She needed a fresh start…

ICU Nurse Sadie Montgomery moved to New Orleans after her entire world fell apart. The idea was borne of desperation as she sank deeper into a depression so deep and dark, she had stopped feeling. But it wasn’t until she crossed paths with Ram that she finally felt a spark of life return. The only problem is, she doesn’t want to be dependent upon anyone. The pain of losing it all is still too fresh. Not to mention, in Ram’s world, the women submit themselves body and soul.

He wasn’t looking for love…

Former Army Ranger, Ramsey O’Malley, is not looking for a long-term commitment from a woman beyond a scene or two at Club Underworld. He doesn’t have the time nor the inclination to begin something he cannot finish, not as a single dad with a thriving psychology practice. Except, he is drawn to his newest patient. She’s forbidden, like the apple in the garden of Eden, and all he wants to do it take a bite.

But they could not deny their desire…

When Sadie makes a surprise appearance at Club Underworld looking to take a walk on the wild side, Ram knows he cannot let another man have her. He wants to be the one to introduce her to submission. But can he convince her to submit? And will just one night be enough?

Publisher’s Note: This steamy contemporary romance contains elements of power exchange.

This is a second chance romance for Ram and Sadie. Sadie is leaving so much pain. She's just lost her parents and her husband and as the lone survivor she's losing the will to move on. She pulls a map out and finds a different place to move from the memories of her life. She meets Ram who is her counselor. Ram finds that he is very attracted to Sadie but he lives a different kind of live style than she does. When he finds her at his club that seems to be the clue Ram the Dom decides that Sadie will be his submissive. Ram introduces Sadie to her submissive side and they find out that they have lots of things going for them. Really great story. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Sadie's life was turned up side down when she was the lone survivor of a crash that took her parents and husband. Moving away to a new city was her way of starting over again but when an incident in ICU triggered a PTSD episode she was sent again to therapy which sent her on a healing journey that she never would have imagined. Ram has had his own problems and taking Sadie in as a favor should have been simple until he met her and her mannerism pulled at the DOM in him. This story will draw you in and have you cheering Sadie on to get a fresh start with a happily ever after.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of her best
Reviewed in the United States on October 4, 2019

There’s nothing better than an erotic romance that gives you depth in its characters and in its plot, and Summers delivers that masterfully in Lone Survivor. Sadie and Ram both have major issues to address from their past and present if they’re ever going to come together for the long term, and Summers gives a logical and gradual evolution to their relationship that makes you believe in them as a couple.

I loved that both of them were flawed, with challenges that weren’t solved through one conversation. But I particularly liked that each was the source of their own salvation—they had to grow in confidence and comfort in themselves to become the person they needed to be for one another. Add to it a nice number of highly sensual scenes, and you have a great read.

There are a few drawbacks in Lone Survivor. Ram and Sadie experience a fair degree of insta-lust, and Ram in particular takes some actions that go against the ethics of his job. While those are immediately acknowledged, it would have been even better to hold off any activity between Ram and Sadie until he’d addressed that. For an emotionally mature book, Summers sometimes used juvenile terms for human anatomy (Doodle? Pecker? Really?). These could easily be replaced with more adult terminology. And I really had to wonder if a BDSM club would fall under a category for Yelp reviews.

But these are relatively minor issues in a really excellent book. Summers has created one of her best in Lone Survivor. Let’s hope the rest of this new Crescent City Kings series equals the quality of this book!

I have been an Anya Summers fan from the first book that I read. I thought her Cuffs and Spurs series was so good, nothing would be able to top it. I am happy to say, I was wrong. This new series just takes it to the next level and is phenomenal. Her books are hot, her characters are well developed and have so many layers... I can't say enough about how wonderful her books are.

This story was beautifully written. It made you smile, gasp and cry. The loss of three loved ones in a matter of seconds, Sadie was the only survivor. Suffering from PTSD made her a lost broken soul. Dr. Ram O'Malley also suffered from PTSD, but he didn't realize how it effected his personal life. But fate took over and conquered their fears. A must read.

3.0 out of 5 stars Could use serious editing
Reviewed in the United States on September 14, 2020

This book about a nurse with ptsd and her psychiatrist isn’t terrible but it has some serious need of basic editing plus some deeper editing on the storyline. Otherwise it was basically an enjoyable book. The kink scenes were good but the secret bdsm club I found kind of horrifying and sexist. Women can basically be called dibs on plus they have to agree to be punished by a DM?! No way, treat people like adults and if they want punishment they can negotiate their own scene. I also am really not a fan of the D/s power dynamic outside of the bedroom plus I hate the word babe so those were the personal things I didn’t like. I thought she did a good job of describing the fostering process but a terrible job about describing the boundaries between therapist and patient. There is no way a therapist would babysit for her client at least not a good one!! Anyways a fine book but I wish this author had a much better editor.

Great read! Very hot hot stuff! Ram is so hot in so many ways, but does screw up a great deal. Sadie is sweets day strong. I love her journey to figure out what she needs then goes and gets it. I love how this book showed how giving in to your submission can make you stronger. I use to think that wasn’t really true but this book showed that journey.

I would have given 5 but the miscommunication drama got on my nerves at time. First book by this author won’t be the last!

Definitely a good storyline and book length to make this a worthwhile read. Sadie is trying to pull her life together and heal after losing her family two years ago. She meets a hottie therapist and is introduced to the BDSM lifestyle. Master Ram is her perfect match, but they just need to get past some issues to solidify their relationship. Highly recommend this book.
