A Club Surrender Book With A Message!
One thing we learned in life is that you never know why someone does something especially bullies. The one being bullied can carry that hurt and humiliation for the rest of their lives. Or in this book the bully went to therapy as she got older and realized exactly what she did to innocent children and the why. Mariah sees Zelda in Club Surrender and knows she has to apologize for what she put Zelda through when they were kids. Realizing her sexuality and also that she might have been in love with Zelda then, not realizing it and causing Zelda more trouble than she deserved. Can Mariah find forgiveness from Zelda so they can move on? This was a really good storyline and how it works out was written well.
Super quick and sexy insta love story! This time it’s a more enemies to lovers where one was bullied by the other in high school. Can they move on from the past? Can you fall in love with your bully? Most people change as they grow up. I am enjoying this series, so far they are quick reads, steamy and also with a nice little plot.

I read this for the I Heart Sapphic 2025 Reading Challenge for the prompt Kink.
I love this trope. It’s book catnip but it feels like it should be longer to really get on board with how things evolved between them.
Quick Thoughts:
- There are narrative spots that are just info dumping instead of letting the reader learn/figure things out
- This has an ugly duckling turned into a swan narrative that’s fun
- The BDSM scenes were sexy as heck
- Kinda quick how they reconcile Mariah’s past bad actions
- The third act break up felt a tiny bit contrived but was still great
- Enjoyed the epilogue. It was cute and delightful
Overall this has the bones to be a delightful story, it just feels like that this was a more detailed outline of a bigger story. I enjoyed it though and will pick up more of this series. It’s great for scratching a trope itch quickly.

A book to entice your inner desires
I absolutely loved it. This book had everything to do with my experience in high school. I got bullied and it was all because she did it and got away with it. I loved reading how Zelda and Mariah had the same feelings toward each other. It's a HEA and I loved it. I have never had the nerve to do BDSM but I think I would like to try one day. 😉😉. My fantasy is to own a house on the ⛱️ also. ME? Well I did see her again. She was also my crush, my friends picked me up at the airport, I was in my Army uniform. I looked up and she had tears running down her face. Oh Reba thank you 😊 for writing a book that brought sweet memories back to my heart. I love all of your books. Im a true fan. Love the short ones!! 🥰🥰❤️❤️

A quick read. Forgiveness can lead to road of opportunities of finding the one. Human emotions can be tricky especially as a child figuring out who you are. Forgiving someone that might be the one for you can lead to your HEA.
