THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
Sarah K has a secret.
By day she’s a writer and level-headed single mother; by night she’s a submissive, living a real-life Fifty Shades of Grey that is thrilling beyond her wildest dreams.
But this is no fantasy: Sarah’s story is all true…
Daring, evocative and thrilling, but told with wit and honesty, this is an explosive account of life as a submissive, and of a secret world in which only a few dare to play.
When Max comes into Sarah’s life – charming, handsome and deliciously brooding – she can’t resist. She surrenders to him in every way: he is a dominant, and Sarah becomes his submissive, yielding her body to his every desire.
But as Sarah pushes her mind and body to its limits – performing acts E.L. James would blush at – she begins to realise that she’s in too deep. Pleasure and pain have become her world; she’s addicted to the adrenalin, to the sensation and to Max himself.
Now she’s in serious danger of giving in to the ultimate temptation: falling in love…

Not for the faint of heart...
By FaeRhi
"I wondered if this was something to do with my fantasy about Prince Charming -- the one to whom I didn't need to speak. The one who knew everything I wanted and needed without me saying a word, although in my fantasy Prince Charming had never resorted to nipple clamps."
- pg 161
I sincerely love this book. The description tells the truth in saying that it is told with both wit and honesty -- and that E.L. James would blush (and cringe) at some of the things in this book.
First, a few things: as much as I enjoyed the Fifty Shades Trilogy, I honestly believe that it took hold mainly because it was Twilight fan-fiction, and look how big those books were blown up. I read Twilight and enjoyed them because they were (and are) a cultural phenomenon. Are they well written with well-rounded, three dimensional characters? No. Bella is written as such a one-dimensional character so that every female reading can identify with her (which is why I will defend Kristen Stewart's acting in these movies alone, because she CAN act, but Bella is made of cardboard.)
Also, I have personal experience in this area of life, which is why I requested to review this book, and request many like it. A very close friend of mine was curious about the lifestyle a few years back and I did research with her and was with her every step of the way to make sure she was safe, and she told me everything. So I understand that it's more than E.L. James wrote, that scandalized so many, yet simply amused me and my friend.
Now, those things being said, so readers can understand my perspective, my review:
This IS a true telling. I know that some people may say that and it's a lie, but, knowing the lifestyle as I do, and reading the way that Sarah K writes it, you can tell it's real. It is real, dirty, painful, sexy, cringe-inducing, witty, and not a little heartbreaking.
Sarah is a writer and she and a fellow writer realize that the market for BDSM erotica novels has grown considerably. For years, Sarah researched it but never experienced it. But deep down, she wants to. So after gaining the courage to join a dating website specifically for those interested in the lifestyle, she speaks to various men online, meeting a few, but mostly experiences what anyone on a dating website does: a whole lot of creepers, weirdos and perverts that are just on there to get laid.
Finally she starts speaking to Max... and soon they develop a rapport. One in which he immediately asserts himself as a secure dominant. He gradually brings her into the world, pushing her limits, having a contract signed and, ultimately, falling in love... But there are always barriers and, in real life, not everything has a happy ending. I am not saying that this book doesn't have one, but there are heart-breaking moments in it as they go through the ups and downs of real life -- this is non-fiction, after all.
It's a well-written account of her experiences, each chapter introduced with a quote from Henry James or The Marquis de Sade, which made me break out my old collections to read him again. It draws you in and excites you -- sometimes in an erotic way, sometimes in an "Oh my god, holy s***" way... but it will get your heart racing. At times you may not want to turn the page but you have to, are compelled to, to see what happens next.
I'm giving this a five out of five flowers because it's real, amazing and enthralling. But if you're vanilla, and you were a bit turned off by Fifty Shades of Grey or any of the books in the category, don't read this. It is not for you. However, if you're in the lifestyle, or you'd simply like to venture there in Sarah's place, sit back and enjoy.

Ho-hum with melodrama
By Tez Miller
It's weird reviewing memoirs. You can say they're plotless and you don't like the characters, but they're real, and it's for that very reason that a memoir is plotless and you don't like the characters. So I can understand why memoir writers might take reviews of their memoirs personally.
THE SECRET LIFE OF A SUBMISSIVE charts Sarah K's (what, she couldn't make up a surname?) relationship with Max: how they meet, what they do, and the outside factors that eventually break them up. Yes, spoiler: this is not a romance. Or is it? The book ends on a phone call between Sarah and Alex, and the sequel memoir (due out August 2013) will chart their relationship.
Max is like many fictional Doms: good-looking, charming, and wealthy. He funds their dinners, buys Sarah clothes, pays for them to spend five days in luxury in Paris...
But he has a young daughter, and an "ill" ex who's clingy and needy, keeps ringing Sarah's mobile and her home...and shows up in Paris with her daughter to win back Max. She's not quite psychotic, but she is the story's "villain".
The book doesn't pass the Bechdel test: two or more named characters don't have a conversation that's not about men. The closest that comes is Sarah's chat with charity shop staff who help her choose tarty clothes. But the staff thinks it's for a tarts-and-vicars party, not a hotel date with her boyfriend. Max specifically requested Sarah wear something tarty, so whether the staff knew it or not, the conversation was still about a man, in a way.
For most of the story, it's all very ho-hum with some melodrama at the end. But there is one rather perhaps unintentionally funny scene: "Dog's dinner", shall we put it - you'll know it when you read it ;-) There's also talk of the reality of creating a DIY dungeon. It helps to have a carpenter who's in on the lifestyle, apparently.
But the book has icky stuff: talk of using a daughter's skipping rope in bondage sessions. This is early on. Later on, Max's daughter's teddy bear is found in the car's boot, where his BDSM stuff is. I'm totally not okay with kids' stuff and adult stuff touching. Ew.
Sarah K's THE SECRET LIFE OF A SUBMISSIVE beats Sophie Morgan's THE DIARY OF A SUBMISSIVE, and I think I'll tune in for the sequel.

Excellent
By Claire's Book Corner
Sarah is a 44 year old writer, a mum to three grown up children and in an unhappy marriage to a guy 15 years older. The story starts with Sarah changing direction with her writing and entering the world of Erotic fiction. With an unsatisfying sex life consisting of a fumble under the duvet in the dark once a week Sarah relies on her friends to feed her sexual imagination for her writing. Five years and 12 erotic books later Sarah and her husband finally divorce leaving Sarah free to live out her BDSM fantasies. Sarah joins an online BDSM dating web site and eventually meets Max who helps Sarah discover her submissive side.
I'm surprised at the time of writing this review that this book isn't more well-known because it is really good. The tone of the book and Sarah's voice is superb. Told in the first person I could really connect with Sarah and live her highs and lows. In her forties it was nice to read about a woman who doesn't make rash and silly decisions or play games but who is level headed and mature. I enjoyed joining Sarah on her journey into the BDSM world from her first encounter and through her training with the delicious suit wearing alpha male Dominant Max.
As you would expect from a book like this there are lots of explicit BDSM sex scenes. They are very well written and Sarah gives great commentary on her feelings throughout. Just when you are wondering why she would put herself through such torturous situations Sarah explains how much she is enjoying it but if she wasn't she could walk away at any time.
I really liked this book and highly recommend it to those who like this sort of story. It is set in England so some people may have not quite understand the English slang but I wouldn't let this put you off. I also want to mention the cover as I think it is gorgeous. The Secret Life of a Submissive is sexy, witty, emotional and a fantastic read and I am going to give it 5 stars.
