Top Priority (The Game Series Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.4 out of 5 stars 3,426 ratings

The Game Series #1

In a perfect world, Lucas West would meet someone in one of the BDSM communities he was active in, someone who ached for a Daddy Dom as much as Lucas longed for a Little to care for. They would date, play, build something that was just for them, and share a future together.

In a perfect world, Colt Carter would get through his next deployment and then move closer to DC where he could create at least a semblance of a personal life. He wanted something outside of the Air Force, something kinky, something worth leaving everything behind for eventually. For years, he’d kept his inner Sadist and Daddy Dom locked up, only letting him out to play on rare occasions.

In a perfect world…

In reality, Lucas and Colt met each other.

The Game Series is a BDSM series where romance meets the reality of kink. Sometimes we fall for someone we don’t match with, sometimes vanilla business gets in the way of kinky pleasure, and sometimes we have to compromise and push ourselves to overcome trauma and insecurities. No matter what, one thing is certain. This is not a perfect world—and maybe that’s why the happily ever after feels so good.

Romance Across the Spectrum.

I’m often awkwardly silent or, if the topic interests me, a chronic rambler. In other words, I can discuss writing forever and ever. Fiction, in particular. The love story—while a huge draw and constantly present—is secondary for me, because there’s so much more to writing romance fiction than just making two (or more) people fall in love and have hot sex.

There’s a world to build, characters to develop, interests to create, and a topic or two to research thoroughly.

Every book is a challenge for me, an opportunity to learn something new, and a puzzle to piece together. I want my characters to come to life, and the only way I know to do that is to give them substance—passions, history, goals, quirks, and strong opinions—and to let them evolve.

I want my men and women to be relatable. That means allowing room for everyday problems and, for lack of a better word, flaws. My characters will never be perfect.

Wait…this was supposed to be about me, not my writing.

I'm a writey person who loves to write. Always wanderlusting, twitterpating, kinking, cooking, baking, and geeking. There’s time for hockey and family, too. But mostly, I just love to write.

~Cara.

    Top Priority is series starter in The Game. HFN/HEA. MM Contemporary Romance. Kink, BDSM, Dom/Daddy framework. Short reads. Insta-Attraction. Can be read as a standalone, but the main characters' story continues on in the next series title. No angst really.

    1POV, 1st person, past tense. This kindle edition 112 pages, 27th August 2019.

    I chanced on this accidentally because of a cover that I liked ;)
    Cover mad readers Inc, that's me, lol. Many times BDSM titles can turn out disappointments, like the last one I read, which makes you kind of wary of them, you know? And I was wary again, too, but a cover from this series I liked made me grab the freebie series starter anyway when I saw it was as a freebie. I had zero expectations of really enjoying, but I took the chance. But - OMG - I wasn't at all disappointed! I liked it. A lot. I found it was really to my taste and I loved it. There's nothing better than being so positively surpised!

    This is not really one of those heavily into BDSM books, but it's not devoid of Hot Stuff. It's just not the primary content and it's not very BDSM either. It's primarily a good, well-written story. It's not long, but neither is it too short. It just isn't too long. It's the perfect length. I'd not take anything out nor add anyting, and I didn't do any scrolling of any kind of boring paragraphs or pages etc.

    It's not just hot and heavy, it's a good story with or without the hot stuff. This is what I like to read: a good story. I finished this and started the next in the series without even giving it pause or a thought. That shows it was that good :) "Well done!" to the author. Recommended.

    Lucas is caught in a storm driving back to his home in DC from the south. His car is damaged so he limps into the nearest town where the garage says it will take a day or so to fix. He stumbles, literally, into a nearby bar to get something to eat. A potentially disastrous with some locals is averted by the timely intercession by Colt, an air force pilot also stuck in town for the night. The two quite quickly realize they’re men of similar tastes; daddy doms who like a bit discipline, so there doesn’t seem to be much point in them developing a relationship. After all, what can two top doms get up to without a sub? Well, quite a lot actually, it seems.

    “Top Priority” is a rather steamy short novella. There’s definitely an air of “made for each other” to the story line, but the writing avoids the clichés that kind of plot usually entails. The feelings Lucas and Colt have seem quite genuine and believable.

    The two main characters are both very believable. Experienced combat pilot Colt, in particular, rings true, at least to someone without intimate knowledge of how it feels to be on deployment in Iraq, or be close to someone who is. Lucas is less of a charismatic character, but still very realistically drawn.

    Somewhat curiously, although the main point of the story is to get Lucas and Colt into a relationship, despite significant odds against them, this book is something of a prequel. According to the blurbs, in the next book of the series, the two top doms finally find a sub to play with.

    Loved it. Few books can tell as good of a story in as few pages without feeling rushed and build a world and a bunch of interesting characters in one go.
    I'm saddened that this got buried under all the more mediocre literature I've read during the two years I've owned this title.
    But better late than never! If you are at all into this kind of thing, don't hesitate to grab this!

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 1, 2023
    The best thing about good stories this length are there's no unnecessary drama. A little bit of groundwork then straight into the good stuff. A short but sweet story of a one night stand that never really ended.

    It was such an easy story to read, I couldn't put it down. I'll definitely be looking into this author again.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing short story!
    Reviewed in Canada on October 19, 2023
    I’ve had this book on my TBR for quite a while but never got around to reading it. Im sick and having a hard time concentrating so decided to read all my shorter books. I’m really glad I was finally able to read this. It was an amazing novella. Even though it was short I didn’t feel like their relationship was rushed or forced. It felt like a very natural progression.

    This is a single POV story told by Lucas. Colt was very easy to read so I didn’t feel like anything was missing from that. I really enjoyed their dynamic and that they got together even though they weren’t quite compatible. I loved too that even though it’s short we got a future epilogue to see that they did stay together. I’m looking forward to reading book 2 when they find their boy!
