Review: Short Erotic BDSM Power Exchange
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 12 14, 2012
This is the first novelette in The Devil's Kiss trilogy and tells the story of Kayla Sutton whose daughter is suffering from leukaemia and has stopped responding to conventional drugs and now needs a radical new and experimental treatment to stand any chance of survival. It's very expensive and, in absolute desperation, Kayla embezzles the money from the accounts of the company she works for.She's caught red-handed by her boss Gage Channing who gives her a choice - a prison sentence or a BDSM contract to submit to his every whim and desire. A prison sentence would keep her away from her potentially dying daughter so she agrees to the BDSM contract and submits, albeit unwillingly, to Gage. This sets up the story which is mostly Gage dominating Kayla in his home.I love these set-ups - they tick all the right boxes for me. Gage is a sadist dom who has recognised the submissive in Kayla that she doesn't even know is there and is going to take her on a journey. She finds it physically arousing but, emotionally, she manages to remain detached from Gage, even despising him for coercing her in this way.He is a fairly sadistic master but, so far, the BDSM hasn't been too hardcore although it is highly erotic and enjoyable. There's more to this story though - Kayla has been the victim of very violent spousal abuse and carries the physical and emotional scars with her so submitting to bondage and domination is bringing up ugly memories. How Gage responds to this in the second novelette will decide how I feel about him - at the moment, he's not paying enough attention, as a dom, to his submissive's emotional needs but he's not had much of a chance to be fair.Also, one of the Doctors at her daughter's hospital is an extremely handsome-ex and he promises to watch out for her daughter when she can't be around (mostly because she's restrained in Gage's dungeon) so it's kind of hard to tell where the story will lead us next.Despite the fact that this is very short, this is really quite emotionally intense and definitely very HOT. I really enjoy these erotic e-serials and can't wait for part deux!!4 stars dark eroticaDevil's Kiss series reading order1. Ultimatum2. Enslaved - due Jan/Feb 20133. Tbc
