ummmm, this story was different. I'm still not exactly sure how I feel about it. It for sure kept me on my toes, just waiting for the next thing Nora would do.

Soren scared the ever loving crap out of me. However in the end, I'm not as scared of him, which is really stupid considering where Zach found Nora, but something changed about him for me. I can't say I'm on the Soren boat yet, but in the end, he just didn't seem AS scary.

Zach was 200% my guy. He is the guy I love to read about. He is the ...more

I'm not sure where to begin with this one. I usually rant and rave about the males and how I love their alpha ness...but in this one I'm in love with Nora, yes, so much I want to be her sometimes. Nora is a famous erotica writer, but she is also a famous Dominatrix. I love how she says what's on her mind, says what she wants and takes what she wants at times. "“Wes doesn’t want me, but he doesn’t like it if I want someone else. Kid’s gotta learn that he can’t have his cake and not eat me, too.”. I'm not sure where to begin with this one.

"“Wes doesn’t want me, but he doesn’t like it if I want someone else. Kid’s gotta learn that he can’t have his cake and not eat me, too.”. See what I mean.....yes I want to be her sometimes!!!!

Well there's a few players in this one.

Wes: yes sweet, virgin intern Wes. He loves Nora, doesn't agree or understand her world (but really who does, it's sooo crazy!!!!). "Not with me, Nora. Don’t pull that writer romance crap on me. He beats you and you let him. And if this is love then he shouldn’t love you anymore”

Zach: he's our proper married (well kind of) British fellow, who takes his work seriously and her editor. It's all about the book, right? Well until he meets Nora. He is so intrigued by her. "“You’re beautiful enough and wild enough that you make me think things I never thought I would think again and feel things I didn’t think I’d ever feel again. And you make me afraid I’ll start forgetting things I don’t ever want to forget. You’re dangerous.”"

Søren: yes the infamous Søren, the top Dominant at the club. So powerful, so insightful, so scarey and oh so intriguing. Nora was his sub for 10 years and they love each other. "If I were omnipotent you would still be with me, little one. I didn’t have the strength to stop you from leaving”

Nora: yes The Siren. She's a Domme, a sub, a switch. She's conflicted at times. These men love her, but she doesn't want them to give up themselves for her. Wes would have to give up his innocence, Zach his wife and Søren, the "others" who need him. ""There are only two reasons why you leave someone you're still in love with. Because its the right thing to do, or the only thing to do"

So yes very complex, very fucked up, but oh so freaking hot too!!!! My favorite non sex scene, yes the Aston Martin, OMG!!! I wanted to be Nora in that scene, the power she possessed, the control, plus the hot guy and the hot car....lol. When she said this to Zach about her night at the club, I wanted to die, it was oh so Nora like: "“I’ll tell you this…I didn’t have sex with a man. And it was so much fun it oughta be illegal”

So yes I loved this book, at times I thought "I'm going to hell for reading and enjoying this book"!!!!!! Can't wait to read the next book, so on to "The Angel" ...more

Favorite book of 2012! After reading fifty shades during the summer I got into an erotica kick and a friend recommended this book. I could not put it down. Nora, Wesley, Soren, Kingsley, Zachary totally took up space in my world and refused to leave. Tiffany has written more than just an erotica book. Her storytelling is AMAZING. The details and character development are truly enthralling. I have so many quotes saved that tug at my heartstrings. Nora is by far one of the greatest characters I ha ...more

Tiffany Reisz, you have rendered me speechless.

I completely loved every single bit of this book. It was so well written and engaging. I don't even think I could conjure up any words to form a review that would give this book justice.

"Show - don't tell."
This book definitely won't disappoint.

Note: 'Gravity' by Sara Bareilles was playing on repeat on my iPod. It just reminds me of N&S. ...more

Wow!

After reading all the reviews for this book, I parked it as a 'To Read', however yesterday I noticed it was only 20p on Amazon... Bargain!

It has taken me a day to finish and I absolutely loved it! Nora is such a character, and I can understand how women get girl crushes :| Nora is freaking hot! I did find myself wanting her and little Wes to get it on soooooo badly. The flirting between them was funny, he was so shy around her. He is an absolute sweetie and a diamond catch for any girl that ...more
