Veena’s review of The Exposure (Submissive Series, Book 8) by Tara Sue Me
Erotic Romance published by Berkley 04 Oct 16
Meagan Bishop was initiated into BDSM by the photographer on her fashion shoot. An intense weekend where both partners explored their predilections came to an abrupt end when Luke disappeared from her life. Abandoning her successful modeling career, Meagan has reinvented herself as a power behind the scenes. The one thing she has brought with her to her new life is her desire to embrace BDSM. As a switch she successfully explores both sides of the dynamic, depending on her mood and partner. Her life has come full circle when she encounters Luke again in a BDSM club. Does fate have a different end in store for her than the one that was written years earlier? Luke has moved on from being a dabbler in BDSM to a respected and seasoned master. He’s no longer a fashion photographer, though he continues to indulge in his photography as a hobby. Commissioned to produce an erotic coffee table book, he instantly wants Meagan as his model. It’s difficult to predict how things might have turned out for them, but she’s being blackmailed and needs Luke to satisfy her blackmailer’s demands, and so the photo shoots for his book commence.
Suddenly it’s like the years in between never were. Every weekend becomes a play date where they both indulge, giving the story a delightful erotic edge to the romance. Threaded through the romantic interludes is the threat of the blackmailer, who has Meagan caught in his snare. Luke knows something’s up, but it’s poor Meagan who dreads the outcome when it all comes out into the open. Can she keep herself safe and the fallout contained?
This series has an excellent cast of characters and we get to visit with all of them. Dena has her baby shower with a nice cameo of Sasha and Cole. Meagan and Abby have stepped beyond their work environment, giving Abby a chance to interact with the rest of the characters of the play group and forming her own friendships. But the most interesting one is the nanny to the Wests’ children who is getting her toes wet in the BDSM pool. I anticipate her story in the near term.
Ms. Sue Me continues to deliver first-class erotic romance with this series.

Summary:
New York Times bestselling author Tara Sue Me’s Submissive series is back with a scorching new romance that proves the difference between excitement and pain is just point of view…
She’s ready for her close-up. . . .
Meagan Bishop gave up modeling after an ill-fated tryst with a sexy photographer left her career and heart in shambles. When that same sexy shutterbug makes a titillating offer to do a BDSM spread for his new photography book, she’s determined to refuse—until an anonymous blackmailer entices her to accept. Now her body is again at the whim of the man who broke her heart, and she’s finding his strong direction undeniably intriguing. . . .
Meagan is the muse Luke needs to make his shoot something special, even if it means keeping his hands off her. But each new erotic scene they capture makes it harder to ignore his need to command her in the bedroom as well as in the studio.
As their sexual tension explodes, Meagan’s arrangement with her extortionist becomes more perilous, putting in danger her darkest secrets and the fragile passion between Luke and her. . . .
