Fresh Fiction Review

Hurts So Good

Erotic

Power exchange is the name of the game in HURTS SO GOOD, from people who experiment with new sensations and situations, to those who have explored deeply their commitment to D/S relationships. The anthology provides different perspectives that can appeal to different readers, whether they wish to dip their toes into this type of writing or if they constantly submerge themselves into the deep end on a regular basis. In some stories, the excellence shines in the dialogue, the back- and-forth sparring between characters, but in others it is in presenting a particular mindset or philosophy, briefly, within the storyline.

SUMMARY

Craving the endorphin rush that only a well-placed slap can bring? Aching for the pleasurable restraint of your wrists in leather cuffs? In Hurts So Good, editor Alison Tyler presents tantalizing, triple-X tales that are rich in saucy details of lovers paying the price with their bodies. Whether you dream of shedding your inhibitions with the right master, finally feeling the strong hands of a hot female tattoo artist, or switching from top to bottom and back, then this heart-pounding, rush-seeking collection will give you all the joys consensual pain can bring.
