New York Times bestselling author Tara Sue Me’s Submissive series is an international sensation. Now, Abby and Nathaniel’s story continues with their romantic wedding and a honeymoon too hot to believe…
Submitting her body was only the beginning.
Abby King didn’t know true passion until she gave herself to Nathaniel West, one of New York City’s most eligible bachelors and desired Dominants. Now, on the eve of her marriage, she realizes all her dreams are coming true. And with a romantic honeymoon getaway planned at a secluded Swiss chalet, she’s sure Nathaniel will find even more fantasies to fulfill…
Nathaniel never thought he’d settle down until Abby broke down his barriers and changed his plans. With their wedding only weeks away, he can barely wait to possess her completely—heart, body, and soul—and show her the true meaning of being both a wife and a submissive.
Only Abby has one more challenge in store before she becomes his: no sex and no collar for one month before the wedding. Nathaniel is willing to give it a shot but he has one scandalous stipulation—once that month is up, anything goes…
Includes a preview of the next novel in the Submissive series, The Enticement…
Nathaniel West and Abigail King are getting married. The two have faced many obstacles in their relationship but there are more challenges in store for them when Abby makes Nathaniel promise no sex for the entire month until they are married. Nathaniel accepts the challenges but it’s going to be a long thirty days.
I became so excited to get a glimpse back into Nathaniel and Abby’s life but short of them having a wedding and plenty of sex, there is very little to the plot. The first three books are awesome as Abby and Nathaniel explored their D/s relationship. The author tries to make a little angst or issue for them to handle but in all honesty it was resolved in the last book. Abby wears her collar during the weekend and during the week they try their hands at a more vanilla relationship. Now that they are getting married, Abby is still concerned. There should be no further discussion about this.
As usual, the sex is amazing and I loved it but I wanted more from Nathaniel and Abby. There are glimpses of the old Nathaniel that wooed Abby (and me) with quotes of poetry:
“Nathaniel,” I said in a soft sigh.
“Mmmm,” he hummed, entwining his fingers with mine and then he quoted:
In that book which is
My memory…
On the first page
That is the chapter when I first met you
Appear the words…
Here begins a new life
I pulled our clasped hands together. “Dante?”
He nodded and our foreheads touched.
Ah! The sweet words of poetry get me every time and I severely missed the banter between Abby and Nathaniel. At this point, I have to wonder if there is anything else for them. They have their HEA, so maybe it is time to let this series end on a good note. However, the author did give a snippet of book four and I’m left wondering if she can turn things around.
