This is an alternate cover edition of ASIN B0785WXRDM He ties women up to set them free. She’s not looking for freedom… Matteo Ignatius is a corporate consultant who teaches companies how to be kinky – only he doesn’t call it that. He’s also a rope-bondage master. A nawashi. A man proud of his tools and in search of the best. Liane Granger is a flannel-clad artist with a dandelion tattoo and a life that doesn’t need a man, much less the new kitten she somehow acquired when she wasn’t paying attention. She makes handcrafted rope in her small studio on Kootenay Lake. She also runs an on-again, off-again B&B, and one of her best customers is coming to spend the night and pick up a special order. Which sounds really simple until he walks in her studio door and uses her own ropes to tie her up.

“I broke a good Dom once and I won’t do it again.” India Jennings used to be kinky. Now she makes piercings jewelry and adds some interesting local color to the tiny community of Crawford Bay. She has a flame torch and knows how to use it, and she has no interest at all in digging up her past. Rafael Clark is here for a visit – and to solve a mystery. His good friend Matteo isn’t dropping many hints, and while Rafe is happy to fly his plane in pretty skies any day of the week, he’s kind of confused. Until he sets eyes on India.

“This is what drew me into a life of kink. Not the accessories or the power or the sex. The river of honesty, deep and wide, that runs through it.” He’s an Irish Dom, on a detour to visit a couple of friends who seem to have holed up in Crawford Bay. She’s the artist determined to keep him away from her etchings - and anything else that matters. Final book of the Handcrafted trilogy.
