Too much swearing for my taste but I liked the message of the book. Learning to drown is a difficult thing. The struggle that the main character went through is similar to my own struggles in many ways. I think that the story was well explained and the situations were clear on being safe, sane and consensual. That distinction is very important and the author did a great job of making that line and when that line is crossed clear. I am confused. I liked this, I thought the concept was awesome. But holy hell, Ember, QUIT WITH THE TEARS! I get that BDSM, submitting, etc. is emotional and you tend to open up but enough with the tears. I did really like Ember though. I loved when she got tough with Lucas. She wasn't weak, but too emotional for me. She wasn't scared, well I should say frightened, and did what she was told without question. She truly wanted to submit. I was actually nervous when Matthew got in the picture. I liked how she questioned his decisions and was skeptical.What I didn't like was the terms "whore" and "slut" being used repeatedly. Those words make me cringe, so I REALLY didn't like them being used to call a woman those.Lucas. Oh Lucas, I wasn't sure if I wanted to punch you in the head or love on you. Glad you got your head on straight.

This book was recommended to me by goodreads itself, but it just was not my cup of tea.
