Book Blurb

Call him old-fashioned, but Connor believes a Dom should earn his leathers.

Connor Lee is very much into both men and BDSM. He already knows he’s a Dominant within the game of sex and power. He just wants to become a damn good Master. When he gets the opportunity to become part of an exclusive group of men who share his philosophy, he’s willing to submit to their rites of passage.

 

His appointed tutor isn’t Connor’s cup of double espresso by any stretch of the imagination. Stone Carver is dark, tall, muscled and he has the face of a man who has seen one fight too many. Stone notices Connor’s hesitation and sends him away to find someone to have fun with, and to return when he has made up his mind.

 

Connor meets Jesse, who is everything he has ever dreamed of, and he wants nothing more than to stay with the sweet—potential—submissive. He decides, however, to meet the challenge of submitting to Sir Stone, promising to return to Jesse after he has earned his leathers.

 

During one long day of pain, pleasure and a smidgeon of humiliation, Sir Stone teaches Connor more than he had bargained for. But has he learned enough to be the Dominant Jesse deserves?

Book Review

‘Earning His Leathers’ is an in-depth look at a budding Dom’s struggle to do the right thing, to become a caring master, and to know what he is doing. I certainly wish that all Doms took their role this seriously, and while Connor’s training seemed a little short, it was a good look into some of the psychology of someone who is a Dom, yet realizes he needs to learn how to do things right.

Connor is not a complete beginner. He knows the basics and has played with subs before, but he feels that he has much to learn before he can take more of an active role in the BDSM community. This idea of needing to “earn his leathers”, as it were, drives him to ask questions, and he ends up with a group of men who support each other, mentor the beginners, and give those whom they accept into their group a permanent home and ongoing support. Connor thinks this is a great idea, and the short training and tests he goes through are as fascinating as the insights he gains.

A great look at the underlying forces of men involved in BDSM, I think this story is entertaining, interesting, and hot all at the same time.
