I was a little bit disappointed with this story. Men and women train hard to be full time Doms and subs. I thought that it was poor thinking for Tackett and Micah to try to be full time Dom and sub when neither had any training and neither man had much experience in BDSM at all. I also think that Tackett was ill equipped to deal with Micah's special needs. Blake and Ty gave some guidance but not nearly enough. This story read much more like a regular romance with some BDSM play in it. That said, I did enjoy the story.

Anyone who tells you that keeping a marriage/partnership healthy and fresh is easy is a liar. This very well written book tells the truth about the time and effort necessary to keep the romance alive. Carrick Masters is a successful doctor and his husband Ed Boyd is a lawyer. Both men have crazy and unpredictable schedules and their marriage is suffering because of them. Either Ed feels neglected or Carrick does so they try having a date night which doesn't cut it once they start having to cancel do to their jobs. They introduce some Dom/Sub and light BDSM into their sex lives but that only works when they are both home. Finally as a last ditch effort, they cut back on their work hours. The story is very well written and reads easily. I enjoyed the characters Ed and Carrick and could feel their intense love and frustration. The sex scenes are well put together and the BDSM adds some zip. I'd recommend this book to anyone in a marriage or thinking about one.… (more)
