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).

**originally posted at Bedroom Bookworms blog. See my full profile for more information**This is really just a short story. I got lost on Amazon the other day (admit it, it happens to you, too) and ended up one-clicking some intriguing freebies. (Intriguing = intensely smutty, okay?) Roped happened to be one of them. It’s about a plus sized girl in a sex club with two men. Look, I SAID “intensely smutty” OKAY? I was in a mood. Deal. And ya know, it was good. Obviously it’s a short erotic tale. It took me less than a half hour to read. It’s not an epic love story. It’s erotica, plain and simple. But for a quickie? It was good. Like quickies should be!There isn’t a whole lot more to say. Katie is hot for Leo and Quinn who are rope experts in a sex club. The descriptions are hot. Heavy bondage isn’t really my thing, but I still thought it was hot. If it is your thing, you’ll really like it. Really.There is a cute (am I allowed to use the word “cute” in a review about BBW M/M/F erotica?) twist at the end which made me smile at the end. It’s a good erotic read.Smut Factor: 5 stars- Had to wake my husband at 2am to quench my “need.”Character likability: 4 stars- I wish we were friends. (um. Naked friends.)Storytelling: 4 stars- Totally bought it.Writing and editing quality: 5 stars- Excellent!

This is a short BDSM story with some depth. Loved the way it had a serious edge to it. Katie is drawn to a local BDSM club and specifically the two hard rope experts there.Yeah you can guess where this is going. But at least its a very sexy ride along the way with some serious heat. Only wish it were a little longer but the book was free. What else can I say?Eliza Gayle is one of the better BDSM authors out there. Good romance and erotica mix.

I enjoyed reading this story about Leo, Quinn & Katie. They had an amazing sexual connection, even though Katie just came to watch them at the club. But one day while she was watching she had the most incredible daydream of her life with an amazing orgasam to boot. In fact it was so explosive that Leo & Quinn witnessed it and told her she was theirs. Read this book, very enjoyable, and will make you cum a lot!

This book was outstanding. I felt like I got to know the main character. The BBW aspect was handled lightly without it being the focus of the story & without her coming off as whiny as they so often do. The alpha males were appealing as well as uber hot. I'm drawn to ropework and menage and this story more than satisfied both! I can't wait to read more books by this author!

Roped may be a short story, but it certainly packs a whole lot of heat. Katie has been going to the club for a while, but is insecure about her body and is too shy to ask for what she wants. After fantasizing about Quinn and Leo, the reality is too good to be true. The author has provided enough personality for the characters that makes this quick read truly enjoyable.

Roped tells the story of Katie and her fascination with watching two Doms at the Purgatory Club using ropes to control submissive women. She has an adventure with them after hours until the twist at the end of the story. The twist made the story, although this is the start of a series it left me satisfied with where the story is headed...

A short, sizzling hot interlude.Reticent Katie loves to watch two dominants work with rope. She dreams of participating, but until one hot encounter, thinks it will never happen. I enjoyed the build up, moment, and the little twist.This was literally a taste and perfect when the reader wants something quick though relatively complete.

Absolutely loved this book and would highly recommend it to all lovers of great sexy erotic stories. The author has created a beautiful woman who is interested in the BDSM lifestyle but more then anything on the two dominant men who work with ropes.

Kate goes to a fetish club to be able to express her sexual self freely. When do dreams become reality? Will Kate be willing to take a chance on her own needs and desires? This short story is hot and will leave you breathless and anxious for more!

The sex scenes were very hot, well written. Like one of the other reviewers, I hadnever read a book with 2 guys/1 girl but always wondered. If all Ms. Gayle's booksare like Roped I will be checking more of her work.

What a great story as Eliza spins her tale of desire. Descriptions regale the human needs lying under the surface of a great little sub. Two Doms provide just enough guidance for the sub to release her inhibition.

So Hot. This is the steamiest book I've ever read. And the end was such an unexpected twist. Loved everything about this book. Left me tingling and wishing there was more! Highly recommend reading

Oh, a sexy little diddy... I was pleased with this quick read. And that little twist at the end? Didn't see that coming but sure was nice! Looking forward to reading more of the series!

This is a brief introduction into a passionate, intense lifestyle. Katie has watched Leo and Quinn from afar, wishing and hoping.....can dreams really come true?
