⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️! Cameron’s Control, book 1 of 2. Larger-than-life Dr. Cameron Cole’s life is turned upside down when he finds himself fallen into whipped!
“You can’t tame her, Cam. You know that, right?” he whispered.
“It’s fun trying.”
“She’s so infuriating.”
Richard followed my line of sight. “Which means she’s perfect for you.”
Books in the Enthrall Sessions series should be read in order:
Book 1: Enthrall
Book 2: Enthrall Her
Book 3: Enthrall Him
OR Book 1-3: Enthrall Sessions Trilogy
Book 4: Cameron’s Control
Book 5: Cameron’s Contract
Book 8: Enthrall Climax
The Enthrall Sessions Trilogy is Mia Lauren’s journey of erotic sexual awakening and exploration while caught between the two demi-god of men Dr. Cameron Raife Cole and his friend Richard Booth Sheppard. It was a whirlwind romance spanning the globe with friendships tested, hearts broken and lines crossed set against the backdrop of SoCal’s ritzy BDSM club scene.
Cameron’s Control (book 1) can also be viewed as an epilogue to the trilogy. This is Dr. Cameron Raife Cole’s HEA that he will have after finally permitting his heart to melt and give love a chance. A larger than-life-man who in all his life never bent for anyone will find himself rearranging
Seven words to describe Dr. Cameron Raife Cole: Kinky, intense, enigmatic, aloof, in-control, complex, manipulative and commanding.
Cameron’s Control told from Cameron’s POV, is a rare glimpse into an enigma that is Dr. Cameron Cole. He stole my heart in trilogy and finally getting into his mind and heart was priceless! Up next is book 2, Cameron’s Contract with the conclusion to his epic love saga.
“If it were possible to die from an aching cock, I was close. My balls were tight and full, my chest was heavy with need, and my entire body tingled.”

Rejoice fans of the Enthrall Series!
Dr. Cameron Cole is back in all of his dark, sexy, broody billionaire glory...
Friendly advice: don't start the Enthrall Novellas if you didn't read the three Enthrall Sessions Novels (beginning with Enthrall) Those books tell the complicated and wonderfully kinky backstory which led to Cameron and Mia's current relationship status.
This book overlaps just slightly with Enthrall Him, and tells Cameron's story of discovering Mia on that California beach on New Years Eve - all the angst washing away in the surf, leaving behind new love in its wake.
This is the start of their happily ever after.
Dr. Cameron Cole
He's absurdly smart, a gifted psychologist, and philanthropist. He's classy and sophisticated in a way that can only be achieved from a lifetime of living in luxury.
Consider this - When I started the first novel in the series, Enthrall, I had an extreme dislike (maybe even a little hatred) of Cameron's character. Three novels of brilliant character development later and Dr. Cole sits proudly on my list of top book boyfriends.
He is one seriously swoony bastard.
He lords his sexuality over the masses, revels in his bachelorhood.
He owns the most affluent and secretive BDSM Club in America.
He's a world renowned Dom, trusted with training countless submissives.
He thought he'd play matchmaker - he found and trained the perfect woman to compliment his best friend, but he never expected to fall for her too.
And when Cameron Cole falls,
He falls HARD.
Mia Lauren
I had forgotten just how young she is... A fresh-faced naïve twenty-one years old. I don't usually connect with the virginal archetypes. They tend to be trope-y and frustrating, especially when an author thrusts one into a D/s dynamic...
Luckily (for the reader) Mia's innocent smile hides a dark past full of guilt and anguish and all those wonderfully horrible memories that make a character interesting.
She held the sole POV during the first three Enthrall novels.
Vanessa Fewings took a risk by turning over the reigns to Cameron's point of view, but it was a great decision.
This series is beautifully written,
The characters are complex, flawed, and interesting,
It's detailed in a way which is immersive and shines brightly,
and its so incredibly sexy. Gloriously sexy. Drool-worthy Sexiness...
And be warned, there is a mean cliffhanger at the end of this novella, but I have it on good authority that we won't be waiting long for the next novella, Cameron's Contract.
I'll be impatiently waiting for more Cameron Cole until that day comes.

