Part Four: Passion
In the thrilling conclusion of Shelly Bell's
White Collared series, Kate and Jaxon are finally free to put the past behind
them, but a shocking betrayal could have deadly consequences that neither saw
coming.
Compelled by
truth …
With Alyssa's
murder solved, Kate attempts to fix the damage to her relationship with Jaxon,
but with his reputation and career destroyed by false accusations, Jaxon asks
for time to consider their future. Yet as hard as Kate tries, she can't
extinguish her desire for Jaxon, or forget the pleasure she's found in
submission.

love …
In an attempt to
convince Jaxon they truly belong together, Kate allows him to dominate her
completely, signifying her trust and proving her love. But just as everything
she's ever dreamed of is finally within her grasp, Kate discovers a chilling
secret from Alyssa's past that brings her world crashing down … and reveals a
murderer hiding in plain sight.

MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT BDSM
all about sex.
TRUTH: BDSM is about many
things and sex is only a part. It’s a consensual exchange of power.
all about pain.
TRUTH: BDSM stands for bondage,
discipline, dominance, submission, sadism, masochism. In other words, there are
a variety of ways people practice BDSM. Just because you’re a submissive
doesn’t mean you’re a masochist and not all Dominants enjoy inflicting pain.
Whips and chains are not required.
are killers.
TRUTH: Are some killers
sadists? Yes. Are some sadists killers? Yes. But sadism in itself does not mean
you’re prone toward violence. To qualify as BDSM, it must be consensual.
are mostly men.
TRUTH: While most erotic
romances about BDSM showcase male Dominants, female Dominants or Dommes are
common.
only one way to practice it.
TRUTH: Every healthy
relationship includes responsibilities, expectations, and boundaries. But what
works in one relationship may not work for another. It’s the same in BDSM, only
the responsibilities, expectations, and boundaries are explicitly negotiated.
who engage in the lifestyle are abusers or suffer from abuse
.
TRUTH: BDSM is not abuse. First,
it is consensual. Second, the masochist/submissive/bottom can use his/her safe
word to stop it. Third, there is no research to suggest a higher incidence of
previous abuse for those in the BDSM lifestyle than the general population.
7. People who engage in the lifestyle have a psychological condition.
TRUTH: The American Psychiatric
Society no longer classifies participation in BDSM as a mental disorder.
8. People in the lifestyle are promiscuous.
TRUTH: There is no evidence to
support that those who engage in BDSM are any more promiscuous than the general
population.
9. No one you know practices it.
TRUTH: Want to bet? An
estimated five to ten percent of people practice S&M, but plenty more tie
up their lover in the bedroom (thirty percent). Ever allow a lover to blindfold
you? In doing so, you’re consensually handing over power to him/her and
trusting him/her to honor your boundaries. This is part of BDSM. Based on that
definition, twenty percent of the population engages in the practice.
10. It is your business to know what happens behind closed doors.
TRUTH: Even if your neighbors
are part of the lifestyle, it is none of your business. They have the same
right to privacy as you, so unless they choose to divulge their sexual
activities, don’t worry about it. They won’t bite you without your consent. J

Wow what an ending to last installments by Shelly Bell. I am looking forward to more from this author.
We finally find out who Alyssa first Dom is, that was a complete shock to be although there were hints through the series that would lead one to think he was. And he got what he deserved in the end. Being a DOM was one thing but being a murder was another. I never saw that one coming.
Kate always one to never back down, learns the truth about who the murder is and why he did it. It is hard for her to believe too. She thought so much of him. But looks can be deceiving. He played the part perfectly, no one close to him knew.
I am glad that Kate got her HEA. I do not what to spoil anything. After all the mystery, drama and heartbreak, Kate is finally at a place in her life to be happy. This entire series had me thinking who did it and why. Now that I know the answers, it ended perfectly. I would love to see more of Kate.
