Crossing the Line

Odessa has been strong for as long as she can remember. When her mother died, she had to. She had to be brave for her little brothers and she had to do it with a smile on her face. She could never show weakness to anyone, but especially not to men. If you show weakness, people walk all over you. She learned this lesson the hard way.

Now Odessa is a playful submissive at a sex club, but to her, being submissive isn't about being weak. It's about wielding power in a way she knows how to. It's about being able to be brave and strong in a way she can't be when she's at work.

But strength brings with it a price, and Odessa's price is that her heart is damaged.

When a man from her past comes waltzing back into her life, she isn't sure what to do.

Is Odessa brave enough to try again?

Or is she still the scared little girl she always was?