Dr. Cameron Cole is back in all of his dark, sexy, broody billionaire glory...
I was consumed by this ecstasy tearing through me.I'm thrilled to tell you that this story is written 100% from Dr. Cole's POV! Being inside his head was such a treat, a back stage pass to the enigmatic Cameron Cole was just what I needed.
This was what it was to love with out barriers.
Bliss.

Dr. Cameron Cole
I'd found her.Dr. Cole is not prince charming - he's wonderfully, beautifully flawed. Overly asshole-ish and stubborn at times, and there were moments when I really wanted to punch him in his perfect face.
The one.
I knew it in the depth of my soul.
Even if the journey had been harrowing, there was no doubt Mia was worth every angst filled moment until I'd been able to call her mine.
He's absurdly smart, a gifted psychologist, and philanthropist. He's classy and sophisticated in a way that can only be achieved from a lifetime of living in luxury.

Mia Lauren
The objective to find the right applicant had gone... swimmingly. Right up until the point I'd fallen for her. All I had to do was train her. Break her. Prime her. Ready her.Mia and I struggled to see eye to eye over the course of this series. As her character flourished, I saw a spark of something feisty and lovely within her. As she grew throughout these books she gained confidence and self esteem and became a charming young woman.
Tame her.
But she'd trapped me instead.
My once ironclad will was tossed into disarray.
I had forgotten just how young she is... A fresh-faced naïve twenty-one years old. I don't usually connect with the virginal archetypes. They tend to be trope-y and frustrating, especially when an author thrusts one into a D/s dynamic...

"I distinctly recall telling you I'd overpower every aspect of your life. Completely dominate you, and while I was at it I'd most likely fuck you half to death."I was already a fan of this series, but I was still blown away by this story...
And be warned, there is a mean cliffhanger at the end of this novella, but I have it on good authority that we won't be waiting long for the next novella, Cameron's Contract.
I'll be impatiently waiting for more Cameron Cole until that day comes.

BEST SERIES EVER! I couldn't but this novel down!!!
Cameron’s Control is the fourth book in the Enthrall Sessions series and is an erotic romance novella written by Vanessa Fewings. I was gifted a copy from the author in exchange for an honest review through Literati Author Services .
5+ “kings of hedonism” Stars!
A Masterful Work of Sensuality and Intrigue that Totally Brought the Feels. An Intense, Incendiary Read!
The Review:
I was just souljacked in the best possible way! I’m serious when I say, this novella has RUINED ME for all other books this year. In two words? Absolute. Perfection!
Story/Characters...
Cameron Cole is back and he’s ready to claim what’s his. If you’ve been a follower of this series, you know things left off in a wonderful place in book three but Cameron demanded to be heard in this series of novellas told strictly from his POV. Cameron’s Control picks up right where book three, Enthrall Him, ended. Mia and Cameron finally have the freedom to unite both heart and body as they become Master and sub, lover and friend, couple and soulmate. Under Cameron’s control, Mia’s femininity and her sexuality can flourish, their future wide open for them to explore, command, submit and love.
But even as they become closer, as their hearts intertwine, their solid ground becomes shaky once more and their pasts come back to haunt them leaving uncertainty in it’s wake.
Getting inside Cameron’s head was an exotic gift. His thoughts are entrancing and bewitching as the author delved into his mind and feelings and his unique way of thinking. The man is exquisite in every way. From his unyielding command, to his sophisticated and charming presence, to his hedonistic play, he exudes power and authority as he demands absolute obedience. But he’s also vulnerable and in some ways, afraid, as he wades the tides of love. All that wrapped in one titillating package lead to him being one of my all time favorite book boyfriends. Having this novella in his POV only solidified it. Quite simply, that man is effing hot!
This novella was sexy, beautiful and all consuming. However, Cameron and Mia have some real obstacles to overcome and the author gives us a bevy of delicious intrigue and sensual bedroom play all the while building a suspense that leaves off on one heck of a cliffy.
The Writing...
I’ll never tire of Vanessa Fewings writing style. She has a beautiful, poetic flair and she is without a doubt a master wordsmith as each word, sentence and paragraph displays an elegant pose that simply delights. She knows how to draw you in, consume you and hold you captive till the very end and then for days after, you’re still pausing to think about the story, characters and all the feelings you experienced while reading one of her books.
This novella took it to a whole other level. I have loved this divine series since the first book but I always wondered what was going on in that brilliant mind of Cameron Cole. Not in my wildest imagination could I have ever pictured a more perfect POV. The time spent with his thoughts were exhilarating and I found myself wanting to slow down to savor every chapter but like Cameron, I wouldn’t be denied my pleasures as I powered through to the very end.
And that ending.... thankfully the next book is coming soon and I won't lose too much of my nails waiting in suspense.
The Wrap Up:
What else is there to say. This series is the best. Start it. Read it. Love it. Become obsessed with it. That about sums it up. This seductive world will literally Enthrall you!
Just SOME of my Favorite Quotes...
Quote Spotlight...
Mia was finally mine.
And I gave a silent prayer, promising to dedicate the rest of my life to protecting her and ensuring her happiness.
Quote Spotlight...
The world could go on alone.
The serenest retreat awaited me.
Mia, my refuge, my escape.
Quote Spotlight...
“Mia, love is just a word. That’s all. I promise to show you how I feel by reminding you each day I don’t take you for granted. I will honor you. Protect you. Shelter you from the storms before they even happen. I will worship you with my body, my mind, my heart, and my soul.”

