My initial impressions of this novella? `Well, that's one heck of a misunderstanding, but, wow! Just wow!'This is a very well written novella. The author has got everything laid out in a logical and captivating way. Through her exquisitely put together scenes she paints an extremely vivid portrait of the encounter between these two star-crossed and situationally bound characters. I especially appreciate the fact that the author illustrates the difference between a Dom\sub relationship and an abusive relationship. It brings a great deal of things into stark clarity.This novella has 2 very well developed main characters. Even with the short page count you get to know them intimately (no pun intended, but hey...). I really appreciate that the author's main characters aren't necessarily model-esque. Her female lead is a woman of typical means and typical physique, even if she has a difficult past. It makes the story seem all the more real.Overall this was a completely captivating and very vivid novella that introduces you to extremely different yet quite compatible characters. The author tackles some difficult topics in a way that makes you think, while introducing you to the real world of Doms and subs. I couldn't put it down and definitely can't wait to read the sequel.Please note that I received this novel free of charge from the author in exchange for an honest review
