Review: Talon's Trials

Talon's Trials Talon's Trials by Audrey Joseph
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Dominant rock stars who prefer a domestic discipline dynamic. Let's rephrase, rich well aged sexy alpha men who are not shy to spanking a submissive female. Where exactly do these men exist? New to me author, Ms. Audrey Joseph writes kink that appeals to my taste. Not sure why it took me so long to get to writing this review. This book is a keeper and I want to read the next books in this series.

Talon Taylor was a lead singer for a rock and roll band. Retired, he is more or less living life quietly. His only contact with the rock and roll world is staying in touch with his former band members through friendly weekly gambling. Sometimes, gambling doesn't include money and that is when it gets interesting. Talon finds himself suddenly stuck as the legal guardian of a seemingly jailbait brat, Missy.

This story is typical in character stereotypes. Talon enjoys BDSM yet he feels guilt about his dark kinks. Missy is a bratty female who basically has zero common sense and doesn't get that actions have consequences. To be fair to Missy, she is only 19 and most children this age, especially during a life lived in relative safety and luxury, are clueless and need a good spanking. Yes, my cranky old lady opinions of today's youth does colour my review. It is good that Talon is more than willing to spank the foolishness out of Missy. Personally, I thought he was too easy on her.

The romance brewing between these two is a teenage girl's fantasy come true. A rich rock star sweeps them off their feet and treats them like a princess. Sure there is a bit of Daddy dom coming through, but really, these type of females need a Daddy dom to keep them straight. They don't want to grow up to be a contributing partner in the relationship. And it works for Talon and Missy. Ms. Joseph is able to create a back story with some conflict that makes these two more appealing. They are not as vapid and shallow as one would think. They are a cute couple. For those who enjoy a domestic discipline/Daddy dom fetish, this is a sweet and fast erotica to enjoy.
