Mercy (Salacious Players' Club)

Product Information

I’m not an idiot—I know this is going to hurt, but pain has always enticed me. I want to feel it in the same way most people fear it. Like a fuse about to reach the dynamite, I need the pain to give me the release I’m looking for. I crave the explosion.” Beautifully, the story described Maggie and Beau’s growth and acceptance, embracing them and being comforted by the lifestyle, especially after Beau gave it up. I enjoyed reading about her insecurities in her new roles. How Maggie talked jazzed up. I liked and found Beau’s meanness about wanting to be punished for an acquittal and having someone else lead him because he was out of control amusing. I recognize that a man can be submissive and not lose his manhood, but the same can be true that the hero can be alpha despite being a submissive brat. Their relationship had an air of father-son. Also, Maggie’s joy at the administration of pain and the key event of submission weren’t that appealing, maybe because of that, and to me they defied her alpha. Still, the self-education, research, and careful experimentation with character boundaries, especially Maggie’s, were well done. Plus the aftercare was sweet and so heartwarmingly reassuring. Cullen Ayers wants to make her pay. His torment becomes her life, and she endures every second of it because she deserves it. What began as revenge soon turns into lust. He’s just eighteen, and she should really be ashamed of how good this all feels when they are alone with each other, yet she cannot help herself. She’s in too deep now. Sara Cate writes gripping contemporary romance with high stakes and big emotions. She has a soft spot for forbidden romance, the age difference, lots of heartbreak, and the boys are so mean you just have to love them.

What kind of older brother would I be if I let you go to D&D night without me?” “Technically…I’m closer to being your step-aunt.” Burn for Me” is a stand alone novel and was released in 2021. Everly ruined his life. It was her investigation that got his dad shipped off to jail. It’s Everly’s fault that his mom killed herself right after. She has regretted it every day since then. When he turns up in her journalism class, she knows she is in trouble. But I take my punishment in stride. There’s something strangely gratifying that comes with getting what you deserve. Because, once I’ve paid the price, I don’t have to live with the guilt anymore.”There are a million reasons why I should stay away, but I’m tired of doing what everyone thinks I should do. The vulnerability he’s expressing, the pain, fear, anger, all of it, is somehow as beautiful as much as it is haunting.” Maggie I roll my eyes. I can hold my tongue and watch what I say, but I can’t be held accountable for what my face does.” I haven't read the other books in the series, but the MMC is like 22 and was apparently a jerk to his ex-girlfriend, who was the FMC in a previous book. Cheated on her, etc. She ended up hooking up with his dad, and now they're living together and planning to get married, acting all lovey-dovey around him. I know this is a popular trope, but from a parent's point of view, what a terrible dad. The MMC is portrayed as this spoiled jerk for resenting it, but what kind of a parent gets into a serious relationship (or any relationship, really) with their child's ex? That is such a HUGE red flag. I was furious on his behalf and just couldn't keep reading. This book is both graphic and explicitly about a sexual relationship. If you’re sensitive to these topics… I don’t know why you’re trying to read this book lol

It’s bad enough being the only female owner of the Salacious Players’ Club, but I’m also the only one without a kink, or so I thought.

I don’t want to hurt him–I just want to punish him. It’s bad enough being the only female owner of the Salacious Players’ Club, but I’m also the only one without a kink, or so I thought. Imagine my surprise when the kink quiz suggests that I’m not so vanilla after all. In fact, I’m a lot more like Emerson Grant than I thought. Just one problem–I have no idea how to be a Domme. That is, until the app matches me with someone willing to help me learn. He’s too young for me. Too stubborn. Too good looking. And, oh yeah, my friend’s son. Beau Grant is a brat. I’d hate that about him if I didn’t love punishing him so much. Underneath all of that attitude is a man who is misunderstood, selfless, and in need of direction. But if he wants mercy, he has to earn it. There are a million reasons why I should stay away, but I’m tired of doing what everyone thinks I should do. I finally know what I want, and I’m ready to take what’s mine. Mercy by Sara Cate – eBook Details Along with the domme sub dynamics of Maggie and Beau and reading A Hot Spoiled Guy Crawling Inside His Lover and other D/s sessions, hot!, there were a few exercises that didn’t appeal to me as much. I can still appreciate his adherence to the pillars of BDSM: safe, sane, and consensual. I can also admit that Beau probably justified it and asked for it. My point is that as long as you’re happy, who cares if you follow convention. What other people think doesn’t matter.”
