For sci-fi erotica, it at least had some action going on other than the sex. I like the fact that even though Zara was a sub, she was also a kick-ass soldier when she needed to be. And of course, with Rand being a big, brawny hot vampire Dom merc, with the manners of a Regency rake...who wouldn't like him? lol
The villains - from a planet of cultists under the rule of one so-called Godsson (God's Son) - were a nasty bunch, and Rand's mom rocked.
The ending of the book with its final sex scene, kinda' ruined the story for me a little though. Bleh. (a*** sex).
A weak 3 stars.

I'm enjoying this and you can feel the emotion of Sapphire and you are right there with her. I think Jasmine character is a love/hate you have with her and Bronze I hope she gets the outcome she truly wants.

This was a first for me and although some of it was disturbing , I must admit there was some parts I found surprisingly intriguing.  I found it very surprising how in tuned to Subs a Dom is.

Was kinda hoping to see more of a duo arrangement with both girls but it's all good lets see what happens next.  Again your fan-fiction brought me here so thank-you for that too.

I voluntarily reviewed an advanced copy of this book. I enjoyed it despite the fact that Alex was a jerk in the beginning. I totally relate to Molly and I can understand how she feels. This is real life! People can be very cruel if you aren't a beautiful skinny fashion model. I'm glad it worked out for the characters. Thanks Mia Ford - this is reality.

I've listened many times, and it's still good.  Okay, Dawn is irritating, but isn't that the point of her character?  I had enjoyed Tony Head singing on the show, so of course I like his song and his duet with Amber Benson (Tara).  Amber and James Marsters are really good as well.  That group makes up four must listen to songs.
Buffy has a decent voice, certainly without the subtleties and training one finds in ASH's voice, or Amber's.  Nevertheless, there is a vulnerability and hesitation in her voice that is appropriate given the context of the songs.  She hits and misses, but generally she is pretty much on.

Tara Sue Me is quite simply a mistress at BDSM writing. Her books always suck me in, and make me feel as if I am the one in the playroom with her doms and submissives.  THE COLLAR is part of her now combined  Submissive/partners in play series and follows the characters from those books. Nathaniel,Abby,Daniel and Julie are all secondary characters and the story focuses on Jeff and Dena. The former couple are thrown together through a series of events, and must struggle to overcome their past.
 THE COLLAR is very well written and enjoyable and would no doubt please anyone who reads it. Looking forward to the next book in the series - THE EXHIBITIONIST.

Jane Yellowrock is an interesting heroine to base a series around. She wasn't exactly what I was expecting because she is a shapeshifter. Not a were, that is different she actually can take the form of almost anything given the correct genetic material. But she also shares one body with something she calls beast and I liked the way that this is explored in this book. When she is in Beasts form those are the thoughts that are in the forefront and so we see the world very differently as an animal would and it is a cool way to spend some of the story. Plus it has this added benefit since the story is all from Janes PoV of giving her someone to talk to inside her head instead of only having an internal monologue.

Overall this is a good beginning to a series. We get a pretty good glimpse of the world with some hints to the strange backstory that will accompany the vampires. There are also hints that perhaps later in the series we will see some were-somethings and Fae. I liked Janes witch BFF and the cutest little girl, I really want some extra time with them in future installments.

I don't know a lot about Native American culture so that was a good addition to Janes overall character depth and matched up with her skinwalker nature as well. She seems like she is a pretty badass chick most of the time.

The only thing that Im not in love with was that for a while in the middle it turned more PNR than UF where everyone wants to sleep with Jane. I mean I get it she is new and interesting but still it was like she was the last woman on a dessert Island with a team of football players. Even the other women in the story mad passes at her. I also was not a fan of any of the potential love interests for various reasons. I know this is a character introduction but our serious choices in this book seemed to be power-hungry vampire sociopath, lead henchman to the power-hungry vampire sociopath and extreme douchebag A. I really didn't like any of them and the thought of her hooking up any of the dudes from that selection is just EWE gross.

Still the story was action packed and gave me just enough to want to know more about Jane and her journey. I don't think youll guess who the bad guy is since there weren't a lot of clues to that but still the story is interesting and tense at times. I do hope we get some better love interest material as the series continues though since that area is in a sad state for me at least.

If you're interested in learning more about Tara, this is the perfect book.

So things get really heated up in round two! First of all I have to say I had a hard time believing Tara was in any way shape or form a Dom in round 1. In round 2 she proved her self and it was scorching HAWT!!!

The challenges they both are put through are so much more intense in the second round. They are both physically, mentally, and emotionally challenged on a day to day bases.
As both Tara an Lucian learn more and more about each other true passion starts to form between them. But will it cost them the game?

I highly anticipate round 3 is gonna be mind blowing! and I can't wait!

I know what i'm about say is not practical but

LUCIAN BANE ... CAN I KEEP YOU!?!?

Now that I'm sitting here writing this review and realized that May is a badass version of Bella, it's hit me how very much like Twilight this book is. I don't mean that as a bad thing though. I may even like this better. I only wish the story was longer. Seemed a bit rushed, especially if it's really supposed to take place within a week. I know relationships are different now a days but I doubt someone would be droppin' the 'L' bomb after two days. But other than that I really felt like May belonged there. Seemed pretty perfect actually. I can't wait to see how much more badass she gets later. Also totally obvious Jen will join the gang eventually and honestly I'm not mad it, excited for it even.

I didn't like t h e sub plots as well but still like the main characters.  Some of the critics really tore this series apart and that disturbs me.  I feel this author has a story to tell and quite frankly I enjoy it.  So I will buy the 4th book and hope to read a great ending and I won't look at any more reviews.

She is a very nice representation, even if she is not colored green (for green tara). She is made of resin and is nicely finished. I would buy another, if I needed a second one!

I was expecting a lot from this third book - the first two mirrored each other (first from her POV and second from his) with both finishing where book 3 takes off. I really liked how the whole relationship went to the next level.
Am now definitely a fan of Tara Sue Me and will be reading more of this series.

It look me a while to warm up to Skylar when all she wanted was her old life back and how she didn't want to work to achieve her future. But that changed. I like how she was forced to branch out. I like how she helped her housemates. Her housemates were a breath of fresh air. I like how they all had their own passion and they weren't afraid to show it or explore it.

I like how she tried to change the culture of the school - just a little bit. I like how she stood up to the girls who ruled the school. I loved her determination and her grit. I loved the slow burn romance. I loved the quirky events she wanted to add to the calendar. As she grew up, I began to like her a bit more but I think that was my adult side showing. I devoured this book after I warmed up to the main character.

I think I liked this one better than Abby's story. Still liked the Submissive though. I was hesitant to read this book but I'm glad I did. I loved getting his point of view. I can't wait till the 3rd book comes out.
