See all formats and editions

Getting on his knees makes him question everything…and want even more…

Another failed relationship has lawyer Jamie Fielding confronting the truth—he’ll never be satisfied with any woman until he admits what he needs…to submit and to be used—hard. When a friend invites him to the exclusive Blasphemy club, Jamie is stunned to find everything he ever wanted—in the fierce, ruthless hands of a man.

Psychiatrist Alex McGarry will play with anyone who craves his rough brand of domination, but what he really wants is to settle down. Which makes the submissive male he meets at his club a bad idea—the man might be hot as hell but he’s also new to everything Alex has to offer. Except that doesn’t keep them from coming together again and again, sating every one of their darkest desires.

Master Alex sets Jamie’s whole world on fire and makes him question everything—and that’s good. Because Alex won’t tolerate hiding what they have for long and he wants much more than just having Jamie on his knees...

One of the best books I have read in a very long time!

Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2018

Verified Purchase

This is the most heart breaking, loving, realistic, caring and outstanding book that I have read in a very long time! I am an avid reader (5-8 books a week) and I have to say that Ms. Kaye has blown my socks off with this book! I see that 98% of her books are geared towards M/F. I sure hope that Ms. Kaye will consider writing more books in the M/M genre. Her writing is precise, her research into details is spot on and her way of getting her story lines across with heart breaking, very realistic-believable and loving characters is a true gift! I will certainly be adding "On His Knees to my very short list of re-reads. Here's hoping that Ms. Kaye reads her Reviews and will consider another M/M book in the "Blasphemy" Series. It would have to be a huge hit as well. I just bought another of her books called "Hard to be Good" , I will be reading it today, hopefully it is as intense and heart warming as this book was.

4.5 > An Emotional Journey to Self-Discovery

✩ ✩ ✩ ✩ FOUR & 1/2 - STAR ✩ REVIEW ✩ ✩ ✩ ✩

> > Judging a Book by it's Cover < <
Dayum, this cover is hella hot! Who needs a highly visible title when you've got two smokin' hot men looking at each other like that? Major kudos to the models, photographer, and designer!
Synopsis was very intriguing and I could not wait to squeeze this one into my schedule.

> > Looking Deeper < <
POV ~> Third person POV

At nearly 30 years old, Jamie was about to take an emotional journey of self-discovery and become much more self-aware after yet another relationship hit the road after only a few short months.

"Recognition of your limitations is always a strength, Jamie. In your case, your inexperience is a limitation. One you can overcome."

Master Alex was approaching the big 4-0 and has begun to question his lifestyle, choices, and everything he knew and held true. But when Master Kyler dropped a potential member on him to process and give a tour, he discovered that - on paper, at least - they are nearly a perfect fit. But, he'd learned the hard way, some people SAY one thing and mean something very different. He was not quite so willing to accept this seemingly perfect pairing but he could not deny the attraction and pull he felt either.

"You are my weakness. You are my strength."

While one man learns all he can to become the whole person he wants to be the other is learning to accept that sometimes something so very perfect is all they need to be complete in every way.

~*~

ON HIS KNEES had two BDSM snippets that were a bit uncomfortable to read but overall the premise and display of characters and plot were fantastic and artfully done. This series ties into Laura Kaye's Hard Ink series, loosely, (which I've NOT read) and although it's the 4th book in this series, I felt it could stand alone quite well (I'd not read the previous three in this series either).
It's only about 150 - 160 pages long, so a nice quick read. There was a part that had me choking up for one of the characters, almost bringing me to tears (tears are a very rare reaction and it takes a lot to truly choke me up as well). Jamie's journey... very well done.
Although this story is on the shorter side, I did not find it lacking anywhere critical. The main couple is well-defined and developed. Their chemistry and compatibility were electric and nearly tangible. The cast of secondaries added some nice filler here and there. Dialogue was strong and smart. The interactions are NSFW, mature, but artfully done. The plot was thought out and flowed nicely. There was a bump in their road to their HEA that took a little time, and a push from friends, to resolve but it finally got there. Predictability was low. The conclusion was solid enough, providing their HEA, so I cannot fault the author that I wanted more of them.
I would recommend this to M/M reading seeking that strong, deep emotional bond between characters.

