Mastered:
At The Den nothing is off limits… In an idyllic mountain setting on a dozen secluded acres of land, Master Damien Lowell has made his spectacular Colorado home—the Den—available to a select group of people. Doms and subs are invited to explore the intricate nuances of dominance and submission, of sadism and masochism, of exquisite bondage, and strict discipline.
The Den—where the … discipline.
The Den—where the wildest of fantasies becomes reality, lives are transformed, and limits are shattered.
With This Collar by international bestselling author Sierra Cartwright
Book one in the Mastered Series
Julia Lyle will have nothing to do with domineering men, no matter how tall, dark, and sexy. But Dom Marcus Cavendish will be satisfied with nothing less than collaring the fiercely independent Julia.
Nothing could have shocked her more…
Julia Lyle is invited to her best friend’s wedding and is stunned when Lana kneels to accept her husband’s collar. When Julia starts to object, firm, relentless hands land on her shoulders. The man behind her threatens to turn her over his knee if she interrupts. She’s outraged, but there’s no doubt he’s serious.
After the ceremony, he offers her a glimpse into her friend’s lifestyle, if she’s brave enough to accept.
Master Marcus Cavendish is everything she doesn’t want in a man—dominant, self-assured and arrogant. So why can’t she resist him?
Telling herself that learning about the lifestyle will make her a better friend, Julia agrees to submit to Master Marcus, but only for the evening. Firm and unrelenting in his handling of her, he introduces her to his tawse and the pleasure/pain of a spanking delivered by a competent Dom. The experience unnerves her, making her question everything she thought she knew about relationships, and his forced orgasms leave her shattered.
No doubt the scene seduced her, and that makes her doubly determined to avoid him. She has fought hard for her freedom and vowed only to date nice men, and Master Marcus is anything but safe.
Marcus is undeterred. Julia is a natural sub. The way she responded to his touch, his voice, his punishment proved it. Now he has to convince her to yield to him, submitting to his tawse as she kneels to accept his collar.

By far my favorite in the series. I reread this book a lot. My go to BDSM story. Marcus is absolutely delicious. I love everything about his relationship with Julia- how they engage with each other, their chemistry, her response to his attentions, etc. I love them together. This is an awesome introduction to a wonderful series.
I Loved this book in facted I had to read it twice. I had the best time reading this because of the Carter’s where so amazing. Please keep them coming.
WOW! This book had me from the beginning.
it’s a typical dom/sub rag
Absolutely loved it
It keeps you reading
Enjoyed this book. Was interesting and steamy.
Hot! Steamy. Quick. Not sure how realistically the D/s world is portrayed but it’s interesting and makes you wonder…
Genuine insight into both dominance and submission. Well done.
Had to take a cold shower after reading this story and want to know where to find a man like that.
Wow! This is a great book! It does involve BDSM but it shows a wonderful side to it. I am in love with Marcus!!
A quick, sexy, BDSM story
A little different but enjoyed it.
Very provocative.
Weak heroine, ridiculous male character. Even in the wildest circumstances a follow the rules, self described strong woman does NOT strip naked for a man she does not know and parade naked through the building just to ‘understand’ bdsm! And a guy who is not into causing you pain does not equal BORING, while the guy urging you to just take the pain because you might ‘decide you like it’ does not equal exciting. He’s a jerk. Disgusted with my self for finishing this drivel. It wasn’t the subject I disliked- it was the two characters.
An adventuresome book that is entertaining and easy to read. Her choice of a collar speaks of the romantic side of this light BDSM book.
Pulled me in from the start.
Loved this book.
It’s not your hearts and roses romance. Mature adults
I really enjoyed reading this book.
