BLURB:
Honestly, I’m ready to take a step back from the Subs Club. Making the kink world a safer place for subs is the sort of bandwagon I’d have boarded as an idealist in my early twenties, but now I’m a pragmatist in my late twenties. I prefer to focus on adopting and raising a child.
But unexpected factors inevitably derail my plans. Like Drix Seger—attractive and the first genuine sadist I’ve encountered. If I were not in the process of renouncing my masochistic ways and becoming the normal, responsible potential father the adoption agency wants to see, Drix and I might do well together.
But he has a foolish name and belongs to a cult of vampyres, and I am quitting kink. So why does Drix’s infatuation with blood and biting make me so hot I can’t think straight? And why, when he looks at me, does he seem to see something beyond a basket case with a stick up my ass?
Can I start a new phase in my life without leaving part of myself behind? Please send help.
REVIEW:
Oh my goodness!! I really didn’t know how I was going to feel about this book. I’m pretty interested in BDSM practices but the thought of blood play totally weirded me out. But I really enjoyed book 1 so I buckled down and dove head first into this one and let me tell you…I am so glad that I did!! I really enjoyed this story. It was the absolute perfect combination of pain, pleasure, passion, lust, angst, and humor. I also didn’t know how the baby aspect was going to play out but I thought it all came together perfectly. Even after the baby momma drama it all seemed to work out for the best.
Miles is an out and proud pain slut. He doesn’t beat around the bush. He is a masochist and he’s proud. He finds it hard, however to find a tried and true sadist who’s willing to play and really hurt him.
Hendrix (Drix) is a sadist who lives his life in a vampyre subculture. He has purple eyes and pointed teeth and very interested in inflicting pain. Especially if it’s on Miles.
These two get out and heavy pretty quickly and their connection is pretty solid from the get go. I loved the chemistry and the dynamic between these two men. Miles is tightly wound and very neurotic while Drix is calm, cool and as laid back as they come. They balance each other out so perfectly. I really loved them together.
I really can’t say enough good things about this book, this series and this authors amazing talent. I love how we go more in depth with the Sub’s Club and I will never tire of Dave’s humor. He made me laugh through the first book and this one as well.
I am looking forward to Kamen’s story because he has always held a special place in my heart. Great book, definitely recommend.
