Synopsis

Tired of dipping in and out of other couples’ love lives, at almost forty Jenson Delaney is ready to meet a submissive he can call his own.

Mitchell Wellington left an abusive ex in the rear view, but the mental scars linger. Moving on isn’t so easy when every thought is plagued with doubt. Chicago is a fresh start, but he has to find himself first.

An accident lands Mitchell in Jenson’s sights, and he can’t ignore his instincts to care for the young man.

There’s power in submission, and Jenson wants to take the spark he sees in Mitchell and make it burn bright.

In unfamiliar territory, both men must learn how to trust—in each other and in themselves. It’s the only way they’ll overcome the shadow of Mitchell’s past.

Jenson is Book 1 in the new Silver Screen Dom series. This story features an age gap romance, a shy but mouthy brat coming into his own, and a HEA.

A good start to this series

Jenson is the first book I’ve read by Meg Harding and I liked it a lot. I found the story to be interesting and it really held my attention all the way through. Mitchell, 24, was abused by his boyfriend so he ran away. Jenson, nearly 40, thought he would never find the right boy for him and then he meets Mitchell.

Elements of this story were what I expected – a confrontation with Mitchell’s ex – but how and when it happened kept me a bit on the edge of my seat which also means I kind of didn’t want to put it down.

There were a lot of emotions involved in this story. Mitchell has a lot of things to overcome after the abusive treatment he got at his ex’s hands. Jenson is willing to take the time needed to help Mitchell heal. He doesn’t do anything to try and force a relationship on Mitchell. As BDSM stories go this one was pretty mild with just a bit of edging, daddy/boy dynamic and very light punishment.

There was an interesting cast of secondary characters introduced in this story and I would like to read more books in this series.
