Publisher's summary

When TV commercial production coordinator Meg Curtis gets stood up by her longtime boyfriend, she vents her frustration by feverishly writing in a diary.

At a time when she is unsure about all things romantic, she encounters fifth grade teacher Regina Baker at yoga class, a free-spirited single mom who is beautiful, playful, and impossibly intriguing. What starts as friendship, turns sharply toward something more as they learn they each share a love for very dark and unconventional sensual expression. Shocked, yet thrilled by the intense level of Regina's erotic desire, Meg explores her own deep-seated desires that have been locked away in the shadows her whole life.

Erotic, amusing, and profoundly romantic, Owning Regina is a tale that will awaken you, possess you, and transport you to a reality that steams with passion and vulnerability. This book is intended for mature audiences.

Critic reviews

"I would recommend this book to anyone who wants more than a cheap thrill out of their reading, to anyone who enjoys seeing positive, realistic, and consensual depictions of kink in writing, and to anyone who wants to understand what kink is - what kink really is." (Lily Zheng, The Stanford Daily)
"All in all, Owning Regina is a strikingly sexy book that I recommend to anyone curious about BDSM. Owning Regina can easily be devoured in one sitting - as the days in Meg's life go on, there is an urgency for more and Elstrom does not hold back with her delivery. Having taken my first bite into a BDSM fiction featuring two female lovers has opened my mind to endless possibilities outside the lines of a vanilla romance. Aside from the swift declaration of love in a short passage of time (I often find these storylines unrealistic and stereotypical), I found Owning Regina to be a very fun read!" (Danielle - The Lesbrary)

Dear Diary, This book is Sexy HOT!

Would you consider the audio edition of Owning Regina to be better than the print version?

Hell Yes! I don't think you can get overly stimulate by reading it.

What other book might you compare Owning Regina to and why?

Can't compare this to self Dear Diary entries or BDSM books. Elstrom brings out introduction and understanding to BDSM and lesbians love and funny way. This book is from Meg POV. Her struggles about kink and sexual orientation.

Have you listened to any of Hunter Keanon’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No. I have not listen to Keanon's performances. She did a wonderful job. I like how she did different voices for Meg and Regina. I like the different type of music styles between each stores. The sound effects help bring the book alive!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes I would. Unfortunately real life of phone calls and work got in the way of continuing at best parts!

Any additional comments?

While I don't have any personal fetishes. I love Meg description of her boots fetish!
This book felt so real time to life of Meg and Regina relations building up.

not your average lesbian romance

i absolutely loved this story so authentic and it felt like i was right there the way she defines everything from the feeling between to the pleasure and pain they endured. if you are squeamish or cant hand some hardcore bdsm i do not recommend this book it is not for the faint. all in all great book, enjoy u wont be dissapointed

Sexy and fun!

Great fun sexy story...something new. I'm not sure I liked the narration voices as I didn't think they fit some of the characters. I would recommend this book to others who are open to a bit of kink!

Fun listen

I enjoyed this listen. It may not be as professional as others, but it was definitely an enjoyable story. I like to think it's a good way to introduce people to kinky/lesbian/age-gapped relationships.

This needs to be a movie!

I’m usually all about kidnapping fantasy. But I’m really growing to love stories like this. Most kink books are about dirty clubs with latex covered patrons. But the normal everyday women who get really dark in private is a huge turn on. It’s the hottest book I’ve listened to. The format and the music really add to the experience.

The only nit picks I have is there are some audio quality issues that are pretty obvious. And more that once, the narrator thinks that there is a “T” at the end of the word “across”.

The hottest romance book ever

Everything about this book was great. The story line was interesting. The multiple
voices and music made it a great listen. The sex scenes were incredibly hot.

Better than I would have expected.

This "novel" (more like oral storytelling) kept me engaged but probably not in the way the author really intended. The writing style was a real mix, though. The narrative was conversational in some places but clinical in many others. For some reason, I stayed engaged, but this was unique. It generally works, but I suspect it was the excellent narration that really made this a workable story to listen to--in spite of the slave/owner and BDSM themes, a kink I don't have.

I can why the reviewers loved it or hated it.

WOW! Let your freak flag fly! I couldn't put it down. The diary and music made it different and I didn't always like the music, but that's a minor point. There was a little too much sex, but the author made a decent job of explaining why. If you're looking for an education on bondage and dom/submissive game, look no further. 50 shades fans should like this.
