So, um, I picked up this book knowing I had been warned. The recommendation came to me with the following statement,“One of the only times I have seen strong kink used to advance the plot in a completely satisfying and unexpected way. But this is definitely a case where I'd say ‘know your limits.’"I made it to the end of installment three and will admit to skimming the last installment to see where this mind game was going, but I will say that I think the warning was highly accurate and honest.Waites had me engaged with the first line. Well written, well conceptualized, this is a solid work. My limits were sketchy when I picked this series up, they aren’t now.The main character, Daniel/ Danny, in the first three installments at least, delivers a plethora of very intuitive and raw, honest inner thoughts.“I’m chasing sensation now, every one that I can get. I’ve never felt like this before; never had this capacity to feel every little thing. I’m drunk on it.”“Last night. I don’t even recognize myself from last night.”“At the moment he is the centre of my universe, but I’m nothing to him.”“It never even occurs to me to fight, only beg.”“This is more comfortable, more intimate. Like a secret dream, not an ordeal.”“But now shame coils in my guts instead of want.”These cleverly observant lines seem almost too smart to be in a work of this kink. The mind game is smart with a certain element of depravity that I can respect. So where did Waites lose me?“Daddy,” I whisper to him in the gloom as he (expletive) me slowly, the word slipping out before I can stop it.If I were a male, I wouldn’t need a “c*ck cage” to douse any arousal, that line did it quite aptly all on its own. It is followed up with:“ My baby boy.” Archer shudders as he comes inside me.*gags* And now I am sitting in the bucket of ice water. Nope not for me. Looks like Daniel/ Danny isn’t the only one discovering himself with this work. With that my “limits” are now defined and “Daddy kink” is on the other side of the line I have drawn.If you enjoy a smart mind game, a well written work AND  “Daddy kink,” then go grab this steal for $3.99 for the complete series. However, do know your limits
