Why run out for the Sunday Times today, when you can get a whole book review section right here at UCTMW.

They disagree on the need for punctuation.
Mick suggested it might be interesting for me to share with you some sexy BDSM books from time to time. I am excited to begin with a few books by Claire Thompson, an award winning BDSM author as well as very good friend of mine. Having been part of the lifestyle for many years, Claire knows what she writes.
In Claire's own words: I don't want to simply provide an erotic thrill or evocative description. With my D/s romances I seek not only to tell a story, but to come to grips with, and ultimately exalt in the true beauty and spirituality of a loving exchange of power. My darker works press the envelope of what is erotic and what can be a sometimes dangerous slide into the world of sadomasochism.
Claire's eBooks are available at her website, Romance Unbound, http://romanceunbound.com/, or for those who prefer a paper book, her print books as well as eBooks are available at Amazon.com.
The Contract was released last week and within two days made the ARE best seller list. Make Me is a New York Times and USA Today Best Seller. It is an amazing anthology of 12 full length books written by the biggest names in edgy romance and includes Enslaved, a great m/f book by Claire Thompson.
THE CONTRACT
Out of a job and betrayed by his lover, Jace Thompson jumps at an opportunity almost too good to be true. On a private island in the Florida Keys, a secret BDSM community exists in resort-style luxury, the wealthy clients served by paid submissives who meet their every erotic desire and sensual whim. As Jace works hard to serve the men of the island with submissive grace, he is challenged at every turn by a manipulative trainer who seems hell bent on his failure, and another who brings out a deeply submissive nature Jace didn't realize he possessed.
When trainer Quinn is asked to assess Jace for his submissive potential, the connection between them is immediate and intense. He might have to make an exception to his rule to never get involved with the service subs. His jealous ex-lover has other ideas.
Dark intrigue and unrequited desires combine in a tangled web of danger and deception. Against a backdrop of lush tropical beauty and steamy BDSM passion, Jace and Quinn begin a tentative and ultimately powerful exploration of Domination and submission not only of the body, but of the heart and soul. The Contract
SUBMISSION IN PARADISE
Shea Devon accepts the gift of a week at Paradise Islands, expecting moonlit walks on the beach and sweet kisses over candlelight dinners. Instead, a mix-up lands her on the company's BDSM island, at the mercy of a very sexy but stern Master.
Liam Jordan follows the script he believes was designed expressly for the lovely young woman in his charge. Thinking her resistance is part of the game she desires, he subdues the sexy, sassy Shea and gives her a spanking she won't soon forget, with plans for so much more.
Liam is captivated by this woman whose submissive potential has barely been tapped. Shea, both intrigued and terrified by the force of her own reactions, struggles with the concept of erotic submission, and even more with the ultimate surrender, that of the heart. But now that the Pandora's box of longing and desire has been opened, there is no going back for either of them.http://www.amazon.com/Submission-Paradise-Claire-Thompson-ebook/dp/B00HS5X0TI/ref=sr_1_9?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1396068244&sr=1-9
