A review by simonlorden
A Wicked Revenge by Em Brown

3.5

This could have been very good. I liked the original set-up: Spencer wants to take revenge on Miss Primrose for what she did to his brother, but Beatrice also had a very good reason to take revenge on Spencer's brother, which Spencer doesn't seem to know. Would have loved to see the reveal on that.

I like Beatrice as a character. Her motivations are interesting, and even though she became a domina for revenge, she's clearly good at her job and knows the "rules" of BDSM.

I think what killed this book for me was Spencer's anti-BDSM attitude. He's horrified that this woman humiliated his brother, when like, his brother is an adult man who went to a domina and paid her money on purpose. He reacts with disgusts to basic BDSM-submissive things, like calling a submissive "my pet". It felt annoying and kind of hypocritical. Also kind of weird to keep and reread detailed descriptions of your brother's sexual activities!

This is also part 1 of a part 4 story, so it feels kind of unfinished. I might get the others later, but I would have preferred it to be 1-2 books instead of having to buy 4.
