Stroke of Midnight

Loved. It. The book was spectacular which is what I have come to expect from K Webster. Her stories are suspenseful, dark, edgy and a complete page turner. This one was the same and so much more. I simply couldn’t put it down. At times I was speechless but totally in a good way. Winston and Ash had explosive chemistry and a genuine connection which I could feel in every single page from the start to the end. Full of twists and turns you don’t see coming, I know their romance is going to be an epic tale.

A Hot and Heavy Read if you are into erotic humiliation and degradation. I just want to start off saying that this really isn’t my kind of kink to read. I don’t get off on the erotic humiliation thing but each to their own and if that’s your thing there’s no judgement here and this book may well be for you. For me though, it wasn’t the type of kink that made me give it a 3 star review it was more the way it was written. I won’t give any spoilers away, but I’ve read my fair share of BDSM/kink and I just didn’t feel it was realistic or sensitive to the codes that that community live by. However, the steam between the 2 main characters is palpable and it was good to see there were some lighter moments too. It was a little easier to read towards the last quarter of the book as Winston started to redeem himself a little.

K. Webster is a new author to me and I think I have just become a fan after reading this book. I have never read anything like Stroke of Midnight. It’s a modern day spin on Cinderella and boy was it a wild one. Ash is the Cinderella living with her father, her new stepmother, and her evil step brothers known as the “Terror Triplets.” She is working as a maid until she meets Winston Constantine a very very rich man who makes her an offer she can’t refuse. Ash and Winston have a very unconventional relationship. There were so many twists in this book and I can't believe we have to wait until January for the next one!
