Asking For It

by Lilah Pace

Originally, I was not going to read this book. I'm not a big dark erotic romance reader and this book scared the ever livin' crap out of me. Maria and Tonya decided to read it and the synopsis just kept grabbing my attention, so I agreed to read it. Cut to a few days ago when I finally worked up the nerve to read it. I didn't get very far in before I said, "NOPE, I can't read this." I read another book and then decided to give it another chance. All in all, I'm glad I did. I'm not going to pretend that I understood or identified with Vivienne and Jonah but the book is so well-written and extremely thought provoking. Asking For It, isn't just sex, sex, sex. Ms. Pace has created a fantastic and compelling supporting cast that I was completely invested in. Beware that this book is very triggery, so if you're sensitive that kind of thing, this book is not for you. The ending is a bit of a cliffhanger and I imagine I'll read the next book.
