About this ebook

The notorious novel of dark obsession
 
How far will a woman go to express her love? In this exquisite novel of passion and desire, the answer emerges through a daring exploration of the deepest bonds of sensual domination. “O” is a beautiful Parisian fashion photographer, determined to understand and prove her consuming devotion to her lover, René, through complete submission to his every whim, his every desire.
 
It is a journey of forbidden, dangerous choices that sweeps her through the secret gardens of the sexual underground. From the inner sanctum of a private club where willing women are schooled in the art of subjugation to the excruciating embraces of René’s friend Sir Stephen, O tests the outermost limits of pleasure. For as O discovers, true freedom lies in her pure and complete willingness to do anything for love.

I didn't mind the sex or any of it really. My problem was with how O's Masters used her up. She ended up no longer serving a purpose so she went through the permanence of it all only to be cast aside.

Loved the book, the nature of it but didn't love or even like the ending. It could've ended in some other formal way so a person knows what actually happened to O
