The Submissive by Tara Sue Me
5.0

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS BOOK!

This is my second time reading it and it is just as good as the first time! I decided to reread it because The Dominant was recently released and I felt like I needed to refresh my memory of this novel in Abby’s POV before I read it in Nathaniel’s.

I admire Abby’s need to become Nathaniel’s submissive. She not only does it for herself, but because she wants to be with him. She has never been a submissive before and it just shows her determination by jumping into the deep end with Nathaniel.

In Abby’s perspective, we learn that Nathaniel has played a major role in her past; he prevented her mother from losing their house to foreclosure, six years prior. Later on we also discover that Nathaniel has been secretly infatuated with her for a long time, after noticing her while she was in college when he was visiting his best friend Todd on campus.

When Abby’s life is put in harms way in an accident, I completely swooned over the care that Nathaniel possesses towards her and the hope that he would open up to her in every capacity. Then there was the tears after he doesn’t reciprocate Abby’s love for him. You have to have learnt by now that I am an emotional wreck in sad, happy or funny moments in any book!

I cannot wait to read Abby and Nathaniel’s story from Nathaniel’s perspective. I also can’t wait to read the continuation of their story in The Training.
