Editorial Reviews

Review
"Celebrating sexual power is what it's all about...those who know how to give and receive ultimate sexual pleasure through domination are the stars in these steamy tales...buy(ing) them together to get the ultimate view from the top." -- Penthouse Forum, Guilty Pleasures, July 2007

Explorations of dominants and their relationships with those who submit to them are also on display in....She's On Top...the tops here do it because they are with someone who understands, trusts and (more often than not) loves them. She's On Top has the dommes taking centre stage, and offers up such treasts as Tara Alton's Pinch, where a woman has a surprisingly kinky encounter in her office lift, Noelle Keely's Ottoman Empress, in which the heroine discovers how satisfying it is to use her yoga-loving husband as a footstool and Kate Dominic's The Queening Chair, which can only be described as a cunnilingus apocalypse. Truly a pair of masterful anthologies. -- Forum UK Vol. 1 Issue No. 8

Rachel Kramer Bussel does an excellent job in selecting hot, unique stories with oomph. By "oomph," I mean that these are the kinds of stories that you will remember after you finish reading them. You'll remember them after you've removed your slippery fingers from your own personal panties (or shorts), put away your toys and gone back to your lives. These are sex-stories that you'll keep thinking about long after the orgasm has passed -- Jane's Guide April 2007

Rachel Kramer Bussel's done it again; brought us a delightful collection of slightly twisted, but always hot little stories. These companion books delve into the shadows of Dominance and submission from both a male and female point of view...Part of living these types of lifestyles is admitting to yourself that you want it, then accepting the role you choose; blissful submission or the responsibility of controlling the scene. Whether you're exploring, confirming, or expanding your interest in Domination and submission, you will find that Rachel Kramer Bussel has assembled quite the collection of pieces from some very well-known and downright dirty authors. -- Cleansheets May 2007

She's on Top, Rachel Kramer Bussel's latest collection of 18 tantalising tales, introduces the reader to women who wield, damsels who dominate and babes who were born to bully. Donna George Storey, "Suit and Tie," begins the anthology with her trademark brand of hard-hitting panache and style. A single-minded protagonist; an easily manipulated boss; and a story that's hot enough to melt icecaps. Debra Hyde, "By a Firm Hand," gives a gloriously gratuitous glimpse into the marital bliss that can only come when a committed disciplinarian weds a not-too reluctant sub. Saskia Walker, as stimulating and wicked as always with "Inner Vixen," shows how one woman discovers her dominant nature and learns to use it to best effect -- Erotica Readers & Writers Association

Product Description
Turning the tables on rigid gender roles, the stories in She’s on Top honor the Amazon, the dominatrix, the handcuff-toting, whip-wielding she-devil of the male bottom’s deepest dreams. Employing every item in their bag of tricks, from strap-ons to metal cinches, these hot dommes like nothing better than teasing and tormenting their devoted subjects – often at the same time. With stories by some of the best writers in the field of BDSM erotica such as Stan Kent, Debra Hyde, and Saskia Walker, She’s on Top shows that pleasure’s best when dispensed by a firm female hand.

5.0 out of 5 stars Playful and downright nasty!, March 21, 2007
Yay! A collection of female domination stories that women (and men) can actually read without rolling their eyes! As a woman who likes to be "on top," I'm always in search of fresh reading material for entertainment as well as new ideas for playtime. Many women prefer stories that don't just cater to the usual male-centered cliche' Femme Domme fantasies, but are still every bit as nasty, and this book fits the bill. Rachel Kramer Bussel has chosen modern pieces that avoid the porno pitfalls, and that will appeal to both men and women, curious types and seasoned players alike. And since it's all about female dominance, no more skipping around from story to story looking for something of interest.

"She's on Top" is a fun and wild read with a variety of play styles and personalities represented. I especially enjoyed the dominatrix piece, and the cover photo is gorgeous - inspirational in and of itself! Now where did I put my 6" stilettos and male submissive again?

5.0 out of 5 stars She's On Top sizzles!, May 23, 2007
She's On Top is a collection of stories showcasing women in a dominant erotic role with men as their subservients. Despite great advancements in
our social development, our culture is still permeated with sexism and misogyny. That being the case, a book of stories about women taking the lead in the bedroom (and elsewhere) is a refreshing treat. The collection sizzles with promise and potential and fulfills it all in a big way. Much credit to editor Rachel Kramer Bussel for assembling such a fantastic group of stories.

Among my favorites:

Saskia Walker's "The Inner Vixen" describes a very private encounter that unfolds in a very public place. A submissive man senses the
heroine's long to dominate even before she does, and guides her with himself as the offering on the altar of her superiority. With his help, she sheds her chrysalis of conventionality and becomes a radiant (and
whip-wielding) butterfly.

"Working Late" by Andrea Dale is an extremely hot story about sex over webcams that ends with a mind-blowing twist worthy of The Twilight Zone.

The editor's own "His Just Rewards" shows a heroine who can't physically
overpower her larger, stronger partner but more than compensates with
intelligence, erotic cunning and sheer force of will.

"Room 2201" by N.T. Morley explores just how far a man will go to prove
his subservience to his domme. He consents to being ravaged by another man purely so she can have the pleasure of watching.

Teresa Noelle Roberts' "Mark of Ownership" is a wistfully poignant tale of
two lovers who must part and never see each other again - and gives new erotic meaning to the phrase "something to remember me by".

Lovely "Waiting for Me" by MinaRose portrays a dominant wife and submissive husband team who use their sexual dynamic as a salve for the
frustrations of daily life.

My absolute favorite story in She's On Top is Lisette Ashton's "Victoria's
Hand." Set in London in 1890, the story is a small masterpiece of erotic
surprises in which a young woman is proposed to by an earnest young
gentleman. He finds the tables turned on him when this "proper" young
maid shows him exactly who will be in charge of their potential relationship. "Victoria's Hand" ends beautifully with a wicked
laugh-out-loud punch line.

All in all, She's On Top is a fantastic collection. I am excited to read
its companion volume, HE'S ON TOP: Erotic Stories of Male Domination and
Female Submission, also edited by Rachel Kramer Bussel (ISBN: 1573442704)

5.0 out of 5 stars Power games for everyone!, May 16, 2007
Okay, I might as well show my cards right away. I have a story in this book, but that means I'm especially glad it's GOOD and hot. In anthologies, like real estate, location matters. I'm not a BDSM insider, but I think we all respond to control and surrender in our erotic lives, and the variety of stories and flavors of power play give this book a broad appeal. (Come on, admit it, you've fantasized about giving yourself up to a stern, but knowing mistress!) RKB has done a great job of assembling sexy, smart and often very witty pieces. My favorites include Lisette Ashton's "Victoria's Hand"--what's not to love about a story with a petticoat-wearing dominatrix and an archbishop?--Noelle Keely's artfully constructed "Ottoman Empress" and Adelaide Clark's luscious "Feeder" which will satisfy more appetites than one. But really, they're all good. I've got a lot of erotica books on my shelf--this is a favorite.
