Overview
After Kari breaks up with her date during Beginner’s Night at Club Shadowlands, she’s given the option to continue with an experienced dominant. Despite her steamy fantasies about BDSM, the inexperienced schoolteacher plans to simply observe. Yet under the unyielding hands of Master Dan, she not only participates, but gives him everything he asks for. There is nothing she can hide from him. Not her passion…or her love.

My Thoughts
here we find ourselves again..so HOT and bothered and it’s not because of the weather! Who would have thought that you could create yet another great story line just from being in a BDSM club right?
so in Dark Citadel we are reunited with the Masters of the Shadowlands, this time focusing on Master Dan. From book 1 Club Shadowlands we got the sense of all the doms being strong enormous men with lots of muscle and in this story we aren’t disappointed.
so let’s just back a second and talk about our key female Kari who goes to Shadowlands because the guy she’s dating feels like BDSM is a lifestyle that they are interested in. She’s kind of on the fence, thinking that it’s exciting yet the guy that she’s with doesn’t treat her properly and that goes all pear shaped. She’s then introduced to one of the Shadowland Masters and things make a 180. She finds herself with a guy that’s so intimidating who introduces her to a lifestyle that’s also very intimidating, yet quite arousing.
Master Dan – well Master Z puts Kari into his care, asking him to teach her about all things BDSM. Dan’s had it rough, yet the allure of Kari just makes things that much better. He’s brooding and dark, yet incredibly sexy. He knows his way around a woman’s body and that’s exactly what both Kari and I personally needed.
Again, what i love about what this author does is that we’re not brought to focus on a stick thin model. we have another REAL woman who feels a little insecure, but is deemed incredibly sexy. Read this, but i warn you, keep a fan and some water near your bedside because you will need it!
