The style is more or less the same as in the earlier books of the Submissive trilogy: the main characters are drinking elegant wines, are reciting poems, reading classical literature, and planning their marriage. The only twist is that at the request of the new bride, they make a vow not to be together for a month. In the spirit of this, the first half of the short novel is a love-romantic passion with alternating points of view, which is annoying, because Nathaniel's figure is extremely out of character.
A month passes slowly, and then, according to the script of romantic movies, obstacles roll in front of the lovers. But then, in the second half of the story, comes the real, soft BDSM story, which we are already used to from Tara Sue Me. This is a closing bonus after the trilogy, although these characters appear again and again in the writer's later books. A pleasant, easy read.
