She was the beauty and the brawn, and he was the professor who got to study her.

Knowing that we were getting the stories of some of the "younger" crew from the Masters & Mercenaries world, I was intrigued to read David and Kyle's books... these are the sons of Grace and step-sons of Sean and while they don't feature a lot in the original books, I knew they'd be perfect to read to give us the first insight to being a child in the M&M world. After seeing glimpses of Kyle in Submission Impossible, Treasured - with Kyle's brother David as our hero - was perfect. David isn't your typical M&M hero... he is a history professor who doesn't (at first) seem to have a lot in common with the athletic, army/navy men we are used to. But don't be alarmed... David brings the Dom and the kink in ALL THE WAYS!! Add in Tessa - who we only know was once engaged to Michael Malone and isn't looking for love - who is all sorts of bada** in the way that a female bodyguard can be and this book was AMAZING. My only complaint ... it was too short!! I desperately need more!!
