This was one of the first Annabel Joseph books I read, and I was hooked. It was very easy to connect to the characters, to identify with and relate to them. Sophie was recovering from an abusive relationship, which, granted, not everyone can relate to. But the aftereffects – the body image issues, the pain of loss, the fear of loving again, of giving of yourself because of the risks of being hurt – are so universal that it was easy for me to step into her world and see through her eyes, feel her pain. I think that this story is a beautiful representation of how BDSM can be used to help someone heal. And it doesn’t hurt that Dave was a super hot erotic photographer and experienced Dom who knew how to play a woman’s body. Add Ryan to the mix–Dave’s best friend who comes to visit–and you have yourself one of the hottest ménage scenes ever. This book is one of my top recommends to someone who is starting out in the BDSM/kink erotica genre because it was well written, had an interesting storyline, was sweet, and the sex and BDSM was authentic. And, FYI, keep an extra pair on panties on hand, chances are one will get creamed and there will be need of a backup pair. And some batteries.
