Vivienne Carter is too busy for a relationship, or even a casual fling. She lives with her sister, and they are raising her teenage niece. Between that and working as a college professor, Vivienne has little time for anything else. One day, she comes across a business card in a book for dominatrix Selene. She’s intrigued, and there don’t need to be any feelings involved. When she discovers Selene is the new principle at her niece’s school and feelings get involved, the situation gets more complicated.
This was a fun, quick read. I’m a sucker for an ice-queen romance, so that’s what drew me to this one in the first place, that and Selene being both a principle and a dominatrix who has no trouble blending the two aspects of her life. I enjoyed the romantic dynamic, and though the niece was a little dramatic at times (what teenager isn’t?), I enjoyed this read. If you’re looking for something with a bit of spice to read this Valentine’s Day, give this one a shot.
