My ass dnfing a book at 96% because the MMC shares her with his friends..

I thought the fucking her in her own pee would make me dnf or her cheating on her worthless husband would make me dnf.

But it's the sharing in the Epilogue.. 🙄🙄🙄 😄😄😄
If you skip and don't read the Epilogue it's a perfect fast smutty novella. With pet play.


Saftey-fmc is lonely and tries everything to get her husband's attention.. he don't care so she fucks mmc.. she hasn't slept with the husband in awhile.

Om drama, cheating, drama, sexy times, no virgins

Recommend-if you don't care for sharing

I should have stayed curious :(

It was three A.M., and I couldn't sleep, so I was scrolling Instagram when this book showed up. I went to GoodReads since I thought the reviews would be interesting, and then saw the book was only 130 pages, so I decided to quell my curiosity and read it.
°❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:・°❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:・
I didn't know really anything about petplay, so I went into this book blind and came out frazzled. I also didn't realize how this book would just be smut. I hated the two scenes that involved weird things with bodily fluids, and all the talk about how gross her husband was made me gag.

I didn't care about the main couple; they could have never seen each other again, and I would not blink an eye.

Having the setting be the states yet using lots of British slang was a choice. Also, the fmc talked about knots in her stomach three separate times, which I don't know if it's a play on words or just the author having a favorite phrase.

HOLY FREAKING SMOKES

EFFIE!!!! MA’AM!!!!

All I can say is someone get me some holy water!!! This novella was unlike any other that I have read! And certainly one of the hottest!!!

We have our lovely FMC Ashley, who is a stay at home wife in DESPERATE need of human affection in every way possible, who is severely neglected by her husband. All he does is work, play games, eat (but fusses about Ashley’s cooking) and is so far up his mommas butt you’d think he was still in utero. And don’t get me started about the biotch that’s her mother in law. That woman deserved to have her lights knocked out.

And then we have our MMC Bobby. I’m going to be 100% honest, at first my mind went to Supernatural just by his name but boy was I wrong!!! He gives off these Lumberjack vibes and I’m all here for it. Our MMC has a knack for making leather BD$M trinkets and boy did that pay off. Who would’ve thought that his craft would bring him his perfect pretty little pet.

This novella SCREAMS one man’s trash is another man’s treasure, and I devoured it.

This right here is why Effie Campbell will always be one of my auto buy authors!!!!

This is my first book by the author, so I went in blind and OOOH BOY. Was that a choice 😂

I'm not one to kink shame, but from nothing to watersports was so out of left field it gave me whiplash. The book was written okay otherwise. I'd say it falls heavily under erotica, as this was 99% pet play, degradation/humiliation smut with a tiny inkling of plot. The characters in general were just too flat for me to truly enjoy them enough to give it a higher rating. Also, I had a bit of ick over the entire book being her living out his kinks that he forced upon her, and it feeling overly manipulative.

I'll try the authors' other books, though, because most of this had decent spice. This one just didn't really connect for me.

This covered some kinks/preferences that I'm not a fan of:

Cheating.
Humiliation.
Pet play-like bark for me pet play.
Slight watersports?

Then the one that I totally did not like, sharing, and it's because the scene isn't structured in such a way that Ashley is the one that asked for it or that they discussed it (actually, I've just realized my whole issue with the book, they didn't discuss anything going on. It was more Bobby's kinks now being shared by Ashley, all because he was the creep that paid attention to her).

The only consolation/good thing is that Ashley learns from her situation and doesn't just move in with Bobby, at his cabin, in the end.

Now I'm not even sure whether I'll continue with Such A Naughty Girl which is what drew me to the series.

DNF at 50%. The triggers said the MMC treated the FMC like a pet, but I assumed that meant collaring her and maybe slight degradation. Nope. The MMC shoved the FMCs face in her urine and banged her from behind. I feel like that should’ve been in the TW. This author isn’t for me.

“Yes, for you, Pet. It’ll forever be only for you.”

Okay if you’re looking for a quick and smutty novella (with no plot and all spice) with pet play LOOK NO FURTHER !!! I went into this one completely blind and I’ve heard such great things about the author which by the way, I’m so glad I did because WOOOW 😮‍💨 !

“I love you as you are, naked and willing. Free for my use whenever I want you.”

So our FMC Ashley is basically in a loveless marriage. She tries and tries to get her husband’s attention but he’d rather play video games or be babied by his mom 🤢. She ends up coming across an ad for kinky leathers as her last resort in trying to get any type of affection from him. So she did what any wife would do and tried to surprise him but it literally backfired on her in the worst way 🥺 Ashley ended up saying fuck it and posted a hot review on the website she bought her leather goods from only to catch the attention of Robbie (the store owner) our MMC AND HOLYYYY FUUUCK I LOVE HIS UNHINGED ASS ! Yes at one point he did some pretty fuck up shit but we love him your honor 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️ and as someone who didn’t think I was into this…. yuuupp new kink unlocked 🔓 OH AND THE EPILOGUE !?!? 😩😩😩😩😩😩 probably one of my favorite scenes !!

