Customer Rating: Summary: Over-the-top BDSM fantasy, with a BDSM philosophy appended Comment: This is a strange book. The first half is a fantasy of female slaves and male doms, with the slaves kept in an estate's stable. Scenes of whipping, bondage and human equestrianism follow, done with over-the-top exaggeration and minimal attention to plot, motivation, character, etc. That the heroine (a slave) owns the estate and runs her own business on the side strains credulity, but who cares? Then, the heroine seduces her second master into falling in love, and they marry. It then turns into a love story with a BDSM theme, but the scenes receive only cursory mention. Then, they encounter a newleywed couple interested in the lifestyle, and this provides a pretext for a fairly decent statement of the principles of power exchange, trust, etc. At the end, apparently feeling the need to bring a conclusion to the plot (which had been almost forgotten), the heroine and her husband/master are seriously burned in a gas explosion. He dies, and she winds up disfigured and in a convent doing charitable work! Whaa? The style change between the first and second part is so abrupt that they could easily have been written by two different people. Best to read each chapter as a stand-alone, and not pay any attention to the almost complete absence of structural integrity in the story or characterization.
