This book does nothing to further the reader's education regarding the Ds/SM/BD lifestyle. Rather, the story portrayed here tells of a woman with no direction or self esteem. To claim she is a dominant is an affront to the very word. She has no personal power of her own. She is just a sad little girl who has no conception of what it means to internalize either Dominance or submission. Don't waste your money on stupidity.

Talk about low self-esteem, the majority of her life is filled with being submissive and needy. This book tells about a woman who is a mental and emotional masochist. She spends the majority of her D/s experience as a lifestyle and Professional submissive. She also gets permanently marked on her buttocks by a Master who meant nothing to her. WOW! Talk about not thinking it through. All of a sudden she bucks against her master, grabs a whip, put on a corset, rents a dungeon, put an ad in a magazine and TAH DAH! She's Mistress Jacqueline the powerful dominatrix who is very successful and makes lots of money! *sigh* If it was only that simple.

The shocking part of this book was in the last chapter when she admits that she likes being Dominant but craves submissive activities. **gasp** Noooooo!

I believe she should have stayed a professional submissive, this way she won't betray her true tendencies.

I gave the book a two because it took a lot of guts to tell the world your flaws, however, some things are better left unsaid.

If this book was turned into a movie provided that the title would be "Whips and Kisses: Parting the Leather Curtain
by submissive jacqueline" I would give this book 5 stars if she stayed a submissive.

This book is full of drugs, sex, mental abuse and low self esteem stories. If you like to read stories about the weak and willing, this is the book for you.

If you want to read a story about the making of a REAL Dominatrix, I suggest you seek else where.

I found this to be and excellent book about a wonderful Women who shares with us Her life from early childhood to the ultimate realization of who She is, A Goddess. It is an interesting journey that will suprise you. If you are interested in submissive and dominant life styles, this is one book that you should check out. If you are looking for a Mistress, this is also a Great book to assist you in your insight as to where you are and where you want to go in S/M world.

A housewife turns Pro & tells of BDSM encounters

I'm not into the scene, but I met Mistress Jacqueline through our mutual friend Xaviera Hollander, the original Happy Hooker, and found Jacqueline to be one of the nicest people outside of her business! As an English director once told me, in England "it's not what you do, it's who you are". Her book is interesting in the fact that it's a biography, and (of course) all of our lives are fascinating on the talk show circuit.
