synopsis:grace is helping to plan a birthday party for her best friend, who happens to be a screenwriter for a popular tv show. one night, she is surprised by an instant message from toffer, who has been put in charge by the friend's husband on the hollywood end of things. they get to know each other through the computer, and grace's submissive fantasies come out. this is just find for toffer, who is definitely a dominant. when things go bad at her job, toffer offers to fly her to l.a. early, so that she can get away from it all. when grace meets toffer, she is shocked that someone so famous (he uses an alias as his "star" name) would be interested in an overweight mess.what i liked: i liked the fact that, although he was the dominant, toffer didn't need to all the time. when something was going wrong with grace, he was more concerned about that than about whether or not she had done what he said. i liked the fact that they were themselves before they met, and didn't have as far to go with regards to falling in love.what i didn't like: grace was fairly confident in most ways, but when she ran into one situation, she ran away instead of staying to fight. I surprisingly really enjoyed this one and the I adored the characters. Grace is a teacher and Toffer is a hot Hollywood star. They meet online planning a mutual friends surprise birthday party, but find that they have a bit more in common than they at first realized. This book isn't heavy into BDSM elements, but is more about the connection between the characters exploring the possibilities between them and establishing trust. Definitely give this one a read. :)
What do You think about Graceful Submission (2009)?
