After an introduction to the darker side of pleasure, Rebecca Andrews is anxious to experience the lifestyle to its fullest. Whisked away to a private, members-only resort by her lover, Quinn, she is given a deeper glimpse into BDSM, first as an observer, then as his participating partner.

Humbled that Rebecca has placed her trust in his hands, Quinn Montgomery intends to take her training slowly. She is strong, yes, but has a vulnerability she goes to great lengths to hide. But when he sees her interests in the props, and toys, he can't help but think he needs to start her training sooner rather than later.

She is soon taken to pleasure's edge, where rules and protocol both bind and heighten desires. When Quinn's rival turns fun and games turn in to something dark and dangerous, Rebecca is left shaken and scared when a hard limit is crossed, and Quinn fears he could lose the one woman who has come to mean so much to him.
