  After her Dom's death, Shay Clarke tried to follow him into the dark. Now committed to the Meridian Institute, a facility where BDSM becomes therapy, she's paired with Rayne Bauer; a sinfully patient Daddy Dom whose touch promises both pleasure and pain. Rayne knows exactly how to handle a broken babygirl: firm rules, tender aftercare, and the kind of dominance that quiets her nightmares. The Institute's program isn't about permanent ownership, it's about teaching Shay to care for herself; to stand tall without a Daddy's leash. As their sessions ignite into something more dangerous than therapy, Shay must decide: surrender completely to the man who makes her feel alive again...or fight to own herself, even if it means walking away from the only Daddy who truly sees her. My Review Shay endured a very traumatic ordeal. One that has left her retreating into her own body and blocking out the event that has led her to Meridian Institute. I love the approach that Ra...

My Review This book has Daddy kink and Babygirl. You put these both in a story and you got me. I did really enjoy this story. The way that Blaine and Jasper took care of Nova with both dominate and tenderness is endearing and sexy.  It was apparent quickly on that Nova, Blaine, and Jasper were a good fix for one another. These vibed off each other. The heat level for ...