5 Sensual, Commanding Stars!
The Review:
Having read the written version of this book, I was excited to get my hands on the audio version. I was excited to see how Cameron’s character would be voiced and trust me when I say, it not only lived up to all my expectations, it completely surpassed them! David Steele does a remarkable job in the telling of Cameron’s perspective and I would highly suggest this book... this whole series... to everyone who is looking for a seductive, sexy, enthralling read!
Cameron Cole is front and center with his own narrative in Cameron’s Control. We’ve heard from Mia in the first three book and now the author gives us the delectable doctor in all his fascinating and irresistible sexiness. His mind, his body, his absolute manliness is all portrayed beautifully in this book. The journey Mia took us on in the first three novels is only enhanced by Cameron’s words and thoughts as he picks up their story right where books three ended.
The Story/Characters...
From my original book review: “Mia and Cameron finally have the freedom to unite both heart and body as they become Master and sub, lover and friend, couple and soulmate. Under Cameron’s control, Mia’s femininity and her sexuality can flourish, their future wide open for them to explore, command, submit and love.

This [audio novel] was sexy, beautiful and all consuming. However, Cameron and Mia have some real obstacles to overcome and the author gives us a bevy of delicious intrigue and sensual bedroom play all the while building a suspense that leaves off on one heck of a cliffy.”
The Audio Version...
I’m an avid reader with thousands of book notches on my reading post and with all those books come some truly great heroes. However, Cameron Cole is in a league of his own and takes an honored spot in my Top Five List of best book boyfriends ever! With that in mind, I knew whoever voiced him would have to be special to hold up to the high standards I have for this character. He needed to be able to capture Cameron’s intelligence, his gentleness and his absolute dominance. He needed a strong yet compassionate voice to aptly express all his alluring attributes. David Steele is that voice! He read with just the right inflection to articulate Cameron's commanding presence but also his vulnerability. He did an absolute phenomenal job and with a voice you could listen to all day long, he is Cameron Cole.
The Wrap Up:
I can’t suggest this series enough. I’ve loved it since the first book. It quietly explores an exotic, suggestive world of pleasure, submission, dominance and love. These character captured my heart from the moment the first page opened and I have yet to find a read that is as enthralling as this. Vanessa Fewings will, without a doubt, wow you with her storytelling and this audiobook is icing on an already exquisite cake. If you like audio books, you’ll love this one. If you’re not a huge fan of audiobooks, you’ll still love this one!

