Stress Relief By: Diana Hunter (Read Excerpt) E-mail this product to a friend Meg Turner needs to relax. Between her job, her mother and the loss of a good Dom, she’s all wound up and needs a good flogging to relieve her tension.   Rand Arthur is a busy man with a company to run. He doesn’t need commitments, but when his friend asks him to take Meg on as a new sub, he agrees, knowing there’s nothing that relieves stress like flogging a willing back.   But by the end of their first session, both find something in the other that neither expected. The scenes are hot, the sex hotter, as Rand takes her places and pushes her farther than she ever dreamed possible. Now, neither wants to change the rules of their relationship and risk losing it all.   Reader Advisory: This story contains very graphic group sex scenes. Quantity:

Maria on 6/8/2010, said: How refreshing to find some real BDSM amid so many with a little light bondage and maybe a spanking or two (those are fine, but not really what I consider BDSM). Although humiliation is not a fantasy of mine, I thought it was very well done here. Actually, the BDSM was very well done. It's not extremely romantic, but more than amply so. The writing is excellent (as is the editing), the psychology explained, the scenes creative and smoking hot. Perhaps EC could do something more to warn readers of more tender sensibilities. It would be a shame if a wonderful writer like Ms. Hunter continued to be unappreciated for giving some of us what we really want and doing it so well. Details: Yes, lots of humiliation at the hands of multiple men, one scene in public. Also: serious bondage, flogging/whipping, collar/leash and cage. Dom/sub psychology, believable romance. Full intercourse takes place only between Meg and Rand. There are no other women in the book at all (thank you) and no ménage scenes. Hope this helps.

Rose on 12/29/2009, said: I wish I had read the comments before buying, because after reading the book I came back to the site to make a comment and found that other readers felt the same way about the book that I do. There was too much humiliation, which isn't all BDSM is about. Was this comment helpful? yes no   (0 people found this comment helpful, 2 did not) 3. RomanticAlice on 8/28/2009, said: Concur w/ other comments that it's a lot of humiliation. Not enough 1-1 bdsm activities between the characters and too much talk about "breaking" her.

The story between the two main characters is a bit weak but otherwise okay. Was this comment helpful? yes no   (3 people found this comment helpful, 1 did not) 5.
