Contemporary erotic romance by Melissa Schroeder, and follow-up to A Little Harmless Sex. Cynthia is the perfect Southern Belle, until her father forbids her to attend her former fiance's wedding. After this act of defiance gets her disowned by her father, Cynthia drinks too much at the wedding, and goes back to the hotel room, of the groom's best friend. The alcohol, and the attraction to this man, Chris, who is absolutely not acceptable for a proper Southern Belle, gives Cynthia the courage to be the woman Cynthia wants to be, instead of who everyone expects her to be. This is a fabulous, realistic, sweet love story. Cynthia begins to see her life as it is, and how she wants it to be. Chris loves her enough help her on her journey. The sex scenes are scorching, the plot is good. This book includes some D/s, interracial romance, and a menage scene. One of the best erotic romances I've ever read. Realistically done. Put this one on your WL!
Cynthia Myers comes from a wealthy southern family and has alway done what was expected of her. The only value she has to her father is that of making a good marriage. She defies her father by attending her ex-finacee's wedding. She gets drunk and ends up going to a hotel room with Chris Dupree, Max's friend. The alcohol loosens her inhibition and she takes charge of the love making. This turns on Chris because he is a switch. He likes to submit but also likes to dominate at times. When Cris and Cynthia start their relationship Chris tells her that he goes both ways. He teaches Cynthia how to be in control and after being always controlled by her father she ends up loving it. When it comes to the time where she has to relinquish control she is not sure she can do it. When Cynthia finally agrees to be submissive, Chris asks his friend Evan, a Dom to join them.
The sex scenes where scorching. I loved how Cynthia finally became more self assured and confident. The BDSM is very light. There is some fun with handcuffs, some anal play, light spanking.
I can't wait for Evan's story to come out.

I really enjoyed this book. Cynthia Myers is the quaint essential southern bell. She's been taught since childhood that girls fit into two categories, Madonna and Whore. Her father has bullied her in every way possible to keep her in line. She follows the rules set by her family to never speak of family business, to marry whom they approve and never have a mind of her own.
In an act of defiance she is kicked out, disinherited and left abandoned by not only her father, but her mother, brother and those she thought to be her friends. Her true friends come to the rescue and introduce her to the man of her dreams.
Chris is a switch and step by step he shows Cynthia how she was born to be a dominant and in this act she finally feels free. When she finally feels she's got her footing in her new life Chris asks her if she's ready to submit to him like he's done. He's ready to switch role from submissive to dominant, but Cynthia's not.
I loved the story of how evil her parents are and to what lengths they are willing to go. I also love the story of Cynthia coming into her own. This book was a little short and some parts of the book seem rushed or feel skimmed over, but all in all I enjoyed reading this book.