I have been waiting to see if Vanessa could deliver on giving Cameron his chance to take his future by the horns………...I can honestly say that the start of this series delivered on all my hopes one more. I didn’t think it was possible to fall harder for Cameron Cole, but I can say that without a doubt that is exactly what happened.
My Cameron Cole -
We pick up right where we are left off at the end of The Enthrall Series wondering what will become of Cameron and Mia. I had my own hopes for these two if they got a chance to see where their relationship could go. The question is will they be able to overcome their differences and the guilt that plagued their start??
The biggest change to this series is that we finally get it from Cameron’s POV!! Right off the bat Cameron in slapped in the face with loads of guilt when he see Mia on the shore waiting for him. The plan was to find someone that would be able to bring Richard to his knees and change his path from self destruction to the safety of a future. The problem is that Cameron never expect to connect with Mia the way he did during her training. Both face guilt centered around Richard, but once given a chance to talk with Richard it becomes evident how much he cares for both of them. Watching Booth set them free to explore a future, proves just how important and unique they to him a forever friends.
What makes them one of the best couples centers around the fact that they bring to the table the elements needed by the other to make their lives everything they thought was out of reach. Cameron is the protective and nurturing male that Mia never expected to find after her past. Mia is pure innocence and unfiltered passion that doesn’t sit back and accept Cameron’s dominance, but challenges him to move forward.

“Mia, I told you I’d posses you beyond all understanding.” “ I remember.” “Time to show you what I meant.”

My Cameron Cole -
We pick up right where we are left off at the end of The Enthrall Series wondering what will become of Cameron and Mia. I had my own hopes for these two if they got a chance to see where their relationship could go. The question is will they be able to overcome their differences and the guilt that plagued their start??
The biggest change to this series is that we finally get it from Cameron’s POV!! Right off the bat Cameron in slapped in the face with loads of guilt when he see Mia on the shore waiting for him. The plan was to find someone that would be able to bring Richard to his knees and change his path from self destruction to the safety of a future. The problem is that Cameron never expect to connect with Mia the way he did during her training. Both face guilt centered around Richard, but once given a chance to talk with Richard it becomes evident how much he cares for both of them. Watching Booth set them free to explore a future, proves just how important and unique they to him a forever friends.

