Why? Why haven’t I read something like this before? It’s like the opposite of what made me turn my back on m/f a few years back.
This is fucking great!
No fucking gender stereotypes!
I really, really loved that, and I needed to read something like this, something relatable.
A confident woman, or even better, a woman that hasn’t always been confident but is now.
I understood both Merry’s and Rob’s fears and struggles. I think what happened between them felt natural and real, although we still have this fairy-tail feel to the story as well.
This book is scorching hot. Also totally my kink, I found out. Not only can I relate to Rob’s sexuality because I do relate to it on a mere fantastical level, but moreover, I could see myself in Merry’s dominant role. I especially loved how the wish to submit and be humiliated arose from Rob’s side and not the other way around. Merry indulged him and realised how much she was into it herself, without losing her own sexual identity. That was really well done.
Did I mention this was hot?
I loved the pacing, the advance and retreat in the beginning. I liked the secluded Scottish setting. I think I liked everything. Recommended!

"Eeeeeehhh :))) This is amazing. Why have I never read something like this? I can get so into this. Can't wait to see how it will feel when she is dominating him. What I love even more it that he is into it and she is realising that she loves doing this for him."

Great review, definitely TBR. I just realized this is the same author of BADGER, Oh that one was so good.

I've had this on my tbr for a while so it's good to see your stars. I really liked her Shivaree trilogy.
L, yes, she is the same. That's why I read this book. Alexis recommended some since I really loved BADGER. Especially the non stereotypical representation of both woman and man. This is not dark like BADGER. Has a happy ending and is romantic. Hope you'll like it as well.
Sofia, I've heard the Shivaree trilogy was good. I'll definitely look into it. The next book will be WILLING VICTIM, though, I think.
