S.E.X. Review~ Hands On by Dakota Trace

Single on Valentine’s Day. What a horrible thought – well not really as far as Seraphina Blackburn is concerned. It’s just another commercial holiday done up by jewelry and chocolate companies to sell tons of over-priced crap. She ought to know, considering she makes a living as a high-priced ad executive, who just finished a multi-million-dollar ad campaign for one of said companies. All she’s looking forward to this Valentine’s Day is her annual appointment with the professional dominant who will turn her bottom rosier than any dang valentine – no strings attached – particularly romantic ones. All she has to do is to arrange her date. The only thing stopping her is Caden King – her new sexier-than-hell-but-nearly-ten-years-younger-than-her’ assistant. 

Caden King didn’t just graduate at the top of his class from Princeton for nothing. He might be starting out as some ice queen’s lackey, but he had the determination and the drive to make it to the top – including blatant eavesdropping when the opportunity arose. Much to his surprise, his frosty boss isn’t as bitchy as he originally assumed – just a bratty submissive who needs a firm hand to remind her of her place. While he might not be the boss at the work, in the bedroom he ruled. Seraphina was about to be educated about what happens to subs who ignore their own needs - with the help of Single Status, she was about to receive some hands-on training she’d never forget. 

This Valentine's Day being single is all the rage. At least that's what the website, Single Status says and they're not trying to set you up with your special someone. But, instead, give you the time of your life. Sign up a family member, a friend or join yourself. Single Status will send an anonymous letter with details of an activity for the day.

Dakota Trace has done it again with her Valentine short and HFN, Hands On. What’s a girl to do when she’s a tiger in the board room but the desire to submit in the bedroom runs hard beneath the surface? The only thing left is to seek out Single Status for a submissively good time of her life~ even if it’s only for one day.

Seraphina was a well-rounded character brought to life by Ms. Trace and her ability to write strong women into her stories. A sense of realism permeated throughout the story as the main character sought to assuage her kink, all the while being true to her nature both as the highly sought after ad exec and the wish to submit after lights out.

Caden, a member of Seraphina’s team, and a dominant with a ‘thing’ for the lovely exec queen, knew just where his needs were best laid~ assisting Seraphina find her submissiveness through the help of Single Status.

The twists and turns of the sexily led scavenger hunt added a new dimension to the short HFN, allowing enough information to be divulged while holding interest. Furthermore, the doors were led open for the author to continue the storyline by delving more into the lives of Seraphina and Caden. Not all tales can be told in one hundred pages or less, as life is not always wrapped in a red bow. But, Ms. Trace left enough on the table to entice her readers to return for additional installments. The characters were real, flawed, and relatable.

Another winner by the queen of sexy.
