3.0 out of 5 stars If you like female tops then this is for you...., November 5, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Punishment for the Crime (Paperback)

If you are a heterosexual and are looking for erotica then this is not for you. The stories were entertaining as long as your expectations were that all the stories were about females ruling. That wasn't clear to me from the few lines written about the book. A few of the stories ended with a twist which was a nice surprise but for the most part there was nothing exciting in the reading. Other writers such as Anne Rice have tackled the same subject matter. If you are a novice female top then you might pick up a few tips.
