One of the two could be in danger one way or another.īut who says hit recipe says also clichés. * In the novel, there must be an event or a situation that makes precarious the relationship between the Dom and the sub. abused childhood) or have been through a recent loss of someone dear, preferably in cruel circumstances. * The Dom and/or sub must have had a difficult past (e.g. Must fall in love with his Dom and have at heart to please him. If he cannot cook, he will learn real fast. He should be a little brat, just enough not to be annoying, but not too much. He must not know too much about the BDSM world (preferably, he is not sure to be gay, possibly a virgin). He must be in excellent physical shape, without being bulky (rather as a runner or a swimmer). * The sub must be smaller than the Dom (the greater the difference in size, the better). He does not smoke or, only occasionally, imported cigars of high quality. He loves fine wines and quality liqueurs. He has often one or many old sport cars in pristine condition.

His wardrobe always includes designer clothes and Italian shoes. The kitchen has all modern equipment and is shiny and clean. There is always a large fireplace in the living room. The decoration of the room is in shades of dark blue or all in black leather. His house is almost a castle and overlooks a magnificent panorama, often a major river. There is a washroom adjacent to his office. His office is always huge and well lit (big windows). He is highly skilled in the use of whips and other BDSM equipment.

He must care for the sub and follow the rules of safe sane and consensual BDSM (e.g. He must be able to not let his emotions reflected in his face or in his non-verbal.

Bear doesn't cease to repeat that he is a severe and demanding Dom, but we never had the opportunity to see him in action. The D/s relationship does not begin until the very end of the book. This story tells in endless details the sub's (Brian) miserable past and present and also describes the present difficulties for the Dom -who is also Brian's boss (Bear or Drummond)- to undertake a relationship together. But there was no D/s meal prepared with it all. The author used all the usual ingredients to make the recipe of a D/s novel (see below).
