 While this was overall a good read, there were some aspects of it that really bothered me. It is a story about Joss, who has been mourning her dead husband for the past three years, and Dash, her husband's best friend, who has supported her throughout her trials. 
 Joss finally decides she's ready to move on and to seek what she couldn't have with Carson-a man to dominate and own her. So she goes to the local BDSM club, only to be spotted by Dash, who takes her home. 
 For his part, Dash can't believe that the woman he has loved and longed for since he first met her really wants a Dominant man. It is the culmination of his wildest dreams. 
 The two of them tiptoe into a relationship, and Joss is happy with her decision to turn over control to Dash. But Dash's insecurities come to the surface and he lashes out at Joss, driving her away. Can these two move beyond their shared past to find a future together? 
 I really liked Joss; she was a strong woman willing to go after what she wanted. I had more problems with Dash, because when he finally got what he had dreamed about, he threw it away without talking to Joss about his fears and concerns. He was also extremely rough with someone who was new to the lifestyle. 
 In spite of these reservations, this was a hot, emotional story, well written and with well-drawn characters. The author can squeeze her readers' hearts and leave them in tears, and she does that in this book.
