"Punchy, unputdownable...a must for every reader who likes their romances to walk on the wild side." --Sierra Simone, USA Today bestselling author, for Praise She doesn't want to hurt him--she just wants to punish him... Being the only female owner of the Salacious Players' Club, Maggie Anderson thought her life was hard enough. But as the club continued to grow, she felt more and more on the outskirts as the only one who didn't have a kink. Or so she thought... When she takes a kink quiz on the club's new app and learns that she's a Domme, she realizes that she might not be quite so vanilla after all. In fact, she's a lot more like her colleague, Emerson Grant, than she thought. There's just one problem--she doesn't know how to be a Domme. Or she didn't, until the app matched her with someone willing to learn. But he's too young. Too stubborn. Too good looking. And, to top it off, Emerson's son. Beau Grant is a brat. And Maggie would hate that about him it if she didn't love punishing him so much. Yet she's beginning to see that underneath his attitude, Beau is misunderstood, self-less, and in need of direction. But if it's mercy he's after, he'll have to earn it first. She finally knows what she wants, and she's ready to take it.

I was intrigued by Maggie being a Domme, but I wasn't sure if I could enjoy Beau, the main male character. But I shouldn't doubted Sara Cate work of art in making character development. it was a good book. You have to read the other's book before you read this one.
i was nervous to read this one because i didn't like beau in book one, but i honestly really enjoyed it. maggie is a badass, of course! i really loved seeing this side of beau and the interactions with his dad!
As much as I love this series as a whole, this one just didn't stand up against the others. I still enjoyed it but Maggie and Beau's dynamic just didn't work as much for me. I get that he's a brat but to still be a dick by 60% was a bit much and he spat down her throat?! WTAF! Even I was icked by that bit and nothing ever gets to me.
I think I know who the last 2 books are going to be about and I'm not sure how they will fit with these 4 as I suspect they will be about people outside the 4 owners, but I'll still read them as I love Sara Cate's writing.
There were at least three times where I considered DNFing the book. There were at least 100 times where I had to put down the book and walk away. I'm not exaggerating. There were moments I picked it up, read a sentence, put it down and walked away.
I get that this is Maggie's book and yes, I agree, it should have been her on the cover, but also Drake is on the cover of Book 3 when it should have been Hunter if we are following the owners.
I didn't like Maggie and I didn't like Beau. No growth in either of the characters. It felt disjointed the entire time. There were pockets of “I should feel something at this moment. This moment is momentous.” Yet whatever came before or after that moment never allowed that moment to be authentic. The epilogue saved it from being a 2 star.
I'm good.
