Title: Addict (Cravings Series #1)
Author: Rachael Orman
Genre: Erotic Romance/BDSM
Publication Date: December 22, 2014
My name is Alix and I am addicted to sex.
Had been for years. I thought I learned how to live a normal life, but that’s the thing about addiction, it creeps back up when you least expect it. There is no one there for me, no one I can turn to for help. Until I’m given a chance to explore a side of myself I’d always kept locked away. I was lost…until him. I can’t tell you who he is, or why he does the things he’s done. All I can say is I hope one day I behave well enough to take off the blindfold and see the man who controls my addiction. My Master.
My name is John and I am addicted to control.
I tried to deny the dominate side of my personality. I didn’t want to admit how much I enjoyed the power, how much I enjoyed causing pain. That is until the woman I’d been secretly been stalking waltzed into a BDSM club right in front of me. All bets are off. She will be mine.

Together our addictions feed off each other, fueling the fire that burns within. Until suddenly the fire is too hot to handle, burning everything in its path. The pain and scars we’d both come into our fragile relationship with are split wide open, exposing more than either of us can handle, possibly leaving nothing behind to salvage from the ashes.

**Warning: Intended for audiences 18+ due to explicit sex & vulgar language, mention of rape/abuse**

I can’t pretend to even know what it would be like to suffer every day as a person addicted to sex.  I would imagine it would be hard to  stay focused on the task at hand especially when an object of your desire walks into your work place.  Alix has that issue in this story.  Her “object” is a handsome man who comes into the hotel she works in on the same schedule daily and she makes sure she’s where she can see him as he gets his key and goes to his room.

John has watched Alix for quite sometime.  She’s his obsession.  She just doesn’t know it – yet.  How and when to make his move, if ever, is the question.

His dream comes true the moment Alix steps through the door into a BDSM party.  He watches her.  Studies her.  She’s made his day – and she doesn’t even know it.

So in order not to spoil the story for you – I think the relationship between the characters seem to be real and they interact well with each other.  There’s definite sexual tension between Alix and John.  He’s helping her and she’s easing his obsession.  I think there could be some more Domination on John’s part and I didn’t really see the need for his secrecy.

However, like all good stories, there’s a few secrets and barriers that need to be broken through.  Their relationship, such as it is, is not built on full disclosure.  For a BDSM relationship – that can cause some major issues.

The biggest question toward the end of the book is – will Alix and John survive their secrets?

I was given a copy of this book by the author for an honest review.

 

 

Mother by day. Writer by night. I spend a majority of my day with my children and reading while my nights are filled with the sound of the keyboard as I work on my next work. 



I have written in F/F, F/F/M, F/F/F and then of course F/M genres…. So, beware, I do not always have the most ‘traditional’ scenes. And one day I will venture into M/M, just have to find the time. 



I love to try new things and learn from every piece of work I write. I’ll write just about anything once to learn from it. I’ve even ventured out of my normal erotica genre into Monster Erotica. Doubt you’ll find me writing anything not erotic as you can barely get me to even read something out of that category, but then again, you never know what I might try next. 



Never stop learning. Try everything at least once.
