A is for.......
A is for Anna and Jensen!
I loved this story and what it represents for this couple.
We see glimpse of their past and present and gives up hope for their future.
I was reluctant to start this series but I was sucked into it from the very beginning.
B is for....
B is for Brilliant
OMG what a story of growth and self awareness. Xavier and Mae' story was extremely intense and I loved every minute of it!
C is for....
James and Beth's story tugged a lot of emotion in me and I found myself sucked into their world and loving every minute of it.
With every installment in The BDSM Checklist series I get more and more sucked in to each of the stories and their characters.

New Favorite Author!
These three books were amazingly good! I didn't know what to expect, but as it turns out there was nothing I didn't like. It was written so well, the words compelling and flowing smoothly, I adored the characters, funny and witty, entertaining, enthralling and so much more. I will be reading the rest of this series.

This is a great introduction to the series, and quickly had me hooked! This series is based on a unique game, with some very interesting characters. Definitely worth reading!
A is for... (BDSM Checklist, #1)
This book introduces us to Las Palmas, and the game the overseers have concocted to pull their members out of a rut. The alphabet game, where each Dom and the submissives of the club are assigned a letter of the alphabet, along with all of the checklist items that begin with that letter. Sounds....intimidating!
Submissive Anna thinks she is a perfect submissive. When they are introduced to the game, she begins to have reservations....and to realize that she may not be as perfect a submissive as she thought she was. Along with her partner, she explores the letter A, along with her limits as a submissive.
Oh wow! My feelings for this book are....simply amazed! This book is unlike anything I've ever read before. The premise is intriguing, and the chemistry between the characters is HOT! There were so many surprises in this book, and they were revealed little by little. I just could not put this book down! I can't wait to see what is in store in the next book!
B is for... (BDSM Checklist #2)
The checklist game is meant to pull the members of Las Palmas out of a rut. For Mae, that is definitely what she is in. She has found herself in a "niche": She is the bratty, sweet sub. When she is paired with Master Xavier, not only does he challenge her limits, but also her ideas of who she is and what she needs. Even though she knows from the beginning that he is unlike any other she has been with before, and well outside her comfort zone, she can't stop herself from proceeding with the checklist.
Master Xavier is......tragic. You can tell from the beginning, he is hiding a lot. He is a hard man, not easy like Mae is used to. He tries to scare her away, he tries to push her away. But she is determined, even while she is confused about her feelings.
This book is emotional. It is, in a lot of ways, tough to read because their feelings and emotions are so close to the surface, so raw. Even so, it was a fantastic read, and I loved it!
C is for... (BDSM Checklist #3)
Beth is a submissive, who can't find her place. She loves being a submissive, loves the rules, the structure. But what she isn't finding is satisfaction in submitting. She has been put into a role that doesn't fulfill her, and isn't sure she can break out of it. So she finds herself planning to leave it behind. Until the game.
Master James is a "sub whisperer". He knows what they need, even when they don't. When he is given Beth to dominate in the checklist game, he has his work cut out for him. She sees things one way, and he need to open her eyes to the truth.
Beth and James are....interesting. She isn't your everyday submissive, and he is a unique Dom. The chemistry between the two are explosive. This story tells another side of the checklist game, and I enjoyed their journey!

Book Review: Checklist ABC... A Billionaire Club Box Set
Author: L DuBois
FIVE STARS
If this book doesn't make you hot then I don't know what will. The D/s scene is something that is really an area that I am not familiar with but I love reading it. The trust it requires to be able to give yourself over completely to your D.
The whole purpose to this series is this. Las Palmas Oscuras or The Dark Palms is an exclusive and secretive BDSM Club where only the richest of the rich can afford to be members. Now the head Masters and Mistresses of the resort have decided that things have become to lazy and stupid in complacency.
They want things to get back on edge and push everyone to their limits. So they have this list. If the members to not want to play this game they are free to leave and give up their place in the club. The game is simply this. There is a letter and under each letter are the different things that are listed that start with that letter that is part of the BDSM world. A couple or a D/s will be assigned a letter and they are to do everything on that list that they have said they are willing to participate in.
A is for.... We meet Anna and Master Jensen.
B is for..... We meet Mae and Master Xavier.
C is for ..... We meet Beth and Master James
All equally HOT and Sexual. All so worth the read. I will be picking up the rest of these books.

