Laira Taggart is an out-of-work investigative reporter and she is compelled to investigate the murder of her best friend, Amy. The hot and sexy chief detective of the investigation, Sterling Dymond, has informed Laira that Amy's death has suggestingly similar elements of a murder involving BDSM. After performing some research, and realizing that she knows absolutely nothing about the BDSM lifestyle, Laira decides to immerse herself into the lifestyle to determine if the killer is hiding somewhere within its walls. A BDSM party sounds like a good place to start her investigation and Wylde Ride is her first stop. While there, she unintentionally meets Sterling again. He recognizes her from his interview of her a few days ago and calls her out as a fraud while she stands in the middle of the club in her come-fuck-me clothes. Sterling decides that she must prove she belongs in the club, in this lifestyle, so he gives her to his best friend, Jack, the owner of Wylde Ride and a man that demands obedience in every way. In order to prove to them that she isn't a fraud, thereby destroying any way to anonymously investigate for clues to Amy's murder, Laira must adhere to Jack's commands - even if that means pleasuring the delectable Sterling. After Laira falls for Jack, evidence surrounding the murder starts to trickle in and it's all pointing toward Jack. She is devastated that her heart can fall for a murderer while at the same time her head is telling her to run away. When the battle against head and heart are fought, Laira's heart wins and she must now help to clear Jack's name while calling the killer-coward out of hiding. In order to identify the killer, Laira deliberately places herself on public display at Wylde Ride for Jack, and Amy's killer, and yes, the killer comes out of hiding. She is kidnapped by him and his intent is to sacrifice her for the whore he thinks she is - all in the name of the Chosen Few. It then becomes a rush against time for Jack and Sterling to find and rescue her before the killer adds Laira's name to his long list of victims. Dominance/submission, Murder, and Intrigue.
