Art of Surrender Book

I was disappointed. It started out great with Jude and Michael separately in very hot BDSM scenes: Whipping, spanking, bondage, orgasm denial. The sexual tension between the two of them grows with each meeting as each expects the other to submit. I thought this was very unlikely as both are mature and experienced dominants. At best I was expecting some switching.

[Spoilers begin]

Then at page 100 Michael is so overcome with lust for Jude that he unconditionally submits. Suddenly he's being whipped, sodomized, cross-dressing, sucking another man's cock in an alley, wearing a chastity device and enjoying his humiliation - Totally unbelievable to me. AND suddenly he doesn't know the first thing about submission even though he was doing it like an expert 20 pages earlier. WTF? His total role reversal was completely unbelievable. He becomes her total slave while she maintains all her freedom and consorts. I would have thrown the book away but I kept hoping it would end differently. If you are a woman who fantasizes about making a strong man into a total wimp, maybe you'll like this. But I suspect you will be turned off too.
