The Covenant. The most elite, exclusive, well-secured BDSM club in Tampa. Co-owned by Ian, Devon, and Mitch Sawyer, they've spared no expense to make it the best of the best. And Mistress China, a/k/a Charlotte Roth, Domme and Whip Master there, is the crème de la crème, the embodiment of the club's standards. Petite and gorgeous, Charlotte isn't just a Whip Master. She's a seasoned parole officer. You don't mess with Mistress China! But lately Charlotte's life has become routine, almost boring. Her past has always kept the work, BDSM, and personal aspects of her life completely separate. But then she notices Mike Donovan, owner of the Irish pub, Donovan's and brother of Jake, another Whip Master at The Covenant. Both feel a spark of interest. Why not? Charlotte's beautiful. Mike's certainly no slouch himself. But Mike's vanilla, never felt any interest in BDSM. Charlotte needs BDSM like the very air she breathes. Can anyone say complicated? When Charlotte notices Mike's submissive tendencies, she takes a chance. Is it going to be easy? Umm...no! But is anything worthwhile? As Charlotte eases into talks with Mike, he surprises her time and again with his insightful questions. While it's far from easy for Mike to wrap his head around the fact that the tiny Domme wants him, and as a submissive, he slowly dips his toes into the BDSM pool. Are there doubts? Oh, so very many! Charlotte makes it very clear there will be a contract with an end date, little possibility of a renewal at the end, and absolutely no relationship beyond the BDSM. Mike's never had to separate his life into starkly demarcated sections that never intersect. But there's no doubt about the attraction between the two. Then Charlotte makes a fateful decision that could destroy everything. Mixing business with pleasure is a hard limit for Charlotte. So why is she doing it? When that decision endangers lives, exactly what will happen? For Mike, putting his life in the hands of a petite woman, regardless of her training and proficiency, comes at a cost. Can two completely opposite people, both with pasts that haunt them, both with seemingly nothing in common, find a way to move forward? Or will those differences prove to be too much? Regardless, it's clear that both may have gotten in so far over their heads there’s no chance for either. Will their seeming recklessness destroy the trust, faith, and friendship they've worked so hard to build?
Samantha Cole has a unique and authentic writing style. The military and police procedurals in each of her books are spot on. They should be with her experience in the law enforcement field. But it's her intensive and thorough research into the beautiful and captivating world of BDSM that grabs me every time. This book is full of unexpected twists and turns. Mike and Charlotte's relationship is so unusual and unexpected that I kept expecting it to implode every time Charlotte pushed Mike to take another step forward. The depth of emotion, connections, and growth of each character captured me and wouldn't let go. Honestly? I couldn't put the book down! I stayed up all night to finish it because I had to know how it ended. Predictable isn't something Samantha Cole does. She's a superb storyteller, and her books are riveting. It's evident from the caliber of her writing that she researches every aspect of the subject matter until she's as conversant with it as the experts with whom she consults. I've been hooked on her books since I first found her as an author. She's at the top of her game with this one. To give Entertaining Distraction anything less than five stars would (please excuse the pun) a crime! Congratulations, Ms. Cole. You've demonstrated your mastery of this genre once again.
One final note. Be an informed reader! This is an ADULT book. It contains explicit language, BDSM sexual scenes, and some violence. If you don't enjoy this genre, think hard before buying any book you know you won't enjoy. There are book synopses and reviews available on Goodreads and all booksellers' websites. Use these resources. DON'T LEAVE A NEGATIVE REVIEW WHEN YOU KNOW YOU WON'T ENJOY THE BOOK. It's not fair to the author. She works hard to provide a quality work product. If you know you'll object to the book's content before you buy it, you're doing yourself and the author an extreme disservice.
Thanks for reading my review and happy reading!
