I have become so leery of 4 & 5 star reviews that I try to be very discriminating when assigning that high of a review myself.  For me, a 4 or 5 star rating is only for books that I consider keepers, that I become totally involved in, that are orginal, have a interesting plot and no major editing problems.  This book was that and more.One reviewer had mentioned that they enjoyed reading about the internal thought and emotion processes of Dirk & Amelia which made me a little wary of purchasing this book.  Usually I find that a lot of writing concerning the characters' thoughts usually distract from the reading and slow the story down.  This was not the case in this book.  The internal dialogs were thought provoking, adding to the flow of the story, enhancing the reading experience.Pro:Arousing - it does have elements of mild BDSM and candid descriptions of the sexual actThought Provoking - there was one part that made me uncomfortable and I could understand and relate to how Amelia was feeling but when Dirk explained the psychological reasoning behind the action - it felt like not only did the "light blub" go on in Amelia's head but also in my own.Innovative - I've never read such a novel that explained so well as to why the characters were drawn to this life styleHEA - I want and need my HEAMy library consists of about every genre there is from Sci-Fi, Westerns, Paranormal to BDSM.  A series by Cherise Sinclair got me into the BDSM genre and in a way this author reminds me a lot of Cherise.  The book is a well written novel that envolves the reader and keeps your interest all the way to the very last page with a HEA.
