She's known from an early age that she was 'different' from the other girls. Fundamentally different. While they dreamed of making sweet love under moonlit skies, her fantasies were of a decidedly ‘other’ stripe.\u003cbr\u003eTroubled and alone, she fashions an unfulfilling but socially ‘acceptable’ half-life, where she exists in militant self-denial.\u003cbr\u003eThat is, until fate intervenes…\u003cbr\u003eThrust unexpectedly into the world of BDSM, Missy is shocked and confused when, for the first time - she feels whole.\u003cbr\u003eAnd home…\u003cbr\u003eThe extremely Dominant James not only tears the clothes from her body, but the blinders from her eyes as well. Now, after a lifetime of dedicated denial, her secrets are strewn - exposed to the glaring light of consciousness. Of a sudden, her carefully constructed one-size-fits-all existence chafes relentlessly!\u003cbr\u003eYet, in a judgemental society where any deviation from the straight and narrow is frowned upon, Missy wavers. Wracked with shame and doubt, she forces herself to re-enter mainstream society – and fails in spectacular fashion!\u003cbr\u003eIs she able to turn her back on the ‘forbidden’ world of Domination and submission that seems to soothe her very soul? Can she force Pandora’s Box to close once the lid is ripped from it?\u003cbr\u003eJust when she is sure that all is lost – the impossible happens.\u003cbr\u003eWhile MASTERED daringly depicts the ‘mechanics’ of a Dominant\/submissive relationship, it also delves into the rarely addressed psychology behind this oft-misunderstood 'alternative lifestyle'.\u003cbr\u003eTold with passion and humor from both perspectives, you - the reader - get a rare glimpse into the inner workings of each and an unprecedented peek into the veiled realm of BDSM. You will come to know and care about these 3-dimensional, multi-faceted characters.\u003cbr\u003eAnd finally, you will know the truth...\u003cbr\u003eIn the end, The MASTERED Saga will have you begging for more!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"K.L.
