Ann Mayburn

Compared to most femdom I've seen, this is 4 or 5 tar. Which says very little about this book and everything about how hard it is to find good femdom. If you are looking for femdom in a semi-decent story, you could do worse.

Sadly, by more general standards, it falls very flat.

First off, Mayburn seems to have some real trouble deciding what the main conflict is. She starts off giving the reader the impression that Dr. Sapphire, the heroine, is going to be rescuing the hero by using kink and a change of scenery to help him recover from a bad case of PTSD. I won't give away any spoilers here, but suffice to say that this is highly misleading.

While the issue that will become the main conflict is hinted at from earlier on, the change in focus is extremely damaging to the story and realy annoyed me, as it swung from promising heroine would rescue hero to a stereotypical hero rescuing heroine.

Characters are generally well developed, but their interactions and responses to each other often seem off.

Minor inaccuracies pulled me out of suspension of disbelief.

Overall, not a bad book, but I'm not sure it was worth the entrance fee and definitely not worth reading again.… (more)
