4 ½ out of 5 stars
This book covers the lives of three best friends. Biljana Stevens - better known to her friends as Billie - is still suffering from the loss of her lover and isn’t sure she’s going ever get over it. Jasmin Stallworth is in the Special Investigations department and loves her job as a police officer. Vicky Knox is the only friend who is married and she works in the medical research field and is mostly happy with her life -- outside of the bedroom at least.
This is my first book by Mr Daltrey and I loved his writing style. I am usually a fan of the first person point of view, but in this third person novel I was able to gain a better understanding of all the friends and what they were really thinking at all times and get a better grasp on the situations. I felt the emotions in this book and enjoyed reading about their feelings and their emotions rather than just about their bedroom life.
Billie is stuck in the past with David, her lover who died in a freak work accident. She can’t get over the fact that she has always felt like she was his and that they were to spend the rest of their lives together fighting the world together. She doesn’t know how to cope alone...or she doesn’t think she does anyway.
Jasmin puts herself in a crazy-ass situation and finds herself being submissive to a criminal guilty of killing cops. She finds that she is stimulated by his control over her and they definitely have some hot and heavy scenes.
Vicky thinks she needs to heat things up in the bedroom with her husband and finds herself in a predicament she doesn’t know what to do with.
I loved that the three friends relied so heavily on each other and found solace in their friendship...even when they had a fight, they managed to make up. I wish I had a group of girlfriends like them!!
Mr Daltrey did a great job of putting me into this story and his imagination made my imagination go crazy, too. I can’t wait to read the other two books in the series, Pain & Purpose, and I highly recommend that you try this one, too.
By day I work in Marketing, which involves a fair amount of writing. Therefore, I never really had an interest to write for pleasure. When you do it all day, the last thing you want to do when you get home, is more writing. All the while, as my career progressed, so did my involvement in the BDSM lifestyle.
This interest in kinky sex started in my University years. Like most men, I loved meeting women, and especially the occasional one who didn't mind being tied up, or blindfolded, or spanked. All sex was great, but kinky sex was more exciting, more exhilarating, and more fulfilling.
Over the years I was lucky enough to meet my fair share of submissive women. And don't for a minute think these women were weak. Outside the bedroom they were confident, opinionated, gregarious and self-assured. However, inside the bedroom (so to speak) they wanted to feel the strong firm hand of a dominant man taking complete control.
Eventually I found the perfect partner, and am happily in a relationship.
One day, I flipped my laptop open, and to my surprise - I had an urge to write a BDSM story. Soon I had 20 pages, then 40, then 60. The novel that resulted was 'Testing the Submissive'. The response was overwhelmingly positive, and the reviews excellent - all of which motivated me to continue writing. 'A Condo with Two Views' is my second full length novel, with other projects in the works. If you decide to give any of my writing a try, I hope you enjoy it!
