( ) The entire thing was but a denouement for The Prince and perhaps the rest of the series (I haven't read any but these two). It had exactly the ending I wanted after reading The Prince and for that all the sparkles and rainbows to Ms. Reisz! However, as far as tension levels? Virtually zero in my case. As soon as Laila and Wesley met the tension deflated like a balloon for me because I knew then exactly how it would all play out. And I was right. I'm happy about that! This is a good book and the only reason (well I have one more, see below) it doesn't get five stars from me is because it can't compare to The Prince. But then, what can?? The thing that annoyed me about this book was that the entire thing felt like one long justification of kink. I don't know, maybe those middle-aged vanilla women whose first exposure was 50 Shades need it, but I sure don't! I'd wager most of the readership is with me too. Only good thing that came out of all of this PSA (besides exploring the characters feelings in-depth for The Happy Ending--which I loved, cannot say it enough) was that I realized being a masochist isn't something I chose. Hurting yourself as a teen for private enjoyment and not for attention? Check! Thanks, Nora! I'm nothing more than an amateur in the matter, but it was nice to know anyway. The last thing I'll say is that I cannot reconcile Soren doing what he does along with his calling. I shouldn't even be reading books like this yet I do because I'm weak--but that's about all I do. Soren?? NOPE SORRY. I get BDSM and marriage and everything with JUST Nora, okay. But beyond that I just can't. Yet Ms. Reisz seems to know her Bible... I'm not quite sure what she's trying to say here. Perhaps if I was Catholic I would understand? I don't think so but I don't know. I'm not saying I don't ship King and Soren--hello primary reason for reading. I'm just saying I cannot reconcile it and the multiple partners thing with Soren being a priest. But maybe that's the point. Original Sinners, after all! Disabling comments if I can figure it out. It's not my wish to cause any contention or stir any pots. These are simply my own thoughts and feelings recorded for posterity. If I was wiser I wouldn't write this at all since I am sure I am in the teeny tiny irksome and often yelled at minority. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

LGBTQIA+ (Fiction.)
HTML: There's punishment--and then there's vengeance. Nora Sutherlin is in handcuffs, held captive by two men. . Under different circumstances, she would enjoy the situation immensely, but her captors aren't interested in play. Or pity. As the reality of her impending peril unfolds, Nora becomes Scheherazade, buying each hour of her life with stories--sensual tales of Søren, Kingsley and Wesley, each of whom has tempted and tested and tortured her in his own way. This, Nora realizes, is her life: nothing so simple, so vanilla, as a mere love triangle for her. It's a knot in a silken cord, a tangled mass of longings of the body and the heart and the mind. And it may unravel at any moment. But in Nora's world, no one is ever truly powerless--a cadre of her friends, protectors and lovers stands ready to do anything to save her, even when the only certainty seems to be sacrifice and heartbreak....
