About the book: 2015 / There is no safe word that can protect your heart. Infamous erotica writer and accomplished Mistress Nora Sutherlin is doing something completely out of character for her: hiding. While her longtime lover, Soren - whose unusual addictions would be his undoing if revealed - is under scrutiny for an upcoming promotion, Nora is forced to hunker down in the arms of luxury. The rich and uninhibited Griffin Fiske, who invited her, is incredibly happy to see Nora in his country mansion, especially after he meets her companion. Young, inexperienced and angelically handsome, Mikael has become Nora's protégé, and this summer spent with Griffin will be his training, full of dangers and sensual abuse of the flesh. While Nora's body follows the call of lust, her thoughts again and again return to Soren, her Master, who is under the close attention of a journalist pursuing a selfish goal. This summer brings to mind another man from the past, whose power over Nora does not bring physical pain, but whose secrets are no less painful. This summer is destined to prove the old saying: “Love hurts.” WARNING: BDSM, +18
