I have been desperately searching for a sapphic ex boyfriend's mum romance as soon as I developed an affinity for taboo age gap romances and this gem just fell into my lap 😭
So this was spicier than I expected, I have to admit. I have zero complaints on that front.
Our MC Nyx starts out as a very shame filled woman who is trying to explore her interest in the BDSM scene. Throughout the course of the book, we see her grappling with and shedding that shame.
Axelle, our other MC is full of angst around her relationship with her son and the loss of her previous partner.
Both work through these issues together through their own independent storylines.
They make each other feel safe almost immediately, and that's a huge benefit to building this D/s relationship together, however forbidden it might be. This unfortunately meant we missed out a bit on being able to watch that process unfold. We got Ax dropping her guard and showing some vulnerability, but Nyx remained, for the most part, trusting the whole way through.
The suspenseful aspect of the book was handled well, it kept Ax in a good light as we don't delve too deep into her crimes and what she's involved in. This saved having to have a proper redemption arc for her to get our favour back.
This was a pretty solid romance, I just wish we'd been able to see the emotional connection between the two a little more explicitly shown.
This would be perfect for anyone looking for something kinky and sapphic, and they enjoy an age gap with a forbidden aspect. Just enough suspense to keep you on your toes, and enough angst to fill a swimming pool.
