This book reads more like a memoir/journal read than a romantic suspense or erotica read. But in relinquishing control, Eli's life is fulfilled. Relinquishing control, is not seen as a masculine way to go about things. The story explores a much under discussed orientation that of the male submissive. He is told that he is to be sold to another Mistress. Officially, Eli now belongs to The Coterie. When Mistress Jasmine is killed in a road traffic accident, Eli is devastated. ![]() But Eli and Jasmine are more than Mistress and slave, they have fallen in love. ![]() Eli endures humiliation, depravity and absolute control, at the hands of Mistress Jasmine. Its members are Dominant women their ethos in life is total submission of the male. Jasmine tells Eli tales of a secret, exclusive organisation, The Coterie. When Jasmine tells Eli of her secret life, Eli is intrigued and gradually he is initiated into a world of BDSM, that as Jasmine’s submissive, is impossible for him to walk away from. He doesn’t understand her reluctance, they’ve had fun together and it isn’t as if he is asking her to marry him, just maybe a cup of coffee. When Jasmine the beautiful Dominant meets tall, hunky Eli at the dullest party in the world, Eli wants to see her again. Her new book, Enslaving Eli is a must for fans of the genre! Billierosie once again shows that she is a true master at writing hotter-than-hot BDSM erotica. ![]() |
