Enjoyable read! Fastpaced, easy to read standalone within the Sins and Secrets series. We've seen Tyson appear as a side character in previous books, and I was curious to get to know more about him. 
He always kept himself at a certain emotional distance. This time, we see a more vulnerable side of him as Kathy and he grow closer together, and he tries to help her out of the bad situation she's gotten into. While there are steamy scenes in this book, the story shines in the discussion of the more sensitive topics: imbalanced power dynamics and abuse within the kink community. Kath is never blamed as the victim, and the conversation revolves very much about what she needs to move on in a positive way. 
On the romance side, the chemistry between Kathy and Tyson was spot on, and I enjoyed their interactions.
