Book Review: Bared to Him


Summary (from Goodreads): When stern, handsome, powerful, and rich Phillip Dettmer offers to all make Myka Monroe's BDSM fantasies come true, she's oh so tempted. She has always dreamed of being with a man who would be relentless in his expectations, a Dom who will push her to the edge, giving her the climaxes she craves and the bondage she needs. But she had never imagined that Phillp Dettmer would lay her bare to him, mentally and emotionally as well as sexually, or that the experience would change her life forever, leaving her stronger and more able to ask for what she needs.

Rating: 3 stars (3/5)

Kink Factor: High, but very introductory. Still pleasantly steamy.

First Thoughts: "Well that ended far too quickly for my liking."

Review: Bared to Him is a short novella, originally published in an anthology (Bound to the Billionaire) and lacks the finess of a full story that I have come to love about Cartwright's works. Playing on the story of a newly awakened sub, the scenes are tame compared to veteran erotica stories, but don't let that sway you from an enjoyable, hot read. Perfect to whet your appetite, there is anal, humiliation, "punishment", and yes, bondage. However, if this story does leave you craving more  -- as it did me -- pick up a copy of With this Collar (#1) also by Cartwright.
