Destined to Play (Avalon 1) [Kindle Edition]

Up until the 50 shades trilogy sexual play seemed to be a taboo subject, but now it seems its being discussed on buses, trains, in the supermarket and even at the school gates.

With the hype of 50 shades it would be easy to make comparisons between that and Destined to Play but I won't because although Indigo Bloome explores sexual play in the story, Destined to Play reaches a whole new psychological level that 50 shades didn't.

Before I tell you about the story I want to make it clear that Jeremy the lead male is nothing like Christian Grey so if you plan on reading this in the hope of falling in love with a similar character, you are setting yourself up for disappointment. But pick this book up with an open mind and be prepared to follow two sexually experienced 30 something's who are ready to explore sexual play and take the whole experience to a new level.

With your greyspectations checked at the door, I shall now begin.

Destined to Play is Indigo Bloome's debut novel and is the first of the Avalon trilogy.

The story follows married mother of two Dr Alexandra Blake when she is reunited with her old lover Dr Jeremy Quinn, over drinks one evening Jeremy makes an offer to Alex which is both tempting and terrifying. Going on previous promises to Jeremy, Alex knows that this is something she cannot take lightly and if she agrees, she cannot renege on it later.

Jeremy proposes to take away one of Alex's senses for 48 hours, he wants her at a heightened state and she must surrender. Knowing Jeremy and how her body reacts to his touch, words and taste she agrees to his proposition.

For 48 hours she will give up her sight and ask no questions.....

What i really liked about this book is the fact that the characters have a history, which we learn about from Alex when she reminisces over old memories and fills us in on parts of their university days.

With both characters being doctors and the underlying story being that of a medical issue, the terminology at times means that I wouldn't classify it as an easy read but it is a really good read with a nail biting ending that will leave you eagerly anticipating the second book in the trilogy.

If you are ready for erotic fiction that will challenge the psyche and leave you viewing 50 shades (in parts) as if it was written by Beatrix Potter then, you are DESTINED TO PLAY

Ok - so if you liked Fifty Shades, you will like this - but be warned, this is more challenging than Fifty! It is better written and more complex - but this actually makes this far more real (and therefore more erotic!) in my opinion. The story centres around a medical hypothesis, and as such more complex wording is used to describe this - but not so much as it leaves you confused. I loved this book and have already pre ordered the next ones! Trust me - download and enjoy!!

It started with such promise that I was very disappointed. The storyline was totally unbelievable as was the leading female character Alexandra Blake, I found she had no backbone and was totally calm and happy in a situation that was ridiculous!
As for the leading man Jeremy Quinn he would literally have to be a god for me to do what he asks.
Overall a very bizarre book :(
