At Your Mercy: Tales of Domination Reviews

I keep saying I am going to give up on short stories as they very often do not work for me. Then I get drawn into a collection like this one which explores an interesting theme and promises some hot and spicy content and ultimately end up wishing I hadn't.
The writing in a lot of these stories is pretty bad and in a few cases the premise was so far-fetched that it was difficult to take the story seriously. I will give the book credit for having women in their 30s and 40s as the protagonists in some of the stories and showing how sex and kinks are not just for young adults. This was really nice to see but I just wish the plots had given more. I didn't expect to be bored and rolling my eyes but unfortunately that's what happened. -
As the title & cover suggest, this is an anthology of short stories regarding BDSM-style erotica. There are 10 separate stories in this collection, written by different authors in a way that make the book flow as though it is simply one author's kinky little black (and blue) book. As a matter of personal opinion, I did prefer the stories in which the females were the subs.
I'm quite picky when it comes to erotica, because so often (in my opinion) the language kills the mood. Within this anthology, however, I found it to be a very good balance of lustful & raunchy, without coming across as trashy.
The two I liked best were Deeper Access & Life Begins at Forty, which I know is a bit contrary to my previous preferences. However, each in turn is a good read, & I found myself craving each story.
I recommend this mix for anyone who likes a bit of whips & chains, be you sub or dom, you'll have something to enjoy. -
This is a book.
