Not quite what I expected

3 stars

Not the book I expected. Thought I was getting a victorian historical novel, turns out it's actually a monster fucker porn-with-very-little-plot book. This will teach me to actually read dedications and blurb. The writing was fine and it was a quick read. However, I did not like the protagonist, a hyper-sexual "pick me girl", who is perfect in every way, and the immediate and total lack of any actual tension in her "arrangement" strained all credulity. Not for me.
