Is it Watson or is it someone else?

Although I haven’t read the first story in the series, A Promise Kept, which I intend to quickly rectify, the plot of the story is easy to follow. In fact, the words seemed to flow from the page. I love how Ms. Glenn continuously provides the reader, who hasn’t read the first book, insight into what happened in the past with Mason, Cooper, Ben, and the serial killer who tortured them, Watson.

The fears Cooper and Alec both exhibit as well as the hardships that they have endured in the present and the past are both realistic, and somewhat endearing, when you focus on the sacrifices that Alec is willing to make in order to keep Cooper safe.

Ms. Glenn does an excellent job of providing the reader with a better understanding of the BDSM world and it’s obvious that she’s done her homework.
