Sweet lord.. the intensity in this!!! I took off 1 star because as thrilling as that was, I couldn't handle a second reading. And because I don't really see the appeal in delaying (guess I'm all about instant gratification).

If you can get into the feel of it, my god, the story is powerful. I came close to having the same sensitivity as Nicky had by the end of it, when even air felt like a caress. My mouth was dry, my heart rate went up and I could barely read on, unable to know which way the scale would tip. I'd classify this as hardcore BDSM but with a sensual touch to soften the edges.

Nicky can't get chastity out of his head. He needs this and he wants it from Cris. Maybe that why Cris let him go before? I would have loved Cris' perspective as this and the first part are told strictly from Nicky perspective. I wish this was a little longer as it seems like this is the last one. The ending felt like a HFN.

I have read 3 books of this author so far. Even though each one of them is super steamy and highly erotic, author just stops with handjobs or blowjobs and has so far shied away from writing a full on penetration scene. With the way author wrote about the sexy stuff, I am sure he/she could have blown the readers away if such a scene was included.

Everything you ever wanted to know about cock cages and more. So much more. Like, OUCH THAT FUCKING SOUNDS LIKE IT HURTS more.

From a purely scientific view, this was interesting--e.g., oh, some people like to stick a small rod up their urethra because, ya know, it comes with the cock cage, and a man's gotta pee when a man's gotta pee.

My scientific verdict? OUCH THAT FUCKING SOUNDS LIKE IT HURTS.

From a purely erotic point of view, I enjoyed the sexual chemistry between the two protagonists, Nicky Hazard, guitar player for the rock band Outright Disaster, and Cris Warren, singer for the rock band Comelian. This is the follow-up to "Down A Notch" in which Nicky's poor peen was put behind bars, but evidently Jail Bird Mr. Cock didn't learn his lesson because he's back for more.

Who knew chafing could be so sexy? Well, I'm not so sure it's all that sexy, but Nicky enjoys it, so you go ahead and rock on, Mr. Lock That Cock.

Cris is in control of Nicky's orgasms--or lack thereof, and I do admit that I enjoy a bit of orgasm denial in my books. Then again, it's not my testicles that are so swollen that the distended veins form a map of France. Sex AND geography for the win.

My only pet peeve--do most m/m books have to have the requisite wrestling scene before the menz get down to bidness? That's just so 80s. I think you're allowed to cut to the chase these days. Unless you like to wrestle as foreplay. I find that it messes my hair up and maybe break a rib or two, so I tend to avoid it.

Yeah, this book was a little on the erotic fringe for me, but I couldn't look away, sort of like a cock-on-cock car crash. Good thing Nicky's peen had its own roll cage. Suck that, NASCAR!

This won't be everyone's cup of tea, especially if you're the type to stick your pinky out when drinking it, and in that case, just pass this one up and go back to Danielle Steele where apparently no one is born with a urethra.

Kinky, but not romance-y. I hoped it would be better than the 1st book, but the denial thing still continues. Not interested.
