I admit I was confused. I wasn’t sure who was the Dom here. Supposedly Toby calls the shots, but Lauren fulfilled that role a way too often. Yes, I’m aware Toby is new in the scene, and I could really imagine him as the perfect controlled Dom in the years to come. But this book felt… strange, at lea...

First person POV works for me so rarely that I tend to avoid most books written in that POV, except if it's written by Alexis Hall. Alexis Hall knows his characters (and his readers as I learned in Glitterland and Waiting For The Flood) so I find myself easily pulled in to the stories and characters...

I loved this book! I loved how Toby and Laurie were able to connect and read each other. It was so refreshing to see the Dom in the making as a beginner and it was awesome that he found a seasoned sub that looked at his innocence and discovery with admiration and love rather than thinking him silly ...

The thing about hurdling over a reading slump with a good book is will you find another great book to keep the ball rolling. It’s daunting and pressuring on both you and the book. So when a book about a nineteen-year-old boy and an older man who enter into a Sub/Dom relationship drops into your lap ...

Toby is a 19 year old dom and Laurie a 37 year old submissive but somehow they seem to make this work."One of the few advantages of getting old is that you come to realise some things aren't...

Well WOW. Talk about being completely blown away by a book. This was an amazing read on several levels. First and foremost there’s the fact I should not have enjoyed this book as much as I did. The story is told in the first person by the two main characters in alternating chapters and a lot of wh...

Laurence Dalziel is worn down and washed up, and for him, the BDSM scene is all played out. Six years on from his last relationship, he’s pushing forty and tired of going through the motions of submission.Then he meets Toby Finch. Nineteen years old. Fearless, fierce, and vulnerable. Everything Laur...

Wow, this was really good - the challenges and dynamics of a relationship between a 19 year old and a 37 year old are very well done and believable; the fluctuations between being equal and suddenly almost like father & son due to the differences in life experience. The frustrations & passions of be...

As expected from Alexis Hall, this is an excellent and unusual romance. I love Toby's character - he feels insecure (which is natural, considering his age), but at the same time, has the will and courage to fight for what he wants, and recognises his strong sides and knows how to use them to his adv...
