This story didn’t do it for me, for one the characters fell flat, for another, the story only progressed along because of reasons.Instead of giving the reader the feeling that Luke was an in demand Dom, he just came across as such a pretentious dick. Then there was the fact that Luke picked Katherine as his new sub, out of all those applicants, even though he never takes on brand new subs, because reasons. Katherine annoyed me as well, she claims to be someone who wants to learn to submit, but doesn’t do any research, she even goes to the meeting with Luke without learning about the lifestyle she apparently wants to get into. This is just irresponsible. The relationship progressed between the two only because reasons, without actually having the characters develop at all throughout the story. I'm more of a contemporary romance kind of gal, so I didn't know what to expect when I bought this book. What I didn't count on, was that I wouldn't be able to put the damn thing down!Ella has this wonderful flowing voice and creates characters that jump off the page. I found myself glued to Katherine and Luke's story, reading as quickly as I could just to see what happened next. Even the erotic and BDSM elements of the book didn't put me off. I was right there with the characters, feeling everything they were (okay, not literally or I'd have had to put the book down for a bit) but I was definitely connected to their emotions. Would highly recommend this book to all readers, even those who don't read erotica. Absolutely brilliant. Will definitely be reading more from Ella Jade.
What do You think about Be My Everything (2011)?
This is just what I needed after 2 really emotional books. Light, uncomplicated and easy.

3.5 stars. Good but not great. Characters were ok. Story bland. Not one to reread.
—Parissa
Lucas & Katherine would love to read another book about them.
