Review
I wasn't ready to end this series. No matter how excited I was to finally have in my hands the HERstory of one of our favorite club members, I just wasn't ready to say goodbye. But nothing lasts forever. Not even the greatest of things. Luckily, these are books, and stories have longevity and I will take the greatest comfort in knowing I can visit all of these amazing characters in the future, whenever I need them. 

Eden St. Clair, better known as the resident Madame Kink, has been keeping a secret. A secret that could cost her something she no longer believes in the value of. Love. And when her ex, a man who used to sub for her, comes waltzing back into her life with a woman on his arm who wants to learn, herself, to do what Eden does… her secret threatens no one more than herself. 

What I love about Sara is that she's never afraid to tackle the difficult emotions. She allows her characters to have terrible thoughts without making them terrible people. It's this blend of reality and wild fiction that truly lends her books to feel grounded and tangible in a way that leaves you feeling everything her characters do. This book is no expectation. She takes on difficult scenarios and uncommon tropes with finesse and grace which is nothing short of what our dearest Madame Eden deserves. Well, that and a happy ending, of course. 

I wasn't sure exactly how much I was going to love this one but, of course, Sara gets me feeling all kinds of ways. A perfect ending to a perfect series for a perfect character.
