review 1: Another super story by Kim - just wished it was longer :)Darren Clarke and Jamie Baker have been quietly flirting with each other in their office for ages, and when Darren wins a weekend away at a 'special' hotel, he invites Jamie to go with him.The 'packing leather' of the title is precisely what Jamie packs in his suitcase - to Darren's quiet, but delighted surprise. Jamie is courageous enough to know what he wants and to want Darren to give it to him. And before the weekend is over, they both get what they want (and need)! :)
review 2: 'Packing Leather' is a fun start to a new series. The focus is less on the sun and the beach than the falling into place of a D/s relationship that has clearly been a while in the making. The 'weekend away' was more of an excu
... morese for the two men to come together than anything else. I liked that, since the main reason I love Kim Dare's books is the human angle, not necessarily the setting.Darren, the experienced Dom, and Jamie, the new sub, are a delightful pair. I loved that Darren was as insecure at times as his new sub. He 'mastered' those feelings like a Dom, though, without being callous or overly macho. He is very invested in making this new relationship work beyond the weekend and is appalled when he realizes that Jamie has any doubts.Jamie may be a 'beginning level' sub, but he knows what he wants. I loved that he made his own choices - facing the 'punishment' when it came with a mix of trepidation and longing. He may have been overwhelmed with the newness of actually experiencing some of his fantasies, but, as Darren remarks, he has the balls to go through with it.If you like reading about hot men who indulge in some power play while they figure out their relationship, you will probably enjoy this story. less
