A seductive masterful crafted sexy tale!!!! The Master by Tara Sue Me is absolutely stunning!!!! Tara Sue Me has once again bewitched me with her gorgeous prose and emotionally raw characters. Seven books into the series, I am still enchanted with every character and what they bring forth to the dominant/submissive storyline.

The Master and like the previous books of the series were written so beautifully that it highlights the beauty of this erotic BDSM lifestyle that each of the characters embark upon. This story encompasses so much depth, raw emotions, and beauty that readers like myself don't see this BDSM lifestyle as disgusting. Though this lifestyle is not for everyone, Tara Sue Me allows her readers to see it in the eyes of the people who wanted to be in a Dominant/Submissive relationship. She allowed readers to get in depth perspective of what it entails not just sex.

The beauty of the storyline of The Master is the special dynamic and relationship of Sasha Blake and Cole Johnson. If you have read the previous book, then readers are well aware that Sasha was badly hurt from her previous Master. It left Sasha feeling scared and emotionally distraught. But after several months, Sasha missed the Dom/Sub relationship and wants to rejoin the group. And in order to rejoin the group, she would need to be retrained. And the Master to retrain Sasha to gain back her confidence is Cole.

Master Cole Johnson has always intrigued me. He was the Master, whose presence could be intimidating and yet wildly attractive. And he was the one Master that readers knew nothing about and so I could't wait for Tara Sue Me to slowly and seductively reveal the real Cole.
So when Master Cole was assigned to help retrain Sasha, it was exciting and nerve wrecking for Sasha. He was the one Master who could break and save her all at once. The retraining of Sasha was so different than I would have expected. Cole went about training Sasha in a way with his mind. His words invoked something deep inside Sasha. He allowed her to see that he has to earn her trust. The meaning of his words and the look in his eyes was more domineering than Sasha could have imagined. She allowed Cole to see small facets of the real Sasha. The Sasha that doesn't want to be afraid anymore. The Sasha who wants to be loved and controlled. The Sasha who wants to be a slave and her Master be Cole.

The Master is not a story where I can fully review because this book needs to be experienced through the eyes of Sasha and Cole. It is about seeing the real Sasha and Cole. The Dominant and the Submissive. The teacher and the student. The Master and the slave. And most importantly as Sasha and Cole, the lovers.
So if you are looking for a book where Tara Sue Me paints a literary masterpiece that is composed of beauty, raw, depth, sex, control, pleasure, and love then look no further because this book is for you. The Master is not about an erotic sex journey but an erotic sexual discovering of finding oneself and inner strength to willfully choose this lifestyle and love. And Tara Sue Me has clearly outdone herself in this book as she held her readers captive in a story full of raw emotions, depth, second chances, and love.
