The story line enters some territory of non-consent and heavierelements of "play." Expect to see sexnot always used for pleasure ... expect to get deep in the characters' heads toexplore their inner desires and fears. <i>-Jennifer, Under the Covers Book Reviews</i></span><br /><span></span><br /><span>I love this world the author built! I really enjoyed that not all the facts &amp; rules of this worldare shown upfront (no info dump). The author takes the readers on a journeyshowing this world piece by piece, and the rules of it are slowly unraveledthroughout. <i>- Country Gals Sexy Reads</i></span>
