Editorial reviews

Natural Law, performed with steamy coyness by Maxine Mitchell, is a dark and disturbing story about a sexy homicide cop, Mac Nighthorse, who goes undercover to hunt the underground BDSM sex haunts to find out which dangerous dominatrix is thrilling her gladly paying customers with arousing pain and erotic torment before....murdering them. Ouch, indeed.

If you enjoy Natural Law, consider watching the similarly plotted film from 1980, Cruising, starring a young Al Pacino at the height of his game.

Publisher's summary

Mackenzie "Mac" Nighthorse is a highly respected homicide detective and a career cop. There isn't a dangerous situation that can back him down. However, the personal becomes uncomfortably entangled in the professional when he goes undercover in a high class BDSM club as a male submissive in order to find a Dominatrix who is winning the trust and then murdering her chosen partners. When his path crosses Violet Siemanski's, he realizes he's found a Mistress willing to be his ally in finding the murderess. But Violet is also going to shatter Mac's shields and make him question who he is and what he wants, a challenge more disturbing than any case he's ever worked.

3.5 stars BDSM with a Female Domme

**3.5 Stars** I very much enjoyed natural law. A BDSM story where the female character is the domme and the male character is the sub. I found the role reversal refreshing. This book starts out hot and bothered and doesn't let up. Violet and Mac have an instant connection and chemistry that is palpable. There is a bit of a mystery/suspense to the story as well. The book seemed a bit overlong for me, it think it could have been edited down for the same effect. There was also some phrasing and word choice that didn't make sense to me. For example, "cousining" was used multiple times but for the life of me I couldn't figure out what it meant. I also felt like while there was a lot of detail shared about the main characters personalities and relationship, I missed the rationale for why the D/s lifestyle called to them specifically. Maxine Mitchell does a great job narrating this book and bringing all the characters to life. The scenes in the club, Tyler's dungeon and the bedrooms were beyond fiery and unique. Definitely a story that will spark some new ideas ;)

Rare story of Alpha macho male submissive and a petite younger fem domme.

Strongly encouraged listening

There are those times in life, as limited as it is, that we find ourselves amazed by who we think we are . . . but, at the right time and with the right person we realize we can accept who we truly are! Being a submissive is not about relinquishing control and power! It is recognizing that submission is a gift that we give to the individual who we love and trust beyond all others. The one that we can surrender to and know that they, as well as we, are in touch with the universe and are meant to be connected. Joey Hill transcends boundaries to show that, through literature, this reality is achievable.

The interesting fact about "Love" Dominance and submission is that it is not simply fiction, but is an enlightening reality. Joey presents this with artistic quality. I was to write a book about my personal life (a true documentary on the real life experience) and decided against it when this series was released . . . as, Joey's stories represent significant realities of my own life and my current relationship with my Queen.

Joey shows that true Dominance/submission is real in the world around us. To all true Dominants and their beloved subs (and those who are intrigued by the life-style), I encourage listening to this entire series by Joey Hill . . . she is brilliant.

Deeply Moving Story, great narrator

Joey W Hill is a fantastic storyteller in the D/s genre. I enjoyed the battle of wills between the main characters in this book.

I want my money back

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

Nothing. This book turned out to be soft porn.

Would you ever listen to anything by Joey W. Hill again?

Not taking anything away from the talent of the Author, the contents need to be expressed on the cover, intro........something.

Would you be willing to try another one of Maxine Mitchell’s performances?

Yes

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Natural Law?

N/A

Any additional comments?

Way to rounchy for me.

I can't believe that people like to listen to such degrading things. I find nothing loving or romantic in this book. Just full of degrading sex acts.. I like a lot of the erotic books but I couldn't finish this book it was just too many sick things being done to the Sub.The D/S stuff I don't care for. But I have listened to some that have been OK. But this one went way to far in the sick things that she had her sub do.

Very Disappointing!

What would have made Natural Law better?

If all you want to hear is sex, this is the book for you. Very juvenile and not a 50 Shades of Grey if that was the intent.

What could Joey W. Hill have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

Add more content/story.

waxed poetic

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

this had a good outline with some new and interesting twists,but author waxed too poetic...I would read poems if I wanted poetry.

Has Natural Law turned you off from other books in this genre?

no, I like the genre,but this author's execution was way too slow.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Maxine Mitchell?

this reader has an AKA, I can't place it...not my favorite and I would not buy a listen by this reader again. Weak man's voice. What 6'4" 220 lbs man sounds like young boy. Sounds like Eva Kaminsky, who I do not like unless in the Sullivans only.

What character would you cut from Natural Law?

the characters were good. Outline good, but fill in of story just did not happen.

Any additional comments?

this story was on sale....I would not waste a credit on another of this author work unless reader changed and other reviewers gave lots of stars
