Christine Feehan - Desolation Road
I am giving this a low 2 out of 5 stars.
Okay. I read a lot and have encountered many different kinks, etc. Most are relatively benign and/or simply not my taste but I can ignore a lot. The H in this particular one has a kink where he wants the h to be a kitten during sex at times. I wish I meant that metaphorically. This is full on, hands and knees, tail, collar, making kitten "noises", no speaking and basically turning every sex act into some kind of kitten related behaviour (and yes, as in most of this series where sex is done in the presence of others, that would include doing this in front of everyone). She studies videos of kittens to copy how they move. Fortunately this is not an every single time issue but when it does come up like that, it is extremely off putting and uncomfortable to read. Pretty much the entire wedding night chapter, and trust me it goes on forever, is eye bleachingly tough to read and I admit I skipped a lot of it. From the whole acting like a kitten in front of others to the seriously rapey vibe with the other guy, it just felt really icky and unpleasant in general.
Finally get through that mess and the next thing I know they are having sex, in public of course, and the H is inserting several orange spice ball baked goods into the h (he does several at once, not just in and out individually) and eating them out. First of all, that cannot be good for her vaginal health. Honestly all I could think about was what if some got left up in there? Doesn't they get crumbly and smushed? How long before it went bad? Why is everyone there to watch? Why am I almost preferring the kitty sex at this point? What the hell is the next book gonna cover? Honestly it is a good thing that I am not in a relationship cause this book has put me off sex for the foreseeable future.
Overall, too much weird sex, not enough story and way too much child abuse and torture related over and over again. Sorry but this is a dud and managed to make me gag at the thought of sugary baked goods so it sucks for that alone.
