5.0 out of 5 stars
Real-life fantasy,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Passive Voice (Paperback)
Yes, I enjoy books like The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty and Exit to Eden, but I much prefer even my fantasies to have a bit more realism in them. I want to be able to truly believe that they _could_ happen to me. This book was PERFECT for that. I also like that the author makes it clear that D/s does not necessarily mean the same thing as S/M! AND that the main character does not spend ALL of her time in the throes of ecstasy. She states that it's simply all she's sharing in the book since everyone knows what normal day-to-day activities are like. Overall, the best erotica I've read so far.

A BONDAGE lovers dream.....,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Passive Voice (Paperback)
This is a delightfully entertaining book for hardcore bondage lovers. It is told in a semi detached manner by a woman as she experiences different erotic bondage escapades. There is a great deal of detail in most of the described stories except when it gets to the sexual aspects. At times there is a myriad of details and others she quite coyly states 'this isn't that kind of book' and provides no other details other than the deed was done. I gave the book only 3 stars for false advertisement. The book opens with Victoria deciding to give herself to Howard as a birthday present and she gets herself pierced in a part of her anatomy that would make most of us women shudder. But there is no lead or further explanation as to why she thought that Howard would appreciate her gift. Howard not only appreciates her gift but takes it to a higher level immediately. There is no slowly growing to accept the ideas of eroticism and bondage. The author goes full steam ahead as soon as Howard locks her up on page 2. She becomes game for any and everything so this notion of discovery goes out the window in a hurry. We are fed scene after scene of delectable bondage scenes and mock rapes etc. that are quite entertaining. There is little else to the book so if you are expecting to read a fully fleshed out novel then think again. The author is quite honest about that as you read through in that they fully acknowledge just presenting story after story of different bondage scenes to the reader. At times it was a bit tedious and repetitive but for the most part I read it with a smile and appreciated the frequent humor. By the way I was very glad to see the author take the time to distinguish between dominance and submission and sadism and masochism. There is a big difference between the two that is often overlooked by a lot of writers. Bondage is definitely in the d/s camp and not the s/m camp.So if you like your bondage straight up without ice then this is for you.

Certainly had it's moments.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Passive Voice (Paperback)
I found myself reading this book pretty quickly, because it was very entertaining, erotic and lots of fun. Some chapters tended to drag a bit through repitition, but most were arrousing. I particularly liked the chapters about the "soire", the wedding gift and the rape fantasy. I would recommend this if you're looking for a fun, easy, and erotic read. Note to the author for future stories (if any) - use the word "freak" less often. I mean really...
