by the best sister ever, and nothing will ever be the same.
This story is lovely and sexy, and I am in love with the three men at its center. This is the first of three planned books about this relationship, and I am of course totally on board. Cooper is adorable, Sawyer is lovable, and Jackson might just be exactly who they need in their lives. I can’t wait for more!
