I was not expecting to like this. I was wrong.

Just because I'm not into D/s smexy stuff, doesn't mean I don't find it entertaining to read about. One must broaden their horizons and junk. In fact, I'd go as far as to say this is what FSoG should have been, it was down right empowering to read about a women taking control what and how she wanted it. Now, if you like your smut chock full of emotionally crippled men with a penchant for stalking, a knack for all kinds of abuse and a complete lack of communication skills, this is not the book for you!

I believe this is the "right time right place" kind of book. I don't know about you, but I have to be in the right frame of mind to read smut/romance books. Aside from the bit of cheese in the bginning and the fairly predictable ending, this was a home run! It's well written, and the rose colored glasses by which everyone lives isn't overwhelming. I don't know when I'll reach for the 2nd installment, but I'm sure it won't be too long from now. Enjoy!

Brigid I think it was written for that reason Erica. This is that popular blogger Jenny Trout's book. I read somewhere she wrote it as a serial just for experimental fun. Maybe I'll try it out sometime.

Beatrix Great review, Erica!
And you're so right, I also have to be in the mood to read smut/romance. :)


Erica Ravenclaw @Brigid - Really? I had no idea! I went into it blind, but that's a fantastic reason to have written these, and that makes me like it even more!

@Melanie - Welcome! Do you think you will read it too? Let me know if you do and we can BR the 2nd one.

@Igor - You mean, die from too much sex?

@Beatrix - Thanks! I find them to be wonderful pallet cleansers LOL!
