Didn't mind it

Usually I don't read this genre, just because it's not one I always enjoy. These books are hit and miss for my liking. This one however was more on the hit side

Holy hotness! This is probably the steamiest novella I've read.
I really like Russell. He's sexy, confidant and in total control. He sees Molly at a restaurant and while she's not normally the type of woman he goes for, he's immediately attracted to her cool, self assured demeanor. Both of them are alphas and it's a battle of wills to see who comes out on top. Their chemistry is sizzling, as are the sex scenes. If this book doesn't make you want find your partner and get it on, you'd better call your doctor.

Whenever I jump into a new erotica book, I’m pretty sure it’s going to go one of two ways. It’s either going to be nothing but kinky sex (which absolutely has merit when written well) or it’s going to be a really good story that happens to have really good, kinky sex. I just never know which one it’s going to be until I get into it. By now, you have to know how much I adore characters. I’m a bit of a character collector, if you will. Every time I think I’ve reached the end of the line with new slants on characters, a new author takes me by surprise and proves me wrong.

Never in a million years did I think I would be proved wrong by a short story. But I was.

Russell Bennett is charismatic, honest, charming, funny and possesses a certain dashing quality about him that just had me grinning. We get a nutshell version of Russell’s life as it pertains to his exposure and relationship to sex and it’s refreshingly baggage free. He is simply a man who loves women, loves sex and refuses to apologize for either of those facts.

Russell is coasting through life from one conquest to the next, building his landscaping empire while he’s at it. Until he catches sight of Molly Jenkins from across a crowded restaurant. She is everything he could ever want in a woman. Strong, independent, fully in charge of her sexuality and equally as apologetic for her appetites.

Molly and Russell crash together in a battle of wills and bodies where no one is a loser but both parties are irrevocably changed. It’s a gorgeous thing to watch two people who compliment each other so well, come together and fit so perfectly. Even if they fight it from the start.

The Taming of Molly Jenkins is just flat fun to read. Ethan Radcliff has a unique and honest voice with which I found myself falling in love. There’s a wonderful rhythm to Radcliff’s writing style and pacing that draws you in immediately and carries you along with a constant pulse that crawls inside of all of your softest bits and sets up house and home. His sex scenes are dynamic and hot, his dialogue is engaging and smart, his descriptions permeate all of the senses and I have quickly added his characters to my collection.

I love discovering new authors and this one is definitely one that I’m going to be following closely, come and join me. You won’t regret it, I promise.

We were thinking wow if his book is anything like these poems we are in for a real treat and believe us he did not disappoint!!

Russell Bennett is as sexy as hell, at the start he comes across very timid and stand offish but by the end he is very domineering and in total control but with a soft spark to him, Molly Jenkins is breathtakingly hot and very in control but by the end of it she is a sweet sub with her own edge.

She was a Domme until she met Russell and he quickly changed that.

There are some amazing little quotes in the book the one that stuck with us that we really loved;

“For every women there is a man she will submit to regardless of her strength”

“I belong to you, I submit to you body and soul”

These to quotes to are so powerful and full of meaning.

This book is a short erotic book and Ethan really know how to use the correct wording to take you straight to that place even tho the book was short, it was straight to the story line and after reading it we were like wow did all of that happen in 40 minutes did we really just read all of it, but it did leave us more wanting a lot more. I’m excited to read more from

Ethan Radcliff!

We think he is going to be someone to keep an eye one.

This is one exquisitely juicy read!

The brief tale of Russell Bennett and Molly Jenkins left me wanting more. I'll first tackle Russell's character. This man was hot, bold, and quite self-assured. His determination to seek and conquer his prey was magnificently unravelled. Molly was an exquisite Domme facing a delectable challenge when she met the likes of Mr. Bennett. Her expertise in the lifestyle made it intriguing and certainly upped the ante. I must admit, after learning a bit of Molly's background, I was doubtful of what Russell could or couldn't accomplish. The sex these two shared was just..Hot! I expected nothing less considering the culture they share. There were a few grammatical imperfections however. In conclusion, I'm not sure who was tamed in the end. This is my first read of this rising talent. Ethan Radcliff came in strong and is definitely conquering a growing fan base. I am much looking forward to his future work.

