Any additional comments?
Who would have thought that solo sex can be this sexy…?
That daily tools can very well transform into the kinkiest of sex toys?
That although the book was full mind-blowing sexy times – there weren’t many chapters without – you still get to know and understand the hero and the heroine just perfectly and see them develop?
This book was truly a box full of surprise for me – in an absolute positive way. The synopsis alone, the concept of a BDSM relationship carried out online, was a breath of fresh air and absolutely unique.
HER WEB MASTER is the first book by Normandie Alleman I got to read – or rather got to listen to on audio book – and I am looking forward to discover more of her stories.
As fluent and fast-paced as the story is, with heaps of dirty talk, the time flies by until you realize you’ve already come to the end.
Sophie lives in a loveless marriage with a husband that is cheating on her whenever he can. Her husband is the one cheating – and still he is the one asking for a divorce… via text! Yet, Sophie could not be more relieved. She is done and more than ready for a change. So when she is introduced to BDSM one night after going out for the first time in ages, she becomes fascinated by it. Being a teacher she has to protect her reputation as to not put her job in jeopardy, so she uses the internet to satisfy her fascination … and accidentally lands into the hands of an online trainer…
And what a man he is! Wow! Dirty, dominating, kinky, inventive and oh-so sexy. He has to be the dirtiest talker I’ve ever run across. Whew! His words alone made my Kindle melt and Sophie’s (/my) insides quiver. Although he sometimes really was harsh and downright mean, I couldn’t help but find his way of talking deliciously sexy. Incredible and hot as hell!! God, what his dirty talk did to me… but I’m getting carried away here.
And the dirty talk is not the only thing I found wickedly delicious with the Dom who calls himself MC.
• His ways of putting regular household items to good use as pleasuring devices – be it rubber bands, clothes pins, a spatula, tons of tape – even forks – and so many more
• The kinky tasks he sets up to torture Sophie – his imagination really has no boundaries
• The questionnaires he has Sophie filling out to reassess the sessions and gauge her reactions…
Seriously, I would never have thought that solo play could be this intriguing and steamy!
I love Normandie for coming up with an incentive and unique storyline like that! It is really one of a kind, and I cannot stress this enough!
As the intensity of the sessions rises to new heights, so does the bond between Sophie and her Dom that undeniably was there from the very beginning. The sessions are everything and more you can look for in a BDSM romance, there is a perfectly strict Dom and an obedient submissive who wants nothing more than to please her Master. It is the kind of Dom/sub relationship that has your own body temperature rising and wishing for a cold shower – or a partner, for that matter – to release that pent-up tension.
Two more words about the audio version: I think Alicyn Aimes does a wonderful job bringing the characters to life. She transports the character’s feelings just perfectly into her voice and you always know who is talking. I have to admit I really had troubles with getting used to MC’s voice, because it comes across overly arrogant at times, but all in all she pulled off the dominant alpha male that is MC pretty well, I believed every word that was spoken.
The pain level is slightly higher than in your average BDSM novel, and also the warning of a dirty, filthy talking dominant alpha is to be taken very seriously – if that does not bother you and you are looking for an insanely erotic read, this is the (audio) book for you!!
