Why we’re excited
Weston Scott, the wildest of the co-owners of a Paris club called Legacy, wants to show a former lover that he can be a good submissive during an eight-week showcase. Geo Blackwell, older and more patient, agrees to act as his fake Dom. Weston turns out to be anything but obedient.
Sara Cate built her following with the Salacious Players' Club books, including Praise. This is book four of the Salacious Legacy spin-off and her MM entry in it. Earlier books introduce the club and its owners, so starting with book one makes sense, though the romance itself is self-contained.

From the publisher
He’s too wild to be tamed…until the right man makes him kneel.
Weston Scott could use a little discipline. As the wildest co-owner of Legacy, he spends his nights tending bar and his even later nights losing himself in the hedonistic streets of Paris. But when Legacy announces an eight-week BDSM Showcase, Weston sees his chance to prove to an old flame that he has what it takes to be the perfect submissive. What he lacks is a Dom patient enough to guide him.
Geo Blackwell has seen it all. Older and arguably wiser, he’s spent the last few years helping to keep Weston in line—so it makes sense for him to step in to be Weston’s fake Dom for the showcase, if only to keep him out of trouble.
The arrangement should be simple. But when Weston proves to be less than obedient, Geo finds himself enjoying the challenge far more than he ever dreamed. Week after week, as performances deepen, lines blur, and attraction burns into something far more dangerous, Geo and Weston are caught dancing around the most important question of all:
When all is said and done, will this Dom be able to transform a brat into what they both truly want him to be—his?
