The Edge and Beyond (Doms At The Edge (Book 1))

The Edge and Beyond started out as a single short story. By the time the book was completed it was five short stories; each story working well as a stand-alone, each smoothly co-existing with the rest as a complete book. The same characters are in each story, and they are all centered in a BDSM club called Edge of Darkness and its subsidiary, Beyond the Edge. You will meet several beautiful, strong women, and the stronger men whom they come to love and trust.

Metanonia
Skylar Markham, City Librarian with secret dreams of being dominated is let out of her emotional cage by Hunter Zane, who puts her under contract as his submissive assistant in his Dom Mentoring Program. His conscience is already on overload because of the wife he buried in Afghanistan, and the last thing he wants is to love again. Skylar’s greatest survival tool is self control, borne out of some past pains. Can he love her enough to save her when she falls into the hands of a criminal sadist? Can she love herself, enough to let him?

Rasavada
Trisha Gary escaped from the “Community” when she was thirteen, but she took her nightmares of sinful cleansing with her. Jackson Montgomery, owner of Edge of Darkness took on the responsibility of proving to her that one doesn’t go to hell for enjoying pleasure. He opened her world, and he opened her body, and she was doing beautifully, until Quinton Davis, self-appointed confessor for the Community was paroled.

Love is Our Safe Word
Wyatt Gregor hadn’t been able to save his sister, the women in the POW Camp, or Wren the firefighter he planned to marry. One of the most powerful Doms at Beyond the Edge, he allows no one close. Kayleen Crystal, a widow who is seven months pregnant and still grieving her husband Joe, slips her sassy self under Wyatt’s radar. When she has a car accident that Wyatt feels responsible for he winds up her reluctant caregiver. In her head, she refers to him as “The Asshole Dom.” In his head he’s constantly counting to ten and wondering if he’s going to survive her punishing antics. He can’t believe how erotically beautiful her pregnant body is. When Joe’s identical twin, Nick, surfaces, Kayleen learns the hard way that the identical is all on the surface. The clock is ticking, hard labor has started.

Discovering the Dom Within
Stryker Prescott, well-respected head of the K-9 program for the San Francisco Police Department had been divorced from Vicki for five years, and he didn’t have a clue about what had gone wrong, until his good friend, Jackson Montgomery, owner of Edge of Darkness, told him that from where he sat that both Stryker and Vicki had been trying to wear the pants in the family. It took time in Hunter Zane’s Dom Mentoring Program for Stryker to find himself. When he accidentally learns that Vicki is actually a submissive with walls of fear that have given her an illusion of dominance, he wants to help her. Could he get her to trust him enough to let go of her control and accept his dominance? Is there a second chance for them, or is all hope lost?

Building Bridges of Trust
Jacob Strong, wealthy investor has land that Jackson Montgomery wants for a new club. Jackson has an enemy that is doing every illegal, sadistic thing he can to bring him down. When Jackson sweetens the pot in the real estate deal by cutting Jacob in as a silent partner for the new club, Jacob finds that the evil now stalks him too. The only thing that keeps him centered is a beautiful submissive named Sherilynn – who shares his passion for Japanese Rope Bondage – Shabari. Can Jacob’s Shabari lessons save her when evil gets its claws in her?
