Marianne and Simon have been more than friends since they were kids, but when she meets Mark her whole life changes. It's not easy being spanked when you're not used to it, but although the two men in her life are rivals the one thing they agree on firmly is that Marianne needs her wild side taming. And once she's had a taste of what that kind of life can offer, she's no longer sure she wants to argue. She loves them both and means to have it all, but Mark is not the kind of man to share. He breaks the triangle and makes her choose, but at a cost to everyone - himself included. Can Sophie save the day? She isn't beautiful and dazzling like Marianne, and the special qualities she has aren't on the surface. Sophie is a quiet girl who accepts Simon's discipline with absolute humility and never one word of complaint. It's how she wants her world to be, and her love for him goes past all limits. Shy and gentle though she is, perhaps her resolve to heal two broken hearts will prove to be more powerful than all Mark's dominance and strength...
Warnings: This title contains bdsm, explicit sex, and a small amount of graphic language.
Erotic Horizons
"...the long and short of it is that I was simply blown away by this tale of dominance and submission. It was told in style and with a very understated grace that made this book a winner with me."
Selena Kitt, Author and Publisher
"Hardcore BDSM fans won't find any sordid details here, but if you love the psychological aspects of the genre, the submission of a woman to her man, you have found a rare jewel in Marianne."
Seriously Reviewed, 17.5/20 SCORE
"How can my tummy flutter, my heart feel trampled, and yet I’ve never been more satisfied by a story? Marianne! isn't like any erotic romance I've ever had the pleasure of reading. Memorable characters, a lesson in pleasure, and the beauty of surrender."
Danielle, Coffee Time Romance, 4/5 CUPS
"The overall storyline flowed really well, and while I may not understand the whole concept of D/s lifestyles it did open my eyes quite a bit with this tantalizing tale."
T. Barringer, Love, Romances & More, 4/5 HEARTS
"Author Simon Lowrie has a way of making the oddest of characters likeable and believable. Marianne! definitely goes on this reader’s recommended reading list for being extremely original and one of a kind."
Lisabet Serai, Erotica Readers Association
"Simon Lowrie's intriguing novel is one of the most erotic things I've read in quite a while. ... This force propelled me through the novel, leaving me awed, breathless, and aching."
Bookgrrl 1976, Night Owl Reviews, 4.25/5 STARS
"the detail and beauty of [Lowrie’s] writing draws the reader along… it was impossible to set the book aside"
