Reading His Submissive (Restrained Fantasies Book 2) Kindle Edition
I’ve spent my life depending on one person: myself. I’ve learned the hard way that other people will only let me down. I’ve worked for everything I have, but thanks to my drug-addicted mother, I’m about to lose the one thing I’ve craved for years. Needing to make some extra cash, I ask my boss at Restrained Fantasies, a Dallas BDSM club, for some extra shifts. Much to my chagrin, Master Carter Burkes is with him, and he leaps to my rescue, bound and determined to save me – only I’m not the kind of girl who needs to be saved.
Carter:
I can’t sit by while Raven, a recurring figure in my fantasies, is in trouble. My job as a detective keeps me busy, but I’m not looking for a relationship, just a sub to assist with a class I’m teaching: Reading Your Submissive. Raven always claimed she wasn’t a member of the lifestyle, so imagine my surprise when I discover a budding submissive inside her. She gets under my skin in ways I can’t fight, but emotions are dangerous. I learned that the hard way. Is getting close to her a mistake? Will I destroy her life like I destroyed the life of the only woman I’ve ever loved?
This is book two in the Restrained Fantasies series but can be read as a standalone.

About the author

Brandi Evans was raised by a caravan of traveling Gypsies. She spent her days learning the ways of her people and her nights lost in legends as old as time. Okay, not really, but that's way more interesting than the truth!
In reality, Brandi grew up the oldest child of an ordinary family. Grade school, middle school, high school. Nothing extraordinary happened until she left the nest. She joined the military, went to college, got married, and became a mom. And somewhere along the way, she discovered she liked to read—and write!—stories hot enough to melt eReaders.

- Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2018Book two was a great addition to the series and will read well as a stand-alone. It does have a few of the people from book one, His Forbidden Submissive because a good bit of the story also revolves around the BDSM club, Restrained Fantasies. The story is a journey of survival, moving forward, new discoveries, and haunted past. It will include Raven, who works as a bartender at the club but does not participate in the lifestyle, and Detective Carter Burkes, who not only is a Master but teaches classes to other Doms on how to read their subs.
Sometimes to escape the horrors of your past, you will need to reinvent yourself, and for Genny Malek, she will step outside of her comfort zone and work at a BDSM club as a bartender. She will also go by the name Raven Malek, and along with her black hair, she will have streaks of purple and also tattoos. While she may work in the club, she never participates, she does it for the great pay. She is also now friends with the owner, Master Brock and his submissive, Viv.
Master Carter finds himself hours away from teaching a class on how a Dom can better read a sub when his scheduled classroom submissive calls in sick. While in Brocks office, Raven asks for an audience because she needs to pick up more shifts. This is Carter’s opening to offer her a chance if she acts as his submissive for the class. He promises her that nothing will happen, and no one will touch her. She is actually a great candidate because she isn’t in the lifestyle and her responses will be less jaded and ideal for the new Doms to be able to read properly.
“I will not hurt you. I will not expose you to any other Doms or allow them to hurt you or touch you. You have my word, Raven. Trust me.”
The plot of the story will be the beginning of a journey between Carter and Raven. He knows about her mother and all her arrest, but the more he gets to know Raven, and the nightmare she lived as a child and is still coping with as an adult, the more he admires her for what all she has overcome. Getting her to trust him in the Doms reading their subs class, is also teaching her and she will be willing to further explore with him.
“Overcoming your own mind is often the hardest thing for a sub. Apparently, it was hard for Doms, too.” “Pain and pleasure are two sides of the same coin.”
The story will be a revelation of secrets, painful past, haunting nightmares, and dealing with the present. No matter what Raven does to try and escape her mother who is addicted to meth and prostitutes herself, she is still her mother. For Carter, a past case leaves him feeling like he doomed never to have love and happiness.
“They were two broken souls who’d been lucky enough to find each other. Before Carter, she’d never believed in soul mates, but he made her rethink everything. They were two halves of a fragmented whole, but when they held each other, they healed each other.”
The story has detailed BDSM scenes and involves a controlled class for teaching. It also has scenes between Carter and Raven in private and includes explicit sex scenes.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2018Raven is in desperate straits. She needs funds asap. Her mother is a drug/alcohol abuser who has 'helped' herself to Raven's much need funds. So desperate for cash she asks her boss the owner of the BDSM club/bar for more hours. She'd do practically anything to garner funds. Luckily, Carter Burkes is in the office and offers her a proposition. Be his submissive while he teaches class. But can she put aside her fears of punishment and test her curiosities, something she's always wanted, with the dominant Master Carter?
- Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2021When Master Carter needs assistance with his class on nonverbal communication, he learns that the club bartender, Raven, is sorely in need of the money she'll earn from helping him. He's been interested in her from afar but some things stand in the way. Though working in a BDSM club, she's not in the lifestyle. After finding her in the locker room crying, his heart becomes tender for her but his own past still haunts him and he refuses to admit he's falling for her hard. Two people so broken and so in their own heads too much creates a rough road for them both. Fortunately they have Brandi Evans to tell their story and bring about their happily ever after.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2018A story about two troubled people, Raven and Carter, who meet and fall in love. They are intelligent, know that they are troubled, but are thrown together and gradually work through a lot of baggage to learn to love and appreciate each other. The story moves fairly quickly, the main characters and supporting characters are all likable, the BDSM scenes are warm and sensual – and the sex is hot.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 1, 2020Brandi’s writing are so spot on that you feel you are part of her writings. Another must read and now getting set up to read the next book in this series. ❤️❤️
- Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2018This book was powerful and on point! You could feel Raven's apprehension about what she'd agreed to do at the club. Nothing like a few big O's to calm you and make you more agreeable though. I just loved the relationship development between she and Carter with both of them being vulnerable at different points of the story. Very good read.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2018A great story with to troubled people meeting each other for a business proposition in the bdsm club.
They starts to fall in love but have troubled to recognise it because their past.
But love conquers all in the end.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 15, 2020This is the second book in this series and I enjoyed it a lot. Raven and Carter, she's a submissive and he's a Dom. Both have issues in their lives that make them think they don't want a relationship with anyone but that changes when they team up for a "demo" at Restrained Fantasies, which they are both members of. Can they both get a handle on the baggage in their lives or are the going to be alone forever? There's some drama, some mystery and of course, a D/s relationship. I can't wait to see what this author will bring next!

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved it!
I loved this book. I loved the strong dom with a big heart full of loving kink, and the feisty kick ass sub, hidden behind a strong wall necessary for her survival up till that point. The wall eventually falls, because of his patience and kindness. On to this author’s next book. can’t wait for Maddox’s book!
