This was a lovely surprise, better than I'd expected. A novella which I had as a free read, that deals with older people, the fifty+ age group where issues of professional work stresses plus serious health issues, of living or dying, plus the effects of long term married sexual relationships which from the mundane suddenly becomes important, life changing times of, is this the end or can something be saved? It follows the characters Mike and Shannon through their fears and what they are losing, through their journey and experiences from vanilla sex to changes and experiencing aspects of lite BDSM like spanking, control and discipline, blindfold or bondage but will it be enough to save the health, the life, or the marriage? It made me think about my own relationship, health, mortality, not taking it or the other person in your life for granted...and yes it brought tears to my eyes. It has very few errors and is worth reading...a good three stars.
