About this ebook

How bad do you want to be bound, gagged, spanked, or slapped? ? How bad do you want to pant, gasp, scream, and squirm? How bad do you want to turn over some part of yourself to a man just dying to strip you bare and take you somewhere you've never been? Here you'll find all sorts of women for whom their own personal "Sir"s (or Masters or Daddies) hold the reins to their erotic pleasure. For them, saying yes (or a bratty, defiant "no" for which they'll be duly punished) is as powerful as a good, hard smack on the bottom. Playing at "Sir," let's these players take their kinky to a whole new level.

Ratings and reviews

I'm always looking for a kinky read that gives me something new to think about, and this book does that and then some. I liked that the authors challenged me to think about some of my own fetishes in new ways and got off in many cases as much on the mental aspect of submission as the physical. These stories certainly got me off but they did a lot more than that. They made me consider what it means to be a submissive (and a dominant) and made me appreciate both sides of that equation. So they work as arousal material for sure but also go a lot deeper than the surface.

I like kinky stories, especially ones that surprise me or teach me new things. Yes, Sir definitely did that and more. I had no idea what was going to happen and that added to the kinkiness. The submissives were all fully fleshed out characters in their own right, some more bratty, some more proud, some newbies, some who knew exactly what their fetishes were. The Art of Darkness by Alison Tyler set the perfect tone for the rest of the book, because it showed the woman working out for herself what she will get out of submitting and taking a risk because she trusts her dom. That's what I really loved reading about: the way these women transformed as they chanced surrendering and pushed themselves (or let themselves be pushed) to new pleasures. It's not just about taking orders, but about figuring out what turns you on about doing so, and the characters went about this process in very creative, fascinating ways. A keeper for sure.

Most of the stories are a bit over the top for my tastes. Not into pain.
