The bittersweet tale of Bear and his Boy -- a BDSM Dom and his fledgling Sub -- who live “the life” in west central New Jersey, just north of Trenton. Donald K. Drummond is the Master of all he surveys -- a legend in commercial real estate in New Jersey by day and by night a Master Dom at the gay BDSM club, Indiscreet. What he couldn't find was a boy to call his own. That all changed when a nerd with taped glasses and worn Dockers barged into his office spilling his bottle of 1985 Bourdeau over his priceless Persian carpet. Brian Murphy came with a host of troubles, the least of which was his grasping aunt, his invalid mother, and his rather tenuous position in Donald's mail room. Can a Dom with issues of his own come to train and trust a needy boy from his own mailroom? It's all A Matter of Trust.

A Matter of Trust

“How late are the stores open this evening?”


Bear grit his teeth. He knew she was deliberately baiting him, but this time he was not going to bite. “The good clothing stores at the mall. I know I can’t get to Brooks Brothers now, but are Macy’s and Nordstrom open?”


“Quakerbridge Mall is open until at least eleven thirty. It is Back—”


“To School,” Bear finished her sentence. “Reed told me last night.”


“Now, what do you need at the mall? I will send Pop or Joseph. Just make sure you get the sizes right. I’ll call the Personal Shopper you use occasionally, and we will fix him right up.”


“Mama, I seriously think you sometimes read minds. How did you know I wanted clothing for Brian?”
