Becoming: An LA Lovers Book Kindle Edition

4.7 out of 5 stars 571 ratings

A scorching HOT lesbian romance!

Can a Dominant allow herself to be dominated? Can a woman who defies authority allow herself to submit? Will love come out on top in the end?

You met Rebecca and Cass in Fifty Shades of Pink. Now get Rebecca's perspective of their first meeting and see her journey to BECOMING Mistress.

Rebecca Cuinn lost control of her life once before, and she spent many years learning how to take it back. As Mistress and owner of an exclusive BDSM club, Rebecca now had control by the balls. She wasn’t about to lose it again by falling in love. Unfortunately, her heart wasn’t playing by Rebecca’s rules. She always was a sucker for androgynous, sexy women. But did the one that threatened to make her break all her rules have to be so young?

Cass Giles defied authority. So, when she was dragged to a BDSM sex club for a bachelorette party, she refused to let go of her judgments and have fun. No way she would submit to someone whose sole purpose was to hurt you. Just wasn’t her scene. That is until that “scene” included the mysterious Mistress. Now Cass was willingly breaking the rules just for a taste of Mistress’s punishment. But it wasn’t just Mistress she wanted. She wanted the woman underneath the mask. And she would do everything she could to prove they were meant to be.

*Intended for 18+ audience due to mature content.

*This book contains scenes that may be a trigger to some people.*This book is merely an interpretation of a small part of the BDSM world. It is not intended to be an instructional "how to" book. Nor does it claim to be EVERYONE'S interpretation of the lifestyle.

Review

This is not your average love story, but I still found it to be a really sweet one. The characters have interesting storylines that engrossed me from the start. Ms. Kelly has a way with words that manages to bring out my emotions every time. If you love the LA Lovers series, Becoming does not disappoint!Lisa Holt You're going to run out of balls if you keep knocking them out of the park. And this one was gone from the crack of the bat. Loved the book. Well-written, and a good story.
Jim McLaurin

This was an amazing follow up to Fifty Shades of Pink. In typical Jourdyn Kelly fashion, seeing the story from a new point of view was everything I hoped it would be and made me love the characters even more.

From the Author

There were parts of this book that were particularly difficult to write. I realize that some of the content may be a trigger to some people, and I apologize for that. The thing about writing is it isn't always pretty. But it is cathartic. While a writer may not have the same experiences as their characters, there's usually something there that needs to get out.I originally wrote Fifty Shades of Pink (the book we first met Rebecca and Cass in) on a dare. It was supposed to be a tongue-in-cheek short story. But I fell in love with the characters. I knew at some point Rebecca's story needed to be told. I hope that by the time you finish the book, you'll be smiling.

    Some graphic aspects of abuse early on, in a controlling and manipulative (and totally not a real consensual BDSM) relationship but story develops more on the surviving, healing, ultimately thriving of one MC. Couldn't remember if there was a warning for it, so there you have it. The healing cycles throughout, with honest communication once the age gap lovers connect and explore healthy BDSM, power exchange, and intimacy. Sexy and fun without dodging tough issues. Some very nice phrasing that made for lots of laughing and a good pace. My first Jourdyn Kelly book, but intrigued about more.

    What an exceptional age gap love story. The story is Rebecca's and before Cass and after they meet. Intertwined are what's going on in her friends lives through conversations. Who we've met throughout the LA Lovers series. Including the Eve Sumpter series. This is so HOT!!! There are tough subjects in this story. A favorite! Worthy of more than 5 stars!

    This book, actually, this series, has that elusive and magical balance of great plot, well developed characters, and “great feels.” It’s a fantastic series, but Rebecca and Cass’ story was my favorite of the series.

    I found this author through the Mrs. Middleton crossover, and I’m really glad I did.

    Man- that line between BDSM and abuse can be pulled into question... but this book? Makes it blaring my obvious that this is NOT safe, sane, consensual in any regard with the first drugged out mistress. Once she's out of the picture, the sub switched to a Domme and finds her stride. Like anything though, maybe she wore out the leather of her flogger sooner than she had expected. Enter in our second MC and we get to swoon all over again as she throws the Domme off balance to find her knees again. Loved the dichotomy. The age gap. The BDSM.

    I'm gonna start with this book had a lot of triggers. For an abuse survivor it was hard to read at times. But even with the hard stuff it is a great book. So great I bought it on Audible and listened to it also. The chemistry between Rebecca and Cassidy is so hot! The love and protection they have for one another is beautiful. Like I said another great book by Jourdyn, you won't be disappointed.

    First , I’d like to say there were no dislike for this story. I like to be grabbed from the first paragraph and I must say I wasn’t disappointed. This book and characters drew me in and I felt all the emotions. I was made to think about my reactions to some scenarios. I fell in love with Becca and Cass so much so that I wanted to physically fight for them and their love. I was also blown away by Rebecca’s circle and I want Aunt Wills to be my Aunt. This book is an inspiration for so many people for many different reasons. I’d recommend it to anyone feeling worthless or distraught from an overbearing abusive relationship or someone that needs to know that no matter how far you are down you have the strength to get back up and strive. Great writing!!

    This story was so hot and yet so beautiful. I love Rebecca and Cassidy! Each of them has their own strengths and weaknesses. I loved the story’s beginning being told from Rebecca’s eyes and as her and Cassidy’s relationship blossomed. You felt the hurt in Cassidy when her best friend manipulates her and you feel the anger in Rebecca when she realizes all that is going on. Their connection, the love that they feel that is so deep comes through. With both of their ups and downs, they learn to rely on one another. This series just keeps getting better. On to the next book!

    This is the first book by this author I’ve read and it won’t be the last. Very likable characters. The only drawback I could see was that Cass was a little immature at times but I liked the way when one needed shoring up the other one was there.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A great surprise
    Reviewed in France on February 27, 2020
    I thought that book was just Rebecca's point of view of the same story, as Fifty shades of pink was Cass's point of view.
    But this book is so much more!
    In the beginning, you feel that you're reading the same story but quickly it becomes a full story by it's own. I love how the author explain the feelings of each character and how she handles the past of Rebecca.
    If you want to read both books, please begin with Fifty shades of pink and then Becoming.
