A guarded student. A dominant tutor. When trust turns intimate, Jamie learns that submission can heal or destroy everything. Jamie hides behind good grades, polite smiles, and a secret side job he can't afford to lose. His world is carefully controlled. That is until his sharp-tongued assigned tutor sees through the act. Arnie is everything Jamie shouldn't want: older, dominant, and far too observant. What begins as curiosity and control slowly unravels into something tender, dangerous, and real. As trust deepens and boundaries blur, love becomes both a refuge and a risk. But when the past refuses to stay buried, Jamie and Arnie must face the truth about power, protection, and the cost of being seen. A story of submission, healing, and finding family in the most unexpected places. Books 1 & 2 & 3
