Making the Cut is the story of a hairdresser named Lauren Jenkins and a rugby player named Nick Thompson. If this were a traditional romance, you'd expect him to be the charmer, coming in to sweep her off her feet, but there's nothing traditional about this. Lauren is a strong, confident woman who enjoys dominating men, bending them to her will . . . and Nick has no idea what he's in for!
JD Votion does a lovely job of bridging the experience gap, providing fans with wonderful depictions of BDSM equipment and scene playing, while also holding the hand of novices like Nick, easing them into the world of the erotic power exchange. There's a lovely awkwardness and hesitation to their dynamic, a professional relationship that evolves into erotic exploration, only to discover a foundation of romance beneath it all.
The bondage and domination elements are fun, but it's the character personalities that make this such a great read. It's so easy to get invested in their relationship, and we care enough that the little moments of tension between them make us worry about how things will develop. The dialogue between them sparkles, and when you're trying to build heat while explaining the intricacies of domination, that communication is essential to Making the Cut working as well as it does.
