Unorthodox Therapy by Lilah E. Noir was so much more than I expected it to be. I've become very used to reading erotica, in short, sharp bursts, either through short stories or through novellas. Unorthodox Therapy, on the other hand, is a full-length novel. There's a reason why erotica tends to come in short bursts. It is very difficult to sustain reader interest in hot and steamy scenes over a full-length novel because the erotica itself tends to become fairly repetitive. I mean there are only so many ways you can describe a sex scene and an orgasm, right? Noir has managed to do this magnificently, in my opinion, and I applaud the author for that.
This novel is squarely focused on the two principal characters and Noir shows us a depth and a multi-faceted pair of characters. Lina, the driven, sometimes bitchy, business woman and entrepreneur has so much more to her character than the facade she presents to her employees and clients. Thomas is your archetypal, software geek, with a hidden secret; his desire to dominate in a relationship - to be the master. Unorthodox Therapy is not for the faint of heart. It is consensual and very explicit, BDSM and Master/Slave role play, that may offend some, but if you like your romance with plenty of hot spice, I can totally recommend this book to you.
I am a fan of Noir's style, of the extra dimensions she gave to her characters and really, this is so much more than just another erotic novel. It explores many elements of relationships and that age-old question; "what do you really, really want?" I really enjoyed this book and can highly recommend it. Five stars all the way for Unorthodox Therapy by Lilah E. Noir.
