She defeated her past; she couldn't defeat the Dominant who wanted her. Jake Sheffield's memory has haunted her for over a decade.When Rainie rushes an injured dog to a clinic, she's appalled to discover the veterinarian is Jake. So not fair.

Besides, she's been burned enough times that she refuses to get serious about any man. Sure, the BDSM club trainees are supposed to be seeking a permanent Dom, but no harm, no foul-the Masters don't need to know the truth. Shadowlands Master Jake watches out for all the trainees. But one is special.Lush body, a gift for living life to the fullest, always laughing or smiling. Now he's learned she also has a big heart. Although Rainie trips all his switches, she's avoided him since the moment she arrived... and he let her have that play. But when she lies to him about her goals, he knows the time has come for a Master to take an active part in her training.
