He Is A Dom With A Dangerous Past
Thank you so much for hosting me on your blog! ‘Joy To His World’ is my first BDSM book and I had so much fun writing it especially since this is a continuation in the lives of the main characters in my first menage erotic romance ‘Merry Chris Mas.’ After writing ‘Merry Chris Mas,’ I knew that was not all Chris Spinell, Jilly Reimers and Chris ‘Nate’ Poole had to say about their lives. And it turns out I was so right. When we meet them in this book, we see that they have come a long way since their initial meeting through the Love Play Matchmaking Service. Among other things Chris Spinell has learned to be embrace a side of himself he knew he always had deep inside of him but never had the confidence to live, which is becoming a full time Dom to Jilly and Chris ‘Nate’ Poole.
BDSM is different for each person who chooses to live the lifestyle and for the people they choose to live it with and the same is so the three of them. We learned in the first book that Chris Spinell suffers from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder from his army days while he was Afghanistan. I wanted to see, how the characters chose to live out there lives in light of this challenge whileas Chris wrestled with the demons from his past while trying to stretch their boundaries and maintaining their need at the same time.
Even though BDSM offers Chris the control he needs, it is also filled with words and behaviors that can trigger a PTSD episode which could send him into a tail spin! Despite this he still has the need to dominate his submissives in the same ways as other Doms. Because of that, I wondered how this would impact the lives of the two people he loved the most in the world Jilly and Nate. For instance, how did ‘ Nate transition from being in love with Jilly and not making love to Chris to submitting and bottoming to Chris. He and Chris have similar military training and backgrounds and are leaders in their personal and professional lives so why would he choose to become a submissive when he could have become a ‘Dom’ in their marriage to their wife Jilly too?
I believe the main reason why is Chris’ strength. The security and primal desire that surfaced every time Chris exerted his dominion over him was indescribable as Nate put it. He likened it to a velvet steel-like authority, smooth to the touch but very strong underneath. As for Jilly, why would a strong independent woman submit to two strong men? Perhaps it is because BDSM took her to a level of love and self esteem that she’d never known before.
Their love is strong though at times Chris’ desire to protect them goes overboard. Their love and Chris’ need to protective instincts are put to the test when a stranger comes to town and threatens Jilly and Nate’s safety.
How will Chris handle it? Will he be drawn into a world of darkness? Or will he maintain self control?

Excerpt
“What the hell is this all about?” Chris asked, storming up to Vander as he sat behind his desk inside the police station.
Vander held up his hands. “I know you’re pissed. But I have to do my job.”
“Hauling me in is doing your job?”
“No, but keeping the peace is. I had a feeling you’d end up at Gavner’s, so I told my deputy to check out the place at the beginning and toward the end of his patrol through town until this thing gets
straightened out,” Vander said. “I instructed him to sit tight and keep an eye out for any potential problems because I didn’t want things to escalate before I got a chance to handle them. And I will keep sending my guy over there until this guy moves out of town or you get that gangsta look out of your eye.”
Vander leaned in close. “Yeah I see it,” he whispered harshly. “You got that slow burn going on back there and clearly the fire is almost out of fuel. And if you open that door to throw Gavner in the flames, the resulting backdraft is going to blow this town apart. You are not a killer and this asshole is not worth going to prison for.”
“Now you’re protecting him?”
“Did you not hear me? I’m covering you. I know this guy is a walking piece of shit but that’s not against the law so I can’t arrest him. However, I’m pushing to have him evicted from the town based
on him not having prior authorization to reside here. So far, Love Play is okay with it and they are trying to get in contact with the Hendricks now.”
Chris saw red. He didn’t care about that bullshit. He wanted action. “Gavner assaulted my family, and all you can say is your waiting for paperwork?”
Vander jumped to his feet, grabbing his hat and coat off the stand. “He did what? Are they hurt?”
“They’re fine. They’re back at the house.”
“Wait,” Vander said, pausing. “Tell me exactly what Gavner did.”
“Nate and Jilly went to the mansion to handle some stuff to do with the party, and Gavner was there. He threatened them. You said you’d handle it, and I’m the one under arrest?”
“You aren’t. Nevertheless, I can’t let you get your hands on him, because if you do, I’ll be forced to arrest you for assault or worse.”
“Some friend you turned out to be.” Chris turned and walked to the door.
