Ratings and reviews

The Reluctant Dom is the fourth book in the Suncoast Society series by Tymber Dalton. This is Kaden's, Seth's, & Leah's story. Kaden & Seth have known each other for over 40 years. They're not only best friends; they're more like brothers. Seth has always felt slightly inferior to Kaden, who's brilliant, full of kindness & has no problems navigating social situations. But none of that matters to Kaden. Seth is the one person who's always been there for him. He loves him unconditionally. After high school, Kaden headed for college while Seth went into basic training in the Army. Before they parted ways, however, one night, after killing a bottle of tequila together, Kaden and Seth experienced an incredible one-time three-way with a very willing co-ed. Neither has forgotten that night but they've also never really talked about it since then either. Seth's returned home. He's been through three wives & a construction business that was successful for a while. He's not destitute but he's also not rich. After divorce #3, he's living with his brother, Ben, & going back to school to get nursing degree since he was a medic in the Army. But, overall, he's happy with his life. While Seth was in the Army, Kaden went on to finish college & law school. He's now an incredibly successful attorney with a beautiful wife, Leah. They have a beautiful home, actually built by Seth's company during his construction career & they couldn't be happier. Or so it would seem. When Kaden asks Seth to lunch one day, he drops a bombshell. He's dying of pancreatic cancer. Seth's not just in shock. He's traumatized. At first, he thinks it's one of Kaden's famous practical jokes. But he soon realizes Kaden is very serious & his friend has a year, maybe two, left before he's gone. Seth tries everything to deny it. Has Kaden gotten a second opinion? Yeah, this was the third opinion. Surely there's some sort of treatment, maybe an experimental one, that he can try. But Kaden refuses to do anything that will diminish the quality of life that he has remaining to him. There's literally nothing that can be done. Seth is devastated beyond belief. The real problem comes when Kaden has to tell Leah. What no one but Kaden & Leah know is that Leah has a troubled & abusive past. They've been married for over 20 years & to all outward appearances, they are happy & have no problems. Kaden & Leah have secrets no one else can possibly guess. Kaden needs Seth's help, not only to break the news to Leah but to help her through the coming months, to get her through the illness, his death & the aftermath. Seth is horrified. He doesn't see how he can make any difference. But Kaden is his brother. He'll do whatever he can to help both of his best friends. What Seth soon learns is that both Kaden & Leah are kinky, a part of the local BDSM scene. They belong to, are actually founding members of, the local BDSM club, Venture. Seth knows absolutely nothing about kink or BDSM. When Kaden springs his other surprise on Seth, that he wants Seth to learn about BDSM from Kaden & Leah & become the third in their relationship, Seth is dumbfounded! Yes, he's always been attracted to & more than a little in love with Leah. One of his ex-wives was the spitting image of Leah. But to intrude on his best friends' marriage & become a part of it while Kaden is dying? It's unthinkable! This is only the beginning of a story that takes you from the heights of laughter, passion & the joy & discovery of new & exciting experiences never experienced by any of the triad to the very depths of pain, agony, grief & anguish. As Seth, Kaden & Leah travel this road , you're taken on a roller coaster ride of emotions. One final comment. This is an ADULT book. It contains adult BDSM themes, explicit language & sexual scenes. If you don't enjoy erotic romance with explicit sexual/BDSM scenes then carefully consider your purchase before buying. Please read the book synopsis/reviews at the seller's website. DON'T LEAVE A NEGATIVE REVIEW OF A BOOK WHEN YOU KNOW YOU WON'T ENJOY THE BOOK. Thanks for reading my review!

I have never cried so much readying a book. I cried because I could feel the tire love and pain in these characters. I wish to have that type of love one day. I am a college student and I have read many books that have shown me the love I want one day. A love that it's perfect but perfect for me. I love that will make me happy and a better person for it. I love that is strong even to catch me when I fall. I love that will be there no matter what I say or do. A love that will be impossible to replicate.

Amazing plot that touches you while also keeping your full attention. No spoilers but I've read this book over ten times simply because I love the story and the characters. Do not pass this up!
