I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.Five Weeks in December by Blue Kincaid is listed with the labels BDSM, Erotica and Romance. What Five Weeks in December actually is, is a sweet romance about two people who learn to love themselves and each other through BDSM. I read the story in one sitting because I was charmed by Harry and December and was rooting for them to find their happy ever after.The book starts off with December, a professional submissive, appearing at Harry's front door. Harry hired December to help him get his dominant groove back. But from the first moment, Harry was mesmerized by December. And as he gained his confidence as a Dom and a man, he realized that he had fallen in love with December.In a nice twist from the traditional romance, it is the heroine who pulls back from a long-term commitment. December is wildly attracted to Harry; in fact, he has everything she could ever want in a Master. But December has her own secrets and doubts and while Harry has regained his assurance and poise with her help, she is still convinced that he won't love her once he discovers those secrets.Harry has only five weeks to convince December that what he feels is love and not gratitude for helping him. He sets out to romance and woo her. Well he certainly won me over. In fact, I was just "wild about Harry." His inner strength as he fought for December made him irresistible. There was such sensuality in his every touch and the way he treated December like a prized and precious possession just about did me in.Meanwhile, December was also a fascinating character. After all, what type of woman chooses to become a professional submissive? She certainly wasn't a doormat. In fact, December was independent, smart and a whole lot of sassy. As Harry slowly knocked down her walls, it was obvious what made him fall in love.While Five Weeks in December may not be your traditional dark BDSM book, that doesn't mean the sex wasn't hot. There is one mind blowing sex that will make you wish you were December. I especially loved that even in the midst of a flogging, the love Harry felt for December came through in every stroke.We were also introduced to Harry's friends who I am sure will be the focus of other books in the Twisted & Tied series. Each man was so delightful in their own right that I'm not sure who I want to read about next.This is the first book I have read by Ms. Kincaid and I was impressed. Five Weeks in December is a terrific start to a new series. If this first book is any indication, it's going to be a wonderful series and I can hardly wait for the next one.
