The Dark Garden by Eden Bradley

This is another BDSM novel but unlike it's counterparts it is more about the individuals and the lifestyle and not naive girl meets wealthy businessman. At first I struggled with it, mainly due to her overuse of the word 'soaked' early on in the story, which I find such an off putting description. However the story line itself is quite good and at least gives the reader and accurate and erotic version of the lifestyle in which some of us know little about. It does pull on the 'damaged' individual chain again though very much like 50 Shades, the past demons affecting the choices in the present, which I found a little irritating as again, it almost attempts to make the connection that people with difficult or damaged sexual backgrounds are the 'type' that gravitate towards the BDSM lifestyle, which is wholly inaccurate. The story does have a good plot line though and instead of the reader only following one relationship we follow two with this, which is a refreshing change, and once the author thought of some more words for describing female arousal it was a good read.
