The story of Velvet Glove
At the ripe young age of twenty-two, Audrey Popkin is an SM Goldilocks in search of the perfect master. Her first candidate - an icy-eyed international banker - is far too cruel. Her second - a childhood sweetheart - is far too tender. When she meets charismatic bar owner Patrick Dugan, he seems just right. But can Audrey trust the man behind the charm? Or will the sexy Irishman drag her deeper into submission than even she would care to go?

This is one of my favorite books, with two of my favorite heroes. Despite the D/s theme, it's still plenty romantic. Hopefully, you'll enjoy it as much as I did! --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
