A year out of college and curvy girl Katrina Koile has learned that chasing your dreams isn't all that it's cracked up to be. She struggles to pay rent, none of her relationships last longer than five minutes, and her brother Brian's criticism grows harder to ignore. Grow up, he tells her. You're wasting your time. When she accepts an invitation to a private, adult themed party, it feels like the first time she's really taken control of her life. Bondage. Submission. These tantalizing, forbidden words call to the part of her that longs to have just one thing no one can take from her. She wants to be someone's everything, unconditionally, for just one night. What she isn't prepared for is that one of the Doms at the party isn't a stranger. She's known Josh Murcek since she was twelve. He's her brother's best friend, the boy who tutored her in algebra, taught her to tie cherry stems with her tongue, and now the man she looks up to like an older brother. Being his everything for one night could ruin their friendship forever. And she thought her life was out of control before.

Curvy girl Kat Koile has known Josh Murcek since she was twelve. He's her brother's best friend, the boy who tutored her in algebra and taught her to tie cherry stems with her tongue. He's also the first man to ever tie her up, tie her down, and teach her how to submit. Kat knows Josh's secret now—he's a South River Dom and with all her heart she wants to be his. So when he breaks her heart into a million, billion pieces, she's not sure she'll ever be able to put them back together. Josh badly wants to teach Kat about passion and submission, but pulling her into his world of Domination, pain, and control is out of the question. She has never been with anyone whose cravings are as dark as his, and if he has any say she never will. He'll do anything to protect her, even if it means losing her. But if Josh won't teach her to kneel, she'll find someone who will.
