for Two Moons - Book II

Excellent sequel
This is a follow on
to The first book Worthy of a Master. Megan gets Khiru a trained
Master, but their relationship turns rockey. She is kidnaped by
some folks from the free colonies for the same reason that the Global
Council wants her, as a source of DNA that will let them repair
the genitic damage done during the gene wars. They changed the male/female
birth rate to 4 to 1 and then when the wars were over the attempt
to nromalize make things much worse and left 1/2 of the couples
unable to have children. (Even today genetic manipulation in this
regon of the gene is known to cause secondary problems and unpredictable
results.) The free areas are those who refused to submit to the
Council because they objected for religious, cultural or other reasons
the rule of the Council. Good plot/subplot, sex scenes, and characterization.
Reminds me of Laura Antoniou at her best, but without the transsectual
issues. Nicley done BDSM, Ds, and MS scenes; even if you generaly
don't like this type of book I would highly recomend this one.

Shepard does not disappoint!
After reading Two Moons: Worthy of a Master (book 1), I couldn't
wait to get Freeman's Captive. This book is just as witty, sexy,
and well-written as the first.
Our heroine, Megan, finds herself on Khyra with her wonderful new
lover, Khiru. However, not all is paradise, as Megan and Khiru come
to understand that Megan will never be able to satisfy Khiru's complex
needs as a Master -- a graduate of the exclusive acadamy where Dom/mes
and subs are formally trained in the fine art of BDSM.
Back in book 1, Megan's disasterous incident with an irresponsible
dom left her with emotional scars. She enters book 2 with all sorts
of psychological baggage concerning masochism.
Meanwhile, the whole planet is looking to her DNA as the saving
force that will keep Khyrians from eventually becoming extint (a
result of their previous meddling with reproductive genetics).
As the wonderfully-planned plot unfolds, Megan is kidnapped by rebels
who want to see free territories gain the same benefit from Megan's
fertile body.
Megan steps up to every challenge, blooming into a new woman as
she is forced to face her greatest fears about sex, bondage, pain,
submission ... and utimately, love.
I cannot recommend this series enough, and I cannot wait for the
next installment!

I just had to write
to tell you that I loved both of your Two Moons books, and I sincerely
hope that you're hard at work on another installment of Megan's
adventure... I'm also hoping that Rhysh turns out to be a devilishly
sweet ordeal for my favorite earthling. ;)
I've been sorely disappointed with the availability of quality writing
in the world of kink. Thank heavens for someone who understands
that character development and plot are essential elements of any
story. I'm also indescribably pleased with the fusion of sci-fi
and submission.
I was somehow unsurprised when I discovered that "Sweet Butterfly"
was one of yours; when I read Crash Your Party Dress, that one stuck
out for me as being exceptionally well-written. I think your writing
is far more satisfying in terms of describing the complex physical
and psychological enigma that is submission.
Thank you so much for what you've published so far -- you've gained
a fan!

I wanted to write a
quick note of appreciation of your wonderfully descriptive books.
You have created such an interesting and detailed world. I have
greatly enjoyed reading your two books and avidly am waiting for
your next. I read the second book all night long because I
had to find out what happened in the end more I went to bed. Beautiful
job!
