This is not one of Lizbeth Dusseau's better books. It's not powerful and there are no fireworks. I would say it's very weak across the board - The love story is dysfunctional, the love triangle is non-existent and the sex is scarce. Overall the book did not keep my interest and I had trouble finishing it.
Dana's life has been a wreck since her relationship with her Dominant lover and business partner Benjamin collapsed. She's been a total failure running the company since. Even her new master Locksley can't seem to set her straight. When Dana's silent partner brings Ben back to save the company, she's shocked to find her desire for him still alive. Dana begs, pleads and finally gets Ben's attention, Dana's ordered into into a cage and taken off to boot camp training by Benjamin and his accomplice, Jud. There she has to prove her submission to Benjamin to win him back.
I don't think the relationship between Dana and Benjamin is believable because they really aren't in love. He wants a toy he can beat regularly and she needs control. It's more about being co-dependent than being in love.
Lizbeth really doesn't describe why they need each other - I think Ben would be happy with any masochist and Dana just needs a domineering man. It seems just about anyone could fulfill their needs. Surly the sex isn't a key factor since they almost never have sex or do anything else together.
I recommend this book be skipped. See my full review here.
