About the author

Corinne Davies reads anything she can get her hands on from the side of a cereal box to a historical book on the Riflemen during the Napoleonic wars. During her younger years, she first put pen to paper in an attempt to write a love story between her and her favourite rock singer of the time. It was filled all the angst that only a teenager can come up with and an incredible wardrobe.

In her senior year of high school she tried again. This time, the story was more like Clash of the Titans meets Robin Hood. Despite the unusual combination, the lack of plot, and a horrendous amount of dialogue, she received a lot of encouragement from her grade 12 English teacher. (Thank you Mrs Harvey!)

During the wee hours of the morning, when her first daughter insisted on waking up, she discovered online RPGs and her love of writing emerged again. After many encouraging words from fellow writers, she decided to try her hand at developing her own stories. Something, she quickly learned, was not as easy as she had imagined.

By day, she is a full-time wife, mother, and product consultant. At night, she avoids such mundane tasks as housework and laundry by creating her own worlds where mythology comes to life. Worlds in which you are just as likely to be living next door to an ancient Deity as finding an mystic treasure in the attic.

Reviews

[BookAddict ✒ La Crimson Femme · Rating 4 out of 5]

Is this the taming of the shrew? Kassandra is no red haired vixen. She is a raven black haired runaway wife. Her husband Julian Kincade finally gave up on chasing her after a few months. Two years later, he's back and he wants Kassandra to return.

Julian is a dream. He's sexy, dangerous and he owns a vessel named Atlantis which is usually underwater. And he's a Dominant who knows how to wield a whip. Why in heavens does Kassandra-call-me-"Kass" run from him? Because she is STUPID. Yes, she is. She eavesdrops on a scene, misunderstands and rather than communicate like a rational human being, she flees. Talk about lack of trust and faith in her husband. Julian is too good to her. He should have pulled her back in chains and tan her ass raw.

Kass's inability to communicate effectively aside, she's now an independent woman who works with the rebels to free slaves. She's grown a lot in two years and she's ready for Julian. Too bad she's not ready for both Julian and a delectable new lover, Miguel. This is where Ms. Davies kicked up the heat. She writes steamy ménages and this latest book in her steampunk series is just as hot. Her threesomes are truly triad where there is a connection between all of them. They love each other and fully sexually ravish in every combination. Miguel is a perfect addition to Julian and Kass's relationship. He balances them out and brings them together. Ms. Davies creates marvelous fantasy threesomes.

This latest book focuses more on the relationship than the world building and conflicting factions. In fact, there is very little to move the war between the Old and New World forward. The one little piece about the warfare is almost an afterthought rather than an integral piece of the puzzle. Instead, the pursuit and capture of Kass by two hunky men drives this story into a smexy paced erotic delight. Kass's fears and the reason why she ran away is finally laid out in the open. If Julian and Miguel lance the wounds, perhaps the relationship can start to heal.

Between the steampunk devices and D/s undertones with light SM whipping, I thoroughly enjoyed this tale. My absolute favourite is Julian's home base. He lives under the sea on a vessel like city named Atlantis. People living in Atlantis can watch marine life swimming by at any time. How cool is that?

This book is recommended to steampunk lovers who also enjoy a kinky ménage.
