about this book: Though A Dom's Dilemma is book 2 in the Unexpected Consequences series, it is the beginning story for Kelly Franklin and James Evans from their point of view. At times we're with Kelly who is struggling to keep her past experiences from Jim, who has agreed to be her new Dom. She fears abandonment, restraints and pain, all of which she suspects she'll experience if she reveals the horrors of her past. Jim is a Dom who refuses to tolerate lies, and he views omissions of truth to be the same as a lie. Furthermore, after the intense weekend they spend together, He also fears Kelly may require far more attention than he is willing or able to give no matter how much he enjoys being with her.

However, when Kelly's life is put in danger by her former abusive Dom, everything changes. In addition to being a Dom, Jim is also a police detective who is determined to protect Kelly at all costs. But for him to succeed, he needs her to tell him the truth, and he knows getting her to talk won't be easy.

Blurb: James Evans has been a police detective for sixteen years and an active participant in the local club scene for even longer. So, at age 35, he knows what he likes, and for the last three years, he's liked what he's seen in Kelly Franklin. Pretty, feisty and submissive, the fact that she scurries off like a frightened rabbit every time she sees him, only intrigues him more. He would have pressed a lot harder to corner her, if she didn't already belong to someone else. That is why, when Kyle Sinclair mentions he's looking for a new Dom to top Kelly, Jim doesn't hesitate to sign up for the job.

Taking his cues from Kelly, Jim quickly discovers she isn't seeking pain and punishment the way Kyle thought. In fact, all of Kelly's signals indicate she is scared of pain, which both puzzles Jim and brings his protective side to the fore.

As a Dom, Jim is pleased by Kelly's open responsiveness, but as a police detective, he is determined to solve the enigma she presents. Their relationship grows even more complicated when he discovers Kelly has not only been keeping secrets from him, she has lied, and neither side of him tolerates any type of deception--ever. A point he is more than willing to make with Kelly draped butt-naked over his knee--until she finally tells him the truth.

5 Star Amazon Review: This is one of my favorite stories. Kelly and Jim have such a connection even from the very beginning. The mystery in the story really raises it to a new level.
