Another sexy sizzler..., March 1, 2009
What. In the world!? I honestly think that was the first thought that went through my head as I started to read this book. Yoyin is... beyond words! Saying that she's as spoiled as a banana in Africa in August wouldn't come close to describing this woman. Allison has taken her dysfunctional, sexually maladjusted, crazy women drama to a new level with this chick! She thinks, acts, performs, talks, and just KNOWS the world needs to bow down and obey her. Fortunately for Yoyin because she's extremely rich, good looking, and sexually uninhibited... it usually does. She orders people around like she's the queen of Queen B. and you can't help but laugh (and cringe) at some of her Jennifer Lopez-like demands.
Yoyin is also sexually dangerous. I don't mean sexually dangerous like Stacey Dash in stilettos holding a can of whipped cream and wearing a "come do me smile". :-) No. I mean sexually dangerous like Mike Tyson who just got out of jail after 10 years and was stuck on an island with that Stacey Dash babe I was just talking about! Anyway...Yoyin gets a ticket of sorts to come to an island that will fulfill all of her sexual desires. She sets off and begins a journey that will have you wondering. I say wondering because it seems to me that as sexually free as Yoyin was; she was NEVER satisfied. Maybe THAT was the reason for her insane behavior.
Either way, I *almost* felt sorry for her. She is a tortured soul that was begging for pleasure/release but didn't know how to go about it the correct way. Yoyin is introduced to people, places, and things that help her to "get there". The interesting part about her journey is WHO she meets and WHAT they do. This also wouldn't be a true Allison Hobbs novel if there wasn't a WTF type twist in here. Well guess what? There are two! One had me scratching my head because not only did it come from left field, but I didn't even know I was in the ballpark! The other one... the other one was so bad that I, literally, had to stop reading because the pain of the character was too real. Way to real.
`Disciplined' had the brutal and frank sexuality that I've come to love from Allison but it wasn't her "usual" brutal and frank sexuality. I've been trying to pinpoint what it is and I can't. If I had to guess it would be because Yoyin wasn't sexually sated that left me wanting as well. If it doesn't make sense, sorry. I don't how else to explain it because like I said I'm not 100% sure either. All I know is that this is another one of Allison Hobbs freaky pieces of work and you would do yourself some good by getting some... I mean "it"... getting it! :-)
**On a personal note**. I just want to say that Allison Hobbs is an author who I have grown to love and appreciate. There is no greater joy for a book lover than to write one of your favorite authors and then have them write you back. I don't mean some standard form "Thank you for reading one of my books" type letter either. I mean actually taking the time to read, answer, and hold a mini-conversation with you. THAT is class and THAT is Allison Hobbs. I wrote her after her first book `Pandora's Box' was released and we've enjoyed a friendly relationship ever since. Keep in mind that this woman has more deadlines than most publishing houses, but she always finds the time to say hello if I write. That means more to me than she will ever, EVER know. Sista' could never work at the Post Office though (wink) hahahahahahahahahahaha but I will forever love this lady. Ok, enough of that sappy crap; quit reading this review and get down to your local bookstore and get this book!

Fantasy Island...., February 24, 2009
What if there was a place where all of your sexual desires could be fulfilled? What if you could live out every fantasy and x-rated fetish you ever wanted? What if that place existed..would go?
If you want to know what that would be like,dive into the pages of "Disciplined" and travel to the island of Ka-le'a, located not far from Honolulu, and join spoiled millionaire heiress Yokin Ayikade as she journies to the island after accepting an exclusive invite. Yoyin is so used to getting what she wants, and she plans on getting her "freak on", on the island! Yoyin is so outrageous, this chick even has two personal man servants and buys Louboutins like they are BOGO at Payless lol! What will happen when Yoyin, a self proclaimed nympo arrives in Ka-le'a? Will she get her way like always, or will Yoyin finally learn some discipline? Remember anything goes on the island...
Allsion Hobbs delivers another erotic tale filled with some of the steamiest romps you may ever read!! 5 stars!!!

(4.5 Stars) A Heavy Dose Of Steamy Sex!, March 19, 2009
Yoyin is a spoiled heiress who always gets what she wants, especially when it comes to her wild sexual fantasies. She even has two male servants that cater to her every whim at the drop of a dime. Yoyin thinks that she will get to live her deepest hedonistic fantasies when she receives an invitation to a beautiful island. She soon finds out that trip is not just for her own pleasure but to learn a life lesson designed specifically for her. Will she become a willing participant, or will she just give in to her own desires?
Disciplined is an intriguing novella by Allison Hobbs. Hobbs takes the reader on a journey into the life of a privileged young woman. Yoyin is a character that you will definitely dislike from the start of this story but ultimately sympathize with by the end of the book. Hobbs did a wonderful job of showing how a dangerous ancient practice affected Yoyin's destructive, wanton behavior. You will see how her time on the island will change her life forever. Disciplined has a healthy dose of steamy sex and drama that will be a sure delight for any erotica fan.
