Whipped

by I.J. Miller

Carla Peters is a suburban housewife nearly immobilized by her empty, malaise-filled affluent lifestyle. No love in her life, strained relationships with both her daughter and second husband, Carla is desperate to move forward in some way, to connect to her family again, to find the intensity of love, to get off the Valium prescribed for her as a cure-all magic carpet. Her one salvation seems to be Mistress Domina, her strong, powerful alter ego. But will the dangers of a secret life, of the erotic world of dominance and submission lead to more darkness, or to the light of one who has finally faced all her fears?

AMERICAN BEAUTY meets FATAL ATTRACTION, the woman's story...
