She Who Must Be Obeyed

In this scorching, transgressive collection, King (Her Wish Is Your Command) brings together 18 original and 2 reprinted stories of lesbian erotica with femmes on top. As dominant femmes and their submissive partners play out fantasies and enjoy highly-charged encounters, sex is used for power, control, punishment and healing. These stories run the gamut from relatively vanilla to intensely kinky, though always within the bounds of safety and consent. Teresa Noelle Roberts explores the use of blood-play as a form of emotional healing in “Bleed.” In Rachel Kramer Bussel’s “Demo Model,” longtime partners spice up their relationship by pretending not to know each other at a conference. In Giselle Renarde’s “Too Old For This,” lovers hit a new emotional level while playing at the office, while King’s own “Grace: Under Pressure” chronicles the sexual awakening of a domme. This niche collection is hot, provocative, and sure to leave an impression. (July)
