Raine Kendall has everything a woman could want…almost. Sexy, tender Dom Liam O’Neill is her knight in shining armor, but Raine keeps pinching herself. Is he too good to be true or is this growing connection one that could last a lifetime? She’s constantly torn by her abiding feelings for her commanding boss, Macen “Hammer” Hammerman, especially in the wake of the mind-blowing night he cast aside the barriers between them and ravaged every inch of her body.
Hammer, Liam’s former best friend, can’t stop coveting Raine. But Liam is determined to hold and guide the woman he loves and see if she can be the submissive of his dreams. However, he’s finding that her trust is hard won and he needs a bloody crowbar to pry open her scarred soul. So he risks everything to win her once and for all. But once he’s put his daring plan in motion, will it cost Liam his heart if he loses Raine to Hammer for good?

Book 2 picks up with Rain & Liam's struggles to make their D/s relationship work.
Liam loves Rain but he's sure she loves Hammer and though she may feel something for him she'll never admit it.
I love Liam, I think he's almost perfect, almost because he does let his sub push his buttons and get away with it a bit too much. Then again I believe he gives Rain leeway due to her trust issues and Hammer's constant presence.
Hammer, I still am not a huge fan of his. I still think he's a prick, though he does work through some of his issues in this volume I believe he has a ways to go to be what Rain truly needs.
Rain. Ughhh. At times I'd like to beat her senseless. She seems a bit stuck on herself. Yes the dom is supposed to see to his sub's needs but she's being a bit childish at times and it's driving me nuts. She has two strong, dominant men who love her, one I believe loves her more purely than the other but either way she has two men who would move heaven and earth for her but she still acts like a spoiled child off an on.
Liam and Hammer work together to try to help Rain but once again that backfires. I'm not sure these two will ever be able to see eye to eye as far as Rain is concerned but I'm hopeful!
The end of this one made me curse the author. As I stated before, I adore Liam, and the ending turns his world upside down. I don't want to see him suffer in the next book though I realize he needs to deal with his ghosts I have mixed feelings about it.
Now I'm impatient to read volume three, I need to see what happens to Liam and to the rest of them as well.
I truly enjoyed Beck's role in this book, we got to know the masochist, the real man behind the whip! I wouldn't mind a book for him sometime in the future!
