Altho' my impressions of Ms. Violet's novel were entirely positive, I decided, upon receiving Amazon's computer generated invitation to write a review, to re-read the book . . . just to refresh my thoughts.  I'm glad I did.  This novel is so charmingly written, and Mason, the protagonist, so appealing, I had somehow skimmed over some of the author's deeper meanings.  While these 3 characters are not victims of serious abuse, nor traditional brutality, they are, nonetheless, damaged in ways that families and society can do . . . .This is a fine menage story, and has a nice streak of domination, and plenty of sex.  But, it is a lot more.  It is a warm and compelling story of need, of fear of intimacy, and of developing trust.  Trust comes hard.  But it comes.  Strongly recommended.
