Book one in the Blackened Window series

Her naiveté and his intensity fuse into a time bomb of sex and secrets. Can a young feminist and a Dominant with secrets make it work?

“The first year is the most traumatic.” Leda’s medical school advisor’s words seemed like the words of a retiring blowhard, until she met Xander.

What starts as a tutorial in anatomy quickly evolves into Xander’s desire to possess Leda. While she is drawn to him, wants to give in and experience sharp passion unlike any she has ever known, she has reservations. Can a feminist, a modern independent woman truly be a sexual submissive? Why is he holding back? What is the dark past that Xander is hiding from her? And ultimately, can she trust him—with her body and her heart?

Xander wasn’t looking for a submissive, but his attraction to Leda is undeniable. He tries to follow caution, but ultimately he has to take her, subdue her, at her insistence. The more he opens himself up to her, though, the more his past comes back to haunt him, with nearly catastrophic events when his former lover shows up at their door on New Year’s Eve. How can he keep and protect Leda from all the risks of his kink, when he knows
he
is the biggest threat to her wellbeing?

Acknowledgements

 

I wrote this book without any real belief that it would reach anyone other than a few people close to me. I secretly hoped that it would, but knew enough about publishing to know that books don’t get published just because the author hopes for it. I wrote it because it made me happy to do it. I enjoyed writing something that explored sex, relationships, sexual politics, BDSM and feminism.

 

I have to thank the people who have helped me. Very early in my writing I decided that I’d submit short stories because the worst that could happen is that someone would say “No.” I started with short story anthologies and I have to thank Rachel Kramer Bussel and Alison Tyler for being the first people to read and accept my work. When I learned about the BDSM Writer’s Con Book Contest, I had a similar approach. No one can say “Yes” if I never ask. So I submitted the first iteration of this book, and was selected as a finalist. Dr Charley Ferrer is the powerhouse behind the Con and my gratitude to her and the selection committee is immense. The Con was phenomenal and I got word that the contract with Totally Bound was finalized shortly after I got home.

 

The people I have worked with at Totally Bound have been nearly supernaturally patient with someone who has never done this before, who didn’t know entirely how to use the software correctly at the beginning and certainly didn’t know the usual protocols for how to navigate the publication of a book. Thank you to my editor, liaison to publishing and all around possessor of saintly patience, Jenny Douglas. This is most assuredly a better book because of you.

Chapter One

 

 

 

Xander

3OH!3
Double Vision

 

At the beginning of my second year of medical school, I was ambivalent, at best. Sometimes I felt right on the edge of something amazing, but mostly, it felt like waiting for the real thing to happen. It didn’t help that I wasn’t hooked in and invested the way most of the Ivy League overachievers were.

My mentor had told me the first year was the most traumatic. He didn’t know shit. It was the second year that fucked my world up, and it wasn’t school. It wasn’t medicine. It was her. She nearly destroyed me.
