Title: Tame and generic, don't bother
Review: This book has nothing to recommend it. The characters are less fully realized than the stuff of Harlequin romances. There's a crying lack of detail in plot and setting. As just one example, Phillip cooks a meal of "Chinese food." Yawn. This is typical. By the end of the story, we have the protagonist accepting a proposal and she still doesn't know what he does for a living. We don't know what she does, either. These are formless characters living in a void.Far worst of all, as bdsm novels go, this is as about as tame and lame as you can find. A little light bondage, a couple of smacks to the butt, that's it. Ho-hum. She's broken, but in no time at all. No wonder. The biggest pushing of her limits was having her eat an egg he hadn't touched.Secret Submission is enough to scare someone vanilla.
