Review of Tower: A Dark Romance Rapunzel Retelling (Ever After) by Measha Stone
Azalea is an almost 23-year-old naive young woman who's tired of being locked up in her mother's home. So lately she's been escaping for tiny trips while her mother's out on business trips. One night she heads to a club where she catches the owner's eye. Peter Titon is a dominating asshole and he knows it, doesn't even mind that his reputation is so hard. When he sees Azalea's innocent gaze taking in a scene between him and a sub at his club, he wants her instantly. She doesn't take him up on his offer, though, because she hasn't got the time, literally. If she's not back home before her mother gets back, she knows nothing good will happen to her. Peter still has her on his mind, though, so when his men come to him with a debt collection trip, and it's at the same address where he dropped Azalea off the night he first saw her, he knows she'll be his, even if he has to take her to make it so.
Whew, Tower is H O T!!! I loved it. I'm not always into kidnapping and forced consent type of stories, but Measha Stone does it well here. Peter and Azalea are not just smokin' hot together, they fit together perfectly. With him schooling her in the D/s ways, and her being the sassy sub that he needs and loves, I ate their story up. But Tower isn't just super steamy and erotic, the emotional depth of their relationship is what really makes this story stand out. It's not just some erotic piece of fluff with little or no relationship or character development. It's not just passionate and exciting, it's emotionally fleshed out and substantive. Kudos to Measha Stone for this modern twisty retelling of Rapunzel.
