Sum It Up! This seems to be an entirely new world and might be part of a series, if not…it should be!

Summary:

Athena Rochan can’t believe her father strolls back into her life after years of being away at war, resumes his seat at the helm of Rochan Shipping then hands her over to Barik Lugaren. Lugaren specializes in training women to conform to Elecian custom, which dictates that women please their husbands—and their guests—in any and every sexual manner.

Athena has no choice. Either she cooperates with Lugaren’s training or her father will disown her and she’ll never see her mother again. She has ninety days to learn to please Lugaren, with her tongue, her lips and every other part of her body. Then he brings his friends so she can demonstrate her skill, and they can show her that pleasure can be a two-way street. Or three, or four…

Reader Advisory: This book contains scenes of forced seduction that some may find offensive. (Ellora’s Cave)

Review:

This is one of those books that bring up mixed feelings the entire time you’re reading it. This is a short little read with about 55 pages. There is a warning of forced seduction, and this story is exactly that, so if that offends you this is not a book for you. This seems to be an entirely new world and might be part of a series, if not…it should be!

Athena is a very strong willed, independent woman, who endures so much throughout this story. Barik enjoys his job, but finds something more with Athena.

The qualms: first and foremost is the complete degradation of all women by training them to be submissive sex slaves. This story is sci-fi, the characters in this story all appear to look and act like humans, but they are definitely some other type of alien like species. Even with those two points the story is still incredibly hot, if you like the force.

Mixed feelings, good feelings…I am definitely going to have to check out more of Ms. Masters’ writing.
