*Copy given for an honest review.*I was psyched when Ms. Silverwood asked me to read her book. I will admit to only skimming the synopsis of the book, but I knew going in it was going to be a kinky capture fantasy story. I didn't, however, realize how deep this book would go into the darker side of taboo erotica.Take Me, Break Me was a new experience for me. I've never read a story this dark where both characters are just starting to explore the darker side of sex. Although there were a few squeamish moments for me (I do not like needles!), the sex scenes were heated and very inventive.Jodie: I loved Jodie's independent nature. She's one of those women who can admit to a desire of being tied up and at mercy to a man, and still be completely herself. But she does have her limits, like doing the dishes. At first.Klaus: Poor Klaus is roped into a situation he finds extremely uncomfortable. No way does he want Jodie "playing captive" with another man, one who might take advantage of her vulnerability. So he agrees to help her with her project, but things just aren't working out the way they expected it to. Until Klaus takes the reins and decides it's time to do things his way or no way at all.At first I really wasn't sold Klaus. He didn't seem to have much of an interest in Jodie, besides keeping her safe and maybe some left over attraction from their former relationship. But the Dom in Klaus emerges when he takes control of the capture fantasy and realizes how much he likes pushing Jodie's limits.This book is not for the squeamish, faint of heart, or those who can't handle edgeplay. There were some hard limits for me as well, but Ms. Silverwood's writing is so intriguing, and she made it so hot, I just had to keep going!
