Fettered

She's a wedding planner. He owns a BDSM club. The last thing they're expecting...is each other. Emily Madigan is Seattle’s best wedding planner. Her superpower is managing a thousand details without dropping a single one, and her deepest desire is an hour-long bubble bath and a foot rub. Until her newest clients want to get married at a BDSM club. Damon Black owns Fettered. He’s proud of who he is and what he does, and nothing scares him.

“She smells like flowers - the dangerous ones that bloom in the night and occasionally eat unsuspecting bystanders.” Scorpio is a retired punk-rock singer and the baddest wedding logistics coordinator in the biz. She has a style. Spiky hair, chains, and unending attitude. Harlan is the big, tough, tats-and-leather manager of Fettered, Seattle’s best BDSM club. He’s curious what might be under Scorpio’s spikes, and he’s got infallible instincts where subs are concerned.

Gabby’s teaching a cooking class for Doms. The guy who walks in knows all about turning up the heat. Gabby is a sweet, cookie-baking 43-year-old receptionist, mother to three grown girls and deeply in love with her two granddaughters. She’s never felt the tiniest bit kinky - but the deep happiness in her office is contagious, and it’s doing strange things to her very private daydreams. Ten years ago, Daniel had subs lining up for miles. These days he’s looking for something different - but even he can’t imagine a 43-year-old grandmother is the answer. Until he meets her.

Spankings and babies definitely don’t mix - and Mattie wants both. Mattie wants a baby. She also wants a Dom, and she’s a sub who needs a strong one. One who knows how to wield the tools of hand and mind and voice and drive her to that strong, silent, crystal-clear place that’s the whole reason she does this. Milo doesn't know what he wants. Building the best spanking benches in the business isn't working for him anymore, and neither is using them, and it has him questioning everything. What he likes. What he needs. Who he is.

Quint is about to meet his kryptonite. Quint wears the title of hard-ass Dom with pride. He keeps fettered safe for the kind of play he needs. Meghan is tired of watching from the sidelines as everyone else in her office falls over like newly kinky dominoes. So she’s come to ask some questions, but that doesn't mean she's willing to sign on the dotted line - or strip her soul naked.

Chloe is Fettered’s newest business partner. She’s not kinky and definitely not a sub. Which isn’t a problem. Or so she thinks until she sees the man on the stage, playing the keyboard and looking at her with eyes she’s never forgotten.

Ari is a kinky goddess, a beacon and friend and trainer to others in the lifestyle - someone who knows herself inside and out and walks a path of courage and honesty; one, she’s afraid, no one can match. Jackson is a baby Dom. He’s not ready for Ari, and he knows it. He’s patient. He’s made peace with the need to watch and wait and learn. Except she can’t wait that long.