WOW! So, ever since hearing that there would be more Cameron Cole, every other book has been a time passer until I could get my hands on Cameron's Control.
I started this ARC, as soon as I received it, who wouldn't? But I found my mind wandering on little details, constantly trying to picture events from the books before. I know it wasn't all that long ago that I had read Enthrall Him, but I wanted to be fresh on all the details, so I could fully appreciate this new novella. So, I crazily decided to do a full series re-read. Which I loved just as much the third time, as the first. No idea how, as I'm not that much of a re-reader.
Anyway, after a crazy week of not getting it read very swiftly, I decided to pull an all day read yesterday, and read both Enthrall Him & Cameron's Control, back to back. Wow! A whole day of Cameron, best day ever! So after refreshing myself on all the details and facts, I could move straight on.
Obsession.
Only now did I understand its true torment.
I'd personally become acquainted with the misery of an impossible conquest.
Cameron's Control literally picks straight up from the end of Enthrall Him. In fact, this time it is Cameron's POV, and it goes a little further back to his moments before seeing Mia on the shore.
As my mind was already all over the place from the epic read of Enthrall Him, I was in a perfect position to fully appreciate the next stage.
It did feel a little different to be reading from Cameron's pov, I absolutely love that man, more than any other fictional character, ever. And he has proved to be truly amazing, once inside his head and thoughts. But sadly, I missed Mia. I know, it's totally crazy, and I did truly love to read from Cameron's pov, it's great to hear his version of events, or opinions on matters, that were so hard to fully gauge before. But, it did feel kind of quiet without Mia's beautiful mind. I loved reading the stories from her pov, she is an incredible character, and I felt like I missed her. Certain scenes that she was in, I found myself wondering what she was thinking. Yes I know, odd.
Anyway, it didn't in any way spoil the story. That was simply perfection.
This time we are watching Cameron and Mia, finally getting their HEA, even if it takes a tumultuous ride to get there.
We still get the incredible atmosphere, the intense and overwhelming passion between Cameron and Mia, but we now get other new developments.
Cameron's past is a focal point this time, it's coming back to bite his gorgeous butt, and how he and Mia are going to deal with it.
It's Cameron under pressure, and completely thrown, but still handling it like the god that he is.
We also get another blast from the past, causing trouble for the couple. I won't say too much about it, as it will spoil the build up, but it would seem nobody wants Mia and Cameron to get things easy.
All these events, and twists and turns are what makes this story so incredibly gripping. Of course the amazing passion that occurs quite frequently, certainly helps.
The objective to find the right applicant had gone...
swimmingly. Right up until the point I'd fallen for her.
All I had to do was train her.
Break her.
Prime her.
Ready her.
Tame her.
But she'd trapped me instead.
If we thought the intense, other worldly, and page sizzling sex scenes were incredible in Enthrall Him, well they were certainly bumped up a notch in this story. Being in Cameron's mind whilst he totally works over Mia, is an intense place to be. Usually we get Mia, immersed in subspace, and beyond rational thought (who wouldn't be) but this time it's from Cameron, and yeah wow! He really is a man of power and control. Seeing the scenes play out from his eyes and mind, makes it a totally different experience.
I'd found her. The one. I knew it in the depth of my soul. Even if the journey had been harrowing, there was no doubt Mia was worth every angst filled moment until I'd been able to call her mine.
Random thought: Two words, The Vault. Yep, I want one in my house.
*Looks at floor*
Hmmm not gonna happen, plus I would also need a Cameron to place down there, again, not gonna happen.
We get to see a few new characters in this novella, or characters that were introduced before, and we are seeing more of them. Henry, for one. I loved Henry, Cameron's older reclusive brother, from what we saw of him in Enthrall Him, and he is now back in Cameron's Control, which I'm so happy about. He is another version of Cameron, without the social graces, and filter, which makes him so funny, and I really would love to see him with Mistress Scarlett. That would be perfect.
McKensie, hmmm don't trust her. Don't like her. Mia really needs to go feral on her.
Vanessa Fewings flawless writing is again what makes this story shine. Her vision of the world within this series, is what makes it come alive. The beautiful imagery, leaves you wishing you could jump within the pages.
It's obvious her knowledge of certain subjects, is what makes this book different from all the rest. You can't have these sorts of intense characters, subject matter, and content, in a book, without knowing what you're talking about. It's obvious in this book (and series) that the facts weren't just researched on the internet, certain elements are far too complex, to even attempt to broach without full knowledge, and experience. The psychological aspect of this book, because it's Cameron's pov not Mia's, is a very important factor in the story, but incredibly insightful. To me, it just showed how much better this book was, to others within the genre. It stands alone, and I can't really compare it to others.
Now of course, the ending is pretty intense, and yes a cliffhanger, BUT the follow up is mere weeks away, so it really isn't all that drastic, and worth panicking over. It was rather epic, and I was biting my finger nails down to nothing, the tension and panic on the pages, were crazy exciting.
I'm unbelievably excited for the follow up to Cameron's Control. This novella was perfection, and I'm still so happy that Vanessa Fewings didn't end this world, with Enthrall Her. The possibilities are literally endless, so many incredible characters within the world of Enthrall, and Chrysalis. I really hope it never ends.
This was an incredibly good read, and recommended to anyone and everyone, who loves their books to have, the most Dominant and Alpha of all fictional male characters. With complex story lines, that are clever, intense, and really get you thinking, whilst gripping your kindle. Plus, unbelievably hot and mind numbing sex scenes, that will ruin you for all other book, that delve in to this risky but addictive subject matter. The world will leave you wanting more.
Mia was more than my lover, she was my life, and I was willing to do anything to save her.
Anything.
10 Stars.

Cameron looks at Mia and says “I love you so much. I’ve always loved you. From the moment I laid eyes on you. And I always will.” For everyone who has read the Enthrall Series, I’m sure you had tears in your eyes as I did when he tells her this right in the beginning of this novella. Finally!!
This novella picks up right where the last one left off with Richard dropping Mia off at the beach house after he ends their D/s relationship. He realizes that although he loves her, Cameron has been in love with her from day one and her with him. He loves Cameron and wants him to be happy so he does the right thing for both of them.
Cam and Mia’s love for each other is off the charts hot. Cameron is happy; he is in love with beautiful Mia, who he can’t believe is his. He is reflective of when he first met her and how he instantly was obsessed with her. She is sweet, giving, caring and the perfect submissive. We see a slightly different Cameron in this book. He is still very much the Master/Dom that we all fell in love with and the sexy BDSM scenes are hotter than ever, but he is more at peace with himself when he is with her.
As with most relationships, there are always obstacles along the way. We meet Henry again, we meet Cameron’s parents and we also meet Cameron’s ex-fiancé. Yes, you will want to kill her, I can tell you that. Cameron is also dealing with business problems and Mia’s past is colliding with her present. The ending is a cliff hanger. This was a great novella and I loved it as I did all the other books in this series. I think Vanessa Fewings writing is amazing, and I anxiously wait for the next novella to come out to see what happens with the cliff hanger!! I would recommend the Enthrall Series to anyone who loves erotic BDSM stories, throw in some intrigue, mystery & love and you will not be able to put these books down until you have read them all.

