I’ll be the first to admit that I’m late to the Sara Cate party, but I’m so happy I finally got here. I”ve been binging her Salacious Players Club series since the first book, Praise, came out with a new cover a few months ago. I usually fly through books but with this series I’m taking my sweet time. I just finished Give Me More, the third book in the series, and while it’s fresh on my mind I wanted to do a review. I’ll eventually go back and review the others because wow, they’re all absolutely brilliant.
Give Me More is the story of Hunter, his wife Isabel and his best friend, Drake. Hunter and Drake grew up together and he’s been a fixture in Hunter and Isabel’s marriage. Drake is the construction guy for the Salacious Players Club, a kink-friendly club where members can live out their fantasies in a safe, sane and consensual environment. The SPC is the brainchild of Hunter’s group of friends; after losing their jobs, they wanted to embark on their own project and when they revealed interests in kink, establishing their own club made all the sense in the world.
Hunter is the only married member of the group. He’s happily married, but lately he’s been craving something that he can’t explain. As the trio embarks on a roadtrip to research kink clubs around the country, Hunter starts to realize that watching his wife and Drake together is what he wants…and that’s only the tip of the iceberg.
I was so thrilled to come across Sara Cate’s books. They’re so refreshing and kink-positive. There’s no question she’s done a lot of research and understands what she’s writing about, making sure to present kink in a positive light and giving the characters space to enjoy themselves without judgment. It’s so refreshing to read books that feature kink and BDSM tenets without them being labeled as negative or taboo.
The book features all three points of view and Cate deftly juggles their perspectives and their personalities; this is particularly helpful as the trio navigate their complex feelings for each other.
I have loved each and every Sara Cate book I’ve read and I’m eager to dive into the next books in the series. If you haven’t read Sara Cate’s Salacious Players Club series yet, I highly recommend that you check it out.
