Banks usually does a really good job with sub/Dom relationships but this one didn't work for me. I think in the past her sub female characters were stronger, had lives of their own, and wasn't as dependent and pathetic as Chessy was. Also Tate crossed a line that I wasn't sure any sub/Dom relationship based on love & trust could come back from, yet Banks chose not to address that. They never had to work through regaining that trust which would have made the book more interesting. It would have been nice to see Chessy learned from her mistakes and grow as a person too. But she doesn't. In the end she is the same doormat for Tate as before. She really doesn't hold the power of a true sub.

Writing wise there were a lot of repeats information. The dialogue between the lovers were sappy and sounded forced. Kind of like an SLA skit making fun of soap opera love scenes.

I would say skip this one.
