Synopsis: 

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.

This is the first book in the Cravings series by Rachael Orman. This book is free in the Kindle store if you are interested in it.

I think I am probably fascinated by this book for one because they reveal the BDSM community and how it works. Totally not my scene but fascinating. I also enjoyed the way that John and Alix found out that their similar addictions went together. The whole blindfolded submissive made it interesting to have anticipation for what might happen when the blindfold suddenly came off and it revealed who “Master” truly was.

Just a completely interesting read. This is part of a three book series and I have already dig into book two for the ongoing saga of John and Alix.
