Tainted Love

Tainted Love is elevated erotica. It's a character study as much as it is a dark romance. Kaylen, the protagonist has not only a storied past, but a tragic history that is developed organically, and has helped shape her worldview and form her life. Which is based around the duality of pain and pleasure, denial and acceptance. This work's themes are integrated effortlessly into the characters themselves and their trajectories. While not a long work, every arc is captivating, and Wes himself may be the most compelling character in the story. Wes himself, possess duality, opposing feelings for Kaylen that are dominant, yes, but runs so much deeper. As all relationships truly do, as well as the themes of this work. Gorgeous prose with tonally appropriate word choice, and a carefully considered aesthetic tone elevates this work even further. 5/5.

i may never be ok. what a story!!

Good character development. Nice flow. Sometimes when the events move quickly, it could be a bit more helpful to the reader; if that matters. Nicely written tale.
