First, again we have another short story, not a full novel. However I was expecting this because Ms. Parker is known for these types of stories. But this the only thing I knew before reading this book. After the first page I knew this book was unlike all the others.
First we have Dena, she is a character we've seen in the Club Prive books. Dena is quitting her job to take a job as and Assistant District Attorney. Her dream job. While she's looking at how her life is changing , how one door is closing and another is opening, she is definite feeling lonely.
We quickly learn that Dena is having a difficult time finding a man who meets her needs. See she's not a true sexual submissive, or a true female dominant, she actually a switch. Someone who likes to dominate men sometimes, and other times likes to be dominated. It's truly difficult for her to find someone like herself. We get to see her as a female dominate, which is smoking hot. But it doesn't completely satisfy her.
We get to meet Arik, who is new to NYC and to Club Prive. He is also an Attorney but for the other guys, he's a defense attorney. We learn how unsatisfactory Dena's new job is and hoe frustrating her whole life is, in walks a very sexy Arik, to Leather and Lace , another NYC BDSM club. They hit it off instantly, you could almost feel the heat coming off the pages. But then your left wanting.
This book has great character development and we really dive into this world, which we have had glimpses at from Ms. Parker's pervious books. I look forward to grabbing the rest of Dena and Arik's story and hope they can find a happy ending.
