I originally bought Safeword: Quinacridone when Ms. Blevins put it on sale. She did warn us quite clearly that this isn't for the faint of heart. I'm going to second that. If you don't like hardcore kink, don't read this, but if you can push your boundaries and want to read a beautiful love story with some consensual yet pretty hardcore kinkiness, than give this a try.This is a beautiful love story at its core. It follows Cara and Travis's story for over two years. It's not an instant meet and fall in love story, and I loved that about it. They both have some extreme kinks and they aren't even exactly the same kinks, they have to learn to mesh them together and with Travis's guidance and loving attention they do.There are some wild and crazy things in this book, but somehow Ms. Blevins not only got me to be ok with them, she got me to understand how hot they could be in the right context and with the right people.  I definitely pushed some personal limits reading this but I still couldn't put the book down. I just kept reading, I had to know that they would work things out and finally be together.I thought I had read BDSM books before this, and I have, but they were definitely milder. This book introduced me to the darker side, and I have to say I loved it. I've read a few others by Ms. Blevins and in my mind this is definitely pushes boundaries the most of the ones I've read. Even if this seems like it might be too much for you after you read the warning, then I strongly urge you to try another of her books. EspeciallySafeword: Matte, I really loved that one and it's much tamer.This is a great love story, I can't say I want to be Cara or Travis for that matter, but I would gladly call them friends. I look forward to many more books by Ms. Blevins in the future.Originally published [...]
