Krista Matthews
thought nothing could be harder than losing her husband and Master to
suicide until the man he’d entrusted her care to left her also. By
the time Dr. Dax Hayes returned from an overseas, volunteer medical
tour, she thought she was over his defection and ready to re-immerse
herself in the BDSM world she needed and missed so much without his
help. One scene proved how wrong she was and after Master Dax’s
timely rescue, she agrees to let him tutor her back into the
lifestyle. She hadn’t counted on her growing feelings for the
strict Dom or his refusal to take her over completely, like she
craved.
Dr.
Dax Hayes fell for Krista Matthews the minute he looked into her blue
eyes and saw the sated, content look she shared with her husband, Dr.
Kurt Matthews. He managed to keep his feelings and lust under
control until his friend and colleague asked him to join him in
gifting Krista with a menage for her birthday. Knowing it was a
mistake, but unable to resist, Dax succumbs to the temptation of this
one-time scene, never realizing where it would lead. A year later,
after sealing his fate with a questionable act, he flees on a guilt
trip only to return and discover nothing had changed-he still wanted
Krista Matthews with an ache that wouldn’t be assuaged by anyone
else.
Unable
to resist stepping in when she gets herself in trouble, Dax again
gives in to temptation and aids the one woman he can never have back
into the lifestyle her submissive nature needed. When a vindictive
woman tells Krista the truth, will her feelings be strong enough to
forgive him, or did he gamble everything only to lose it all in the
end?

Excerpt
Voices
nearing the surgery room filtered through the swinging doors and one
deep baritone sent a shiver of awareness dancing under Krista’s
suddenly tight skin. She turned just as Dax pushed through them and
her first thought was nothing had changed. He still towered over
her, his coal black hair still curled around his ears and nape and
those penetrating green eyes set in a tanned, chiseled face could
still draw a quick, heated response from her. She wasn’t sure she
could lay claim to being female if her heart rate didn’t pick up
speed or she didn’t go slightly damp when Dr. Dax Hayes walked into
a room.
He
left without a word for a year and a half. The reminder helped her
to believe that instant response meant nothing nor changed a thing.
Inhaling until she couldn’t hold any more air in her lungs, she
nodded and managed a small smile of welcome.
“Dr.
Hayes. It’s good to have you back again.”
Crap.
Krista had been about to congratulate herself on managing a cool,
but friendly greeting when he fisted those large hands on his lean
hips and cocked his head. His bland, generic reply belied his
intense regard that turned the butterflies of unwanted pleasure in
her stomach to jitters of long neglected need.
“It’s
nice to be back. How have you been, Krista?”
So
proper and reserved from a man whose cock she’d had in her mouth.
“Good. You?” she returned just as detached, her heart aching for
the easy friendship they shared before both he and Kurt deserted her.
She felt as lost and alone at this moment of stiff formality as she
had at her husband’s funeral.
He
stiffened and gazed at her for another silent moment, as if he too
found this initial meeting disappointing. “Better, now that I’m
stateside again. Let’s just say my tour reinforced how lucky we
are as opposed to some parts of the world.” Dax stepped forward,
his eyes softening as he said, “Krista, I…”
The
resident and nurse entered, and he clamped his mouth shut, yanking
his eyes off her with an abruptness that allowed Krista to release
her pent-up breath.
About
B.J. Wayne
I
live in the Midwest with my husband and our two dogs. I love dogs,
enjoy spending time with my daughter, babysitting dogs and kids,
reading and working puzzles. We have traveled extensively throughout
the states, Canada and just once overseas, but I much prefer being
homebody. I worked for a while writing articles for a local magazine
but soon found my interest in writing for myself peaking. My first
book was strictly spanking erotica, but I slowly evolved to writing
erotic romance with a touch of suspense. My favorite genre to read
is suspense.
