USA Today bestselling author Stacey
Kennedy returns to the tantalizing world of Club Sin in an enticing novel of
control and surrender.
Porter
Marshall has nearly achieved his goal of becoming a Club Sin Master, but his
new sub poses a much bigger challenge than he anticipated. Despite their mutual
attraction and red-hot dungeon sessions, Kenzie Hart plays her own games. Her
bratty, you-can’t-break-me attitude masks terrible personal hurt—pain that only
the exquisite touch of a skilled Dom can release. But when Porter suggests
taking their connection to the outside world, Kenzie denies him . . . which
only makes him want her more.
Kenzie
can’t ignore the raw, fierce bond she has with Porter. But she can’t give in to
his dangerous demands, either. Is the passion they share real, or is he using
her to solidify his status at Club Sin? And yet, who else can she trust with
the shattering secrets she holds within? As Porter expertly brings her to the
point of no return, Kenzie surrenders her body—and, piece by piece, her heart.
Tamed is an erotic romance intended for
mature audiences.
Four
weeks. Twenty-eight days. Six hundred and seventy-two hours.
That’s how long Porter had to get inside Kenzie’s mind and soul.
Personally, he had always liked her, even when he had known her from Chains
back in the day. Her fun personality was infectious, and she never seemed to
take life too seriously.
Though he also remembered Kenzie when she was younger, in her early
twenties, he never had any interest in playing with her before now. He’d been
in a relationship back then and hadn’t looked to other submissives for play.
Her behavior was bratty even back then, which he had no interest in dealing
with when he was younger. He had preferred well-behaved submissives. Now,
Porter’s being thirty-five, his cock twitched to play with this submissive,
eager to show her who’s in charge.
The question remained heavy on his mind: Had he excelled in the
dynamics of Dominance and submission enough to gain the compliance of the
sassiest submissive? Perhaps it was his manhood talking, but he quite liked the
idea of going up against the strongest sub he’d ever known. It made the moment
a little more playful, and definitely more exciting.
Even so, after one conversation with her, he’d assumed breaking down
the walls she kept up against others wouldn’t be an easy task. Kenzie’s game
was to throw everyone else off theirs, and she was a pro—which compelled him to
understand why. To find out what made her act the way she did. More important,
to be the one Dom whom she couldn’t throw off.
Staring into her pretty light hazel eyes that were more green than
brown, he didn’t know why she made life difficult for Doms; he guessed it was
just her nature. When he had seen her play with others, she was a submissive,
of that he was sure. Yet at times the things she said and did would make one
believe she’d be better off as a Dominatrix or a switch.
While he wanted to explore earning her submission, he also reminded
himself that Club Sin members needed to witness his skill as a Dom. The task of
showing Dmitri, the Club Sin Masters, and the other members that he deserved
the title of Club Sin Master was hanging over him.
He’d known all the
Club Sin Masters since they entered the lifestyle around the same time and were
playing at Chains. Porter had as much experience as Dmitri, and being on uneven
ground with them in Club Sin wasn’t a position he preferred.
Recognition. Respect. Pride. They mattered to him.
I' discovered Stacey Kennedy soon after I discovered erotic romances. I've read all of her Club Sin books and most of her other books too. This is the first time I was offered a chance to review one of her books and I am thrilled. I read quite a few BDSM romances and Stacey Kennedy's Club Sin books are among my favorites. I feel like you really get to know her characters. They stay with you.
Tamed is the story of the Club Sin brat, Kenzie. In order to achieve the status of Club Sin Master, Porter agrees to take Kenzie on as his sub for a month. None of the other Doms have ever really been able to break through Kenzie's walls. She has her reasons for acting out and Porter is the only one to see through the act.
I love Porter and Kenzie, both alone, and together. He is a typical alpha male - all strong and dominant (he is a Dom after all), but he is also very caring. He demands and commands obedience. From the very beginning we can see that when Porter actually does break through with Kenzie, that they will have a powerful bond. She doesn't give her trust to just anyone, and when she does, can she only do it for a month? I'll let you figure that one out when you read the book.
Anyone looking for a great BDSM series and a great book should pick up this book. I loved Tamed and give it FIVE STARS!!!!
