Honor and Obey – cherished words from the past, and ones that can be difficult to live by. Relationships are difficult at times, and arguments or bitter feelings can often result in the destruction of love. What if an alternative lifestyle could change everything? What if love and trust could be reborn, wrapped in a blanket of obedience? Will the couples take the chance in the hope of saving their love?
Her Gift
Her Request
Her Silence
Three couples. Three stories of heartache. Three reasons to learn to honor and obey. Do they have what it takes?
The book is actually three short but very satisfying and complete stories that take the reader on a journey into the lives of the characters. It includes raw, open, honest discussions, regarding their feelings, and their lifestyles. What happens when people reveal their unusual lifestyle to their friends and business partners? Are they opening the door to Pandora’s Box? Maybe they will discover that it is more acceptable than they previously considered. Another plus, these are mature adults in their early fifties.
The stories are about the trust and respect each couple has. For the woman to give total submission to her dominant and for him to cherish her gift and nurture her as his submissive. The story is strong in the D/s lifestyle, respect, submission, consequences, punishments, and acceptance. As you read, you will feel like a voyeur observing their intimacy as the stories unfold. One of my favorite LOL lines, “Playing with men is like licking a lollypop. You simply swallow the sweetness then pitch the rest.”
Her Gift is the relationship of Zach and Jasmine. I love how she refers to him as My Sir. Planning a wedding will take an unexpected turn when Jasmine admits to Zach she doesn’t want or need a wedding and would prefer a collaring ceremony. How will their friends and family react? When Gracie learns of Jasmine’s lifestyle, she is intrigued. Zach’s business partner shocks him with his admission to being a Dom also. Just ordinary people who enjoy an extraordinary lifestyle of D/s and kink.
“We all need to feel in control, and when we lose the concept, there are few things that can bring us back to center. There is nothing like giving up control, allowing someone else to sort out things.”
Her Request is the relationship of Tony and Jordan, who have been married for twenty-seven years but are in a rut and she is so miserable in their marriage that she is ready to call it quits. She wants him to dominate her and spank her. When they sit down and talk openly and honestly, will they be able to rediscover the two people who fell in love? A stark reminder that complacency can destroy a relationship and that the lines of communication must always be open and exercised.
“You need structure in your life as well as discipline. I’ve been neglectful in my duties. I’ve failed you. That stops tonight.” “This was perhaps the most intimate act a couple could do together, and the realization brought tears to his eyes. Why hadn’t they tried domestic discipline years ago?”
Her Silence is the D/s relationship with Raven and Chad, who have been together for less than a year. She has had multiple past relationships, including one that will resurface. Chad is divorced, after catching his wife in bed with two of his friends. Raven is known as Rocker Chic and does radio interviews; Chad is a businessman. Sometimes his works will affect them getting together, and it causes her doubts. She is not known for her patients, and he feels she doesn’t trust him as she should. In the end, they learn that the give and take of their D/s relationship are exactly what they need from each other.
“Stop worrying. Just relax. Breathe. You’re safe with me. I adore your willful side. I love the way you demand attention.” “Sometimes you have to stop, just stop, and we’ll figure it all out another day. Silence isn’t a bad thing. I promise we’ll always come back to the discussion and if something troubles you then we’ll discuss it.”
Honor and Obey is really three seperate stories of three different couples that discover their need for a D/s relationship. Her Gift is about Jasmine and Zach. Jasmine doesn't really want marriage but loves and want her D/s relationship with Zach to be a more permanent relationship. Zach is interested in having another woman in their trysts but fears losing Jasmine.
Her request is about Jordan and Tony who after over 20 years of marriage, Jordan is bored and unhappy. Tony is surprisec to hear that Jordan needs much more than Tony has given her in their relationship. Jordan says she need a strong dom-like man that will take her over his knee and show her how much she is loved and cared for. Tony loves Jasmine and wants to learn how to make his wife happy.
Her Silence is about Raven and Chad. Raven is known as Rocker Chick, a radio DJ and Chad's submissive. Chad is a businessman working hard to make a success of his business, which sometimes takes his time away from Raven. Raven has to interview rocker named Darth, who is also a past lover who obviously wants Raven again. As Chad must work late one night, Darth is making his move on Raven and it isn't going to be a sweet lover's reunion.
Each story has it's own characters and situations and they all get a satisfying HEA.
A very good novel. The novel contains 3 different stories about 3 different couples. Their stories are all unique. Jasmine and Zach practice domestic discipline and prior To marrying her fiance she decides that she does not want to marry him in the Normal way instead she wants to be his Submissive for life now to tell their families.
Tony and Jordan are having trouble in their marriage until Jordan finally tells Tony she needs domestic discipline. This helped to start their relationship over After years of existing only day to day. Jordan's best friend Macy was always in trouble with no consequence. Things are going to really heat up with lots of twists and turns.
Raven and Chad are apart a lot so when Chad comes back home he makes sure that he offers her consequences for her bad behavior. Raven understands that Chad has a problem with keeping her safe but she forgets to check in. When Chad gets home it is time to pay the piper.
These are 3 separate stories about women who needed structure and discipline in their life from a strong man. In Her Gift, it is the husband who has to learn to be strong. In the other two stories, Her Request and Her Silence, it is the boyfriends. The stories are well written with a lot of focus on how the women are feeling about lack of discipline, and then getting the discipline they desire. As the stories develop, there are scenes of discipline and love that are well done.
I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book. Three women who reach out for what they need. Three stories of desire, lust, heartache and pain. Jasmine who gives her Sir what for her is the ultimate gift. Jordan who who finally asks for what she needs before it's too late. Raven who wants to surrender so badly to her master, but the past hold her prisoner. BDSM, master/slave, spanking, anal.
Well worth reading. I recommend it. This is a very realistic short story anthology. The relationships of the three couples are well described. All the characters are well done. It's not a fun read but it's really well written. I am not sure if I enjoyed it as I prefer fiction and this reads more fact based. The stories are sexy and BDSM. I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book and I recommend it. Worth reading.
This volume has three very steamy stories, and I liked them all, but ‘Her Gift’ was my absolute favorite for its riveting BDSM theme. Lovers Zach and Jasmine, living in a D/s relationship, further explore the BDSM lifestyle. The choices they make deepen their level of trust and bond them together in this very hot erotic spanking story. Move this one to the top of your reading list.
Honor and Obey is a compilation of three stories. Each of the stories is a stand-alone story, none of the couples appear in the other tales. Nevertheless, I was fond of each of the couples. My favorite was Jasmine and Zach with Tony and Jordan and Chad and Raven a close second. Each spanking story was unique and steamy and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.
I've read quite a few D/s and disciple books, but I didn't like these characters. They each had way too much angst. That was the entire story. I kept reading the next story hoping it would be better, but no such luck.
This is an anthology of three stories about introduction to D/s to their relationship. Love the fact that their are older couples and they are willing to experiment. Please read this book.
Since there are three stories, you are able to have three perspectives about living a d/s relationship within a couple. While there are some valid points and interesting remarks about the reasons why women can want it or how it can enhance a boring marriage I was not able to get into the stories much.
Honor and obey is a set of three stories that are all stand alone but they all have a central theme. Women in a relationship with the man of their dreams but they just need more from them. They need to submit and know that their men will be there for them. Great stories really enjoyable read.
