The
Rundown
Lucian Bane’s inner Dom is out of
control and hungry for things he can’t name. When he signs up for Dom Wars, he
meets Tara who is naive to the BDSM world. Her reckless dominance and puritan
heart fascinate him. But when he discovers the pain in her past, it unleashes
his true Dom within.
Lucian and Tara make it to round two in the DOM WARS. The challenges now revolve around trust, and while Tara's inhibitions in the world of BDSM are slowly being crushed by Lucian's passion, her deep rooted fears become the real obstacle he must dominate.

First Impressions
So far so good! I like
that the book doesn't take long to establish where the plot is going and you
are introduced to both main characters right away. I like the gist of the story as well,
definitely a different and more realistic spin on a Dom/sub lifestyle. It’s nice that Lucian and Tara are just ordinary
people, rather than one of them being an elusive billionaire Dom. I like that the point of view switches every
once in a while so you get a more well-rounded view of the story. I’m about 20% of the way through the first
round already the sexual tension between Lucian and Tara is tangible and I
always enjoy strong sexual tension.
What I Loved
First off, I love Lucian and I want to be his partner in Dom
Wars so badly!!!! It’s been awhile since
I’ve read some really awesome sex scenes and so far this series is FILLED with
them. There are so many great ones I
don’t think I can pick one that is my favorite because they are all
awesome. There was one in Round 2 that
definitely surprised me a little and I love being surprised! I love that the Dom/sub roles are kind of
blurry and not completely defined because I feel like that’s more real and down
to earth. Each relationship is different
without BDSM being involved, so of course a relationship that does incorporate
BDSM will be different then just one person always being the Dom and one person
always being the sub and not wavering from that. I like that Lucian isn’t your typical Dom
because he hates to cause women pain other than spanking, but at the same time
finds his own ways to dominate a situation or lead a sexual act.
Not So Much
Okay
I know this is going to sound bad, and I hate myself for feeling this way but I
kind of don’t like Tara. She really gets
on my nerves at certain points and there are times where I just want her to
shut up and for Lucian to just bitch slap her.
I get people are judgy and I definitely fall into that category but I
have never said once that I’m an expert of a way of life just because I read a
manual about it. To me that’s very
arrogant of Tara to feel like because she’s study the BDSM manual she now knows
everything about it. I hate how she
keeps shutting out Lucian then letting him in, then shutting him out. It’s just too much back and forth for me and
gets tiring.
Also
I wish there a little more background information on Lucian and Tara, I know what
Lucian does for a living but I don’t know what Tara does. Plus I would’ve liked more details as far as
the game they are playing, because in round 2 I have no idea who the other
players are or where they are. I have no
idea where Lucian and Tara are as far as city or how far away the games are
from where they live.
These Stories Were…
Pretty freaking cool! I loved there is finally a story that breaks away from the normal BDSM erotica that is out there. I love that Tara at times can be the perfect submissive; while at the same time can step up and be an awesome Dom. I especially like the fact that not only is Lucian a very sexy Dom he is willing to be the sub once in a while and it’s not a struggle for him. I definitely like the idea of all these rounds and I am totally intrigued to see what Round 3 is going to be like for Tara and Lucian. I just hope that Lucian can bust through those walls Tara has up most of the time.
