Description

One dark ‘n’ stormy night. One short curvy accountant. One very exclusive club.

Jessica can’t believe her luck. After her car slides into a water-filled ditch, she asks to shelter in an isolated mansion only to learns it’s a private bondage club. Given the choice, she decides to enter. She hadn’t realized when signing the “Rules of the Shadowlands” that she’d get much more than she bargained for.

Her next mistake is attracting the attention of Master Z, the intimidatingly, confident owner of the Shadowlands. The most powerful dominant in the club, Master Z can have anyone he wants—and he wants Jessica.

It’s time to enter the darkly seductive world of the Shadowlands…

This is not just the best in its genre, I think it might be put in my ultimate favorite category. The only problem in reading a book this great is that you tend to use it to gauge everything else you read. I may not be able to give out a top rating again for awhile. ~ Guilty Indulgence

  • Bdsm introduced

    I’ve been introduced to bad doms and good doms in real life(I’m vanilla ish I guess cause I’ve never dove into it completely plus researched it for psychology of sexuality class) and this was a great slow quick intro to what I know. Better than the 50 shades saga of cringe. It has the right amount of intimacy to sexual imagery that tugs at the heart but the story’s intro is very much internet blog writing so it dives into the smut fantasy quickly unfortunately. I’d give it full if it weren’t for the set up between characters and the thought process switch between them. I do however like how the bdsm scene was handled in comparison to icky main stream works but the trust aspect needed an even more gentle approach. Master Z may be a psychologist but his own action could be even dangerous if misinterpreted. So he needs work a bit.

    Look everyone likes a smutty easy read… but this book just makes no sense. The book begins with a women being stranded due to her car going into a ditch… fast forward to her walking to a random house that turns out to be a “private club”. She then signs a bunch of paperwork without reading (even though throughout the book she describes herself in high regard for her sensibility) she then immediately after strips naked and showers in front of a stranger and allows him to intimately dry her off. After entering the BDSM club she ruins a scene being played out by assaulting a participant and does it because her sister was in an abusive relationship and she won’t stand for that. The whole book is just random and contradicts itself. I had to stop reading within 75pgs.
  • Great beginning !

    I love this story and I’m glad Jessica and Master Z’s story continues though this fantastic series. Cherice Sinclair is so worth your time and money. She has never disappointed me.
  • Good but too short

    Excellent book. Loved the characters. Only gave it 4 stars because I felt that the book needed another 100 pages to finish. It has a HEA ending, but it still leaves you with an abrupt unfinished end.

    There is an person on Wattpad who is copying your stories, but giving the characters names of kpop idols, yet she kept your descriptions. It is ridiculous that all these Korean idols are huge, have red hair, hairy chests, etc.She also set it in Korea, yet kept the name of the Florida city and landmarks you used. She has made a mess of your awesome story and characters in her laziness. The title is Club Bangtan, and has it under 10 parts of the series. Her author name is, MinSugaBabyBoo. She has made a mess of your beautiful work. I hope you confront her. I dislike thieves who prey off of others work.

    Would have liked if the story was spread out over more time. But, the intimacy was hot. 🔥🔥

    I liked the book enough. It ended quickly and seemed to go slowly.

    I have never related to a character as I have with Jennifer! Innocent, sweet, terrified to try new things. I dream about finding a man like Master Z! God, I wish there were movies made after the series! I’d buy them! DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!!
