Synopsis: Tad’s weekend started out like any other: hitting a college frat party with a handful of buddies. But just as the evening hits its peak, things get up-ended fast. Ditched by his drunken, trolling friends, Tad winds up getting hustled by three jocks playing poker. Now he’s forced to pay his dues in the most outlandish of ways: accepting a couple broken bones or spending an hour with his victors’ favorite flogger, Scott. But the tantalizing torture quickly proves to be the least of Tad’s worries… and the kickoff to a night of raw, shocking lust.
Experience the graphic, minute-by-minute account of that hour spent at the hands of Tad’s insatiable tormentor. Addicting chemistry lights the stage as Scott ignites Tad’s reluctant desires into a frenzy of forbidden need. – via goodreads
Review: Okay. So, a friend of mine told me I had to read this. It was the hottest thing ever. With one caveat – you had to get past the dafuquery that is the plot and suspend your disbelief. She tells me that I had to suck it up in order to enjoy the later sequels because they do get better and there is a story she says. I think there are – I don’t even know – 4-5-6 – who knows. I had some problems with plot/writing, but I’ll let you decide what you think without coloring your judgment of it. The blurb is pretty much all there is to it.
So, yeah, that is this book. It’s straight up porn, nothing more. If that’s your thing, enjoy. I however, prefer some emotion and plot along with my porn. Parts of it were hot, I’ll give her that, but mostly? I was kinda bored. YMMV. In my defense though, I had just finished reading a really long PWP (not intentionally – I thought it was actually a book.) It was like 3-400 pages. Ridiculous. I DNF’d it about the halfway point I think. I bring that up because I was essentially porned out. Yeah, I know, I was stunned too. Apparently it happens. 😉 It could have significantly influenced this review. The fact that I felt any heat from it after that is testament that my friend was probably right, so I’ll give it 5 flames. If you have a dirty talk kink, you’ll definitely be pleased. 😉
Needless to say, this is the only one I’ve read. If you take the series on, let me know what you think. I’m curious if she’s right.
Oh – and bonus – this one is free on Amazon right now. So, go pick it up. What do you have to lose?