Rating: [R+] ~ Score: 4.35 ~ Stars: 4 (4.5, if I were able)

Perfect Pairing

Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2022

I’m really enjoying the quick reads in this series. Even the full-length books aren’t too long, yet somehow the author always manages to pack a ton of feeling into each story. I’m actually a fan of the insta-love trope and that’s what these books are for sure. But the characters are in intense situations due to their BDSM lifestyle so, for me, it makes a lot of sense. You have to trust your partner in a BDSM situation or it’s not enjoyable, it’s scary.

The author calls on fan favorite Jeremy from her Hard Ink series to introduce Jamie to Blasphemy. Not that Jeremy is a member, but he’s friends with a member and wants to help Jamie out. Especially once he understands that Jamie never even realized he may be a masochist. Jamie hasn’t ever had a great relationship. They’re not bad, but he’s missing something. When Jeremy assumes things about Jamie, it instantly clicks in Jamie’s mind that there’s nothing wrong with him, he just never really looked into this whole other world. He didn’t really understand or know what it was about. Once he starts exploring, he knows he’s found that missing piece he’s been searching for.

For his part, Alex has been active in the community for many years. He’s part owner of Blasphemy and is well known for his sadistic proclivities. Yet, Alex has been feeling as though there’s something missing for him lately, too. Seeing many of his friends and business partners not only find submissives, but life partners, has him feeling ready for the next phase in his life. Good thing Alex’s friends are meddlesome. It’s so obvious Alex and Jamie would be perfect for one another, so Master Kyler forces the issue and throws the two together.

I’ve had a hit or miss relationship with sado-masochism stories. It’s definitely not my thing when an author is extremely graphic. I’m sure there are readers out there that want all the details. I am not one of them. In this story, I felt the author gave enough details to make the story sexy and intriguing without giving minute details that would have possibly pushed things too far. We all have our limits. And I find it very interesting what my own limits are. They don’t need to make sense, you just have know what you like to read and what is too much for you. (For example, I love aggressive consensual non-con but am uncomfortable with electricity play.) Like I said, some may want more detail. For me, the author did a wonderful job of detailing the emotions and feelings in this story. Some of the BDSM scenes were detailed and sexy, others weren’t as detailed but still very sexy.

All that to say, this was a wonderful story. Jamie had a lot to deal with in finding out who he really is and what that means. Not only what he likes in bed, but other aspects of his sexuality he never really considered. Alex had to learn to open up in a different way in order to share his life. Like I said, these two are perfect together.

Hot as hell and full of Love

Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2018

This is the second m/m romance book by Laura Kaye that I've read and she just keeps proving that love is live is love and gender doesnt matter. On his knees is a wonderful love story between two men, one who knows who he is and what he wants and the other who is just learning that what he always thought he was and wanted might be totally different from what is. I really loved this book and this series which is set in a bdsm club called Blasphemy located in downtown Baltimore.

This series is a spin-off from Laura's Hard Ink series and well worth the time it will take to immerse yourself in this world. A++

This book is very intense. Sadist/Masochist relationships aren’t usually my favorite kink to read, but this was perfekt! Thank god I bought this book, it is definitely going into the reread pile. The only think I would have liked more is if it were longer. And I really want a book with Master Leo.

I didn’t think I was going to like this book but I’m so glad I read it . It contains extremely hot sadomasochistic sex between two consenting males but running through it is a beautiful love story .The two main characters are Alex who is another one of the Dom’s that co-own Blasphemy,and Jamie who is going through life having relationships with women but feeling like he’s missing out on something . After breaking up with his girlfriend Jamie decides to get another tattoo done as he needs to feel the pain of the needle ,whilst talking to the tattooist it is clear from what is said that maybe Jamie should try something totally different sexually to what he’s had up until now ,as the tattooist knows one of the Doms at Blasphemy he offers to get Jamie an invite there . There he meets Alex who is a Dom with particular sexual tastes in so much he’s a bi- sexual sadist , whilst giving Jamie the guided tour both men are finding that there’s a strong sexual attraction developing towards one another and soon they give in to their attraction and start their Dom/ Sub relationship . During the course of a few days apart from their sexual compatibility both men are starting to develop deep emotional feelings for one another . After going home to his parents for Christmas Jamie “comes out”to his parents declaring that he’s bi sexual , but obviously leaves out the part of what happens in the club ,and that he’s in a relationship with a man ,both parents are shocked but his mother seems more accepting than his father . After that things are very strained with his parents so much so that he’s so glad to be going back home to Alex the next day . The happy reunion is short lived when something happens the morning after his return and causing Alex to be deeply hurt by Jamie’s actions , it doesn’t take long for Jamie to realise he’s messed up big time and Alex immediately revokes Jamie’s membership to the club . Will this well suited pair be able to get back to where they were ? All I can say is that the ending is beautiful .

