I feel the title should have been 'Surrender your butt'. Consent seemed rather dubious in the beginning and the butt obsession felt rather over the top. ( )

Scorching hot if you like Dominance and light BDSM, and a ménage a trois

I read this and [b:Fyre Brand|8419345|Fyre Brand|Lora Leigh|http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51-gmwfa+xL._SL75_.jpg|12515571] in the book: [b:Surrender To Fire|6640958|Surrender To Fire|Lora Leigh|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1275684179s/6640958.jpg|6835421].

The moral of this story: the quickest way to a woman's heart is through her ass.



This story was the slightly better of the two I read in the [b:Surrender To Fire|6640958|Surrender To Fire|Lora Leigh|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1275684179s/6640958.jpg|6835421] book and the sex scenes were fairly hot at times. I'm still unsure why anal sex is a requirement that goes hand in hand with love when it comes to [a:Lora Leigh|2614|Lora Leigh|http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1211464290p2/2614.jpg]'s writing, but I didn't feel quite as sick during the dirty talk episodes. Unfortunately, the guy was as openly foul-mouthed as nearly every one of Leigh's heroes.

The thing about a lot of [a:Lora Leigh|2614|Lora Leigh|http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1211464290p2/2614.jpg]'s novels, from what I've gathered so far, is that they might work for a lot of people as erotica because there's plenty of extremely graphic sex, but they flop down on their faces as soon as Lora tries to turn it into a romance... which she does a lot. In pretty much every story she tells, somewhere amid the spanking, gross language and anal, one or both characters realises they are in love.

Love works in erotic romance, look at [a:Lorelei James|541293|Lorelei James|http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1235687924p2/541293.jpg], look at [a:Shayla Black|20983|Shayla Black|http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1251222240p2/20983.jpg], even look at the first [a:Lora Leigh|2614|Lora Leigh|http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1211464290p2/2614.jpg] novel I read: [b:Wild Card|2721318|Wild Card (Elite Ops, #1)|Lora Leigh|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1219534638s/2721318.jpg|2746915]. But it only works when there's a story and a relationship that goes beyond doing someone in the ass. There's something about a lot of Lora's work that fills me with revulsion, I know I should walk away but it's so hideous I can't stop reading. I must break this habit fast and read something I can feel positive about for a change.
