Jillian Price was once an ultra-successful real estate professional who has fallen on hard times in her career and was left to raise a child on her own.

Instant attraction leads to incredible chemistry as he takes her through ever more challenging levels of Bondage, Discipline, Humiliation and Extreme Gratification. The only problem?
