Taylor's books seem to run the range from not bad (Private Games) to terribleWild Knights (Erotica A paranormal erotic menage) (Passion Unbound).  ThisFifty Shades of Grey: Book One of the Fifty Shades Trilogyknockoff has its feet firmly in the terrible camp.Bristol is a young and vaguely characterized woman who is reunited with a friend of her deceased mother, "Uncle" Shane.  Shane is mega-rich and super-sexy . . . and he's also a dominant.  They have a firecracker date and then he shares with her the ominous news that he is DANGEROUS.  Dangerous as in "My rec room is a full-on dungeon."  But he's so sexy that Bristol just can't resist.  Unlike "50 Shades," Shanes' un-vanilla side doesn't really come out in this short intro.  They have two sexual encounters and it's . . . I dunno, pretty normal.  Shane just seems like a forceful guy who likes a little dirty talk and has way overbought toys he has no real interest in using.Of course, Bristol totally freaks out and Shane comes running to show her that he rilly, rilly cares.  True love after one date?  Maybe, I don't know.  Clearly we're supposed to want to buy part two so that we can learn more, but I feel like I've already read this story before . . . and in a much better version.
