(More customer reviews)This was an okay read. I wish the stories were not so short. It seems like there was more missing. I don't know about others who have read it but it seemed typos were found on every two pages or so.

Pursuit of Glory Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was pleasantly surprised when I read Pursuit of Glory. Instead of being just another spanking story, this was a story with spanking in it. Renny is a smart, educated and somewhat immature 18 year who has dreams of glory in her head. Pretty much everything she does is so that she will receive the accolades she feels her actions deserve. Her adventures after stowing away on Admiral Liam's ship are smart and so much fun! There are plenty of spankings for the enthusiasts, but they are woven into a great story, and not just there for the sake of spanking. You will be entranced by the characters and the story.

"Fifty, sixty swats. Surely the man was insane! How could he keep doing this to her? How could he keep hurting her, when he claimed he loved her? He was crazy! She was crazy. This was wrong, so wrong!And then at last he stopped.Larissa coughed and gasped, unable to move. Marco lifted her, settling her on his lap and held her close. She could feel his heart beating - fast and hard. His shirt felt sweat-damp, and she glanced up, expecting to see sweat across his brow. What she did see so surprised her that she was stunned. It was tears, not sweat that trailed down his face. Tears had dampened his shirt. He was weeping almost as hard as she was. She threw her arms around his neck and sobbed for all the pain he had caused. She sobbed for the horrible last two days - starting with the thugs who had accosted her. She sobbed for all the pretty things Marco had told her, because she hadn`t believed him. And she sobbed because, as foolish as it sounded, she loved him."I pray, my sweet, that I never have cause to punish you like that again," he whispered.She hoped so, too. "Now, let me take you home. Perchance after a rest, you`ll feel well enough to accompany me for dinner."She just nodded. It was the safest thing to do. She`d agree to anything he said. She`d let him comfort her, and feed her, and even make love to her. And then tomorrow she`d have to make sure that he never found her again." Seven Chapters!

Sold Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Too short and shallow. He buys the woman, takes her to his cabin, has his way with her, the end. Disappointing.

"On the first day that he did leave her loose in the house, with orders and supplies to have made dinner by the time he got home, Carolyn did what she felt she had to do. She had to make some sort of effort to escape. She couldn't just accept what had happened to her. All she wanted was to get away from him - she hadn't thought much further than that. She didn't even know what direction to travel in, but figured that Shepherdstown was roughly due East of where she was.She hoped."

Kept Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I stumbled across this novel, and thought that it had an interesting theme to it. I am a fairly open-minded person and enjoy a lot of different genres.
At first, the plot was really intriguing. Definitely not you your usual boy meets girl. But the more I read, the less I like the book. Reed is a dominating man, with a serious spanking fetish, and I found his character to be decently developed, but Trish fell short. It felt like she vacated the book about 2/3 of the way through. and honestly, I feel like she was a little bit abused by the end, and treated like she didn't have a mind of her own. Yes, she is submissive, but that doesn't make her a child. The author needed to give her more personality and research what it is to be a submissive. She doesn't understand that the submissive is the one in control, not the dominant.

But one of the few things left out of their very special arrangement was that she ended up finding herself over his lap more often than not!

Prima Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)A well-written and thought provoking story about a strong, but sometimes sadistic man and the slave he buys. Both of the lead characters, Joseph and Prima, are extremely likable. Their relationship develops well throughout this story.
More hard-core than other erotica books that I have read, so if this isn't your thing, read something else.
I found myself thinking about this book long after I read it. This is the first book that I have read by this author, but will not be the last.

A plague has devastated the world's society and the government that's left realizes the necessity of rebuilding the population. The few women who survive are enslaved - sold and traded and bred. Owned by their male relatives, they are punished severely for any misdeed - real or perceived.Prima is such a woman - bought and paid for by Joseph, a man who intends to get full use of her, in every conceivable way.Prima is, technically, a post-nuclear (post-plague) genre story that contains extremely harsh, non-consensual scenes of BDSM, anal, and the occasional touch of ageplay.This was originally offered on Bethany's Woodshed, and is also for sale on Best of Bethany's.

The Miscreant and The Master Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)When attempting to write this review I went back to read the editorial review and actually was surprised to read that Ayko was exiled from her community and is mistaken for a spy by Master Xang. I actually didn't get that from the story at all. Loki Renard is a decent storyteller, but in this case I think the story falls short of being complete. I found it hard to engage in this storyline, difficult to connect to the characters and was just plain underwhelmed by the whole thing.

Caressa's Knees Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Caressa's Knees is a poignant, beautifully written love story. Kyle is hired as the assistant to Caressa Gallo, a 20-year old cellist and musical genius. Kyle is a down-to-earth boy from Texas, organized, level-headed, and the exact opposite of Miss Gallo. Caressa is a former child prodigy who's life has always been the music. She suffers from incredible guilt over a past experience she had no control over. She has a crippling fear of failure. For Caressa this results in instability, loneliness and refusing to act like the adult she had become. Despite not wanting to admit it, Caressa needs Kyle to ground her in reality.
I enjoyed Caressa's character even with her flaws. Sure, at times she was an emotional wreck, but deep down she was strong to have survived such an exceptional childhood. I could feel her pain and anguish, her overwhelming passion for her music, and the relief she felt when she let Kyle into her guarded world. Now, Kyle wasn't perfect. He was burdened with problems from his past too. He did a few things that had me shaking my head. However, a few imperfections make a hero more compelling, which was certainly the case with Kyle.
The BDSM in this story is rather sensual, and it came very naturally between Kyle and Caressa. I thought that their D/s relationship was amazing. Passionate, personal, and very erotic. It was an intimate experience between them without the larger BDSM scene. Caressa needed Kyle's control, and he willingly gave it to her.
I love Annabel Joseph's writing style. She really knows how to pull a reader into a story with her descriptive language. The scenes of Caressa playing the cello, or her and Kyle's magical experience beside a Texas pond gave me chills. The epilogue had me choked up too, sad the book was ending, yet thrilled at the outcome of their story.
