I admit that this is the first book I've read by this author and I only purchased it because it was .99 cents.  I really liked the heroine, Lucy. She was spunky, funny and willing to go after what she wanted. She used to have daredevil tendencies which she had put to rest a few years ago. Then there is Matt, the hero. I liked Matt and felt for him, but he was a little creepy for me. It just seemed to me that the author thought "hey, bdsm in a book is hot right now, let me use that as a premise". Within the King of that genre, FSOG, the hero was generally somewhat tender with her afterwards, as their relationship moved on.  There wasn't a lot of tenderness demonstrated on his part in this book. Lucy was somewhat tender though she seemed confused as to whether they had a relationship or if she was just a booty call. Matt was a very confused man who needed to get some counseling.  Nothing wrong with wanting or needing control, but the "healing of his demons" in this book seemed rushed to me. He just seemed to want to slap or spank something frequently. To tell her when she could speak and sometimes, all she was allowed to say.  Lucy liked it and was down with it, don't get me wrong, but there was no "vanilla" in this book, nothing routine.  Just, this is what I like in sex, what I need and WOW, you can take it! AND you seem to like it!  It seemed like a bad attempt at FSOG.  Let's roll three books in a series into one and call it a wrap.  To me, it needed more molding or embellishing to flesh Matt out.I didn't hate it, but I didn't love it either.  I have however, bought two more books in this series based on posted reviews.  Maybe I'll like them better.
