Megan Mussina was resigned to spending her days running her sister’s catering truck, and her nights alone, when Steve Eriksson walked in to Goldie’s Bar one Thursday night. Steve is just her type; right down to the hair color (reddish-gold) and length (long).

Megan is the sexiest woman Steve has ever seen. He cannot quite understand why he finds her so attractive. She is a pretty girl-next-door type, but her sexual energy is undeniable.

There is only one catch: can Steve understand Megan’s need to be dominant in sexual relationships? Is he willing to explore his submissive side and let her take control? Their first encounters confuse him, but once he learns what Megan is trying to teach him, he becomes game for further experimentation.

Ms. Vaughn understands not only the sexual side of dominance and submission, but also the psychological side. The exploration of Steve’s thoughts as he submits to Megan is fascinating. Megan demonstrates that dominant women do not need to be harsh, masculine, and cloaked in leather, and Steve shows that submissive men are not necessarily weak. Their compatibility and fascination with one another, combined with some truly hot encounters and a sexy little twist at the end, make this a great read.
