It began as research. Just research. The technical approach. One that delivers the content necessary for a hidden culture to seem plausible, even if it’s not. Readers expect perfection from me. They need to be taken on a journey. That’s my job as a writer. Trouble is, I know nothing about my new subject matter - kink.
Blaine Jacobs is his name. He’s my research. A man who seems as logical and focused as me. A man who agrees to help. A man who, regardless of his stature in the community, seems to offer a sense of realism to this strange section of society.
And even if he does occasionally interrupt my data with dark brooding eyes and a questionably filthy mouth, what does it matter? It’s just research, isn’t it? It’s not real. None of this is. Nothing will come of it or change my mind.
So why am I confused?
I’m becoming lost.
Falling apart.
And Blaine Jacobs, no matter how calm he might have seemed at first, now appears to linger on the edges of sanity, pushing my boundaries with every whispered word.

Review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"This is not just your average dark and dirty BDSM romance. It totally screws with your mind, so you have been warned!
I was left reeling after finishing this book. Charlotte has written a book that is so twisted and psychologically mind-bending that you just don't know if it's ethically wrong or right to love or hate her characters... Totally addictive reading."

"Charlotte's writing has drawn me in and will NOT let go! She fills each character with such amazing characteristics that you love, hate, and want to emulate. Honestly, if you love BDSM .. If you love all that is dark and devastating, I urge you ... PICK THIS UP and enjoy the depraved, twisted love that is Blaine Jacobs. It will leave to panting, perhaps horrifyingly so since to never in your life thought you might like it, but to won't be able to wait ..."

"Finally !!! A story to feed the deviant inside me that is always wanting darker and dirtier. And, quite frankly, Charlotte has hit the nail on the head with 'Once Upon A'. I have been left begging and it's not fair ! It was everything a great book should be and do much more. This is an addictive must read that everyone should one click right away .."
