Review: Although handled sensitively in each story...must be able to read about sexual abuse

"Sin"  3 StarsAnya is a virgin college student about to graduate who decides to make extra cash waitressing in a strip club.  Sin is the owner of the club who has a strict policy of not getting involved with his employees.  Will Sin be able to resist Anya?  The story was ok but it felt a little cold.  It was nice to get the story from both main characters, though.  Note:  Sexual abuse occurs in the story but is written about in a sensitive way."Romance Book Club"  4 StarsJessie and her book club take a field trip to a BDSM club to try to better understand a book they are reading.  Chase owns the club and takes a special interest in Jessie.  Will Jessie be able to live in his world?  Michelle Hughes did a great job helping you feel the warmth of the characters. The story is filled with interactions between them. I look forward to reading this one again in the future.  Note:  A character in the book is abused but the content is handled sensitively."Scarlett's Temptation"  2 StarsScarlett is a 24 year old virgin who is thrown into the world of BDSM.  Rhett is a Dominant who offers to train Scarlett for 10 days so she can decide if the lifestyle is for her.  Will Rhett and the lifestyle be what she needs or will it break her?  Their were parts of the story I liked but most of the time I didn't like Rhett.  Even more so, I felt the story didn't show how or why Scarlett or Rhett could fall in love with the other.  Who I really did like was Scarlett's best friend, Janie, and Janie's significant other, David.  Note:  This story includes a BDSM rape scene role play that could be bothersome for some readers."Angela's Salvation"  4 StarsFive years ago, Angela ran away from home to get away from her sexually abusive step-father.  She is now a talented vocalist with a lot of baggage but decides to try out for a star search reality show to try to make it big.  Nolan has the power to help her career but has similar baggage of his own.  He knows she has to overcome her past in order be successful so he decides to help her.  What happens when he makes one wrong decision out of caring for her?  I didn't think I would like this story with it getting into a star search type of story but I really enjoyed it.  The characters were really likeable and the content about each of the abusive backgrounds was handled sensitively."Undercover Submissive"  4 StarsCaycee is willing to do anything to find her twin sister and get her back.  Dylan trains submissives and knows where Caycee's sister can be found.  Will Caycee be able to do everything a submissive must do in public if it means getting her sister back?  This is a fast paced story that keeps you reading.  I enjoyed the story overall but there were aspects of the story that I didn't care for in a romance story.  Note:  This story also involves sexual abuse.
