Blurb
After her long-time taekwondo instructor passes away suddenly, Jodie Price is certain her dreams of Olympic glory have been dashed, and she is thrilled when bold, handsome coach Dylan Atkins offers his help. But Dylan’s training regimen will be more rigorous than anything Jodie has experienced before, and she quickly discovers that he is a firm believer in strict discipline.

When she is caught drinking in defiance of Dylan’s rules, Jodie soon finds herself sobbing and promising to do better as she is thoroughly paddled. Dylan’s stern correction arouses her deeply, however, and it isn’t long before he takes her in his arms and masters her completely. But though his skilled, dominant lovemaking leaves her utterly spent and satisfied, will Jodie trust him enough to tell him the truth when a powerful sponsor tries to use their romance to blackmail her?

Publisher’s Note: The Master includes spankings and sexual scenes. If such material offends you, please don’t buy this book.

Author Synopsis

Life can’t get any better, can it?

Jodie Price has landed a hot new taekwondo coach and the offer of sponsorship to get her to the Tokyo Olympics. She needs to be at peak physical fitness for the qualifying championships so she’s more than willing to promise there’ll be no more drinking or partying until after the selection is over. But she can’t resist one last fling before the work starts in earnest. After all, one night at her favourite BDSM club won’t do any harm…

But she hadn’t bargained on her sexy new coach being a dom, and when she literally bumps into Dylan Atkins at the club he’s determined to show her that he’s her master, in the dungeon as well as in the dojang. A hard spanking settles the matter.

Jodie and Dylan agree to put their relationship on hold and concentrate on their sport, but they can’t keep their hands off each other. It’s not long before Jodie ends up in his bed with her ass burning from another punishment. Their relationship deepens, and Jodie’s life seems perfect as she sets her sights firmly on making it to Tokyo with Team GB.

But when she discovers that the very person she thought of as her saviour is out to destroy her career with blackmail and threats she doesn’t know where to turn. Worse, the repercussions are affecting her relationship with Dylan. Suddenly, she has a lot more to lose than just her dreams of Olympic gold.

Excerpts (PG)

Dylan raised his eyebrows and gave Jodie a stern glare. “That’s the second time you’ve told me to shut up this week.”
Jodie grinned. “So, what are you going to do about it? Spank me?”
Dylan’s laugh finally broke the tension. “If you were my sub, then yes. But, lucky for you, you’re not. Okay, we’ll forget it ever happened.”
Not a chance. Jodie smiled sweetly and nodded. “While we’re on the subject, can I ask you a question?”
He tilted his head to one side and eyed her suspiciously. “Go on.”
“What were you doing at the club on Friday? Were you looking for someone to play with?”
“Not particularly. As I’m still fairly new to the area I thought I’d check out the local scene. I didn’t have any plans to play. I was there just to observe, but then I bumped into you.”
Jodie grinned, warmth flushing her cheeks. “I’m glad you did.”
Dylan gave her the sexy dom look that made her muscles turn to jelly—stern and uncompromising. “That was supposed to be a punishment.”
“Yeah, and it was. It bloody hurt. But it reminded me of why I got into the kink scene in the first place.”
“Oh?” Dylan raised his eyebrows and fixed his eyes on her, as if trying to see inside her head.
Jodie’s belly flipped as the power coming from them seemed to strip away her outward bravado. She knew without a doubt that he would always see right through her and would never let her get away with anything but total honesty.
“I… er… well, I’ve always found the whole concept of D/s fascinating. You know, a submissive giving up control for her dom and that dom punishing her if she deserves it and rewarding her if she’s been good. BDSM had become a bit of a game for me. I’d go along to the clubs and scene with someone because it was fun, but there wasn’t any actual D/s involved. In most cases, I’d end up telling the dom what to do. Anyway, that night, when you spanked me, you reminded me of what it feels like to be a real sub. Your punishment made sense and left me feeling grounded and chastised. I liked that feeling,” she finished in a whisper. Oh, God, what am I saying? “Shit, that sounds weird. Sorry, just ignore me.”
Dylan smiled, dropped his fork then rested his hand on hers. “It’s not weird at all. It sounds to me like you are a submissive who just needed a little reminder about the true nature of D/s.”
