Jack Smith answers the call of his buddy, Case Roberts, and finds himself dealing with an emotionally fragile victim of vicious abuse. She has just been sprung from the dungeon of one of the cities most vicious sexual predators. Amanda Byrne is cursing herself for giving her mind body and soul to Victor Wakefield. Jack can’t stand the lost face on the angel in front of him. He refuses to act on his desires knowing he is a Dominant and the last thing that Amanda needs at this time. Even though she knows that she might have a sexual relationship in the future, Amanda can’t imagine finding another man she could possibly trust with the intimacy of her submission. Jack attracts her but he is a cop and deserves a decent woman and she knows she just isn’t good enough for him.
Heart wrenching, yet beautiful, Refugee by Lucynda Storey is book 2 of the Irresistible series. A continuation of Simply Irresistible, it covers the rebirth of a submissive as she struggles with her destroyed life. Amanda is a strong woman who slowly had her will stolen from her in the guise of love and submission. Intelligent, she is scared to have to pick up her life but she refuses to let life be over. Jack is a complex man dealing with his own demons and a temper that leads him into all sorts of trouble. His conviction that Amanda deserves better than him is passionate. Both hide secrets but they build a tentative relationship. Fortunately, they find neither can resist their passion. The sex is tender, hot and beautiful. The plot merges well with the previous story, but it is also able to stand alone. There is discussion of some evil acts done (before Amanda is rescued from Victor) but the story involves more of the emotional side of BDSM. This is a sweet relationship with tantalizing scenes that had me smelling the roses. Ms. Storey has another winner with Refugee.
