Kink-curious submissive, Hank Ellsworth gets more than he bargained for when he attends a bondage demonstration at a local BDSM convention. Not only is the presenter a gorgeous Master with a body made for sin, but he chooses Hank to be his assistant and soon has Hank tied up and begging for more. Love is the last thing veterinary professor Edison Smithfield is looking for when he meets Hank, but the sparks flying between them moments after they meet are hard to deny. Missing the connection between a Master and a slave, Edison agrees to let Hank serve him while keeping his heart safely out of reach. While Hank enjoys the bondage sessions with Edison, he can’t help developing feelings for his withdrawn Master. When Edison won’t let Hank serve him sexually, Hank has to decide if he’s brave enough to walk away from the man of his dreams or stand his ground to prove to Edison the ties that bind are the most important of all.
