Finding his very own Daddy is harder than finding Prince Charming.
Noah Lavoie isn't anyone special, an average guy working as a veterinarian with a few kinks and fetishes. For too many years he explored the BDSM lifestyle, but consistently felt something remained missing. In a world of black and white, Noah struggles to understand where to find the gray.
Then…
A mysterious contract.
No strings attached.
Never to know the Dominant’s identity.
Noah clings onto his only hope, a man he can call Daddy.
Cold, ruthless, charismatic. Bane Rozek believes himself impenetrable. He built his empire, fabricated from lies, blackmail, and extortion. Dark secrets he holds in his palm could cripple the most powerful of people and organizations. It's all a lie, a simple illusion to hide his truth.
He did it all, built his fortress and claimed his power and sovereignty, for her. But Bane knows Death’s chaste kiss intimately. What Bane wants is a connection.
This time on his terms…
An innocent boy offering the purest submission.
A contract holding them both at a distance.
A boy that tugs fiercely at Bane’s dark heart.
If only Bane could believe himself worthy to be the Daddy Noah proclaims to love.
I
knew the premise of Noah’s Bane by Wulf Francu Godluck when I
agreed to read and review the book; Daddy/boy, heavy BDSM, and dark. Some of
the preceding characteristics are my cup of tea, some not. But, regardless, no
matter what my feelings, if you like dark, edgy, and erotic- this book is for
you.
Noah
and Bane had an interesting relationship. Noah wanted to belong and be
someone’s boy, Bane was a daddy who didn’t want a relationship, but did want a
submissive boy. Together the men formed an interesting relationship with an
even more interesting dynamics. Do not look for loving platitudes, or date
night, because crime boss persona Bane was just that- and don’t look for him to
change, because it was not going to happen.
The
book was filled with bondage, biting, and some choking- and that wasn’t simply
on the BDSM side.
The
author did a nice job of delivering the information with flashbacks in order to
demonstrate how Bane became the bad guy he was.
Where I had issues was the up and down and the emotional roller coaster
of each man. The Daddy/boy relationship was not traditionally my thing, so I
tended to block some of that and kept reading. I am not demeaning that type of
relationship, it’s just not my cup of tea.
The
second half of the book became even darker than the first, and although we knew
Bane wasn’t a nice man, I found him almost cruel. The men received their HEA,
but attitudes and demeanors did not change, so don’t expect it.
Many
people were also introduced in the second half, which at times was confusing,
but I am also surmising this will lend itself to future books.
Dark
and edgy, Noah’s Bane was…..
