With a
large number of Earth women disappearing and all leads point to Xarta,
Marina is
assigned to the
case. As an Earth Intergalactic Investigator, Marina feels this case will make her
career
and help her land the long-awaited promotion she’s been wanting. To succeed though, Marina will have to go to Xarta
undercover as
a bondage slave, which is the farthest thing desirable for her. But to
obtain
her goal she will do what she must. But she sure as hell is not
submitting to
any man!
Kaden, an Intergalactic
Marshall, is also on the case to break the slave ring. However, he has
experience that Marina
doesn’t - Kaden is a native on Xarta and a Dom. For him and Marina to
achieve
their goal of bringing the villains to justice, Marina must be his submissive.
Knowing
that she must play along, Marina
agrees to be a submissive to Kaden during the case. Marina just never expected that the
role as a
submissive might just suit her…
I fell in
love with Jaci Burton’s contemporary romances long ago and usually
remember
those first when thinking of this author. However, with every new genre
she
tries her hand at, she surprises me every time by drawing her reader in
and
holding them captive with her words, the worlds she creates and her
realistic
characters. With Bound to Trust,
book one in the Chains of Love
series, Ms. Burton tackles and succeeds another genre. With the
adventure and
intrigue of the case Marina and Kaden are on, and their smoldering
attraction,
readers are swept away for the ride of their life.
Kaden - Holy Moly - talk about sinful and
every woman’s fantasy come to life! He
melts all the ice around Marina’s
heart and that of the reader as well.
Their chemistry is undeniable, sweltering and air
conditioning does
nothing to cool things down.
Jaci Burton
shows the realism of BDSM, and she does it well with her brand of human
emotions, delicacy and a sure hand. Ms. Burton’s characters are treated
and
portrayed as family when written by her hand. That is a key reason that
no
matter the genre, I always read Jaci Burton.
Bound to Trust is a
great erotic romance that might just surprise a reader. There was more
to it
than even I thought there was. Let your
imagination soar while reading Bound
to Trust...you might just come to trust in this author for a
great and
exciting read every time!
