It’s been a while since I finished The Master’s Prize by Maggie Nash, but I’ll try to write a quick review. It will be short though, because of the elapsed time.
Mitch has noticed Elise when she visited Club Fetish on a dare. Mitch was training a Master and Elise was intrigued. He finds out that she is a radio show host and when he learns about the radio charity auction he is the first to claim the prize: a kiss from radio host Elise. This is a nice point of departion for a hot story. The moment the two kiss the heat is on. No matter how hard Elise tries to resist him, his touches and kisses are blowing her away. Ms Nash does a great job to render their arousal and attraction in these and later love scenes. I found this a scorching hot read, with nice characters and a little bit of bondage to increase the pleasure between the hero and heroine. Mitch is said to be a Master but I wasn’t convinced he is the real deal, or that Elise is a truly submissive. Bondage is just a nice sexual play for them, which is fine by me, by the way. It added a little more tension to the plot, which was built well. So, The Master’s Prize is a good, quick read that I can recommend.
