Since its February 14th release, the Fifty Shades of Grey movie, like the book, has been drawing lovers and haters into heated debate all over social media - in some cases, it has been full on warfare!
And while I'm not a fan of the book myself, it's been hard to keep my nose out of an argument that in-my-opinion, is rather silly.
So lovers and haters unite, and enjoy this interesting comparison between FSOG and some of the world's most notable classics as prepared by http://www.grammarly.com/grammar-check
With the release of the amazing new covers for the entire ‘Her Master’s Kiss’ series at the start of May, once again everyone is reading and talking about the sensational BDSM erotic romance stories written by author, Vivien Sparx.
Set in a sleepy, fictitious American town of
Bishop’s Bridge, Sparx creates a world and characters that are amazingly
real and believable.
‘Her Master’s Kiss’ tells the story of a young
woman named Renee who is desperate to please her boyfriend, and seeks
out the help of a skilled Master to teach her the art of submission.
Unbeknown
to Renee, her boyfriend is a lying cheat, and when she is confronted
by the truth, the simmering tension between Renee and the man who is
training her is set to explode.
Stefan is a Master, and a man with a
haunted past; a tragedy that has consumed him and kept him remote from
life and love for too long. Renee is lost and alone, with only her
submissive training to cling to as her world falls apart.
It would be
natural for Stefan and Renee to come together – but Sparx makes the
emotion and the romantic struggle of two uncertain hearts into a
gripping page-turning tale of attraction, then desire, and then
ultimately romance – sealed with one of the best kisses ever written!
The
original ‘Her Master’s Kiss’ story was such a phenomenon, it has since
produced three bestselling sequels that continue the initial story
into an enduring tale of love and erotic romance.
‘Her Master’s Kiss’
is one of eight erotic romance best-selling titles by Vivien Spark.
Many of them feature BDSM themes of submission and domination. They are
all available for download from Amazon.Acclaimed for her realistic
portrayal of BDSM by readers inside the lifestyle, Vivien Sparx has
quickly become one of few creditable writers working in the genre. If
you haven’t yet discovered Vivien Sparx, be sure to pick up a copy of
‘Her Master’s Kiss’. It is highly recommended reading.

As a writer of erotic romance, the beauty of the genre is not in creating lavish settings for my stories.
Nor is my fascination for erotic romance drawn from the opportunity to create handsome heroes and beautiful heroines.
My real love for the genre stems from the opportunity to take my readers on a journey and engage as many of their emotions as possible.
I believe writing erotic romance gives authors the most influence over how a reader feels as we engage them in our stories.
Writers of action books, or horror books certainly can create compelling situations, but with erotic romance we writers can immerse our readers in a multitude of emotions unprecedented in any other form of creative fiction.
I can frustrate readers, make them laugh, make them cry, delight them, intrigue them, inform them – erotic fiction is a total emotional experience, and it is gratifying to hear readers respond to stories with passion.
I believe readers want to be engaged and drawn into the pages of a story, and as a writer of erotic romance, we have the greatest opportunity because our stories are always relatable. They may be fictional worlds and fictional characters, but the themes of love and romance and erotica are so universal, and so personal to each of us that we all respond to stories in different ways.
But we all respond.
And that’s the true joy of writing erotic romance. It matters not so much how you respond as you read… it matters only that you do respond. If a writer can engage you and make you feel, then the story’s journey is one well worth taking.
