Description:
He’ll catch her in the act—and never let her go.

No one breaches the defenses of billionaire Dom Stephen Black—until Aria Swift does just that, stealing a priceless painting from his collection—along with his heart. But two can play that game, and soon a treasured necklace that belonged to Aria’s late mother ends up in Stephen’s skilled, waiting hands—along with a dare to retrieve it…

Eight years later, Aria is ready to put closure on her infamous past by meeting Stephen’s challenge. And suddenly, she’s caught in his trap…

There’s only one way to master a woman like Aria—and only one place to do it. Stephen’s luxuriously decadent Gold Room is where he’ll mete out her punishment, stroke by excruciatingly ecstatic stroke. Where Aria will submit to his every desire—and find in his touch, in his control, a frenzied yearning, and the ultimate pleasure of surrender…

My Opinion

Reclaimed By Her Master was a quick, hot read. It was a lot more intense than other books I've read in this genre and Stephen's control was more exaggerated than what I'm used to.

This book is a novella so it's short and only takes place over one night. Because of that it leaves little room for character development, but I could feel the spark and connection between the Aria and Stephen. I was intrigued by the start and I liked the resistance between them.

I will admit that I didn't always find the writing clear to follow. A few times I had to flick back because things weren't making sense and weren't easy to understand or imagine. This was mostly in the latter parts of the book.

Overall though, it was a hot read. It kept my interest and if you're interested in this type of thing it may interest you.
