Dangerously Bound (Dangerous, #1) (Dangerous Romance, #1)

by Eden Bradley

She can whip up something sweet…
 
Allie LeClair has finally returned to the sultry city of New Orleans. After ten years of studying and working as a pastry chef in San Francisco and all over Europe—and feeding her submissive side at BDSM clubs—Allie is home, and she has something to prove to the man who once fueled her desires. She’s not a child anymore.
 
But with two in the kitchen…
 
When security specialist Mick Reid hears that Allie is back in town, he knows he won’t be able to stay away for long. Ever since he discovered his darker side, Mick has tried to protect Allie from the aggressive beast within him—but that power and wildness is exactly what she wants.
 
Can they take the heat?
 
Allie has made the first move, but now it’s up to Mick. The game has begun, and playing has never been so rough.

[Cocktails and Books]

Ms. Bradley knows her stuff, I was quickly drawn into Allie and Mick’s story, I even found myself wanting to visit New Orleans because the city came alive on the pages of this book.

Allie and Mick love each other, but they have a past, a past that is full of some dark things especially on Mick’s part. I really enjoyed the way that Mick really struggled with being good enough for Allie, it made him a very real character to me. It’s a great example that Dom’s are human, which is something missing from other novels in the BDSM genre.

Allie has her own struggles, especially with family and finding her place among them. I did love that no matter what, no matter how tough, she wasn’t willing to give up on Mick. Together these two are some of the hottest characters I’ve read in a long time. Especially when they played, him binding her were some of the hottest scenes I’ve ever read.

It’s obvious that Ms. Bradley knows her rope and the way a sub feels when bound, she does a beautiful job of portraying those feelings and emotions to the reader. Ms. Bradley blends love, kink and passion into a beautifully orchestrated story of second chances. I highly recommend this story, it’s masterfully done and a definite story that I will enjoy many times again and again.
