Summary

A single mother’s brutal past threatens to destroy the new life she’s built in this suspenseful dark romance set in the underground world of kink。


Rae Dixon is lucky to be alive。 Fifteen years ago, she survived being trafficked and abused, escaping her captors to reclaim her life。 Now, she’s running a thriving business with her best friend and raising a teenage daughter on her own。 Rae’s finally in control—literally。 As Mistress V, Rae is the one calling the shots catering to Oklahoma City’s elite in her private dungeon, which fronts as a spa。

But when a client goes missing, Rae’s world spins out of control。

Detective Dayton Clearwater shows up at the spa, sparking panic when he asks questions that risk exposing Rae’s true business。 After several young women from her underground community disappear, too, Rae spots a chillingly familiar pattern。 Together, she and Detective Clearwater must find answers before more lives are destroyed, including those they love。

BDSM This book was interesting。 It is not heavy spice but some towards the end of the book。 Lots of BDSM that is non sexual。 That was fine as the book is more educational than sexy。 The book deals with lots of child trama, so be ready for that。 The main characters were likable and you will be rooting for them throughout the book。 I wish we could have had more of the cop side of all this though。

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it, click here。 This was good!!!!!!! I enjoyed the domme story line。 I 100% loved the empowerment and healing it provided for Rae and her clients。 I like the writing I believed her characters。 I believed the journey and the healing from the traumas。 I got this book as one of my first reads from Amazon。 100% pick it up。 It was a nice mix of a Procedural cop story with a mix of spice。

Wow ! Really enjoyed this read, kept me on edge the whole time and has a lot of important and impacting messages。

Coco Barnes

This could have been 5 stars, because it was a great story, but the heavy-handed social commentary came off as preachy and condescending。 I rolled my eyes a few times with the constant reiterations。

I decided to give this book a try because it is an Amazon First Reads pick for January and was marketed as a dark romance。 My interest was piqued because I was curious about what a traditional publisher would consider qualifies for this subgenre。 In my opinion, this book doesn’t really fit the brief for dark or romance, though I guess it *kind of sort of* qualifies。 Don’t get me wrong, the subject matter lends itself to a darker tale, but the execution of said subject matter neighbors more on th I decided to give this book a try because it is an Amazon First Reads pick for January and was marketed as a dark romance。 My interest was piqued because I was curious about what a traditional publisher would consider qualifies for this subgenre。 In my opinion, this book doesn’t really fit the brief for dark or romance, though I guess it *kind of sort of* qualifies。 Don’t get me wrong, the subject matter lends itself to a darker tale, but the execution of said subject matter neighbors more on the thriller/suspense genres than the dark romance subgenre。 Speaking of which, the “romance” in this book is definitely not the A plot, and didn’t ever quite land for me。 I just didn’t buy it。 There are also a couple of super squidgy consent moments between the two of them that do not remotely work in the year of our lord, 2024。 The first is the first time they’re *together* (and that is a huge part of the plot so I get why the author wrote the scene), but also the second time, when Rae isn’t sober。 Both instances just felt off and outdated, even though the first was in service of the plot。 The lack of Dayton’s POV and the inclusion of Echo as a past POV cemented that this is completely Rae’s story。 Which is fine… but that means it’s more thriller/suspense/women’s fiction with a romantic subplot than a straight romance。 Honestly, I don’t know what I would categorize this book as because it seems to want to achieve a lot of things。 Unfortunately, it never quite achieves any of them。 It became glaringly apparent that a white woman wrote this book because the characters of color were not portrayed with a lot of sensitivity or awareness。 It kind of felt like the author made Dayton’s character Indigenous just to service the narrative, without a thought to what the implications of writing an Indigenous character should or would mean。 The fact that he’s also a cop lends itself to this lack of cultural sensitivity and awareness。 To me, it all felt exploitative and appropriative。 And, while I greatly appreciated the author’s attempt to educate readers about the kink community, a lot of the text about said community and its practices felt like info dumping。 There was a LOT of telling in this book instead of showing, which was okay to read through the first couple of times, but was decidedly less charming as the story went on。 In the end, this book didn’t really work for me。 Perhaps if it had been marketed differently, I would have had different expectations going in, and that might have made reading it slightly more enjoyable。 But then again, given its other issues, probably not。 。。。more

This book provides an enlightening glance into the BDSM and domme/sub world for those who aren’t familiar or have preconceived notions of what that lifestyle entails。 A quick 5 hour read, it was suspenseful and intriguing。 The author handled the dual timelines especially well, which sometimes can lead to confusion or disjointed flow to a storyline。 Some portions were slow moving which in turn felt like the climax and resolution were hastily executed。 I thought Rae was a bit careless and naive in This book provides an enlightening glance into the BDSM and domme/sub world for those who aren’t familiar or have preconceived notions of what that lifestyle entails。 A quick 5 hour read, it was suspenseful and intriguing。 The author handled the dual timelines especially well, which sometimes can lead to confusion or disjointed flow to a storyline。 Some portions were slow moving which in turn felt like the climax and resolution were hastily executed。 I thought Rae was a bit careless and naive in never considering that Lily and her lives could be in jeopardy。 For someone who lived and survived through all she has, her street smarts seemed lacking。 If you’re interested in reading more about the world of dominatrix/sub, legal dungeons and BDSM, I highly recommend the memoir Whip Smart by Melissa Febos。 。。。more

