Pictures are often painted with words. Lust, love, desire, and kink are no exception. Instead of lines and lines of prose to express need and want, Kayla Lords uses simple poetry. Within these pages, you'll find haikus, couplets, and free verse with one thing in common: notes of the sensuous pleasure, kinky fun, and power exchange found between a Dominant and a submissive.
I discovered my love of writing at age seven and my sexual fantasies long before I reached adulthood. Now instead of experiencing sexual daydreams, I write them down and publish them for others to enjoy.
I write BDSM-themed erotica with a focus on dominance and submission (D/s). I not only want to turn my readers on, but I want them to realize that D/s is more than just a kink and isn't scary or degrading.
As a blogger, tweeter, and talker, I love interacting with my readers as much as possible!
This is a sizzling HOT book in a new-to-me genre I've never had the pleasure until now to review. Boy, am I glad I got to review it!
Lords' work first bleeped on my screen with Madame Gretchen. Since then, I've been hooked enough to expand my genre reading habits to include ... well, to my pleasant surprise, erotic poetry.
Onto the good stuff -- btw, it's ALL good. The cover image already hit some buttons. By the time I got to the dedication page, I was totally SUCKED IN. Who wouldn't be? When Lords write "I love you, Daddy" and Daddy responds in bold text:
I love you, too, babygirl. Now show me what's mine.
The book is split into four sections: Self Pleasure, Mutual Pleasure, Rough Love, Dominant and Submissive. Every section has its own teaser image. The first image to hit off Self Pleasure is a thick-thighed woman in high heels. Nice to see alternative models -- perfect for BBW fans. The next image, once again fitfully paired for the section, kicks off Mutual Pleasure by featuring a couple in positions that scream hierarchy, top/bottom. For the Rough Love section is the flogger behind a man's back. The hottest image, hands down (for me), is the last image that accompanies the Dominant and Submissive section. You'll have to get the book to see it. :-)
If each picture is worth more than a thousand words, then I'd be happy to report that the words that Lords strings so skillfully broadcasts even more. Yes, if you look at this "little" book and only size it up based on the word count, then you're missing the point. This book is jam-PACKED with goodies, intimate notes that you'd WANT to share with yours.
Overall, a highly recommended read. Five FAN-tastic Stars.
