BOOK ONE IN THE EROTIC LESBIAN ROMANCE AWAKENING OF DESIRE SERIES.
A slow burn erotic lesbian romance featuring a dominant woman, intense power dynamics, and a forbidden attraction seventeen years in the making.
She was my sister’s piano teacher and my forbidden fantasy. Seventeen years later, I’ll do anything to call her “Mistress.”
When photographer Abby Mason accepts a last-minute job shooting product photos for an adult website, she expects an awkward afternoon and a quick paycheque. She does not expect to come face to face with Victoria Fraser, the woman who defined every fantasy she never quite grew out of.
Victoria is no longer just her sister’s mysterious piano teacher. She is the confident, controlled owner of a thriving adult brand, and Abby’s new client. What begins as a strictly professional shoot quickly becomes something far more dangerous as Victoria draws Abby into a world of carefully negotiated desire, dominance, and submission.
On set and behind closed doors, the tension between them is impossible to ignore. Victoria pushes Abby to confront what she truly wants, both in front of the camera and in the bedroom, bringing her closer to surrender with every command.
Can Abby prove herself worthy of calling Victoria “Mistress”, or will her long-held fantasies remain just out of reach?

Full Description
In this steamy slow-burn sapphic romance, professional photographer Abby Mason's world turns upside down when a last-minute job reunites her with Victoria Fraser, her former piano teacher and teenage crush. Their age gap means nothing now that they're both adults, but Victoria's involvement in the BDSM lifestyle opens Abby's eyes to possibilities she never imagined. As their chance at connection unfolds, Victoria introduces Abby to a world of dominance and submission, where trust and consent are as crucial as desire.
When Victoria makes it clear that the title of "Mistress" must be earned, Abby finds herself drawn deeper into a journey of sensual discovery. Their explicit FF encounters grow more intense as Abby explores her submissive nature under Victoria's experienced guidance. But in this sophisticated lesbian romance, nothing is simple. Victoria has exacting standards, and Abby must prove herself worthy of surrender.
Filled with passion, tension, and the delicate balance of power exchange, "May I Call You Mistress?" is an unforgettable sapphic erotica novella that delves deep into what it truly means to trust, submit, and ultimately love. Perfect for readers who enjoy their romance with a dash of dominance and a heavy helping of heart.

Chapter One Look Inside
Chapter One Look Inside
"I wouldn't ask unless I had to. You know that, don't you?" Matt dissolved into another fit of coughing, and Abby gave an involuntary shudder as the sound of mucus rattled through the phone.
"I know. I know," she repeated, grabbing an envelope from the pile of unopened bills which sat on the top of the microwave. A sticky residue caught her hand as she reached for the pen. "Oh, for fuck's sake." Still holding the pen, Abby lifted the side of her hand to her mouth and licked. Yup, it was definitely honey. That was a relief. Letting out a long sigh, she tapped out an impatient rhythm with the pen nib on the paper, waiting for Matt's coughing to subside. When it did, she wasted no time.
"Right. What's the address?"
"It's Mill Farm Road, Aberdour. Well, it's not in Aberdour. It's about five minutes outside of the village," Matt said in a thin wheeze. "I'll WhatsApp you the directions and coordinates. Just follow the road to the bend. You can't miss it."
"Mm." Like the last Glencoe shoot, she thought, but decided not to vocalise the cynicism she held towards her friend's navigational prowess, or rather lack of it. On that trip, Betty, her battered, brown Renault Clio, had to be abandoned halfway up a sheep track. Mind you, being rescued by the rather luscious Lisa, a smallholder with a throbbing quad bike, had given the day a welcome upturn.
"I've let Victoria know you'll be there by nine, ready to start."
"What you've already—"
"Abby, you're a fucking star. You know that. Right?"
Abby rolled her eyes at Matt's stock question. It'd taken a few months after they'd first met to realise it wasn't rhetorical, because frustratingly, if she didn't respond with immediate agreement, then he'd just keep asking. The balance between fondness and downright irritation with him was always in equal measure.
"Yes, Matt, I know that. Send me across the job sheet and the address and I'll get it done, but you owe me. Big time." Abby was pretty sure Matt spluttered some more thanks, but she didn't hang on the line any longer than she had to. Ill people were never really her thing.
Hanging up, she leant into her kit bag and pulled out a bottle of sanitiser. The clear blob hit her palm with a reassuring plop and she worked it over her skin, as though Matt's virus could have seeped through the phone line.
The screen lit up with directions for tomorrow. One tap later and the full spec appeared.
Client: Victoria Fraser.
Address: Tigh Na Dànachd, Mill Farm Road, Aberdour.
Details: Product shoot for website. Adult themed.
Abby's eyebrows raised. This was a little different from her bread-and-butter wedding shoot. Intrigued, she read on.
There were approximately twenty new products being added to an existing online retail business. Her fingers sped across the MacBook keyboard, typing the site address, wetforwomen.co.
Abby came face to boobs with a tanned, well-endowed pair of—yup, given the proximity and placement of their hands, it was a safe bet they were lesbians.
Running her finger over the trackpad, Abby decided the favour she was doing Matt might not be such a hardship after all. Besides, if she wasn't covering Matt's shoot, she'd be spending the day editing images of couples cooing over each other, dripping in love.
Eurgh!
The poor saps had no idea how fast it would all come tumbling down once the shine had worn off. They'd wake up one morning to the realisation that they had already peaked, leaving them warped together in a sad spiral of descent for the rest of their days. At least that was the matter-of-fact reason Katie offered for the end of their marriage. It happened over porridge one morning, with such quick efficiency, Abby's bowl was still warm when the door slammed closed for the last time. That had been eighteen months ago, and Abby still couldn't reconcile Katie's vision of bleak oblivion with her own excited anticipation for the holiday they'd booked to Disney. To this day, she still hadn't ridden the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, plus she'd never been able to face oats again.

