Well, no sexy scenes until chapter 65... and 48 hrs took a long time to write. I think it was too descriptive when it came to scenery and stuff like weather... it's one of those books where everyone seems to be the bad guy except the few friends Bear had. Do all subs need to be portrayed as poor, abused kids who have no friends and need their love interest to save them? Other then those irritations, this was well written, great character development, sweet ending, and fun supporting characters (but only on Bear's side because Brian didn't have anyone who cared).

This novel has fulfilled my imagination. It’s a journey that was amazing to read. Brian dealt with everything Donald wanted submitting to even wearing a collar.
