You Love It or You Hate It, I Guess
Well, *I* LOVED IT! I've owned this book for a while and just happened across these three very disparate reviews. I think this book appeals if you like the dangerous side of things. I do agree with the reviewer who liked it , that it's a fantasy, and as such those old BDSM bywords of Safe Sane Consensual have no meaning. This ISNT a BdSM erotic romance, and just because that's what Claire usually writes, doesn't mean we have to punish her for writing something different. This is a down and dirty old-fashioned kidnapped and
torture
tale
, highly erotic if you like that sort of thing, which, I confess, I do!! Claire is a great writer and the scenes are stark, powerful and hot hot hot. That's what I think! See what you think!

Dangerous and Dirty but definitely HOT
I felt compelled to write this review after reading the two other very negative reviews. Being personally very well acquainted with all of Ms. Thompson's writing, I would agree this is not her typical romantic consensual BDSM story, but then, it wasn't intended to be. She wrote this quite a while back, and if you look on her website, it was an exploration into a dark fantasy, not based on truth, not based at ALL on safe, sane, consensual. This is not a romance. It's a dark
tale
of one woman's abduction and
sexual
ization. The goal is not to find true love, or redemption. It is a FANTASY designed to titillate that darker part of those of us who are turned on by the fantasy of sexual abduction. I found the book extremely satisfying, especially as the main character emerges from it with new self-awareness and a deep appreciation for her life and freedom.
That said, I would recommend anyone who doesn't like Ms. Thompson's nonconsensuals to check out her romances, each one more beautiful and erotically satisfying than the last.
Respectfully submitted

Jane is abducted by a sadistic couple intent on reducing her to a
sexual object
. Drawn into a world where sensuality is blurred and splattered by the harsh brush of abuse, the exploration is as much a matter of the mind and soul as of the body. Jane, called "
Frog
" by her captors, learns to adapt as her world shrinks to the avoidance of pain and the pursuit of pleasure. Ironically, her captivity frees her to finally appreciate a life she took for granted, and even in her sexual prison she discovers small joys and, ultimately, redemption.
