About this listen

Darla was one of the few live-in submissives that he'd come to love. Twenty years his junior, she'd finished her course work and the exams for her PhD, then took a leave from NYU without writing the dissertation.

For several years, he'd let her hide in his penthouse: cared for and indulged, disciplined and educated, petted and punished.

He'd lost Darla, or - more accurately - set her free, to pursue the life she was meant to pursue, to be the person she was meant to be. That loss had hurt, but it had been the right thing to do.

Some time later, she'd sent him a gift, a young submissive she'd named Grace.

Damaged and vulnerable, Grace needed help, discipline and control, attention and compassion, healing from the kinds of abuse that often finds natural submissives.

In short - she needed a good master.

Being a dominant doesn't mean that you don't have obligations. He took Grace in. He provided her with the menu of nurturance and punishment that she so desperately needed. He taught her to understand herself - her needs and desires, her strengths and her vulnerabilities, her blind spots and her personal history.

Almost 20 years younger than the Master - like Darla - Grace isn't really suited to being a long-term lover or companion.

Does that mean he's doomed himself to a kind of serial monogamy, a string of younger submissives, an ongoing "catch and release" program?

Or is it time that he found someone his own age to play with?

This is a perspective from the Dom's side of a live in relationship. I found it interesting, since the sub is a live in. This story needed more though it is too short.

The dominant and Submissive relationship never ceases to amaze me. The amount of trust, understand, and attention one needs to be involved in such a relationship keeps me intrigued. This book was fun listen to with amazing narration.

Super hot with great steamy scenes and fantastic narration! I really enjoyed this audio! It was short but had a good story line and some amazing scenes for anyone who loves BDSM.

The Master always gave them what they needed! He was still thoughtful even when he didn’t have to be. Loved the narrator! Great accents!

Other than sex, I don't know what else happened. I'm not sure if it was that the story was confusing or if it was just so slow it didn't hold my attention, but I had to restart a few times and I still have no idea what the actual story is about. The narrator did a good job giving each character a unique voice. I received a free review copy in exchange for an honest review.

Any additional comments?

The Good Master Trilogy by Joy Zelig was a good read. He doesn't want to let Darla go but he knows its the best thing for her. Little does he know Darla will also give him a gift in Grace.

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

This book is not what I expected. I would not classify it as erotica - it is more a story about a master and submissive without the detail of sex an erotica goes into. That being said, it was an interesting look into the masters side of the relationship. If the story had more "beef" to it, I would really enjoy this series, and would like to read more - the author could have definitely delved more into the story rather than given a high level look.

The narration by Maxx Power was really well done. He gave the character more substance and was easy to listen to. I would enjoy listening to more of his work.

All in all, if you would like an easy, quick read then I would suggest giving this book a try.

I really enjoyed this story and would have enjoyed following the characters in much more detail. I also would have enjoyed learning how "master" and Julie take their relationship to the next level.

Well written if a bit too short :)

Wish there was more

The author is well versed in the lifestyle, It is told by the main character an older gentleman regarding two of his partners/bg. The storyline is good, This would not be suitable for somebody wanting detailed scenes. It is fantastically written so that if you are in the lifestyle you can read into what happens. It is a thoughtful story of one man's journey to find his happiness and growth.

A thoughtful and quaint kink story