This was quite an eye opener reading about Abby’s foray into the BDSM world. She shows up to do a product shoot for an adult toy line, filling in for her buddy which is a far cry from working as a wedding photographer. Then realizing that the co-owner is none other than your teenage crush, your sister's piano teacher. Time has been very good to Victoria Fraser. Whew! Take a hot minute and think about the possibilities! Miss Fraser, the teacher, to Victoria, the savvy business owner, to Miss Fraser, the woman you want her to be …..Mistress.
Thank you so much for this wonderful review.
I love that you captured Abby's introduction to Victoria's world so perfectly because, from Abby's perspective, it really is a case of 'well, this escalated quickly.'
What begins as a straightforward photography job suddenly becomes something far more complicated when she finds herself face to face with the woman who occupied a rather large space in her teenage imagination. And as you pointed out, time has been exceptionally kind to Victoria Fraser.
One of my favourite things about writing May I Call You Mistress? was seeing the story through Abby's eyes as she navigates a world that is entirely new to her while also trying to ignore the fact that her teenage crush has somehow become even more captivating as an adult.
Thank you for reading, for your lovely review, and for taking the time to share your thoughts. It means a great deal.

Abby, a photographer, finds herself doing a photoshoot for Victoria. The older woman who was her older sister’s piano teacher. The very one she had a crush on.Victoria now sells items to the BDSM market and Abby is there to take the marketing pictures.As time passes Abby finds herself wanting to submit to the older, dominant Victoria. This is a novella that leaves you wanting to read book 2 in the series.
Thank you so much for this lovely review.
I always smile when readers describe May I Call You Mistress? as the beginning of Abby and Victoria's story because that's exactly what it is. The first spark. The first step. The moment everything begins to change for both of them.
What I love most is that you picked up on the tension between Abby's long-standing crush and the reality of meeting Victoria again as an adult. Abby walks into what she thinks is a simple photography job and quickly discovers she's dealing with a woman who is every bit as captivating as she remembered, and perhaps far more dangerous to her heart.
And thank you for mentioning that it left you wanting to read the next book. That's always my hope with the series. Each book answers some questions while leaving readers desperate to spend a little more time with these women and discover what happens next.
Thank you for reading, for your support, and for taking the time to leave a review.

"You look like a woman that wants to take whatever I decide to give her"The immediate bond and chemistry between Victoria and Abby is off the charts, scorching hot! It's the build up and anticipation that has me coming back to read this over and over. A great way to kick start a connection that's only just begun. And the cover art is absolutely gorgeous, as well.
Thank you so much for this wonderful review.
I have to admit, you've picked one of my favourite lines.
What makes me smile most is that you mentioned the build-up and anticipation. For me, that's where the magic of Abby and Victoria's story really lives. The attraction is immediate, but it's the tension, the uncertainty, the stolen moments, and the question of what might happen next that gives their relationship its spark.
I'm delighted their chemistry worked so well for you. From the moment these two appeared on the page together, they seemed determined to set fire to every scene they shared.
And thank you for mentioning the cover. I absolutely love it too. It captures Victoria's confidence and Abby's fascination perfectly.
Thank you for reading, for returning to the story again and again, and for taking the time to leave such a lovely review.

Wow, loved every second. I love the idea of promoting healthy kink relationships.Read this if you want a good build up and an excellent finish.
Thank you so much — I really appreciate this.
I’m really glad the dynamic between them worked for you, especially that focus on healthy, consensual kink relationships. That balance is something I care a lot about getting right in these stories.
And I’m pleased you enjoyed the pacing too — I do love a slow build that really pays off at the end.
Really appreciate you taking the time to leave this.
