She's on Top: Erotic Stories of Female Dominance and Male Submission [Kindle Edition]

Yay! A collection of female domination stories that women (and men) can actually read without rolling their eyes! As a woman who likes to be "on top," I'm always in search of fresh reading material for entertainment as well as new ideas for playtime. Many women prefer stories that don't just cater to the usual male-centered cliche' Femme Domme fantasies, but are still every bit as nasty, and this book fits the bill. Rachel Kramer Bussel has chosen modern pieces that avoid the porno pitfalls, and that will appeal to both men and women, curious types and seasoned players alike. And since it's all about female dominance, no more skipping around from story to story looking for something of interest.

"She's on Top" is a fun and wild read with a variety of play styles and personalities represented. I especially enjoyed the dominatrix piece, and the cover photo is gorgeous - inspirational in and of itself! Now where did I put my 6" stilettos and male submissive again?

She's On Top is a collection of stories showcasing women in a dominant erotic role with men as their subservients. Despite great advancements in

our social development, our culture is still permeated with sexism and misogyny. That being the case, a book of stories about women taking the lead in the bedroom (and elsewhere) is a refreshing treat. The collection sizzles with promise and potential and fulfills it all in a big way. Much credit to editor Rachel Kramer Bussel for assembling such a fantastic group of stories.

Among my favorites:

Saskia Walker's "The Inner Vixen" describes a very private encounter that unfolds in a very public place. A submissive man senses the

heroine's long to dominate even before she does, and guides her with himself as the offering on the altar of her superiority. With his help, she sheds her chrysalis of conventionality and becomes a radiant (and

whip-wielding) butterfly.

"Working Late" by Andrea Dale is an extremely hot story about sex over webcams that ends with a mind-blowing twist worthy of The Twilight Zone.

The editor's own "His Just Rewards" shows a heroine who can't physically

overpower her larger, stronger partner but more than compensates with

intelligence, erotic cunning and sheer force of will.

"Room 2201" by N.T. Morley explores just how far a man will go to prove

his subservience to his domme. He consents to being ravaged by another man purely so she can have the pleasure of watching.

Teresa Noelle Roberts' "Mark of Ownership" is a wistfully poignant tale of

two lovers who must part and never see each other again - and gives new erotic meaning to the phrase "something to remember me by".

Lovely "Waiting for Me" by MinaRose portrays a dominant wife and submissive husband team who use their sexual dynamic as a salve for the

frustrations of daily life.

My absolute favorite story in She's On Top is Lisette Ashton's "Victoria's

Hand." Set in London in 1890, the story is a small masterpiece of erotic

surprises in which a young woman is proposed to by an earnest young

gentleman. He finds the tables turned on him when this "proper" young

maid shows him exactly who will be in charge of their potential relationship. "Victoria's Hand" ends beautifully with a wicked

laugh-out-loud punch line.

All in all, She's On Top is a fantastic collection. I am excited to read

its companion volume, HE'S ON TOP: Erotic Stories of Male Domination and

Female Submission, also edited by Rachel Kramer Bussel (ISBN: 1573442704)

Rachel Kramer Bussel uses her editor's talents (yet again) to piece together a great collection of stories about female dominance in "She's on Top." Its not the typical, obvious stories of dominance, there is something for everyone. Storylines range from food fetish domination to a story set in 1890's. Its hot!
