Phenomenal piece of cliterature 🤌🏼

• m/m • kink • explicit • novella •
So today I started a quest if you will 🤣 A kinky novella alphabet quest … 👀
Book 1 - ‘A’ for Authority kink.
There was definitely Authority, with the new army recruit and the drill sergeant, but this was definitely more degradation and humiliation, without the aftercare. But our MMCs were both into that so who am I to judge? 🤷♀️
So this quest, I discovered, was not for the faint hearted… The smut was definitely smutting, then nek minnit, there were feet involved. And not just any ordinary feet, but stinky sweaty straight out of the army boots feet… 👀 Again… who am I to judge… (but also, this is me not judging) ->
Look, ngl this was at about 40% and I seriously considered DNFing - but I was brave! (There were no more foot themed smex scenes after that I’m happy to report).
Still I read on 😅 hey it was entertaining, although I admit to getting a little bored and skimming the pages and pages of the sex scene finale 🎉
3⭐️ probably being generous here…

Turns out I’m not into this extreme type of physical and psychological degradation guys. Hale is too mean and it doesn’t work for me, happy that it does for Lane tho.
Yall ever say “You are pissing me the fuck off, I’m gonna shove my foot up ur aah”? Well, you won’t believe what I just read.

Very fast read. This is basically pure porn with minimal plot 🤣🤣
If you enjoy humiliation kink, this book is for you.
Lane loves it. Hale loves giving it. It ended semi ok.
It’s fiction. Go with it.

this wasn’t entirely awful, and it definitely wasn’t good either. there were definitely a few scenes that had me internally cringing, but there were also some decently well-written spicy scenes that i enjoyed. for what it was… it was just — okay. i’m more eager to see what the other books within this series have to offer because i think those will be more up my alley, admittedly.
note: definitely be sure to check the content warnings before reading this book. there’s a lot of toxic masculinity within this book and homophobic language used due to the setting of the book taking place within a military setting.

𓂃★3.5 ᵎᵎ This was hot as HELLLLUHH I must say I'm intrigued and want to read the rest of the kinky abc anthology...You read the description and that's exactly what you're getting. This was definitely something you read when you're looking for something quick and freaky, not much plot but this isn't a book I'm gonna harshly rate just because it's short and lacks plot, but sometimes I'm just looking for something like that. I'm pleased, the end was actually really sweet and unexpected.

Omg, I just finished this book and I have thoughts. As a reviewer, and as a mistress,I went through a full rollercoaster of reactions. The absence of aftercare at the beginning? Honestly, a major point of contention for me. It immediately set off alarms, and from a critical standpoint, the dynamic initially reads as deeply unhealthy for any real-life BDSM framework.
That said… the author clearly leans into a dark, unapologetically filthy M/M dynamic, and wow it commits. The progression of their relationship is messy, morally gray, and definitely not meant to be aspirational, but it’s undeniably compelling from a narrative perspective.
My sub was completely hooked too, especially with the heavy emphasis on humiliation and degradation. The objectification? Intense. The way one of them is reduced to nothing but an object… it’s dark, it’s provocative, and it absolutely delivers for readers who enjoy that kind of power imbalance in fiction.
From a structural standpoint, I will say the emotional payoff hits when finally aftercare is introduced. That shift adds a layer of depth that, for me, redeemed a lot of the earlier tension.
The ending itself? Strong, satisfying, and thematically consistent. The epilogue, though… I’m still a little conflicted personally, it didn’t fully land for me.
Overall, as a review: this is a bold, divisive M/M read with a heavy focus on dark dynamics, and while it’s not a model for healthy relationships, it’s incredibly engaging within its genre. Definitely recommended just know what you’re walking into 😉

idk how to review this lol. not bad.

I was not ready for whatever this was 😂
What I expected: a novella that explored an authority k*nk between a recruit and his superior.
I mean, from the title and blurb, that’s the impression I got. I was expecting it to be erotica. That’s fine.
What you will actually get when you read this book:
-mostly degradation and humiliation, rather than just authority (to the point where it almost feels mislabeled?), followed by some praise at the end
-100% erotica, no plot or character development at all in 144 pages
-check the TW on this because there’s also crazy foot stuff, nasty smell stuff, and worst of all the “love interest” forces someone to perform s*xual acts on the main character, that the person does not consent to
Look, I’ll read anything once. And I don’t get triggered, so I didn’t read any content warnings. But this book had me more disgusted than feeling anything else. I found myself thinking things such as:
“Did he actually just use that word?”
“He put his foot WHERE?”
“He smelled like WHAT?”
“He licked WHAT???”
Anyways, I can solidly say it wasn’t for me, but if you’re super into the k*nks listed above, maybe you’ll find this hot?

