5.0 out of 5 stars If you're not afraid of the dark -

I didn't know what to make about a story featuring a heroine who had a rape fetish, but this novel works so well because of Jonah. His character is spot on/rock solid and makes it come together beautifully. (And the balance of the therapy sessions to explore her psychological mindset helped temper the very taboo subject matter).

The black moment was a tad predictable and def one I saw coming, but I love how Jonah connected the dots and handled it. Any other character I don't think would have had the same chilling impact with his delivery, but as I said above - his character was beautifully rendered. I adore him entirely and the tragic backstory was a unique, compelling twist that I appreciated and reaaaaaally jerked the heart strings.

Side note: I'd downloaded the sample of book two and it looks like I won't enjoy this one as much as the first, unfortunately. **SPOILER ALERT** because the heroine seems like she's become a seriously dislikeable bitch, twisting Jonah's arm with an ultimatum to continue their arrangement. Even though he's made it clear he doesn't want to continue to enact these fantasies now that he knows she is an actual victim of rape. Because of his background, the idea of touching her that way knowing its more than fantasy but based in a hard reality isn't something he's comfortable with, but instead of respecting his boundaries and his needs, she goes on to poke poke nudge nudge until she gets what she wants. SOOOOO not happy about that. I might still give book 2 a try, but reading that in the sample completely killed my excitement. :(

5.0 out of 5 stars 4.5* - this book has wrecked me!

First of all, a book that has the Rape of Proserpina on it's cover immediately grabbed my attention and once I started reading, I couldn't put it down. I found it to be one of the most tastefully done representations of a consensual non-con relationship. The dichotomies in this book, holey cow - both erotic & wholesome, dangerous & caring.

I am in love with both Vivienne & Jonah, and the way it ended...not necessarily a cliff-hanger but a how do they move forward - I can't wait to find out!

Comment peut on à ce point se tromper sur une couverture de livre ?
Je ne comprends pas , sincèrement, cette histoire est tout le contraire de cette photo froide et sans relief.
La seule chose que je puisse dire c'est foncez .
Foncez dans cette histoire dure et passionnante , le livre n'est pas facile à lire tout le temps ( de part la gravité du prospo ) mais cela en vaut le coût , vraiment !
Une excellente surprise que cette Dark romance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Intense and interesting
Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2015

I was completely riveted by this book the whole way through. For Vivienne, having fantasies of sexual coercion embarrasses her with endless shame, but it's what she wants more than anything and can't have it any other way. Jonah, a professor whom Vivienne meets one evening and incidentally crosses paths with again later, proposes an arrangement that allows them both to indulge in this fantasy. Jonah wants to be a participating partner just as much as Vivienne does. While they have shared a very intimate part of themselves when they engage in these acts, they shut the rest of themselves off to each other because love doesn't even factor into the equation. Keeping distance as strangers is what maintains this arrangement. It's simply about them acting out their deepest desires. Wow, the scenes of them acting out these performances portray just how realistic their role playing is in the moment, but it was hot, too. Jonah never intends to hurt Vivienne.

There's some interesting points about this plot. For starters, is there something really wrong with Vivienne and Jonah to want this because they are both hard pressed to find other willing partners who would entertain such an idea? I never considered either of them to be abnormal or deranged in any way at all because they were consenting adults in every aspect. If anything, the fantasy only made me more curious about delving deeper into both of their psyches. They are both intelligent, professional people who have their own personal issues that empowers them when they do this act, they are just unaware of the other person's secrets. Vivienne actually sees a therapist, Doreen, and the scenes with Doreen are very insightful about Vivienne's character.

The theme of duality is constantly in motion, Vivienne's complete trust and submission to Jonah's power and dominance. How Jonah is so forceful while in the moment, but very gentle and tender afterwards. They have no problems improvising in their roles, but struggle with basic conversation. The way they know something so deeply personal about one another that no one else knows, yet they know very little about the general things about the other. How Vivienne gives everything of herself except her heart and how Jonah demands complete submission but factors in safety and boundaries.

