When I first stumbled across Roped, I was thrilled and a little confused...but I'll talk about that later...Roped is a short but fun read, with alluring and vivid characters. Katie is a believable protagonist with which many of us could easily identify. Her desires and fears as she is faced with the realization of a long term fantasy are a wonderful introduction into the world of Purgatory. I want to read the whole series now!It does, however, seem like a bit of a rushed story. The progression from one scene to the next seems hurried and dream-like and the twist at the end does not come as much of a shock. The juicy bits are, however, juicy and there's rope and teasing in all the right places....as for the confused part...it just so happens that there is a fetish event in North Carolina called Purgatory, which hosts many fetish demonstrations including a rather spectacular rope suspension show. A little over four years ago, I was a girl on a balcony watching two guys swing rope-covered girls over the crowd and wishing I could be a swing for the evening. Today I am writing this review in my living room with the real-life "Leo" (I'm going to call him that from now on) reading over my shoulder. For those who may be curious, he is just as devious as his literary counterpart and equally prone to pinching sensitive parts :). (He would also like me to point out that his "groupies" aren't all that bad).