Sexy character driven stories to warm your heart...
This story reminds you that behind every BDSM couple is a couple of real people. Anna and Jensen, especially Anna, are put to the test when the owners of Las Palmas give them specific alphabetic inspired tasks to expand their BDSM experience. Yes, this book is one HOT read, but it's also sweet and sad and joyful.
B is for broken, maybe, but not so much that the right person can't make you whole. Or make you more. Xavier and Mae have misconceptions about each other, when they just let go they find more of themselves.
C is for collar, and so much more, but James refuses to ever give another collar. Beth is a mystery to James. He's seen her around but she's like he curtains, in the background. Their pairing is eye opening for both of them and one sexy sweet read for us.

I picked this book up on a whim and I'm glad I did. I now have another author to follow. This book is a good introduction to the series. Each book is a stand alone with different couples in each story. The owners of a BDSM club decided to challenge the Doms and Submissives by pairing them up and given a letter of the alphabet. They must partake in the activities that start with their letter. They do not have to do their hard limits but all others are included. The stories are interesting and the characters are well developed. I give this book 5 stars and have bought the next one in the series.

I honestly haven't read many of MS. DuBois books and I don't know why. I really enjoyed this book. I like the concept of it and I feel changing the rules with the game did open them up but there were a few "kinks" I didn't like. I don't like the crawling but overall I really enjoyed this book.

3 good stories set in a challenge weekend at a BDSM club. Each couple are surprised at their pairing, that push their boundaries, but not their hard limits. They surprise themselves and each other. I loved it, well written.

Letters
For some the letters work. For others they change their whole lives. These six people find out just that. And then some.

Interesting
This was an intriguing series of games at a BDSM. It was a spin that I hadn't seen before but I would be in being a part of it.

What a brilliant read. BDSM is not just about the lifestyle , but the people and characters brought out by the lifestyle. Cant wait to see what surprises the rest of the letters hold

A is for: AMAZING!!!! Can't wait for the rest of the alphabet!
Love Lila's work and this is another amazing story. Great characters! Great tension! Loved the "surprise" ending!
What I dislike? - waiting for the next book in the series and the next then next...
B is for: Love the Characters that Lila creates...they may start out as tough to root for but pretty soon there is nothing stopping you from rooting for Xavier and Mae and realize they are just what the each need even when that isn't what appearance say.
Once again Lila has a surprise gotcha at the end...just like in "A is for..." Different surprise but just as good. Now we all have to wait for C...saw the cover in the RT pictures so hopefully Lila and FarmBoy Press will be able to get it into our "hands" quickly. I can't wait for the next surprise!
C is for: Another wonderful and hot add to the BDMS Checklist series.
Beth and James are an unlikely combination or are they???
Loved the how Beth and James worked out their differences and another surprise at the end...loved it!!

I'm in a marathon reading BDSM Checklist. I like it!
A is for...
So far my favorite. I liked that the past of the main characters is slowly revealed, but not in flashback (I don't like flashback so much...). There is a real connexion between Anna and master Jensen.
B is for...
I liked this story too. It revealed that the overseers are good to match master and sub. Mae and master Xavier have nothing in common on the surface, but... wew! In fact, they have, and the two discover new things about themselves, and I liked that very much. And I liked the end too!
C is for...
Beth and James. Good story too, but maybe because I'm in a marathon reading all the series, I started to think that I would've liked more details about the main characters.

This book was very good as it contained both a good storyline and excellent detail!
If you are looking for something a little different, this book is for you.
Romantic, sexy, kinky and a fun read too!
This book is a trilogy which is split in to the first three letters of the alphabet A, B and C.
Each story is different but a vein runs through all three books.
It is five starts from me for this box set – very highly recommended!
