Loved this book and lisette out did herself,it's a awesome read!!
I enjoyed the 2nd installment much more than the first. I felt like there was more character development, and a stronger story that I want to continue on with to see how it turns out. The whole ordeal with Devin is crazy, but I’m oh so happy to have some drama in the story! And how Jocelyn turns the tables on him is just super yummy.
I was also really happy to see Jocelyn really take the reins of her own desires and jump right in. I’m definitely curious to see what #3 entails.
The story continues with more dark erotic scenarios but the tables are turning when Jocelyn finds out who is running the show. While some parts were hard to read the switching of the Dom/submissive roles really had me on the edge of my seat. So far I have enjoyed the series.
"Facades Retribution" is the second book in the Dark Desire Series. In this daring story, we become more familiar with Jocelyn's plight to understand her deepest and darkest sexual desires. In the previous book, "Unveiling Facade" we are introduced to the incredible, lust-filled Mansion by Jocelyn's best friend, Beth. Left wondering what would become of Jocelyn, we find that she has blossomed into a well sought after Hostess at the Mansion. She seems to be happier than she's ever, been and relishing in her most reeling erotic fantasies.
Unexpectedly, Jocelyn is thrown to the wolves as a dark blast from her past returns to humiliate her in ways she could never expect. She is mentally broken down, and forced to question her purpose and self-worth. Not only had her life changed, Jocelyn had become a prisoner with no way out. Her body was not her own any longer. During her suppression however, Jocelyn meets her unlikely savior, and unlocks a new door to her inner desires. With her new outlook, Jocelyn is given the jolt that she needs to overcome her stigmas, and to use the darkness within herself to break the chains holding her back. Will she prevail in honing her new sexually charged attributes to expand her worth in the business? Or, will she be forced to live out her days under the scrutiny of her past? One thing is for sure, Jocelyn has a new calling, and she's not afraid to use it.
This psychological, sexually fueled feast will have you begging for book three only a chapter into the story! Not only does the author illustrate a steamy erotica, but she also sheds light on the mental aspects of the world of BDSM. I got much more than I expected when reading about Jocelyn and her explicit lifestyle. I learned of a woman who finally understood what she needed to do to make herself content. I'm eagerly awaiting book three, and recommend this book to anyone looking for more than just another erotic read. This book has everything and more to easily make it a bestseller. 5 STARS!
After finishing the first book I had to dive right into this second book to see what happens now that Facade had decide to stay at the mansion. We get to share in this whole new world that she has entered, where it takes her as well as what she learns about herself in both the past and the present. This book is full of steamy scenes and even though it's a quick read I fully enjoyed it from beginning to end.
What can I say about Façade’s Retribution by Lisette Kristenen?
Lets start by saying that I loved the first book in this series. When I got this one, (Second book), Façade’s Retribution, I figured it would have a heck of challenge to measure up to the first in the series, because often times, authors get the best work out with the first, and the rest never quite measure up.
This book not only delivers on the promise made by the first in the series but doubles down on it. It is a maddening story that will take you on emotional roller coaster and a sexual train wreck that will leave you panting and gasping for the next installment.
It is at once emotional and perverted in the darkest and most twisted of ways. It will challenge perceptions of sex and submission and will get your libido humming.
The plot is a freaking roller coaster, and the story ends in a satisfying way that keeps you panting for more. This isn’t happy every after though, this is more like – we made it this far, let’s do more, sexy perverted stuff! Let’s set this world on fire.
I loved everything about this sexy story. I loved all the girls in the mansion, each one unique and damaged and strong and sexy as hell. And, I love how they continue to evolve and change and get busy.
This is the 2nd book in this series. I feel like this story is about a abused women trying to take control of her life. Her ex abused her and treated her terribly. I won't give anything away. But the author has an amazing way of making you feel and understand each character. This book has everything. Abuse,loss,pain,suffering , crazy sex ect. I started understanding how the main character struggled to prove to her self she was worthy. And she didn't have to take crap from men. I was shocked when the head owner of the mansion was revealed. I could go on and on. But this is a well written book. By an author who can take something you are not comfortable with, and actually make you see that there are reasons people do what they do.
I'm working my way through the Dark Desire Series box set at the moment and i have to say it's taking my breath away. Compelling reading and a definite page-turner from this wonderful writer.
Jocelyn is enticed by her friend Beth to attend a party at a mansion - but it's no ordinary party. At first she is apprehensive but then something triggers in her an her wild, lustful desires are unleashed. Beth invites her to stay at the mansion to become a hostess which leads her into a world of self-discovery. One discovery too many and she's cast into a world of apprehension. Halfway through the story we discover who the true owner of the mansion is and what they have in store for her. Until Facade befriends someone who helps her get revenge on someone from her past.
Great read, onto the next episode in this gripping adventure.
Ok, I have to be honest. I didn't enjoy the sequel as much as the first installment.
Firstly, WAY too much girl-on-girl. I'm a strictly dickly woman, so all the lesbian action wasn't arousing to me, and I found myself skipping over it to continue on with the story.
Secondly, without revealing spoilers, some of the plot lines were too neat and tidy, "Scooby-Doo endings." Ms. Kristensen has such a fertile and deviantly erotic imagination, and I hope the next installment features more twists, turns, jagged edges and angst.
And again, my personal pet peeve of grammar and spelling errors.
Personally, I hope Facade finds someone she can truly connect with, instead of just slutting for the masses. Because I'm a dark romantic at heart. Looking forward to the next one!
The more I read of this type of story, the more I like it. I never would've considered reading Erotica before, but I have now read two books of this type, and by the same author. And I hate to say it, but I really enjoyed it. This is the second part of a series that I have been reading, which has some delightful little twists in the tale. The sex it quite brutal in places, and there was a fair bit of girl on girl action, but then again, I expected that.
This is a well written, erotic tale of lust and revenge, and I would recommend it to anyone who likes this type of twisted, erotic tale.
I truly enjoyed this story, such a good read. It was fast-paced, descriptive and sexy. It is exciting to witness the metamorphosis of the characters. I am looking forward to Book Three, let the journey continue.