There are things I loved in this and things I hated. It feels kind of all over the place and the kinks feel disjointed instead of woven together into the characters. But that's probably because the characters themselves were all over the place. I feel like more pages were necessary for character development here; it felt like the story was broken up into two halves - first half being degradation and almost hate (self and otherwise), with the second half being more accepting and caring, but there wasn't really a middle ground to join the two.
There are also a couple very crass inner monologue and dialogue moments that I think were included due to the military setting, but actually sat rather uncomfortably and felt forced. Like the characters didn't feel like they'd say or think those things, but "military" and toxic masculinity. Things are toxic in here in general, so buckle up. Check the tws/cws before hopping in.
There was also a lack of character descriptions or even a timeline/setting timeframe to reference. I guess it's not surprising necessary since this is pure smut, but it would have been appreciated imo.
All in all, I ate this up and I'm immediately running to the next book in this collection, but it's not a favorite read of the year by any means.

Hale is the drill sergeant of wet dreams honestly! At first I really didn’t know how this was going to turn out but I was happy with the ending- I’m sure Lane was too 😉.

I have no idea if I liked that or if I was just so intrigued I couldn’t put it down.
The Authoritarian kink may not be for me but wow did a learn a lot about myself on this journey 😂

I saw there weren’t many reviews so I really wanted to write one. Firstly, a lot of the negative ones would’ve been avoided if people read full trigger and kink list! I read it and I was ready and excited. (not a fan of foot play either but the way this was done was hot because it was all about submission and degradation)
this was super short!!! i would give up everything to get a full length book where we get more of what happens to them and with them. I honestly didn’t expect the ending to be that way, where it seemed to be he got a bit softer but that’s what made me crave for more book. This is a super fun and fast paced read though, FULL SMUT with a sprinkle of plot.
I love this dynamic so much. I loved how it was done and how raw and honest Lane always was. I wish we could’ve gotten dual POV because I bet Hale’s thoughts were crazy.
This is my first book by this author and I hadn’t considered the other in the series because I chose this one specifically based on the kinks and dynamics but it was so good I’m going to read the others even if they’re not my typical reads!

4.25⭐️
This randomly came up on my TikTok and winning!
This was legit. It felt like a real story with a beginning, middle, end. There were stakes, conflict interspersed with all the smut. WHICH genuinely felt like there was emotion behind it and all scenes felt a little different and not overly repetitive.
Listen… if you like this k*nk. I am happy for you. There were things that happened, I didn’t even realize could be done.
Only real quibble seems to be an editing issue: p102 He says ‘I’ve never kissed a man before,” which I was like you took a literal foot in your ass but haven’t kissed before, sure AND THEN 2 pages later says ‘I’ve never kissed like this. Kissing always felt like a mean to an end-foreplay, distraction, something to get through before the real thing.’ I did like right after this: ‘But Hale makes it feel like it’s the point. Like if he kissed me like this for hours, I’d still beg for more.’ That was really sweet, lol.
Listen - I was so proud of Lane for earning “it” at the end. Like all that degradation and orgasm refusal amounted to something. Not sure if that’s the emotion I should’ve felt but I was proud of my boy.
I had to knock .25⭐️ for the epilogue. That was the craziest thing in the book: VIETNAM! That boy is gonna die. I hope in the last book all these couples get together somehow and there’s this old couple who gives them a knowing nod or something. Like we made it.
I am all about life long learning so I WILL be reading the rest of this series. What IS Dollification (book 4)? What is the “Z” book 26 gonna be about?
I need rules. I crave control. And nothing gets me off like an authoritarian figure.
I’m pathetic. And I want him to see it.
My throat convulses again, aching like hell, but I fight the urge to pull back. My whole body screams for air, but I hold still. I take it. Because that’s what good soldiers do. They follow orders. They obey.
“Yeah,” he mutters, half to himself. “You like this. You need this.”
“Slower. I wanna watch you degrade yourself for me.”
“Do you want to be used or do you want to be owned?” “Owned, sir,” I say, feeling ridiculously timid even after everything. “You want someone to own you, but not everyone’s interested in sloppy fucking seconds.”
My own c*ck is rock hard. He doesn’t care because this is not about me. It’s about him. His power. My humiliation. And that’s what I want. I want him to break me open and keep going.
He watches me for a moment longer, then smiles. “Your cock’s twitching just because I’m speaking. You want me to touch you?” “Yes, sir.” “Too fucking bad.”
I always stopped before the edge. Always. Because Hale hadn’t given permission. And I’m not disobedient. Not anymore, at least.
“You’ve earned a reward.” He stops just inches from me. I can see the way his fatigues cling to the sharp line of his legs, the outline of his cock behind the zipper, heavy and waiting. “A real one.” My breathing hitches. “I’ll give you whatever you want tonight. You ask, and I’ll give it.”
He kisses like he punishes—thorough, relentless, until I’m trembling in his lap, clutching his shirt while I fall apart.
“I like the way you sound. I like how honest your body is, Lane. Can’t fake this, can you?”
He groans into me, loud and fucking obscene, like I taste exactly how he wanted and now he’s starving for it.
…and he’s studying me. Like he’s breaking me down to build me up again in his image. Something he can keep.
Even if it fucking kills me, I want him inside me forever.
“You are being so good for me. I want you to feel every inch. Let your body remember me and get shaped just for me.”
“I’m going to make you feel me for days.” “Yes, sir,” I pant, my legs wrapping around his waist. “Please…”
This isn’t just about getting me off. I know that now. He’s showing me what it means to be his, to be owned by him.

