THE GENTLE DOMINANT by J.L. Thomas
3.0
***Review copy provided by the publisher in exchange for an honest review***
Genre: Romance/Erotica (Fiction)
Review:
This book is a compilation of the following stories:
The Unravelling of Theo
Genre: Romance
A novelette, it starts with our female protagonist getting kicked out of her job. Why? Because she wouldn't put up with her boss's demands for sexual favours. And wow, what a perfect way for her to leave. A kick-ass heroine, who's bad day almost got worse because of the hero, who behaves just as badly but does rectify his behaviour.
And then Theo Caro asks Eden on a date. Even though she wants him, and there is much teasing and flirty banter, she refuses.
Set in London, this story is told from Eden's POV, with Theo's Thoughts making its presence felt. Theo is one gorgeous gentleman and he's so hot with words.
For a change, in a romance, a man's virginity is the topic of discussion. As well as the lady being five years older than the lad.
The Gentle Dominant
Genre: Erotica
This one starts in the middle of the red carpet, where heartthrob Darius Carter is sauntering down from his latest silver screen spectacle, and instead of signing the programme Helena's holding out, straightaway invites her to dinner at his penthouse.
What follows is a proposition by Darius to Helena for being his submissive, followed by a volley of words - back and forth - with Helena's dirty mouth an active participant.
This short story, or should I say a sneak-peek to the first book in The Gentle Dominant Series - Poetic Rapture, explains both its cover and that of its sequel, Quantum Entanglement as well. The intimate scenes are hot and written with finesse.
Trigger Warning: This is a Dom/sub story.
Forever Yours
Genre: Erotica
This one isn't a short story. It contains two excerpts from the second book in The Gentle Dominant Series - Quantum Entanglement.
P.S. There are quite a few misprints throughout the book which takes away the thunder of the stories. Otherwise, it would have been a four star read for me.
Also, the author has a unique style of writing which you have to read to know. I'm looking forward to reading both Poetic Rapture and Quantum Entanglement (hopefully with no typos!).
