The Diary of a Submissive by Sophie Morgan

Sophie Morgan is an independent woman with a successful career in journalism. Underneath her perfectly 'average' exterior though, is a sexual submissive. In this expressive memoir she recounts her introduction to a dominant and submissive relationship, BDSM and kink.

Open-hearted and open-minded, this real-life story takes you on a journey of discovery and sexual development in intimate detail. Sophie's autobiography guides you through her experimentation as she shares with you every high, low and orgasm along the way.

Sophie Morgan's candid and no-holds-barred discussion of her mental and physical journey allows the reader to connect with her in a way that few books offer. Her matter-of-fact and unpretentious style are a refreshing change to the usual tone of voice found in bondage-themed books, making it a must-read for curious readers and lifestylers alike.

Passionate, erotic, titillating and emotionally frank, these memoirs have everything you would expect from a real-life story.

"I had often wondered what a good hard spanking would feel like. But in a million years I would never have expected it to feel like this.

"It was painful, obviously. A lot more than I was expecting - you can tell I'm of the generation that didn't get corporal punishment in school. The air whooshed from my lungs with each impact for the first few hits, and all I could think of was how much it hurt - definitely not the sexy paddling of my secret fantasies. In a panicked inner monologue I was trying to decide whether to put a stop to it proactively or just try and withstand it until he moved on when, suddenly, the sensation changed, blossomed almost. It still hurt, but the sting of my arse melted to a pleasurable ache in the seconds after the impact and, as the adrenaline pumped through me, suddenly even the pain of the initial hits was blurring with the warmth of the pleasure I was getting out of it."