Listen… if you like this k*nk. I am happy for you. There were things that happened, I didn’t even realize could be done.
Only real quibble seems to be an editing issue: p102 He says ‘I’ve never kissed a man before,” which I was like you took a literal foot in your ass but haven’t kissed before, sure AND THEN 2 pages later says ‘I’ve never kissed like this. Kissing always felt like a mean to an end-foreplay, distraction, something to get through before the real thing.’ I did like right after this: ‘But Hale makes it feel like it’s the point. Like if he kissed me like this for hours, I’d still beg for more.’ That was really sweet, lol.
Listen - I was so proud of Lane for earning “it” at the end. Like all that degradation and orgasm refusal amounted to something. Not sure if that’s the emotion I should’ve felt but I was proud of my boy.
I had to knock .25⭐️ for the epilogue. That was the craziest thing in the book: VIETNAM! That boy is gonna die. I hope in the last book all these couples get together somehow and there’s this old couple who gives them a knowing nod or something. Like we made it.
I am all about life long learning so I WILL be reading the rest of this series. What IS Dollification (book 4)? What is the “Z” book 26 gonna be about?
I need rules. I crave control. And nothing gets me off like an authoritarian figure.
I’m pathetic. And I want him to see it.
My throat convulses again, aching like hell, but I fight the urge to pull back. My whole body screams for air, but I hold still. I take it. Because that’s what good soldiers do. They follow orders. They obey.
“Yeah,” he mutters, half to himself. “You like this. You need this.”
“Slower. I wanna watch you degrade yourself for me.”
“Do you want to be used or do you want to be owned?” “Owned, sir,” I say, feeling ridiculously timid even after everything. “You want someone to own you, but not everyone’s interested in sloppy fucking seconds.”
My own c*ck is rock hard. He doesn’t care because this is not about me. It’s about him. His power. My humiliation. And that’s what I want. I want him to break me open and keep going.
He watches me for a moment longer, then smiles. “Your cock’s twitching just because I’m speaking. You want me to touch you?” “Yes, sir.” “Too fucking bad.”
I always stopped before the edge. Always. Because Hale hadn’t given permission. And I’m not disobedient. Not anymore, at least.
“You’ve earned a reward.” He stops just inches from me. I can see the way his fatigues cling to the sharp line of his legs, the outline of his cock behind the zipper, heavy and waiting. “A real one.” My breathing hitches. “I’ll give you whatever you want tonight. You ask, and I’ll give it.”
He kisses like he punishes—thorough, relentless, until I’m trembling in his lap, clutching his shirt while I fall apart.
“I like the way you sound. I like how honest your body is, Lane. Can’t fake this, can you?”
He groans into me, loud and fucking obscene, like I taste exactly how he wanted and now he’s starving for it.
…and he’s studying me. Like he’s breaking me down to build me up again in his image. Something he can keep.
Even if it fucking kills me, I want him inside me forever.
“You are being so good for me. I want you to feel every inch. Let your body remember me and get shaped just for me.”
“I’m going to make you feel me for days.” “Yes, sir,” I pant, my legs wrapping around his waist. “Please…”
This isn’t just about getting me off. I know that now. He’s showing me what it means to be his, to be owned by him.

A for Authority
KU Read
131 Pages
Book 1 of the Kinky ABC Anthology
MM ... But Romance?I
Forced Proximity
Forbidden
Power Imbalance
Bi -Awakening?
Spice Heavy
Kinks (Check Triggers)
A is for Authority and the exploration of how Lane craves the domination of his commanding officer Hale. Despite this book having one of my biggest icks (sorry, degradation is not my thing) it is still wrote well to give you a clear understanding of Lane's desires and the dynamic between him and Hale as it develops and grows over his 10 week training period.
It was a short read, I finished it in one evening and rated it higher because it kept me hooked and was fast paced enough to hold my interest.

Pure, unadulterated filth. Degradation, orgasm denial, Army recruit and drill seargent. A quote for reference...."Tell me you're nothing but a useless cocksleeve" lorddddd..... dare I continue? Perhaps 🤣🤣🙃

This was erotica, as in, no proper romance. In the end it’s barely a HFN. They are together but don’t really talk and I have no idea where things will go.
It starts with Lane getting turned on by the drill Sargent yelling at him and then they take it after hours and it’s full of so much degradation! It’s technically supposed to be A for Authority kink, but it felt more like degradation kink. Pretty extreme stuff like licking feet and getting stepped on. The two never talk about anything outside of sex and it’s hard to tell if they actually have a connection or it’s all in Lane’s head. It was really hot but in the end it seems hopeful but they still haven’t talked about anything outside of scenes.

Most of the book I’m like “what are we even doing?” However I really like the last chapter and I would just read that only. Ch 8, I will remember you.

Not what I expected.
Of course, looking at the cover, you want to start reading it, but I personally found it a bit uncomfortable and the ending was quite vague. As I'm writing this review after reading the rest of the series (4 books, so far) I can tell I like the following books a lot more, but I did get a bit more suspicious after finishing this one, as I couldn't figure it out.
