There is always a back story.... *SPOILERS*
Rebecca is lost in her life. She wants to work in the art world but can never seem to find the right moment to pursue her passion. Then she meets Mark who owns an art gallery in town. Her asks her if she wants to work for him and she agrees, deciding it is time for her to go after what she wants. There's just one problem - she wants Mark. And she knows Mark wants her. But not in any ordinary relationship. Mark is a Dom and he wants her to be his submissive.
In this grouping of novellas, we get to see inside Rebecca's mind as she is presented with his contract. She wants Mark to have a relationship with her and yet she knows he won't have a "normal" relationship. If she wants him, she will have to give into his contract. When she begins her submissive, she feels free. She loves how attentive Mark is to her; the way he seems to know what she needs before she needs it. He pushes her boundaries; sometimes, she feels, too much. Can her feelings for Mark change into what he wants or should she move on and try to have a normal relationship with someone else?
This book is written in journal form so there is no "normal" flow to this book. But what I really love about this book is just how much you feel for Rebecca. You feel her confusion, her elation, her heartache, and her love. Through her journal, we get to know Rebecca deepest thoughts. You know her feelings for Mark are genuine and yet we can also see how Mark pushes Rebecca almost too far. It was nice to see a heroine who realizes the man is not enough for her and even though she loves him, she decides they are better off apart. It might hurt her but she knows that Mark will never love her in the way she loves him.
