review 1: Expecting a baby mama and an uber jock dominant getting it on? This is not the book for you. One should know that Ms. Faulkner wouldn't write something as dismal or cliche. Into His Keeping is a sweet love lost romance reunited with some kinky D/s hawtness. I have to admit, the domination scenes in this story near the end are panty wetting goodness which is why this is a 3.5 star book.Holden is a very sexy man. He's a man who's had one goal in his life. His sole purpose is to find the first woman he loved and win her back. When Jill finds him again, the explanation of his disappearance is almost unbelievable. As a plot device, it works. One of the other threads for this plot, specifically the criminal element did not make this story better. It was okay.From a cha... moreracter perspective, Holden is the kind of fantasy romantic alpha dominant women dream about. He's rich. He's sensitive. He is commanding and he's super hot. What is really attractive about him is his possessive nature. He's possessive and protective which is what pulls women in and makes many of them swoon. He's not creepy overly possessive which helps. He isn't w/o flaws which is a good call on Ms. Faulkner's part.Jill is usual damsel in distress who has not one, but two men wanting to sweep her off her feet. She's fragile and sweet. She may have a strong core in that she figured out how to survive all alone and pregnant, but overall she's forgettable to the reader. The BDSM scenes were well done and erotically smoking hawt. I could have done with a couple more panty wetting scenes. As it was, it did get the juices flowing and the vibrating humming. Recommended for kinky readers who love happily ever afters.
review 2: I really really enjoyed this. This book just will not leave my head.It's a very intense and emotional story and is only slightly more controversial than my usual erotic reads. Personally speaking I find that, as I read more and more erotic fiction, my limits for kink are ever changing, so having read this book now rather than say a year ago has allowed me to appreciate it in a way that I probably wouldn't have before.I see from a couple of the other reviews that some people have been turned off by the extreme dirty talk, but for me, I loved it. This is because I could see how much the heroine was enjoying it, and it was really nicely balanced out by how gentle and attentive the hero was outside of the bedroom.I love a bit of dirty talk and although this is perhaps a little bit over the line for a lot of people, I think this writer is skilled enough in her style to actually have made something quite titillating even if it's not strictly your 'thing'. less
