Goodreads Blurb:
Caught in a frustrating relationship with a man who can't accept her for who she is, passionate, flame-haired violinist Summer finds release in her music. She spends her afternoons busking on the underground, lost in the works of Vivaldi or Mendelssohn. When her violin is damaged beyond repair, Summer receives a surprising proposition from Dominik, a university professor with powerful desires, who has been captivated by Summer ever since he heard her perform. Dominik will replace her priceless violin, but only if she agrees to play for him in a private concert.
Unable to deny the chemistry between them, Dominik and Summer embark on an intense affair full of daring twists and turns, as unpredictable as it is thrilling. For Summer it is a chance to finally embrace her long-denied dark side, but she'll soon learn that where there's pleasure must come pain. And can a relationship born of such all-consuming passion, ever really survive?
Definitely a different type of BDSM read for me. I feel the
only common aspect Eighty Days Yellow has with Fifty Shades of Grey is the BDSM
angle. Otherwise I saw no other in common and would not dare to compare the
two. Two completely different type’s altogether and both enjoyable reads in
their own way, I actually found Eighty Days Yellow to have more dark aspects to
it and was very harsh at times and (if half rating were permitted) would rate
it at 3 ½, but since that’s not an option I rounded it to a solid 4. I do not
recommend this book to everyone. But those who like to venture into the BDSM
scene, are not looking for a romance and do not mind a darker side of it will find
it to be a real page turner.
Summer currently finds herself in a unsatisfying
relationship and struggles daily just to make ends meet. She plays her violin
whenever she can. In train stations, bars, clubs theaters and any other way she
can make some money or just get to play her life’s passion. One day while
playing in a station her and her violin get caught in a bit of a scuffle and
her dear violin gets destroyed. Unknowing to her the story made it into the
local paper and was seen by an admirer. One day while checking her email she
gets a private message stating that they (the admirer) wants to replace her
loss and meet up with her. Feeling she has nothing to lose she meets this
admirer and that’s when everything changes for her.
Dominik is a professor in a local college. He does not work
because he needs to, but because he enjoys it, gives him a sense of purpose and
he gets to share his knowledge with others. Dominik is a very alpha male, he’s
not quite a Dom, but has many Dom qualities. At times he is afraid to let that
side of himself out but holding it in makes him angry and less like himself.
Meeting Summer brings out more of those dominant parts and he begins to crave
her, but at the same time he feels a need to distance themselves from one another.
Can you say hot in cold in a flash? Only time will tell which way he will go.
