Review courtesy of Dark Faerie Tales.Quick & Dirty: Steaming *HOT* ménage romance! Dark, intense and creatively written.Opening Sentence: "She's a star, you know."The Review:*Warning: This is a series for mature readers who can handle tough language and sexual situations, i.e. ménage, BDSM, and male/male.* Naya is a dancer who likes her sex a little bit rough. Unfortunately for her, her partner Daniel just can't bring himself to give Naya the kind of pain that she needs. They have hired a lot of female Doms in the past to give her the release she needs. A new job leads Naya and Daniel in a different direction with a different partner.Club Devant is looking for a new dancer. Daniel knows that his fiance, Naya, is good enough to work for Declan Shaw's club. Daniel works for Declan as his money man and he knows the club is headed for trouble if Declan doesn't turn the situation around. He hopes that his sexy fiance can help with that.Naya knows from the moment that she dances with Remy that he can give her something she needs sexually, dominance. She wants him in the bedroom but Naya has always been dominated by females and she doesn't want to upset Daniel with her revelation. Lucky for her, Daniel saw the way Remy and Naya danced together and invites Remy over for a session.Daniel and Naya discover more about themselves with Remy than they ever thought possible. As a result they want to include Remy in their everyday relationship, but as always jealousy rears it's ugly little head and Remy believes it's too good to be true while Daniel and Naya prove their love for each other and Remy.Daniel and Naya are very open about their relationship to each other. They communicate their thoughts and feelings and because of that they have a great relationship. Naya and Daniel are tough when they want to be but when Remy flips that switch they are submissive in their own ways. Naya likes the high and often gets lost in her pleasure but Daniel still keeps an eye on her to make sure she is okay and often pisses off Remy in the process.I really did enjoy Daniel and Naya and their relationship. They were never hateful to each other. It was easy to understand Daniel not wanting to cause Naya pain. There were a few moments when it felt like the relationship could have turned bad but with their easy communication, they were able to get through it.Chains and Canes is a hot and steamy book. There is also a lot of emotional baggage to handle. Chains and Canes really was a wonderful novel in terms of the relationship and that Naya was a wonderfully strong female character. I fell in love with all these characters and really wished them the best. If you want to try something a little different I would recommend this erotic novel. It is the second novel in the Club Devant series but this novel really just focuses on the couple so the first novel Lead and Follow doesn't necessarily need to be read in order to understand Chains and Canes. Although it may help to understand aspects of the Club more clearly.FTC Advisory: Katie Porter graciously provided me with a copy of Chains and Cains. No goody bags, sponsorships, "material connections," or bribes were exchanged for my review.