Gripping in partsThis was definitely a bit darker in parts than I was expecting and a lot less spicy than expected too。There were some real page turner moments but then also moments that seemed to drag on or were unnecessary。I finished it within the space a day so clearly not a bad read at all。 Just maybe not the book for me。

4。5 Stars for me :)This was a very interesting read, not like anything I had read before。 I was a bit unsure about the theme of BDSM, but while BDSM was one of the main focuses of this book, it wasn't a super spicy book, I wouldn't call it smut either。 It had just the right amount of spice for me ^_^ I like a generous dash。 I loved how Rae grew from, basically nothing, to a successful woman。 The cards she was dealt in life weren't the best。 At times, it was like, "Not again, girlie!!"。 I did, ho 4。5 Stars for me :)This was a very interesting read, not like anything I had read before。 I was a bit unsure about the theme of BDSM, but while BDSM was one of the main focuses of this book, it wasn't a super spicy book, I wouldn't call it smut either。 It had just the right amount of spice for me ^_^ I like a generous dash。 I loved how Rae grew from, basically nothing, to a successful woman。 The cards she was dealt in life weren't the best。 At times, it was like, "Not again, girlie!!"。 I did, however, feel the end was rushed。 I would have preferred maybe another chapter or 2 to round it out。 Overall, I love a badass woman main character ❤️ and this book delivered。 Wouldn't mind maybe a sequel to follow Rae, Lily, Carli, and Dayton to where they all go now。 Thank you so much to the author herself, Heather Levy, for gifting me this copy during one of her giveaways ❤️ 。。。more

Hurt for Me takes you on a dark, thrilling roller coaster ride of trauma, heartbreak and grief, while also being a powerful story of shame demolishing female empowerment。Rae Dixon, the owner of a thriving dominatrix business, was trafficked and abused when she was 15, and barely escaped with her life。 Now, her life as a single mother is under her control, until one of her clients goes missing。 With the cops asking questions about her livelihood, and the fears of her past coming back to life, Rae Hurt for Me takes you on a dark, thrilling roller coaster ride of trauma, heartbreak and grief, while also being a powerful story of shame demolishing female empowerment。Rae Dixon, the owner of a thriving dominatrix business, was trafficked and abused when she was 15, and barely escaped with her life。 Now, her life as a single mother is under her control, until one of her clients goes missing。 With the cops asking questions about her livelihood, and the fears of her past coming back to life, Rae is determined to figure out what is happening to a string of missing women in her community。 Creating an alliance with the detective assigned to her case, she re-explores her past to help women who may be in the same situation in the present。 Told in alternating timelines, Rae's heartwrenching story had me glued to the pages, and by the end I was sad to be done with the full cast of characters。 Hurt for Me is a character-driven thriller that balances action-packed pacing with fully fleshed out emotional depth, and its depiction of the BDSM community was both respectful and insightful。 。。。more

Walking Through Needles was one of my favorite reads of 2021, a great story, but more than that it set the stage for Heather Levy。 I couldn't wait to see what this author would do next。Hurt For Me explores some of the same themes of past trauma and its impact on future self, but takes the ideas in new directions。 The dual narrative is extremely strong。 It's not often that I read a book with two timelines where I don't find myself more interested in one over the other。 It's a balancing act perfor Walking Through Needles was one of my favorite reads of 2021, a great story, but more than that it set the stage for Heather Levy。 I couldn't wait to see what this author would do next。Hurt For Me explores some of the same themes of past trauma and its impact on future self, but takes the ideas in new directions。 The dual narrative is extremely strong。 It's not often that I read a book with two timelines where I don't find myself more interested in one over the other。 It's a balancing act performed with expertise as Levy twines the portions of Rae's life, bouncing them off the other and peeling back the layers in an engaging and breathless way。Levy makes no bones about writing a story to break down and explore the taboos around BDSM, and in lesser hands, this novel could have come off preachy or soapboxy。 Instead, the author sprinkles in small moments and explanations that blend into the overarching story and inform while also entertaining。Perhaps the biggest strength of the book is Rae, a main character who has been through unspeakable trauma, but never feels like she's held up on a pedestal as a victim。 Even the older and wiser Rae has flaws and she isn't afraid to admit it to herself in attempts to better herself for the sake of her daughter。Hurt For Me is a sex-positive thriller with never a dull moment and promises to be a book people will talk about in 2024。 。。。more

I really enjoyed this book。 I loved how it went back and to from past and present。 Rae the main character has suffered a life of trauma and is based off all parts of her life colliding。 At 91% I felt I was still in the middle of the story and did feel the ending was rushed and could have done with a bit more tension。 However I really enjoyed this and needed more at the end of each chapter!

Marina Wilson

Omg!! This book was everything! This isn’t usually the type of book I read but I wanted to change it up and give it a shot and let me say I am not sorry! This book was the perfect amount of mystery, suspense, thrill and spice! Not to mention the plot, the plot had me second guessing everything, I was so close to even crying at the end!! I need another one!!
