I love this Book the most of the series. This story is touchy.Me encanta esta historia más que las otras se siente más profundamente

Pretty good. 2 people with issues that need to work through them alone an together I order to get a happily ever after.

I loved that Bonnie and Dex already knew each other and had a play agreement but this is them letting finding more beyond that. They both were very stubborn and it lead to miscommunications. I thought they had explosive chemistry together and were both exactly what the other needed. I enjoyed reading about them.

Great characters and development, well written detailed scenes, beautiful insight into D/s dynamic and relationships. Cannot wait for the next book!!!

Dex cares for Bonnie but knows she needs a Dom who is in it for the long haul, which he never can be. Bonnie is just getting over the death of her previous master. She yearns for Dex but...will either of them realize what they could be together?

Dex and Bonnie find the love they both desperately seek. Jim wanted Bonnie to have the Don she need. So before his death he approached Dex. The battle to happiness is froth with battles, but in the end they both get what they want.

This book was hot with a good story and chemistry right off the bat. Could they work on their communication better....yes but it all ends with a HEA! I'm a fan and just downloaded book 1 in this series!

I downloaded this book as a freebie and it's been on my Kindle for a few days. I was not intending to read it now, but I accidentally opened the book when adding it to a collection, read the first page, and was immediately drawn in by Bonnie.I have a long list of ARC reviews due soon, but I got sucked in so quickly that I abandoned the ARC I'm currently reading and devoured Bonnie and Dex's story. That's how good E.M. Gayle is at drawing you in. I was rooting for Bonnie in two pages. I finished the book I'm one sitting and don't regret it one bit. Hold Me Close is my first E.M. Gayle read, but it most definitely will not be my last.This novella is steamy as hell, but Gayle manages to pack so much heart into the short story, too. For a BDSM read heavy on the conflicted pasts it manages to be light enough to be a quick read but substantial enough to get you invested in the world (assuming you're jumping into book 6 of a series of interconnected standalones like me and you aren't already invested, that is).This is a 4 star read for me rather than 5 because it is a tad more rushed than necessary. It keeps things lighter and totally works for the story, but it keeps it from being quite next level. The writing is solid and easy to connect with, but also just a touch below awesome. However, I still highly recommend.

Very well written. You will hang on every word and long for more. The connection between Dex and Bonnie is a strong sexual and loving Dom and Sub relationship. The desire they have for each other is off the charts. Beautiful storyline.

A great BDSM story from the Purgatory series filled with grief, guilt, turmoil, hot scenes, and a HEA.I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.

Dee is a bad ass Dom with the attitude to match. Bonnie is the meek sub that has lost her Dom and sees Dex once a month to try and get better. Everyone sees that they are perfect together but it takes extreme measures to open their eyes. Will Bonnie Sub finally win Dex over or will Dex break her heart?

Loved this book really enjoyed it

Dex becomes a temporary Dom for Bonnie when her Dom dies and there's the stipulation of no sex. The stipulation soon goes out the window and they have a scene that's followed by mind-blowing sex. Dex is afraid to be a permanent Dom for Bonnie due to his past and Bonnie wants more than just temporary. This is a hot book-enjoy!!!!!

This a great story two people that belongs together but pasts stand in the way. Dex is a dominant at a club and Bonnie has lost her master and feel guilty about her wanting Dex, she is a sweet plus size woman and Dex is a harden tattoo artist and thinks he is to rough for her when they have a scene at the Club because of his father was bully on women. Dex so learns that love fits in all sizes and scenes, when Bonnie and Dex is together it is so hot, I am fanning my self on how hot it is, LOVED the ending and will be recommend this book to all romance readers!💗

Enjoyed reading this one.
