Karen ♐ (kmk1214) | 1865 comments -- Training Amy (BDSM Erotica) by Anne O'Connell
-- 170 pgs
-- Read: 11/7/15-11/8/15
-- total points for book - 20 pts
This was a 2.5 star for me but I always round up. Amy goes to work for Eric & Brad at their book store. She, of course, ends up going into the locked store room they told her was off limits. They also have a business selling BDSM furniture, toys, etc. This could have been a really good story but it was written as if the author was a teenager. I never felt connected to the characters.