There’s nothing hotter than a smoking hot sexy man becoming self-aware of what kink cranks his fire. 6Stars!!!

Reviewed in Australia on February 14, 2018

Laura Kaye really smacked the ball outta the park this time around. On His Knees was smoking hot, sexy as hell and full of enough BDSM to crank the fires of even the most jaded reader.

Jamie Fielding, lawyer, straight, sexy as sin, at almost thirty, it takes another failed relationship for him to really start to question why it always goes so wrong with him and the women he dates. When he returns to his old friend Jeremy Rixey at Hard Ink Tattoo, to get some more tattooing done merely so he can get his dose of endorphins and pain, Jamie realises that he’s not sitting inside the ‘normal box’ like everyone else is. With this realisation he slowly became more self-aware that what he craves is something a bit extra and the vanilla world he’s trying to live in isn’t really his jam.

Alex McGarry, sadist, psychiatrist, at forty, he’s lived the BDSM lifestyle for more than twenty years, as a partner of Blasphemy, the kink club he part owns with eleven other Dommes, he is a man well in tune with what he needs, if only he could ditch how jaded he is with everyone and everything. When the renowned sadist is asked to show Jamie around Blasphemy as a new member wanting to explore his possible masochist side, sparks fly as their compatibility soars. Jamie would be in sub space if only Alex would make ‘come back tomorrow’ mean all his tomorrow’s. Alex would be in domme space if only this amazing connection with the refreshing and sexy sub, would last for longer than a curious interlude.

The first Laura Kaye book I’d ever read was Hard to be Good, and while it was okay, i didn’t think it was ‘fabulous’. I think that might have been because it was novella length, and I hadn’t read the previous books in the Hard Ink series before reading about Jeremy and Charlie, so I missed the heavy build up of their relationship, that’s absolutely my bad and not Ms Kaye’s. I saw this book listed as a preorder when I was browsing her Hark Ink series, loved the premise and one clicked.

I was NOT disappointed. On His Knees was terrific. This next instalment of the Blasphemy series can be easily read as a stand-alone, this sexy m/m romp more than made up for that earlier m/m wobble in the terrific Hard Ink series, mostly because this book had everything including a sweet though short epilogue. I know there might be some who will complain that Jamie flew through his BDSM 101 intro way too fast, but I don’t care, I loved EVERYTHING about his story, his sexual awakening, his self-awareness and yearning to explore what he was coming to realise was his masochist kink, absolutely everything about him was sexy as hell and smoking hot, particularly when he and Alex took vanilla and launched that snowball into outta space.

As you’d expect with a virtual coming out book, there was some low angst around that, which was emotional as hell to read, and thankfully Alex and Jamie were able to fix their hurts, otherwise I fear ugly crying might have evolved. Inenjoyed this book SO MUCH i’m going back to read the others books in the Blasphemy series, so that right there is a HUGE compliment, since M/M is my preferred jam.

P.S I can’t wait to read Master Leo’s story he looks VERY interesting. I love role playing in BDSM and honestly it’s not explored enough in fiction romances, so I can honestly say i’m Super excited about a Dom wanting to play ‘predator games’ with his subs. Fingers crossed it’s a male sub *fans self* that would be so sinfully sexy and mouth-wateringly delicious.

I highly recommend this book for those that love some dirty smoking hot kink with their sexy, M/M romance. 6 Stars.