Before I start my review let me tell you that this is the first time I listen to an audiobook and I am speechless. Now I understand the fascination about audiobooks. Literally, the characters come alive trough the voice of the narrator. He is able to transmit feelings and expressions, something that could be missed while reading.
Sebastian York is the man who gave his voice to Cameron. He has a very sexy voice that matches perfectly Cameron. This is exactly how I imagined it when I read the book some time ago. Vanessa did a good choice. Listening to this audiobook was amazing.
This is about Cameron. He is an intelligent billionaire and a dominant. A sinful male who has found his perfect submissive. He had trained her for his best friend but lately he realized that he was captivated by her. If you have read the first books of the series you will know what I mean. Cameron’s Control is told by the man side. (So you will enjoy the man’s mind as much as I did.)
At this stage Cameron will keep Mia for him. As her Master he will explore and worship her body. He will consume her soul and will control her as everything in his life.
The chemistry is intense. They have a steamy relationship that is evolving into something stronger but some people of their past will try to hurt them.
I highly enjoy the evolution of Cameron and Mia's relationship. It is a pleasure to see how a dominant lose a bit of control because his emotions. Mia is the perfect and devoted submissive but she also has a strong character. She will do everything to please Cameron. They are in love and they protect each other in different ways.
A strong point is the signing of the Dom-Sub contract. It will be a discussion for them which of course Cameron win.
If you are into audiobooks you can’t miss this one. You will fall in love with Sebastian (the narrator).

I absolutely LOVED the enthrall series and the days leading up to the release of Cameron's control had put me on edge and was pure torture to say the least.
But I felt a bit disappointed about this book , Cam's doubting Mia's love for him and taking it out on her instead of being straight and asking her what's going on disappointed me... I know hitting a woman is frikken wrong but that vindictive Beyoooch Zie and that damn Laura really need a whipping :| and Is it just me or is Laura and that ho( pardon my language) together??? I get Cam's in control and all I'm mr macho but he didn't have to sit so long and listen to either of their crap about what they think. His reaction or lack there of pissed me off ,he claimed to love Mia so much but he didn't have to listen to them downsizing his feelings for her or their relationship. I still feel as though cam still has feelings for Zie. Listening to how much Zie says she wants to get back together with cam and why she thinks they'll be good together and trying to destroy how amazing mia is just solidify's one thing for me ....She's a FRIKKKKEN PSYCHOPATH !!!!!!!
The contract he made Mia sign made me doubt his feelings for her.. If he really believed they'd be together like the way he showed us and made us fall in love with him in the previous books then he wouldn't have done that( I mean paying her of once they break up and then about his protection if she plans to sell her story to a magazine etc,. Ugh he claims Mia is so innocent yet he does things that make me doubt how much of Mia's nature he knows about) Mia's lack of anger and hurt made me believe she was that desperate especially when the marriage topic came up, Maybe I've built up my expectations to high but I felt as though this book lacked something the others had.
I still can't wait for the next book though, hopefully seeing things in a new perspective.

What happens when one of you favorite book series is told in the POV of the heroine and you are often left to wonder what is the hero thinking at pivotal parts of the book?
More often than not we are just left discussing with your book buddies and left to use our own imagination. Sometimes, if we get lucky we get a whole book with the same story but told in our hero’s POV. Wish granted right? Not always.
In the Enthrall series we see Mia with two equally handsome men but one just stands out a little more than the other. The other is Cameron. The story is complex but leaves you rooting for Mia to make the right choice. We got three books is Mia’s POV and they were great, But. I wanted to read what was Cameron thinking, what made him tick? Well. I got my wish and then some.
Cameron’s Control is not a retelling of the Enthrall Series. It picks up right where Enthrall Him left off. But this time we get inside Cameron’s head. We finally get to see how his feelings for Mia controlled everything he did in the first three books. His love for his family, friends and Mia, just made me fall in love with him even more. There is a new character from Cameron’s past that threatens our HEA for Mia and Cameron. Then there are even more dangers to Mia that we don’t see coming because we don’t see what is going on in Mia’s life. And this plays into Cameron’s old feelings of distrust and hurt he thought he could control. There was one scene that left me in tears and I just wanted it to be over as soon as possible. It was enthralling and it will leave you wanting more and wanting answers.
I think Vanessa did a wonderful job in continuing the story of Mia and Cameron instead of going the retelling of the same story from Cam’s POV. Genius!