“If you are a very good girl and don’t tell anyone about my visit, I’ll come back and fuck you properly. The time at you want to be fucked. My pet would love a bone, right ?”

Will definitely be continuing this series 🙂‍↕️

It's not written badly or anything but it was too much for me. The wholesaler kink, degradation, and sharing was just a no. I didn't enjoy the story because the other stuff have me the ick. It wasn't for me but I know that others might just love it.

——• A hot little novella🔥

Well shit, that was an unexpected one.. a fast paced novella which consisted of her cheating on the loser husband after he stalked, drugged and kidnapped her🥵

Not to mentioned the pet play which did included one scene with her being fucked in her own piss💀 AND THENNN she was shared with his friends… damn 🔥🔥

When I saw that I missed the ARC sign-up for Such A Good Girl, I was ready to cry BIG TEARS!😭 But shoutout to Effie Campbell for coming through and sending me this spicy gem. And OMG, was it worth it!

Ashley is stuck in a marriage where she’s completely invisible. Her husband? A man-child glued to video games and letting his overbearing mommy run his life. And don’t even get me started on the mother-in-law!

Cue Bobby. Lumberjack vibes, leather-making skills for days, and a penchant for turning pretty things into perfect pets.

When Ashley buys a pink collar online, she has no idea her life is about to flip upside down! Bobby sees her review, and he’s obsessed. He’s ready to scoop her up and turn her into his "good girl." 😈💖

Bobby’s got this whole Dom vibe going on, and let���s just say, the spice level?🔥🌶️🔥🌶️Off the charts!

With degradation, praise, pet play—it’s like Effie packed all the heat into this novella and didn’t hold back.

There’s just something about Bobby’s possessive, obsessive energy that makes you sit up and pay attention.

Favorite quotes:
🔥”Hands on the floor, Pet. It’s time to brand your rear with your name until you remember exactly what you are.”
🔥”You’re a devil”
“Then take us to hell. Sir.”

Effie Campbell never misses. This novella had me hooked from the first page, and I couldn’t put it down. The chemistry between Ashley and Bobby is explosive, and the epilogue? Chef’s kiss. 👌

If you haven’t checked out books by Effie, you’re seriously missing out. Effie delivers every single time, and Such A Good Girl is no exception. Hot. Wild. Addictive. 🥵

Tropes you’ll love:
🖤Dom/Sub
🖤Collaring
🖤Pet Play
🖤Heavy Degradation
🖤Praise
🖤Obsessed MMC
🖤Sharing is caring😉

This one’s for my spicy novella lovers! 🔥

If creeps bad, why hot?

Thank you to Crystal for gifting me this copy when I was going through a family loss. She hoped it would help me escape for a bit, and it absolutely did.

I love how insular this story is. There are two main characters, and two secondary characters and no one else, and I loved that in this novella.

If you've read other books by Effie you know how seamless her writing is. The story moves fast, and will make you question some things about yourself.

Controversial take, but I love that Effie doesn't tell us what the MMC looks like, other than his sexy-AF forearms. Honestly, that's all I need to know. Like, maybe a neck tattoo would be good too, but I'll imagine that in on my own.

Read this if you love
- Stalker/Kidnapping
- Dubcon
- Humiliation play
- Pet play
- JP/OTT MMC
- Sexy forearms

This book is best read in your cage, while waiting for your owner to take care of you.

EVERYTHING I didn't know I was missing! The way that Effie packed so much into such little pages is astonishing. I never read a novella and it felt complete until this one! the way Ashley felt touched a part of me as a woman. The way Bobby seen her, the way he and her were together! I loved the spice! It was the hottest Pet Play scenes I have ever read. New Kink unlocked...as a woman I appreciate a nice set of hands and forearms. Bobby has amazing fore arms. This is not light and fluffy so don't pick this up if you need sunshine and rainbows. This is a dark romance with stalking, pet play, kidnapping but, it does have a HEA. This will definitely go on my reread shelf!!

P.S
The audio is PHENOMEANL!!

If I could give this book zero stars then I would. What in the holy fuck was this monstrosity?!? I like some weird shit but this blew even me away. Some of the things this man says and thinks are abominable. For instance: “you’ll leak like an over stuffed eclair” WTF. This man is sexualising a very nice, innocent dessert.

Save yourself the trouble and DO NOT READ THIS BOOK. It’s absolutely shite

This mmc was not a Hot Creep but just a plain old creep, disgusting and weird

This author needs to rethink their choice of career

We listen and we DON'T judge. 👀

I like to think that I'm kinky (mentally, of course) but this enlightened me on my hard limits. I thought the whole cage and “apple juice” scenes would make me dnf but I mentally checked out and came DANGEROUSLY close to it (and that's kinda major, considering DNF-ing makes me feel guilty, lmao) when he shares her. Like in MY opinion, we would've been fine if the author had ended the book without all of that but oh well.

One man's meat is another man's poison.


Cheerio!

