"Three stories of a different kind of love"

Mastered by Ann Jacobs
Sandra was in control during the day as a lawyer, but she had secret passions that she was afraid to share with anyone. Her current lover just left and now she was without anyone to help her pursue her need for submission. Rocky was a cop who was always in total control. He knew his passions didn't run to the norm. Several women found his need for total control too much. Sandra and Rocky were good friends and she didn't want to ruin their friendship. One night she finds herself unable to refuse Rocky's suggestion that they become more than friends. Much to their surprise, they find they have more in common than they thought. Will they be able to overcome their fears and find a life together?

I found this to be a very well written story. Ms. Jacobs doesn't disappoint when it comes to a sensual novel. The characters were intelligent and interesting to read about.

A Choice of Masters by Joey W. Hill

For five years Lilith has lived her life bespelled by an evil Wizard. His spell has kept her in perpetual arousal without the hope of fulfillment. She's only met her soul mate in her dreams. Every night Lilith and Sir Thomas meet, as they never have been able to in the real world. To free Lilith from her torment, Sir Thomas must free her from the spell of Lord Zorac and convince her he is her one true master.

This was an unusual historical novel. I found it to be a quick read. The characters were easy to care about and their actions were true to themselves.

Death Row: The Mastering by Jaid Black
2250 AD: Ncoletta Kan is now free after enduring over twenty years of an abusive marriage. At first she tried to escape him but found herself a captive of an alien being. After escaping, she discovers than her husband, Abdul Kan, is dead. Now on her way to a new life, bandits overtake her ship. Once again she finds herself in the middle of her worst nightmare, unsure if she'll survive.

This is the fourth and final story to the Death Row series. The story won't make sense unless you've read the first three books. As with all of Ms. Black's books, this one contains sensuality with a hard edge to it.

This whole book contains subjects that may be objectionable to some readers -- stories of bondage and submission in graphic detail. There is piercing, bondage, anal sex, sex toys, and graphic SM relationships.
