Ok, let me start off with this comment, I was really looking forward to reading this book. So much so that I almost purchased it directly from the publisher because I didn't want to wait the two to three months delay that the publisher has before they hit Amazon. Let me tell you, it was not worth the wait. I read a lot of erotic bdsm novels. The other three in the series are ok & hot (they have their plot holes, but they are hot enough that I can over look a few). The connection to Club Esoteria in this novel is lame and could have definitely been built up stronger (like a 'Training to be a Dom' course for the two guys held at Esoteria {being in their shoes when they first try to be Doms to her ~ the course was mentioned but not executed within the novel}, have them experience one night together at the club, I don't know- something more than what was there).There were several points to this novel that annoyed me:-The insistence of people around this girl saying that she wasn't really a submissive and she just wanted the connection or whatever.-The stupid bad guy -arrgh! This bad guy could have been SO much better.-The gay / not gay / but actually bi, overall lack of communication between the main characters; a very common plot device in mmf novels.-The guys 'acting' like Doms to her but not being Doms, knowing diddly about being Doms/bdsm, but they still try to 'act the part' for her sake.I think my overall frustration and the reason why it got a 2 stars is that I wanted this novel to be better. It didn't get a one star because there were a few scenes that were hot. I felt it within the novel where with more time, better editing, and sharper focus it could have been a much better novel.I felt like it needed more character focus and consistency within the thoughts/attitude of the characters, overall better character development.