Mia: "I want to keep working at Enthrall"
Cameron: "With Richard as your boss?"
Mia: "Of course"
Cameron: "Out of the question"
Cute, isn't he? :D
Throughout the Enthrall series, I never fail to pick up favorite dialogues:-
Mia: "I need to make a living, Cameron"
Cameron: "No, you think that, but in reality life will be much easier for you if you let me take care of everything"
Cameron: "I warned you that should you become mine the experience would be one of intense ownership. That I would possess you beyond all understanding"
Cameron: "I distinctly recall telling you I'd overpower every aspect of your life. Completely dominate you and while I was at it, I'd most likely fuck you half to death"
Cameron: "This world has the potential to destroy your soul. I will not stand by and allow anyone to hurt you. Ever. I will always watch over you"
OHHHHHH DR COLE! I WANNA WEEP JUST IMAGINING YOU! * weeping now * I don't think I can ever get enough of Cameron, I am in awe with his character......I can orgasm from just his words alone.
And that Doctor to Doctor conversation he had with Dr Tavon, GAWDDDDD, TOTAL HOTNESS! SUCH BRILLIANCE! The only dissatisfaction I have with this is the length ~ IT'S TOO SHORT! I'm still suffering from this Dr Cole craving :D
I can't wait for the continuation.
Ms Fewings, in this novella, Henry said first comes the dog, then comes the babies :) will my Charming Dr Cole be entertaining that thought again and putting it into action in the near future? *hopeful grin*

Delving deeper into the mind of Dr Cameron Cole with the first of two Novellas from the Enthrall trilogy this is told solely from his POV. It is advised that you read the trilogy beforehand.
Cameron's Control picks up just slightly before the ending of Enthrall Him.
I doubt handing over the not so perfect sub Mia to Richard his friend and business partner was ever going to be easy for Cameron. But then falling for her himself ( I smell trouble) Can all be forgiven so easily..? Now that Richard has set Mia free knowing that she will run straight into the arms his good friend. We get to see how Cameron and Mia's relationship develops now they have the freedom to be what they couldn't before.
A party at New Year signals the beginning of a bump in the road for the couple when a run in with Cameron's past interrupts their evening. With a less than pleasant meeting between his ex fiancé Mckenzie (Zie) and now girlfriend/sub Mia will cracks in their relationship begin to form or bring them closer together?
Mia needs the security of marriage,would cameron be able to put his past demons aside? Would he ever make Mia or anyone Mrs Cameron Cole? (Lots of questions!)
Zie comes across as vindictive ( I dislike her - booooo!) also I get the feeling she has some unfinished business to attend to involving Cameron.
Towards the end it takes an unexpected twist and being left with a cliffhanger I'm thrilled that the next novella Cameron's Contract is not too far away.

This book picks up where we are left after the end of the Enthrall Series. Mia and Cameron have acknowledged their feelings for one another and are trying to make things work. There are some challenges based on their unusual history, but for the most part they are finding that they both need each other quite a bit. In this novella we go through the story from Cameron's perspective, and it is interesting after going through the Enthrall series from Mia's standpoint, we now get to see what Cameron's real feelings and challenges are.
A woman from Cameron's past enters the picture and is not pleasant for anyone to deal with. It was difficult to see Cameron and Mia forced to go through more challenges than they already were. I did find that while the chemistry between Mia and Cameron was still strong, their dynamic definitely changed a little. Cameron was still attempting control and domination over Mia, but it seemed like their edge was softened a bit. There was still some D/s play going on, but I missed some of the rougher stuff from the earlier books in the series. Fans of the Enthrall series will enjoy getting to spend more time with these characters and seeing the direction their lives are taking. There is a bit of a cliff hanger at the end of this, and I look forward to reading the next in the series.

