They were instantly attracted to each other. But can she accept that he is a Dom? Cade McCauley and Lydia Lang knew there was something between them the first day they met on a construction site where Cade was the foremen and Lydia was in the unusual position of serving as an American Sign Language (ASL) teacher for hearing-impaired high school students in a school-to-work program. Cade found Lydia an enigma. She was independent and full of spunk yet Cade suspected she was submissive. She was sassy and strong-willed but became submissive when he called her to task on issues of health and safety. Lydia thought Cade to be highly annoying, but because she had almost no experience with men, she struggled mightily with her attraction to him. He was domineering and take-charge but also gentle and caring. Lydia's inexperience with relationships and confusion about her feelings for Cade made it difficult for her to reconcile her growing attraction and his need for dominance. The barriers to moving ahead in a relationship seemed insurmountable to Lydia, but when she is in danger, Cade races to save her. Will that convince her that his feelings for her are real?

Their wedding and honeymoon were idyllic, but as summer approaches, Cade’s job as owner of a construction business naturally heats up. Lydia’s success serving as an American Sign Language interpreter in a successful pilot school to work program brings her some local fame and attention. The demands made on their time make life difficult as they struggle to find time for each other. When a state senator who wants Lydia to interpret his talks and speeches asks to meet with her, she is flattered. But the good looking and powerful Senator Jacobi is not what he seems. When his mildly inappropriate behavior escalates into an obsession, Lydia finds herself trapped alone – in her own home – with a man who announces his intentions to violate and hurt her. In an attempt to bring the senator to justice, Lydia needs the help of her best friend Sarah, a dynamic journalist committed to women’s rights, and other women who have also been victims. And because their men will never allow the risk and danger required to go after him, they must keep their work a secret for as long as they can. As it turns out, even in the time of 'Me Too,' it is difficult for regular women to prosecute powerful men. Publisher's This story contains a theme of power exchange.
