'Perfection.' (Amazon USA) 'A classic.' (Amazon USA) ‘You want to kneel, don’t you?’ she said, a smile in her voice. What happens if a Mistress and slave fall in love? Will romantic love bring greater happiness, or will it lead only to darker cruelties? Abandoned by his wife for another man, David now lives as Ann Devlin’s full-time slave and housemaid. Ann’s a cruel and imperious woman, yet she shows David love and kindness when he most needs it, and he falls deeper under her glorious spell - ‘I know, I know,’ Ann said gently, ‘you’re praying this isn’t happening. You’re praying it’s only a dream, but it’s real, David, it is happening, and you’ll suffer it for me. You’ll suffer it for my pleasure and amusement, you know you will. You have no choice in the matter.’ To David, both Ann and Susan take on the power of goddesses - ‘David tried to lose himself in work, but shame and arousal fought inside him like snakes in a sack. As he carried the glasses and plates to the dishwasher he noticed that both Ann and Susan’s wine-glasses were marked with their lipstick in slightly different shades of red. These feminine markings turned their glasses into sacred chalices in his fevered mind and, burning with shame, he kissed each glass, thrilling to the faint taste of their lipstick, before placing them carefully into the dishwasher.’ Despite his torment and shame, David wonders if there’s a new kind of love in his submission – ‘And yet … And yet … A part of him wondered if he’d found his way to a new and magical kingdom where the laws of love and desire could be invented anew; a kingdom where pleasure could be found in pain, and cruelty could express a new form of love and compassion.’ WARNING - Contains scenes of BDSM sexuality and female domination within a wife-led marriage.
