Book Review: My Secret Submission by J.M. Witt
About the Author
I'm a stay-at-home mom with four young children and one extremely supportive husband. We've been married for over ten years and reside in Metro Detroit, Michigan. I've dreamed of writing romance novels since I was little. After having baby #4, who may or may not have been fathered by Christian Grey, I decided it was time to pursue my dreams. When I'm not running to various appointments, enjoying time with my friends and my family, dating my husband, or avoiding cleaning my house, I'm writing! I love music and believe that books and music can't exist without the other. My goal is for you to read more than a good book, but for you to have an experience
My Secret Submission
18+ only. Standalone, taboo, BDSM romance. Meredith Nichols. I’m the epitome of a good wife and a good mom. I’m President of the PTA, I volunteer in my children’s classrooms, and I moonlight as a freelance editor for romance authors. No one suspects what secret desires lurk below the surface, except my husband. I’ve openly tried to persuade him to join me in my fantasies, but he’s refused over and over again. Then, I met Gregor Thompson. Our worlds collided one fateful day and there was no turning back. He’s a mystery, intriguing, dominant, and has the same struggles at home that I do. He’s opened my mind to the possibility that my fantasies can indeed be met and that he’s the man to mentor me. He’s infiltrated my brain and seems to know my wants and needs before I express them. It’s time to be who I was meant to be, get what I want, what I need, and forget what society thinks. I’m going to let Gregor take me on a journey of self-discovery to places most are unwilling to go. We all have a public life, a private life, and a secret life… He would be mine. He was my safe place, my secret escape. He was my Sir. He was My Secret Submission. 18+ due to content. Warning: contains adultery which may be triggers for some people.
Review:
This book seemed to move very slow (I spent an hour on the train reading it, and only reached 10%). The back and forth emails were a bit annoying, as they took up most of the content within the chapters. The other part that bothered me about the emails was the author continued to put the actual email addresses and signatures from both emails. I found myself skipping pages or skimming through them just to get through the book. Unfortunately, I couldn't connect with the characters and felt there wasn't enough of a BDSM element to the story.
