"The last episode in the wonder Wonderland Series"

Awai Steele knows that they will be coming soon. Three years ago she lost her first niece, Alice. She just disappeared into thin air. Then the next year Alexi disappeared as well. Last year she lost Annie as well. So Awai sold her business and put all of her furniture into storage. She wrote a will leaving everything to a charity if she doesn't return within a certain amount of time. Now all she has to do is wait.

All the Kings on Tarok have found a bride except for Ty. It is finally time for Ty to claim his bride. He has watched the happiness that each of his brothers have discovered. After seeing the card of his future queen, Ty fell in love at first sight. Ty, having the same arrogance that his brothers, had thought that it was going to be easy to tame his bride and get her to submit to all his wishes.

Awai had barely survived an abusive first marriage. She had learned to take control of her life and no man was going to tell her what to do again. She was a successful businesswoman but in the evening she enjoyed the role of dominatrix. She enjoyed have the control. Although she did have a secret fantasy of someday trusting someone enough to let down her guard.

Awai has trouble believe that this gorgeous hunk wants her to be his bride. Somehow she feels that she can trust him at least about seeing her nieces and they are content with their life. It was hard to believe that they all children, or cubs, as Ty claimed. Ty works hard to win Awai trust. But can he get what he needs to make her his queen?

KING OF CLUBS is the end of another great series by Ms. McCray. Awai has to deal with an abusive past as well as the loss of her nieces. It takes a man with gentleness to get her to submit. This is a great story if you are fans of BDSM. I hope that there is going to be a story about Mikaela. She should have a happier ever after like the rest. You need to read all four in this series. As usual, Ms. McCray has written a spellbinding tale that will have the reader eagerly wanting more.

Summary

Long ago when she was fresh out of high school and too young to know better, Awai Steele married a brutal man. Once she escaped him she created a new life for herself, vowing never to be dominated by any man. Now she runs a successful corporation and is known in business circles as a ball-buster, the woman with brass ovaries. And in her secret life as a Dominatrix, she's known as Mistress.

But when Ty, King of Clubs, spirits Awai away to a magical world, the sexy muscle-bound rogue of a man literally has her tied in knots. Awai finds that being the King's submissive definitely has its advantages, but she doesn't think she can let go of her past long enough to embrace a future with a Dominant man.

King Ty is determined to show Awai that she belongs with him, and he will do whatever it takes to make her his Queen of Clubs.
