I had a problem with this story straight off the bat.Eleanor is a submissive and yet she has a smart mouth and likes to bait her Dom into proving who's in charge. Forgive me if I'm wrong but a well trained Sub will not act in such a manner. Besides which, the creep factor for her Dom is off the charts. So I was already put off before Eleanor was even 'gifted' to her recluse 'master' for the week. *eye roll*I'm open to and often enjoy reading a good BDSM sex scene, but lacklustre to the point of boringly clinical supposed hot sex is what I got.I've read hotter stuff in a standard Harlequin book (hot isn't just defined by how adventurous the sex is!) this was just icky, and quite frankly yawn worthy.As well as Eleanor being a bad sub, and the boring sex, there just seemed to be a lot of other stuff that didn't make sense to me either, but if I completely pick it apart I'd be here all day.Overall, I didn't like the characters or the narrative, and I definitely didn't enjoy the sex.The whole thing was just too shallow for me sorry. 1 Star :[
