The first novel in a provocative romance series that will captivate, exhilarate and intoxicate you like no other, perfect for those who loved the bestselling Fifty Shades of Grey but were left wanting more... It started with a spark... Everything changed when I met Dominic. My heart had just been broken, split into jagged fragments that can jigsaw together to make me look enough like a normal, happy person. Dominic has shown me a kind of abandonment I've never known before. He takes me down a path of pure pleasure, but of pain, too - his love offers me both lightness and dark. And where he leads me, I have no choice but to follow. Deeply intense and romantic, provocative and sensual, FIRE AFTER DARK will take you to a place where love and sex are liberated from their limits. Fans of E. L. James and Sylvia Day will find themselves kept awake late into the night with FIRE AFTER DARK...… (more)

Tiene algunos clichés post-cincuenta-sombras pero lo compensa con buena tensión sexual y mas BDSM .

Me gusto mucho mas que algunos mas famosos que andan dando vueltas (ejem ... crossfire ! Cough cough) pero , igual , tiene muchas fallas .

No es de lo mejor pero es entretenido y tiene cierto misterio . ( )

Oh, I don't know. It was...ok? It was also pretty contrived.
Beth, the country bumpkin that only had loved one man in her life. Then she found him boinking one of the town girls and he breaks her heart. The beginning of the book alludes several times to "what he had done to her" and why she was so miserable. Honestly, I thought for a while he had beat her or something.
Anyway, Beth's father has a wealthy godmother that offers up her posh London flat to Beth while godmother goes on a retreat to Montana.
Cue country girl alone in the big city.
Beth meets Dominic, Dominic's a Dom (tee hee, get it?? Dominic, the Dom??? *sigh* ) they have a flurry of ups and downs and then there is a cliffhanger at the end. Isn't that the way now?
What I didn't get: Beth is supposedly this small town, naive girl...but in the span of 4 weeks she is doing things that would make a seasoned seductress blush. It was just not real to me. She went from weak and mousy to full on temptress instantly. No one does that.
In the end, it was...ok. Not great. There needed to be a LOT more delving into the characters. Maybe the second book will make it better? ( )