Wow, this little debut number sure knows how to start off right! Another steamy read from Ethan Radcliff that will leave you feeling a bit hot and flustered.
We meet Russell Bennett in a sure to light your fire way in the first few pages of the story. Russell is at first, shy and unsure of himself. It then jumps ahead to Russell of the modern day. Modern day Russell is self-assured, dominating and sexy as hell.
Russell is a bit of a player. He has had quite the list of ladies. However when he spots Molly in a restaurant, life takes a turn.
Short story of a Dom meeting a Domme. The chase is on. Again you won’t be let down by the story. The sex is hot, hot and more hot. The storyline is quick but there is plenty of padding and steam in it.

Loved this short story, it was erotic and fast paced bringing together two dominants who had met their match. The challenge, raw desire and compromises made by both molly and Russell gave the story depth and meaning.

There were numerous typing errors which would normally irritate me to the point of putting a book down without finishing it. Definitely not the case here! Ethan's writing was crafty and his unique ability for painting vivid pictures with few words far surpassed any frustration.

Would thoroughly recommend as a story to get the blood pumping and helping to spice things up.

Looking forward to reading more of Ethan's books.

Russell Bennet who is a Dom and very Domineering trying to find a women who he can spend
the rest of his life with.
He Meets Molly Jenkins who is a Domme until the night she gives her card to the very sexy Russell. He meets up with her at the Black Sabre and finds Molly Jenkins is everything that Russell was looking for.
He knows this could be a challenge and he is willing and determined to take what he wants and that is Molly Jenkins.

"For every women there is a man that she will submit to regardless of her strength " This quote in the book pretty much sums it up to the "T"
Perfectly written for a short read.

This book was short and sexy as hell. Ethan has a way of writing words in such a manner that you don't need 500 pages. Russell was a great character, starting out as timid and shy and then becomes strong and domineering, but still with a slight softness to his edges. Molly is quite the same as Russell, just in female form. I read this book while flying back home from vacationing and kept pausing to see if my shoulders were being read over. I loved every word, but I was sitting between two people and not sure where their eyes were. I look forward to more of your books Ethan.

I absolutely loved this book!! What a great read. It was funny, sexy and HOT as hell!! Who wouldn't want to be dominated by the handsome, sexy and hot Russell??? Hhhuuuummmm? I loved the relationship between his best friend and his wife. I loved the way they picked at him and called him out on his oggling of Molly. And once he gets to have Molly...maaaannn, needed to turn the thermastat down to cool myself off. This author has a way with words and I will be reading alot more of his work. Great job Ethan Radcliff!!!

What a great fast read. Didn't want it to end. Russell a Dom learns way on about a few things about women. He is single and wanting more but hasn't found anything yet, until Molly. Things change for both of them and fast. Having been taught to be a Domme for Molly wasn't easy but she started to enjoy it. Loved it and can't wait for more.

An intriguing short/steamy story surrounding Molly Jenkins and Russell Bennett told through the world of BDSM and the male perspective/Russell, who views women as simple sex objects, till he no doubt connects with Molly one evening... I look forward to reading the stories of author Ethan Radcliff, and so should you once you read your first story gifted by this author!

This was a surprisingly great story by Ethan Radcliff. I don't normally read any books that have a Domme as a main character. I can't really relate to them. This book however was a steamy read and Molly really surprised me. I really loved her characterthe most in this book. Super hot read. I can't wait to read the next book!

Loved this story! It has the perfect start for us to learn about Russell and his first sexual encounter. We get to learn about him and his life as he turns into a man. All it takes is one look and he is fascinated by a woman while out to dinner one night. There is more to Molly then he first thought. Loved the sex scenes and also their interactions! A great story! Loved it!

this story had me in the beginning. a domme a dom who comes out on top? well I liked this book however one minute she will not see him the next this forceful domme is submitting and giving up her whole world, its called the taming of molly jenkins but apparently you can tame a strong person in one meeting. its worth a read and it really is a good book just don't expect to much of a fight.

This is a debut for the author. 2.5*⭐️
This short story is about a Dom and a Domme, it's all very fast moving. Russell and Molly have an instant attraction, it's very hot, firey and full of sex.
I enjoyed the humour between the secondary characters.
I feel it had a lot of potential, if only it was longer, then it could of had more depth.

Received a copy. Are you looking for a hot steamy read where two dominants have met their match? Ethan Radcliff gives you all of those components in this short and fast paced read. Molly and Russell are strong characters and will leave you a bit heated. Recommend this read and continue their story in The Collaring of Molly Jenkins.

Russell Bennett and Molly Jenkins are not the combination that you would expect to see together
One is a DOm and the other is a Domme
Who will submit to the other - or will they both submit
This is such a scorching read that I could not put it down
Excellent Debut Ethan Radcliff
