Publisher's summary

Book 3 in the Nature of Desire series.

They call her the Ice Queen. At the exclusive BDSM club known as "The Zone," Mistress Marguerite is a legend. Tyler Winterman has been fascinated with her since he's known her, though the rules of their world say they shouldn't share more than mutual admiration. He is her male counterpart, one of the most powerful male doms practicing at The Zone.

Due to a computer error, Marguerite lacks the mentoring program stipulation required of all Zone doms, which includes spending a number of hours learning about BDSM from the submissive's perspective. Tyler considers it an act of fate that Marguerite chooses him to be the dom who helps her fulfill that requirement. He is convinced she is a "switch", a closet submissive, but the truth will be even more remarkable than the theory, changing their lives in ways neither of them anticipates.

Having no equal except one another in their skills at stripping a sub's defenses bare, these two dominants will turn their considerable talents on each other and discover that who is master and who is slave doesn't matter, not when two souls have found their mate.

Editorial reviews

With her confident delivery and measured pacing, narrator Maxine Mitchell sets the pace for this sensual story of power and submission. A computer error means that Mistress Marguerite, the fabled Ice Queen dom at the exclusive BDSM club known as the Zone needs to take the club's mentoring program. Marguerite must submit herself to fellow dom, Tyler Winterman and spend a number of hours learning about BDSM from a submissive's perspective. When Tyler is chosen to be Marguerite's dom, he is convinced that she is a "switch", a closet submissive, and he plans to prove it to her. Listeners will find the smoldering intensity of the pair's scenes together an erotic delight.

Joey W Hill and Maxine Mitchell=A Winning Combination

Wow...just wow. I've been a fan of Joey W. Hill's books and this series is one of my favorites. Mistress Marguerite and Master Tyler are two of the most engaging characters. So much breadth and depth. Joey not only writes greats characters but also superb storylines. Maxine Mitchell is an outstanding narrator. She has strength and grace and she lends a lot of credibility to the series.

Spellbinding!!

This is one of the best BDSM books I've ever listened to. It has so much of the emotional interaction between Dom and Sub. The importance of the attitudes of caring and protection for the Sub. Whether you are actually into this lifestyle or just on the fringes in your imagination in the books. This caring and protective attitude is stressed in all of the books I've read. It also delves into the emotional brokenness that might cause somebody to seek out this lifestyle. I think it stimulates introspection into a person's own life and the questions ask of the characters are also asked of the reader. "Everyone is seeking a connection with another." This quote is the longing of the human heart no matter the lifestyle. The human heart need connection.

Love the Book! But the narrator drives me crazy :(

Would you try another book from Joey W. Hill and/or Maxine Mitchell?

I have read all of Joey's books and they are all amazing. Her ability to create deeply emotional characters and pair them with intense BDSM scenes is beautiful and unique every time.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Ice Queen?

For me it is the whole last chapter, but I don't want to give any spoilers.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Maxine Mitchell?

I like the other person who reads for Joey's Knight's of the boardroom series G. C. VonCloudts.

Was Ice Queen worth the listening time?

Yes

I just can’t.

I have accepted it as a personal challenge to finish this book but I just can’t do it. The basic premise is, if not a lie than it is completely disingenuous. The basic idea is that the Tyler is trying to show M that they were meant to be together. That, regardless of her status as a Domme, he was her Master. The truth is that he selfishly attacks her limits ( intense sensory deprecation under water in a first time D/s experience with a woman that he knows is emotionally damaged…really!?). He has decided he will “have her” and uses emotional/sensual “enhanced interrogation” to get what he wants. He is a sexual terrorist determined to gain her capitulation, frustrated by her healthy denial him, he hamhandedly “treats” her emotional damage by making her his “slave,” his sole aim to prove his dominance via vaginal penetration. I am a lifelong D/s practitioner and otherwise love much of JWH’s work. Can’t do this one.

Did not like the narrator

What would have made Ice Queen better?

A different narrator.

What didn’t you like about Maxine Mitchell’s performance?

She read way to slow for my taste.

Any additional comments?

I also read this one as an e-book, better then the audiobook but I will probably not read the next book.
