The first time doesn’t have to be grit-your-teeth-and-bear-it, not with Kristoff St. Michaels around anyway!This story is set in the future, 2135 to be precise, and women are now trained in submission and then auctioned off to be married. Once bought, often for ridiculously high prices, they are at the mercy of their new husbands. Their lot in life has been carved out for them.Veronica Dubois is one of these such virgins and as she stands naked on the platform at the auctions, waxed, and creamed and primped to look her best, she is understandably nervous. What if a cruel and mean man purchases her? Her life will be nothing but misery.But fate is kind to Veronica and she is snapped up by the handsome Kristoff and whisked off to his mansion. Kristoff may be kind but he is also older than Veronica and huge! Luckily though all goes to plan…I really enjoyed this book by Ms Snow. Lately I’ve had a run of so-so books but this one caught my attention and kept me reading long after I should have turned the light off and snuggled down to sleep. Why? Because it is well written, the characters are believable despite the slightly unbelievable premise and the sex is h…h…hot! Some really unique lines and descriptions that I haven’t come across before of an act written about a million times.Also there is nothing else to distract from what the plot is all about. No annoying extra characters or murder mystery – you get my drift – it is just about Veronica and Kristoff spending their first night together in the most deliciously sexy of ways.So if you want a short-ish read, that’s full of sex, a little different and artfully crafted, The First Time might just be the book for you!Originally posted at Long and Short Reviews