This is a Novella off the Enthrall Sessions series but you need to read them first to really understand what is happening. Cameron and Mia are finally together. Cameron is hesitant at first; he thinks he should send her back to Richard. Then he learns that Richard dropped Mia off where he was and said he couldn’t be with her. Cameron has never felt like that about anyone before. He is in love with Mia. However his past is going to make an appearance and it will influence his relationship with Mia. Mia is worried that Cameron will grow tired of her at some point. She is so much younger than him and he is so much smarter than her. Cameron is the only one for Mia it is going to take both of them to find their footing though. This relationship is different for both of them. Cameron is the only who can handle Mia and Mia is Cameron’s solace. They come for very different upbringings. However not of that matters to Cameron never has never will. Mia has managed to get Cameron’s older brother Henry to come out of hiding and reunited the brothers, everyone under estimates Mia and what she is capable of. I love Cameron and Mia together. They both have their fears about their relationship. I can’t wait to read more of Cameron and Mia’s story. I love Vanessa’s writing and can’t wait to read the next book, another fantastic job.

Wow
Cameron Cole is the Dom of my dreams! Could there be a Man more intense and compelling? I think not.
Finally, he and Mia are a couple officially but there are still shadows in the corner who don't want this to happen. Cameron begins to slip, Mia truly has betwixt him but there is more...off to book 5 to find out more.

What made the experience of listening to Cameron's Control the most enjoyable?
It was just the pleasure of listening to the story of the man behind Enthrall.
What other book might you compare Cameron's Control to and why?
I'm not into comparing one book against another because I don't feel that it's fair to either author. But there's enough in this series that you could compare this to any of the previous books and it's a great addition.
Have you listened to any of Sebastian York’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I love listening to any book that Mr. York has narrated. There's just something about his voice. I end up losing myself in the book - I don't hear any outside noise, I forget what's going on around me, and I'm left seeing myself in the scenes that are playing out before me.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
I think it's the point where a very alpha male is brought to his knees when he realizes that he has found the one that completes him.
Any additional comments?
Each book in this series just seems to get better and better. We get to see inside the world of a man that commands everything around him. He closes himself off from others because of what goes on in his personal life. But as a listener we get to have those words spoken that just wouldn't be the same when we read the book ourselves. In days gone by it was mostly women that did the narrating. I don't think I would have enjoyed this book as much if that was done here. We need that male voice letting us know what Cameron is saying and feeling.The author has other projects going on right now so that gives me time to go back and enjoy the Enthrall books that I have missed. I do like to read books, don't get me wrong, but there's just something about this series that I prefer someone to do that for me. This is listed as a standalone but do yourself a favor and enjoy this series in order. You will get a better understanding of the characters this way.
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Audio Copy of this book.

4.5 Crazy Ass Stars!!!
First off I should disclose that I didn't read the Enthrall Trilogy. I did feel a little lost in the beginning but not too lost that I felt like I couldn't get a grasp on things. Vanessa does a great job of giving just enough info to catch up on things. Now, the book whore in me though will be reading those books soon.
Sebastian York has this way with his narrations that just draw you in and keep you "enthralled" (pun very much intended). Seriously though, he could read the phone book and I would be on the edge of my seat. He totally made Cameron's character come to life for me.
I wasn't feeling a connection between Cameron and Mia at first. Maybe that had something to do with not reading the previous books. I don't know but it kind of felt off until Mackenzie entered the picture. The tension/drama Mackenzie added to Cameron and Mia's relationship seemed to connect with them as a couple more.
That ending though. I had to start Cameron's Contract before I could write this review. It would have killed me to wait.

It was nice to read a different pov in this series. I did not realize how much of a conto freak Cameron really is until now. Mia must really love this lifestyle in order to put up with it. Makenzie really makes things interesting in this story. I personally think she is sleeping with her therapist but she definitely wants Cameron back and I think she will stop at nothing to get him back. Even if that means she will blackmail and terrorize Mia to do it. I'm curious as to what has Mia so spooked and I'm looking forward to the next book in the series
