Blog Tour: Maid For Pleasure by Lucy Rodgers


Today I am hosting the recovery stop for Maid For Pleasure Tour by Dark Mind Book Tours. My stop was supposed to be July 10th, but besides connectivity issues and the fact that I couldn't access my blogger account, I couldn't even schedule my post. So here I am today, with my thoughts on the book and a giveaway.



Summary (taken from Goodreads):
Insurance actuary Libby Beckett is the epitome of a successful, independent, modern woman. With her six figure salary, she has a condo overlooking the beach, a BMW, and a closet full of fabulous shoes. So why isn’t she happy? And why do her fantasies always involve whips, bondage, and sexual slavery? Her desires are impossible to explain her buttoned-down accountant boyfriend, which is why when she stumbles across a website for a quasi-dating service for submissive women called Maid for It, she signs up. She’s quickly “matched” to Gavin Huntley, an engineer and inventor possessed of a small fortune and his own private island in the Caribbean. After carefully weighing the risks and rewards, as any good actuary should do, Libby breaks it off with her boyfriend and heads to Gavin’s island for what she promises herself will be two weeks to explore her darkest, dirtiest desires. When her time is up, she’ll say her safe word and, as outlined in Maid for It’s contract, Gavin will be required to release her. But Gavin knows what Libby truly needs, and it’s not to be free. She’s made for pleasure—his pleasure—and he intends to put her to good use. Forever.



My Review:
I read this while I was travelling on a train and I was so bummed that when I finished it there was no more to read! 
The story was amazing, intriguing and sexy. I loved that Gavin owns an island and all the people who live there work for him, and I wish I had been there too!
Gaving is quite charming, and although he had the same impact on me that he had on Libby, I loved that he was arousing her to the edge, to make her go crazy for him. Their connection is there and it's visible, even though you don't think there is one.
A couple of shocking moments I didn't expect made me enjoy the story even more. Overall, I loved that there is a story behind all the sex, and it wasn't just meaningless porn.
I look forward to read more of Lucy Rodgers' work!

  1. Yes I would. I would love to be able to get away from everything and experience something different and experience my darkest desires.

  2. Yes with conditions. It would have to have a time frame attached. I couldn't just leave my kids and family forever. But my hubby and I sure could use the time to reconnect a bit and I couldn't think of a better place to let every inhibition we have go!

    I know that is not exactlyt the same thing but...

    Thanks so much!

  3. I think I probably could have before I had kids, but now maybe not. Maybe when they are all older and they are driving me crazy I might reconsider just to escape!!

    Great idea for a question!
