This fourth box set has three books/stories within it! It is composed of Triad, Alphas and Guardians. These titles really speak for themselves as to the contents of each book.
Triads gives us a further look as to how well the three characters are meshing together regardless of all the trials and tribulations they face.
Alphas shows us not only James and Michael's strength of character in dealing with our beautiful Charlotte, but gives us a wonderful insight into our other great alpha, Richard Haswell. In this one we also see Charlotte's disregard for the police because of her past history....whenever she ran away from the orphanage, the police would return her to them regardless of how she tried to tell them of the awful abuse, the police would not listen or believe a child! Now, the police not only abandoned her to the abusers, but they are trying to get James for buying her at the auction. Welllll...She will not have it and will not help them with that or the Blessingmoor's investigation either....unless the Commissioner, Will Stanton, gives James immunity from the auction investigation!! Our Charlotte is one tough cookie....learned by her abusive past!
Guardians goes on to tell us how much James and Michael care, love and protect Charlotte against all of the evils in her life, past and present. They are constantly looking out for her as she looks out for them too! She has finally obtained a letter from the Commissioner, Will Stanton, granting James immunity from all of the auction's investigation, and not only that, but given that the police have no way of knowing where Beth Haswell is being held by the kidnappers....our Charlotte has decided to use herself as bait in a most intelligent fashion by buying all sorts of trackers to be placed in her items, person, car, and cellphone....ingenious!!
I cannot wait to read Hunters!!! I am anxiously awaiting the next rewrite as Guardians ended with Charlotte ending in the kidnappers arms...just as she had planned and the men, including the Police Commissioner, are following her travails via website and her trackers. Hopefully this will lead the men and the police to where Beth is kept as well as get our Charlotte back!

Charlotte is mastering her men in this series
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book from the author in return for an honest review. This is my 9th book by Simone and I love an author who writes in dual point of view. This is a page turner for sure.
Triad – Charlotte is surprised at her college apartment by James and Michael who missed being with her. When James’ boss asks that Charlotte be interviewed by the police about the childrens home she grew up in, they ask for it to be delayed until her winter break. There are flashbacks to Jennifer’s (aka Charlotte) life after escaping from the home and being brought back when caught. This story ends when Charlotte interviews with the police but ends it early as for something entirely different.
Alphas – Charlotte is interviewed by Will, Richard’s friend, the police commissioner over her prior failed police interview. After Charlotte identifies several of the traffickers from her childrens home, the police suggest she not go back to college and keep a low profile. When Beth doesn’t return home from Charlotte and her shopping trip, Richard’s bodyguard discovered she was kidnapped. Charlotte mentions that men were looking at them during the day, and she identifies one in the police database.
Guardians – Charlotte works on overlaying the various maps of the city after her men realize she is going crazy being cooped up with nothing to do. Michael and James are besides themselves with worry when Charlotte does the unthinkable and escapes her guilded cage to help her friend. Will James, Michael, and Richard be able to track Charlotte to locate Elizabeth?
You are left on a cliff hanger, so waiting the next book.

The mastering continues, Great storyline!
The was my third book (rather set of books) by Simone. This set of books is all about the continuing relationship between Charlotte, Michael and James. This set is told from the point of view of the Doms, James and Michael. This is the timeframe before Hunters book 16. This has a sinister sub-plot Charlotte is being stalked but no one knows it until Beth, the heroine in Bought by the Billionaire, is kidnapped. Charlotte is not a sit bavk and let her Doms take care of things. She sets out to kidnap Beth back on her own! James and Michael are furious but also worried for her and Beth’s safety. The police are no help at all! It is an absolutely captivating read. The POV of the men made the story so much more realistic. I never felt lost in the story or that I was reading the story in the middle. Simone’s storytelling skills are excellent. She gives just enough background without it being retelling of previous books. Of course it’s sizzling hot. It’s in the BDSM genre so you should expect that and Simone delivers! I can’t wait to read the rest of her books. I recommend this book!

The plot thickens!
The story has turned from erotic to erotic thriller. My understanding is that Simone Leigh started by writing a short story, and then added another, and another. The stories are well written and don't feel like piecemeal. It flows well as if it was meant to be an on-going series.
Simone Leigh continues to write incredibly steamy scenes. But now we get to see more about Charlotte's past, we learn her mother's name, and present-day Klempner gets a few chapters. The saga continues! Her past is catching up to her!
Michael, James and Charlotte continue to work on their Triad. We see that Michael and James are not in love with each other, but that they do in fact love each other like brothers and trust each other implicitly. Charlotte, on the other hand, is her usual self; determined, loyal, strong-willed, fun, and smart. And the two men can't seem to live without her.
I need to know what happens next!

Mastering the Virgin, Box Set Four. This book is great!! I have read Simone's future books telling the story of Charlotte, Michael, and James. Now going back to this book helps put the whole story into perspective. How Charlotte's past had molded her into the woman she becomes. The Triad is a very close and loving group that takes care of each other. Michael and James cares deeply for Charlotte and will protect her even when her strong will takes over and she wants to do everything to find her friend Elizabeth from the kidnappers. The suspense in this book is great! I suggest continue reading the series and find out what happens with Charlotte finding out about her mom and father. Life with the Triad becomes complicated as well as bringing Charlotte all kinds of joy. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review of this book.

