Evelyn's Journey by Melinda Barron

Newspaper editor Evelyn Barkley has isolated herself in the tiny Colorado town of Clearwater for three years, trying to get over a bad relationship. But one night at a collaring ceremony near Denver, she discovers that Lieutenant Logan Hendricks, a Clearwater cop who has always pushed the wrong buttons for her, is a Dom without a sub.

Despite her misgivings, Evelyn agrees to submit to Logan, who finds her ‘dungeon’ sorely lacking. But he has a solution: gifts of ropes, clips, clamps and other assorted toys that will make her Valentine’s Day birthday very happy indeed. Evelyn quickly discovers that she and Logan are a perfect fit, especially when she’s tied up for their mutual pleasure. All they have to do is keep their toys a secret from nosy townspeople… and find a murderer in the process.