We all know I’m a sucker for good girl quotes, and spicy books! This novella is no different! A short spicy read that is 🔥😍. I devoured this book, and cannot wait to read more!


Blurb;
Ashley is married to a man who neglects her needs. Physically and emotionally. When she buys a pretty collar and crawls to him, he laughs at her. But she needs someone to notice her. She posts a review on the leatherworker’s page expressing her disappointment at her husband’s reaction. With a picture.

The man who created the collar notices her.

Stalks her.

Takes her.

And helps her realise that she is very much desired.

Tropes; 😏

* Pet play
* d*gradation
* Spousal neglect
* Cheating
* Crawl for me
* Cages
* St*lking
* Realising she deserves more

Go download it now, you won’t regret it!

My Review:
4.8 ⭐️ 4 🌶️

Such a Good Girl by Effie Campbell serves up the ultimate spicy twist on a “bored housewife” trope. Ashley’s stuck in a marriage so cold it makes her crave anything warmer than a sigh from her husband. So, when her pink leather collar fails to wake him up, she leaves a review—and that’s where Bobby, a leather craftsman with a talent for training, slides in. Suddenly, Ashley’s got all the attention she’s been missing, and Bobby’s more than ready to teach her what “pet care” really means.

From collars and cages to praise and punishment, Ashley finds herself in Bobby’s world, where she’s not just wanted but worshipped. The novella dives right into the deliciously dark side, balancing obsession with devotion, and leaves you questioning who’s leading and who’s following. It’s wicked, fast, and so hot you might just need your own collar by the end.

Squee! So so 🔥🥵

Effie Campbell is that girl!

Basic Story Deets:
Soooo what's a lonely (31 yo) housewife to do when her husband neglects her and makes fun of her freaky deaky wishes?
🤔 message the leathermaker who made your collar & cuffs telling him it didnt work because your hubby was like "ewwww".

Cool. And, what if that leathermaker was like nah I got you!
🤔 Appalled he plans to stalk your house home invasion style to try out that collar himself while calling you a pretty pet forcing you to pet your kitty and come all on his hands all while your hubby is away 🥴

Whew..."but I'm married"/"and what that got to do with me" never hit so hard. Some freaky deaky we get:

🐾Ok dark romance fans....so if the leathermaker for your collar, rubs one out the wank bank to coat your collar in his babymaking batter so your collar would always have a piece of him would you say marriage material or coffee date material?

🐾he makes dingaling moulds from his own model for her to use as a reward for being a good girl! It's a
d!ck-in-a-box...so thoughtful

🐾full pet play ladies and gentlemen. Full pet play. Just see how he gets that tail in her 😁

🐾Ooof and how do you teach a naughty pet a lesson after they messed themselves...stay tuned

🐾OMG the epilogue. Not my usually cup of tea but it was hot and fit the couple so well. ✋🏾 I mean when he says free use he means free use

Look the conflict is low angst. It's great smex scenes but the romance narrative does get developed as we progress through the hot as sin smex.

Hot. Hot. HOT.
Effie, you warned us about Chapter 16… but babes, Chapter 15 had me screaming WHAT. THE. ACTUAL. F×CK. 🐶 THE dog bowl?!

Collars? Cuffs?? TAILS???
This was a full-on smutty spiral of ownership, obedience, and off-the-charts heat, and I loved every filthy second.

She’s his perfect little pet, and he? He doesn’t play nice, he plays dirty, and I mean that in the best, most depraved way. This book didn’t just toe the line of kink, it clawed over it, growled at it, and made it beg.
Total 5-star read if you’re into possessive obsession, humiliation kink, and being claimed in every possible way 😈🖤

Okay, so please check your trigger warnings at the door and please know, Effie made the list, she checked it twice…we’re all about to find out who’s naughty 😈 😂

I’ve never thought about pet play a day in my life. I never really thought the humiliation stuff was sexy. Enter Effie to change everything I thought I knew.

Lord help us all with this spicy novella. Make sure you’re in a safe space and are able to keep one hand free for…other things…at all times cause you never know when the mood might strike. 🥵🌶️🔥

Thank you, Effie for the ARC!

What a wild read. So many k!nks in one and I loved them all. Pet plãy to the extreme and it was hot. Obviously don’t read this one if you have any aversions to any aspect of pet plãy. You’ll be disappointed haha but if you like it? You’ll love this! Her husband is such a loser. And his mom? Goodness she needs lessons on boundaries. The epilogues was hot af.

Read this out of morbid curiosity and it was like reading someone’s poorly written fanfiction that never made it out of the drafts

This is straight porn with lazy plot to the point that it was essentially plotless

Like I get there should be a space for kinks or whatever and that wasn’t my issue but damn maybe at least try a little to make it an actual story

"I’d longed for a pet of my own. Sweet Ashley needed a good owner. One who would treat her the way she needed. One who’d show her how to be adored, show her what she deserved. An owner like me."

‘You’re a devil,’ I laughed, scooping her hips and rolling her beneath me. ‘Then take us to hell. Sir.’

Is this book wrong? Oh yeah. But hey welcome to dark romance.
