Sometimes it's the cop who needs to hit the floor... 

Haunted by the worst case of my career, I knew only one way to exorcise the images from my mind, the victim from my soul ... Inside the club, I scanned the room. He was here—Camden Snow—a sex god in the guise of unpretentious youth. Only his ice-blue eyes gave evidence of the Dom who took whomever he wished, whatever way he wanted, with a look and a nod. Merciless. Cam found me watching him and fixed me with his arctic gaze. This time, I didn't walk away. He cocked an eyebrow.
Well?

The last thing I needed was mercy. I dropped to my knees. Three days after their explosive first encounter ... It was munch night at the most elite underground BDSM club in the Rockies... ...relaxed and informal, highlighted by the weekly Matchstick Challenge game. 

Detective Sergeant Hunter Dane, reigning champion, looked forward to a relaxing evening to start his 3 days off. A few beers on the deck. A sexy interlude. Stumping a challenger with a new puzzle. Home early for a decent night's sleep. But some people are so deadly serious about their games. 

Now Hunt has a fresh body and a new puzzle to solve in twenty-four hours if he wants to find a killer. And Dom Camden Snow comes along to help with a few games of his own in mind. 

Sherlock and John were never like this! 

The complete text of the original novella On His Knees, the Hunt&Cam origin story, comprises Part One of this novel. Other books of this series, starting with Dancing Men, are available now exclusively on Amazon.

My review: 

This book was on my TBR forever, so it was time to read it. 

I really enjoyed reading this story, Cam and Hunter were really great characters and the story was well written. The BDSM was hot and realistic, the romance was sweet, and the mystery was great. 

I thought this would be a BDSM story with a bit mystery, but it was rather a mystery story with a touch of BDSM. Since I'm not really into mystery, it was a bit disappointment for me, but I still enjoyed reading the book. 

Hunter in DOM mode was super HOT and I loved how he handled Cam. And Cam as a sub when he gave up control and did everything Hunt wanted and told him to, wow, I love realistic and amazing BDSM scenes, and those between Cam and Hunt was just that - amazing! 

Loved the book and can't wait to read the whole series.
