review 1: Sarah's Review: I am going to be honest and say that the BDSM genre is not really a favorite of mine, but there are some authors that I am willing to step out of my comfort zone and read what they write. When Ella Jade gave us Make Me Stay, I knew I had to read it. I have enjoyed her previous releases, so I thought why not. I have read all but one of her stories as of writing this (5/28/13). We are introduced to Martin in Make Me Stay when Gracie returns to Cade. To understand why Martin is important to Gracie, you should read Make Me Stay. This book is Martin's story and let me tell you, I fell in love with Martin. If there were more men like Martin, I think there would be a lot less single women, me being one of them. *sighs* Sadly, Martin is not mine, but we ge... moret to see two different sides of Martin, the Dom and the man in love.Arianna is Martin's new attorney, but she comes in and knocks Martin for a loop. Well, I think both threw each other for a loop, but I think that was meant to happen I loved that Arianna was strong and confident in who she is to recognize when she could and could be submissive and Martin was able to accept that. I loved seeing Martin and Arianna begin learning about how the other lives. There is so much that I want to say about this story, but it would give a lot away. I loved seeing Arianna stand up for what she believed was wrong even if it meant going against the rule of the D/s status quo. I respect that Martin understood where she was coming from and still listened to her concerns.I did feel bad for Arianna at one point because she felt threatened my Gracie, who does make an appearance with Cade. I love that we got to see Gracie and Cade again, but Ms. Jade left some questions regarding these two open. I loved that Gracie made Arianna comfortable with her and that she had no reason to feel threatened by their past and their current relationship.
review 2: Surrender To Me is the follow up to Make Me Stay. This book can be read as part of the series or it can stand alone. The story is told in a third person POV. When I started this book I wanted so much to love the story and I did! Martin is the dominant with a soft side. He finds himself alone after his prior submissive found her true love and got married. He is known in the BSDM community for helping to pair couples into healthy BDSM relationships. Arianna is an attorney who is recovering from the hurt and betrayal of her ex husband. She has relocated to start fresh and begin a new life. Martin is looking for an attorney to help with his Real Estate business transactions, he is introduced to Arianna by her cousin Hunter who is also a member of Martin's exclusive BDSM Club Master M's. When Hunter introduces Arianna to Martin he fails to mention the other type of business he owns. The attraction between them is clear during their first encounter. Martin is not sure what he is supposed to do with his feelings towards Arianna because he knows that she is not a submissive nor does she have any clue about the lifestyle he lives. When Arianna goes to Master M's for the first time she realizes what type of club it is and is instantly curious.When Martin requests that Arianna travel to his Connecticut home to deal with some of his other business affairs, the attraction between them grows and can no longer be denied. After one night of unbelievable, hot intimate passion, like nothing Arianna or Martin has ever experienced, they decide they want to be together."I believe we're compatible either way""You wouldn't be upset if I didn't want to__""Play?" He finished her sentence for her.She nodded."I won't lie. I'd be disappointed but never upset. It's your choice. It will always be your choice." He needed to make sure she understood. I want you, and after last night there is no turning back for me. The thought of tying you up to my bed and doing wickedly nasty things to you while you scream my name drives me insane."Once back in New York and back to the Club reality of how to deal with their Dom/Sub relationship and how to combine that with a normal loving relationship proves to be more difficult in the real world. They need to learn to find balance between what they know and their new unfamiliar roles.The passion between Martin and Arianna is definitely HOT! The playroom scenes are a little less often than I would have liked. That is why we read these HOT BDSM books, isn't it? There were times during the book that I felt it was a little rushed. Because of this, I felt like we missed out on some aspects of the story. There were times I wished the book would have slowed down a bit and explained a little more in depth about how and why the characters came to feel the deep feelings that they felt."You'll surrender to me over and over until you have no sense of time and place. You'll lose yourself in me. When I'm done with you, I'll be the only one who will ever exist in your world. You'll belong to me Arianna."Martin and his sweetly spoken dominating words could melt your heart and panties! Swoon!When I read this book I had not read book one of this series. I have now added that book (Make Me Stay) to my TBR and hope to read it soon. I look forward to more books in this series. Maybe Hunter and Nadia's story?I give this book 3.5 stars. less
