jesus christ, this is the book to read if you’re at all interested in reading about relationship dynamics, relationships with an age difference, kink, submission, or romance. it is a masterpiece of handling taboo subject matter with thoughtfulness and grace and respect. this really feels a book that was written for pleasure, and we are lucky enough to get to read. and there is a lot of explicit kinky sex in it, presented as something to be treasured and celebrated.
