The Claiming

The New York Times bestselling author of the Submissive series returns to the story started in The Master with a tantalizing new novella about passion, play, and possession...   Submitting is just the beginning...   Sasha Blake never thought her emotional wounds would heal-that they were a part of her just like her physical scars. But that was before Cole Johnson's boundless love and overwhelmingly sexy control set her free, unleashing a confident side that she never knew she had.
He's more than just her Master; he's her world. And she'll do anything he asks...   Cole's days of restless wandering are done-he's found everything he needs in Sasha. Now, it's time to make it official. When his childhood home in England goes up for sale, he realizes the old estate is the perfect place to claim Sasha as his own, and the ideal opportunity to show her just how much she means to him.
  As Sasha, Cole, and their closest friends from their Partners in Play community descend on the British countryside for a titillating adult vacation, the submissives and Dominants alike will test their boundaries-and have an adventure none of them will ever forget...   Includes a sneak peek of the next Submissive novel, The Exposure!   PRAISE FOR THE SUBMISSIVE SERIES   "An erotic, deeply loving BDSM romance."-Publishers Weekly   "A perfect gem."-Cecilia Tan, Award-Winning Author of Taking the Lead   "The Submissive series grows hotter and more intense with each installment."-RT Book Reviews (4 Stars)
