You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.

I thought it was pretty good. The sex parts weren't bad but the whole plot about money and car-chases and bad guys was too OTT. For turning me on, it was good. For a book, it was crap.
Quote by Poppet
I've read these books twice..
This has always been a hard one for me.
For the whole factor of the BDSM thing is a damn joke. That is NOT BDSM at all. It’s just a little kink in the bedroom. -.-
For the fact its three books is a joke, because this is all written in the mere matter of months, and all this happened is stupid. You meet a boy, you like a boy, you submit to boy, top the boy, kick the bdsm out all together, break up, get back together, fight, ignore each other, car chases, kidnappings, attempted (unspeakable), crazy exes, overly rich man, blue collar girl, let’s not forget she’s a virgin, of course. The sex isn’t bad, but the odds of a couple orgasming together every single time together at the same time, is impossible. The whole talking in her head was kind of cool but everything was Oh my, Oh god. That was also a bit dumb.
The books HAVE positional, if it was written by someone who knew how to actually write and not just throw words together.
And how annoying that she gets Christian, bestie gets older brother, and her guy friend gets the sister. Gag me. Except poor Jose who gets no one, except throw up on his shoes.

It did make me want to find serious BDSM novels, though - deep. well written - and they do NOT exist.
gave up.

I can help you there, if if you don't mind the bdsm being between 2 women... oh, and it's free.

My sex shoppe was out of it so they convinced me that Bared To You was just as hot.
El Wrongo. I gave up about 2/3 of the way in. I can't relate to mega rich folks unless they're Rednecks who won the Lottery or Power Ball. Not enough sex to keep my interest.
I wasted $16. I coulda bought AMMO.FRRpPcK2oIUoEbEf
Quote by Tara85
I absolutely hated them (stopped half way into the second one, don't know why I even went so far).
She: virgin (of course) who never did as much as masturbate. Just not interested in sex until *he* comes along. Of course, she's rather poor but supposed to be smart and witty. And pretty. Of course. Cinderella.
He: very rich. Very traumatised, heart of gold (obviously) beneath his apparent need to dominate. She is the only one who ever ever got through to him.
A really poor Cinderella re-writing. The poor but oh so lovely woman who is the only one who can save this poor rich wretch from the hell of bdsm he's trapped into. And they cum together all the time. Of course. And they're going to get married even thought there are evil dragons outside threatening their lives and happiness.
The writing is poor, the sex didn't turn me on because I found it rather ridiculous, the whole thing is not credible even one second (and I need a bit of realism to be able to go along with a story).
If anyone could explain to me why this crap has such a huge commercial success? Why this series and not something a bit more... (whatever adjective you want).
Now I have to go and find a good story to read on here... just to get those bloody flower-pink-girly-dream-butterscotch-marshmallow sex out of my mind again... :-)
It's a bonus if he's a sex God. . . but I'll take the Devil, too - he knows how to fuck good, as well ;) But I did think it was ridiculous that 50 could get off countless times. LOL - like he was cumbeer always on tap.I think the reason why I just can't help but like Christian in the beginning though the rest of the story and Ana can go to hell and I wouldn't miss it - is that he reminds me so much of my husband. When I read 50 my husband was deployed. . . that heavily taints my opinion on things.
During one deployment I became obsessed with that stupid god aweful movie Titanic and I cried and cried and cried - and now that movie peeves me off to no end, I hate it. LOL . . . and heaven forbid when I was drunk during another deployment and wrote Henry Rollins this long ass cheesy love letter and he wrote me back - I watched all of his standup too see how alike my husband and him were. . . they look alike, same jokes, and full of funny curmudgeonly ways.
(and now I'm officially insane)

Waste of time. First, it was based on a fan fiction on Twilight, so of course it's going to suck...pun not intended. Second, the characters were an absolute bore. 
Third, the sex scene made me want to
