I really enjoyed this book for a variety of reasons. The writing was good, the characters were believable and the sex scenes were hot.However, the reason why I'm rating this five stars is that it avoids a number of common bdsm tropes which I find distasteful. No one is demanding immediate, 24/7 submission. Using a safeword does not signal the end of the relationship (only the end of the scene, like it's supposed to). Everyone is treated with respect, the dom acts like a person, not a stereotype.The relationships develop naturally and the characters take the time to figure out what they both want, and what will make them both happy.So I highly recommend this book for people who are looking for a somewhat more realistic bdsm romance.If you're into the Sir Domly Pants type character bossing around a doormat with boobs, then you probably won't like this.
