Tears of Tess by Pepper Winters

5.0

Spoiler

Oh wow was this a delicious bite of dark erotica!

The main female character is Tess. In the beginning she seems to want to include her boyfriend in her kinky desires. They go on vacation to Mexico, she dresses sexy for him and shows him a toy. Brax seems sweet enough. He is not kinky (he does not even like PDA) but he truly loves Tess. Tess wishes that was enough. She loves Brax but he is obviously not as dominant as she needs her lover to be to get off.

While in Mexico Tess is kidnapped. Fast forward a few weeks to when she becomes the possession on Q aka Quincy Mercer. She comes into his household still full of fight. The thing Q notices and likes the most about her. Q never claims to be anything but a master. Her Master. She realizes soon enough that he could be the type of man to feed her desires. But he's her captor!

The time it took for Tess to go from being unsure about her sexuality, to captive to falling for Q was paced appropriately. I knew it was going to be dark but I did not know Q would end up having a surprise or three up his sleeve. For example, he invites some people over while Tess in tied up, naked and display for their entertainment. This is surprising behavior seeing as Q treats Tess with some degree of a Master. Ownership seemed questionable in that scene.

A lot of other things happen to Tess that you will have to simply read to find out. I am looking forward to the next book.

Overall Rating 4.67 round up to 5

Characters 5 (Tess and Q are simply wicked together and I want to keep reading to see where the story goes!)

Story/Plot 4 (very believable, dark yet highly erotic)

Heat/Romance 5!! (every time Tess and Q have a scene together, be it sex or not, sparks fly!)