Mastering the Virgin: Box Set Four
Mastering the Virgin, Box Set Four continues the story of Charlotte, James and Michael with books 13-15 - Triad, Alphas, and Guardians. The relationship continues to grow, change and develop. But there is danger for Charlotte as she has a stalker, and that ties into the Bought by the Billionaire series. This leads to even more danger as Charlotte is a determined woman who is not willing to let the men protect her and she is about to put herself right in the middle of things which could end dramatically.
The BDSM and sex scenes are still smoking hot, like burn your fingers as you are reading hot. But there is more to the characters and their relationship as the series continues, peeling back the onion on everyone.

There are no words for this exciting boxset but WOW!!! Inside is a more in depth look into Charlotte AKA Jenny BKA Jade Eyes. Her story is heart wrenching and enriching all at once. This is not your typical submissive. Strong willed. Strong minded. Fiercely loyal. All things to make up for a Knight in Shining Armor but we get this feral stunning Valkryie. Along with her for this epic read is her master James and her Golden Lover, Michael. You find that this Triad runs deeper than the eye sees. A stunning work of art that yet again leaves you wanting more of this tale. FIVE STARS!!!!!

This fourth box set in the Mastering the Virgin series is a masterpiece. It continues the story of Charlotte, James, Michael, Richard, and Elizabeth. While some old villains and mysteries are revealed, some things still remain in shadow. What happened to Charlotte’s mother? Why does Klempner hate her family so much? How were they involved with his trafficking ring? Every book pulls you onward with exciting action and heart-pounding suspense. I love the mystery and suspense, and also the truly complex and fascinating characters the author has created. I am eager for more of the story.

This box set four is continuing the men's POV from the Buying the Virgin series, where that is only Charlotte's POV. Not really stand-alone, I would highly recommend reading both Buying the Virgin series and starting at the beginning of this Mastering the Virgin series. Does end on quite the cliffhanger. Not a lot of Michael's POV in this, mostly James and also Richard's. Must less erotica and romance, and a lot more suspense. We really see a lot into Charlotte's past and how and where she grew up. Great series and I am looking forward to reading more!!

This is not your average run of the mill BDSM Erotica book. No, this is a heart felt storyline filled with characters that are flawed who truly love each other in their own way and fighting to make this triad work. Follow James, Michael, and Charlotte as Charlotte's past has re-emerged and blended into the present capturing Richard and Elizabeth Haswell in it's evil path as well. What a gripping story you're sure to love
What a talented author and terrific tale she has wove. I can't imagine anyone not already following this unless you've not yet discovered her abilities.

James,Charlotte & Michael
With these three together in these books the author has put together a very good series of all these different things that have come up in all three of there lives. Not only are these books about BDSM they have a real life side so them to but she also brings in different people like Mr. & Mrs. Haswell,Ross and the bad guys and many more people to bring the books to life. So read the whole series from the different points of view and enjoy like I voluntary did. C.

I love all the background of Charlotte’s past. She has such a strong presence that I wish she was someone you could meet in real life. This series was fun to read also because of the thoughts that kept popping up of Richard and James. Two strong men who command such attention that to be able to get a glimpse into their psyche is so much fun and eye opening.

Another great and fabulous box set from Simone. I love reading her books. They never disappoint. Each box set reveals more and more about the wonderful characters and I love reading them from the different perspectives. The ending or should I say cliffhanger, has me chomping at the bit for more. Can't wait for the next boxset.

This is more of the continuation of Charlotte's life and experiences. She sold herself to James and his friend joined them. At one time she left but came back, this is more of a continuation of the story. We get a glimpse into her past, about her parents. These are short stories and this is a great set of books. .

This box set was kinky and steamy, like the others, but included additional excitement with the mystery and danger that involved Charlotte. I love reading about the steamy scenes between the characters but this box set brings new adventure and excitement with it. I love this series and the extra drama and issues Simone Leigh brings the characters makes this a series that you just don't want to put down.

Getting to know Michael, James and Charlotte with some of their inner thoughts, feelings and insecurities was interesting. The flashbacks to Charlotte’s youth really helped give context to other things that were happening. With the current crisis and the story ending with a cliffhanger, I want to dive into the next box set to see what happens!

Charlotte, Michael, and James are growing closer together. She is being stalked and her friend Beth has been taken by traffickers. Charlotte is off to get her back and her men are not happy about it. The characters are strong willed, passionate, and protective. The storyline is fast paced, action oriented and full of entertaining situations and fun banter.

It's a thrilling ride reading the Master and Lover's POV's to this story. As the story goes on I'm more and more convinced that the trio belong together. They're strong separately, but together they're explosive both in and out of the bedroom. Now that both Charlotte and Elizabeth have been kidnapped... it's time to see how the men hold it together!!!.