Both Vivienne and Jonah captured my complete attention and tugged at my heart as more layers of themselves unraveled. Vivienne is very strong mentally, she is not whiny or overly demanding or dramatic at all, she has a real grace about her that is impossible not to be drawn into. She's also relatable and compassionate, she struggles a lot with her thoughts but is mature about confronting them, too. Jonah is very reserved and impassive overall, but puts in 100% effort at everything he does. He's not a jerk, but he's very masculine, direct and guarded. He doesn't cater to other people, but he will make slight concessions, especially for Vivienne. Control is very important to him, but not in an overbearing way, more like he values his privacy above all else.

Trying to blend their fantasy world with reality winds up being more challenging than expected. Discovering more about each other personally as feelings slowly filter through begins to blur the lines of their roles vs their relationship. The complexity and depth of these characters is very well written. While the subject matter isn't necessarily for everyone, I would still suggest reading this unless there's a trigger because I was completely immersed in finding out how Vivienne and Jonah navigate outside of their role playing bubble and if they could both break out of their shells with one another. They are a very functional duo, but emotional communication doesn't come easy for them and knowing the truth about each other could be a game changer because of the impact. While it's impossible to compare whose past is more tragic or heartbreaking, I want to see them both liberated from those burdens. I am very anxious to read the next book.

A very good book. I especially liked the setting in Austin, that the characters have real jobs and no 28 year old self made billionnaires are in. This Makes the whole story more real and gives credibility to the rape fantasy subject. Also the way the characters treat their fantasies and respect each other has me giving this book 5 stars.

4.0 out of 5 stars Controversial, thoughtful and definitely worth reading
Reviewed in Australia on June 7, 2015

Vivienne is driving home late at night when she gets a flat tire. Her phone battery is flat, and she’s just working out how that she’s getting ready to change it when a car pulls up, and a man asks her if she needs any help. Vivienne considers the dangers. She’s alone, isolated, helpless. She’s afraid and the fear excites her, it feeds a fantasy.

Vivienne needs to fantasize about rape to achieve orgasm. This is an incredibly confronting topic and not for every reader. I wasn’t sure that it was for me. Vivienne has a lot of conflicting feelings about her fantasy. Mostly shame and guilt – she doesn’t want to feel this way. She thinks she is not normal, she thinks what she wants is dangerous and wrong, and that she only feels this way as an outcome of her own rape. She’s been having therapy for years to come to terms with her experience, and she wants to change.

At a party, her ex Geordie drunkenly and publically outs her desire when he apologises for not being able to give her what she wants. Jonah overhears Geordie’s apology. Jonah is the man who stopped to help Vivienne change her tyre. They have chemistry, and Jonah offers to help Vivienne live out her fantasy.

They meet to discuss, and to agree on parameters and safety measures. Then, they do it.

It’s better than Vivienne had hoped for, which is a mixed blessing. If she’d hated it, there would have been some hope that she would just stop wanting it, and move on.

What makes this book for me is that it’s so thoughtful. ‘Asking For It’ isn’t about two people finding a shared fantasy and then everything is magically cured. Vivienne finds the fulfilment of her fantasy liberating. She enjoys it, she feels safe, she wants it again. But she wants something more as well: she wants a relationship with Jonah, even though she isn’t certain what that will mean.

Jonah’s motives are less transparent than Vivienne’s. Her initial hope seems to be that he comes without any baggage attached to the fantasy, that unlike her his reasons are more ‘normal’. Jonah is always intense, mostly abrupt, but he doesn’t feel dangerous or threatening outside the scenes they enact. He’s considerate at all other times, concerned for her wellbeing. When they discuss rules his main one is that, if there are ever any witnesses to their scenes, that Vivienne immediately come forward to prevent him from being charged as a rapist. He wants this as a fantasy: Jonah doesn’t want to be a rapist. He doesn’t want to hurt women.

Vivienne’s visits a psychologist regularly to talk all this through, and this was another strength for the book. It feels so rare in romance that people are actually getting help for some of the awful things that they suffer, and one of the great jobs Vivienne’s psychologist does is remind her that she can’t simply assign motives and feelings to Jonah: when she doesn’t understand something he does, she has to ask him.

This is such an unusual book, and it has a wonderful way of dealing with what is difficult and complicated and confronting. I’m looking forward to the sequel.
