I received Laci on Top from the author through the BDSM Group’s TPE BAR read2review program for an honest review. The story is told in third person through the eyes of Laci and her husband Cole.


Before I start my review, I have to state that I don’t normally read M/F books, because I’ve found most female protagonists annoying. I read almost strictly M/M, but I wanted to give this story a try because it revolves around Laci, a dominant woman.

Laci and Cole have been married many years. Their son has just gone off to college, and now they have the house to themselves. Laci and Cole have a close and loving relationship which the author conveyed well throughout the book. They also have a healthy sex life, if not a bit ordinary.

From the beginning of the book the author lets us know how Laci likes to have control over almost everything, meaning not just sex. Cole on the other hand is easy going and fun. I actually preferred Cole in this story because of his personality. I found Laci a bit uptight.

Through playing around, Laci finds out that Cole likes a bit of dominance and from there, they start to explore D/s. They are novices, so even a trip to an adult store is embarrassing for Laci. I did think the trip they made to an adult story funny. It was probably my favorite scene. One scene I didn’t care for was the one that took place directly after the cop drove away. I didn’t like how Laci treated Cole, but that’s how the author wished to write her. And I know there are harsher books with Dommes out there and this scene wasn’t anywhere close.

Being new to domination, Laci and Cole proceeded kind of slow, although at some points I think Laci tried to push too hard which I didn’t care for. However this book is not the harsh kind of domination in many other Femdom books. I’m not interested in those kind of books and I’m glad the author wrote a more gentle style of Femdom. There aren’t enough books written like this.

The writing is smooth and easy to read. I don’t remember spotting any errors and if there were any, it didn’t affect the story. I did find the plot a bit slow, but that’s because of the kind of book it was. It’s a story of exploration, not one with shoot ‘em up action. Probably it didn’t help that I also read a few books before this one that had leisurely plots too. By the time I got to Laci on Top, I was itching for a fast paced read.

I found Laci on Top well written, easy to read, although a bit slow paced. Laci and Cole were a loving couple and easily likeable, especially Cole and their love for each shone throughout the book. Their evolution into their D/s roles were realistic with them experimenting with what worked, and what didn’t work for them as a couple. This is a more gentle look at D/s and not the kind with harsh, bitch mistresses. If that’s what you’re looking for you won’t find it here. If you’re looking for a leisurely, loving read, then this book is for you. I give Laci on Top 4 Stars.

I loved it!

Laci and Cole have been married twenty years and are exploring dominance and submission in their relationship.

This is a sweet and romantic story, told from both sides and without without the pain and cruelty often associated with female domination.

Cannot recommend highly enough. ( )
