Short Summary:

At heart, Luna Weir always knew she was a submissive. But after an experience that left much to be desired, she was ready to walk away from it all, even after a string of disappointing vanilla relationships. So when she promises herself one last shot in the form of attending a munch, the last thing she expects is to be pulled back into the fetish scene.

And that is precisely where she meets Jacob Dakota - Mr. Tall, Dark and entirely Dominant. But is he enough for her to take the leap of faith and relinquish control? Or will she turn her back on her nature, once and for all?

Possible Triggers:

BDSM, explicit scenes and adult themes

Strongest Writing Trait:

Descriptiveness, character development

Weakest Writing Trait:

Telling instead of showing, long-windedness

Help request:

Please help me spot where I am telling and showing and especially when I am over-explaining. I'd also appreciate help in ensuring my cast of characters are diverse enough and the plot is believable. Lastly, I want to make sure I am doing the BDSM community justice and the main relationship doesn't end up being abuse disguised as D/s.
