As a dominant and sadist, he can give her what she needs, and when an opportunity arises, he slips into her life, intending to make amends. She's everything he knew she would be. . . except for her bullheaded determination to be "normal. " Free from the slavers, Linda just wants to return to her small conservative town, pick up her quiet life, and be normal. But how can someone who likes pain be "normal"? To her dismay, when someone spray-paints her home with obscenities, Sam shows up to rescue her. Again. Doesn't he understand that the last thing she needs in her life is a sadist? His amusement at her objections doesn't disguise that he's tough as nails, very dominant, and extremely stubborn. He's won't let her drive him off this time. . . not when they both know she wants him to stay. In the Shadowlands club, she finds acceptance and friendship. . . until she hears a voice from out of her nightmares.

When his sick mother begged him to change his lifestyle, he agreed to try to live sober, but that change is hard. Neither is it easy to stop staring at Dean Winters after he nearly knocks the man over before a performance. A former recluse, prone to panic attacks after surviving a traumatic accident, Dean isn't Jonathan's usual type. Still, Jonathan is irresistibly attracted to him, and decides to cure the itch with a one-night stand. But that night, he's shaken by Dean's kindness and consideration--something he's not used to in a lover or a friend. His best friend, Rachel, who co-owns the troupe with Jonathan, sees Dean as a threat to their friendship and to the troupe--the dream they've worked together to build. She reveals a cruel and possessive streak that could do much greater damage on both fronts, and Jonathan realizes he will have to choose between the nomadic life he's lived and the man who is stealing his heart.
