3.0

Good overall storyline.  I do plan to read the concluding sequel because this ends on a cliffhanger and I need closure.  Settled on 3/5 stars though because consent is always mandatory, even in BDSM and Kink culture.

This is a good book but the characters do not really develop. They’re pretty much the same through the entire book.   I don’t wanna give any spoilers so I will leave it at that.
