What has not been said about this lovely book?

She told her colleagues snatches of her past life thinking no-one would be interested and it was they that persuaded her to put it in book form. She is a natural story teller and the thrilling thing for me is that she was a teenager dealing with men sometimes more than three times her own age.
Like all these books, it seems to be too short, and always gives the impression that the reader is being given no more than a taste of the dom business and the real hardcore stuff remains a secret.
This is a book not to be missed and you are bound to warm to shawna-jean. The real mark of a good book is that you do not want it to end and I had that feeling with this book.
