This had to be my least favorite book in the series so far. While the plot does finally start to move along as far as the deviousness of Zion goes it didn't move along enough for me and I almost DNF'D this book.
While I appreciate the author giving one of the MMC an "invisible" disorder and portraying it pretty well. The rest of the book was a bit annoying. I did enjoy Talia's reluctance to stuff in the beginning the fact that these women just wind up accepting everything their husbands like and so wholeheartedly is starting to piss me off a little. These women just happen to fall into a kink lifestyle that they knew NOTHING of and their only source of knowledge is their husbands? If their husbands wanted them to truly get comfortable and gain knowledge with the lifestyle they should be offering them books or access to that knowledge that isn't just coming from them.
I definitely felt like this book in particular dragged on more than it needed too and there were way too many long drawn out sex scenes. Don't get me wrong, I love a good spicy sex scene but this book felt like it was mostly that and nothing else.
I'm going to continue the series to see what happens but I swear if Gideon's book and something doesn't happen with the main plot I'm going to lose my mind.
