Tied to You

I think this new author's debut book is off to a very strong promising start, and I hope that more kinky reads and pure dark pleasure are waiting around the corner.
If you're a fan of triggering topics like dubious consent, torture, kidnapping and violence; if you love abundance of dirty talk and dark humour; if a game of a lamb and wolf where the lost lamb is doomed from the start and the wolf has the traps from the start knowing every move of his little lamb, is something you enjoy - then this is the right story to dive in.
It was obvious from the very beginning who was the lamb and who was the wolf here.
I am sure that somewhere deep, down, in the most hidden corners of his soul, Seb knew that starting work as a bartender in an establishment ruled by the Russian mafia, is a recipe for trouble. But desperate times called for desperate measures. Unfortunately when he stepped foot in Starlight, he immediately attracted the attention of Dima Kozlov. So what followed for Seb was quite scary, fast and rude bi awakening while Dima was just stretching his claws, marking his territory and setting the perfect trap for his frightened new toy.
It's safe to say that the way their relationship took off, the game of cold - hot, the constant push and pull was “so heady like the most powerful drug in the world.”
What I liked about Seb was his flexibility and healthy sense of self preservation which helped him to quickly adapt and merge seamlessly into the darkness of his new underground life as well as the bold way he embraced and explored the new unexpected side of his sexuality.
But Dima was the anti hero who really made me smile and sing - his fierce determination and brutality, violent and aggressive personality, possessiveness beyond any sense of normalcy and filthy but intriguing imagination. He was unstoppable force of nature - direct to the point of being crude, harsh, manipulative and unpredictable but at the same time loyal, considerate and strangely endearing in the cruel but fair way he watched over his family.
