Great story!
Very well written, with good creation of the setting and atmosphere/mood...
Tho I sometimes had to struggle with the willingness and lack of spine Judith displays, I on the other hand can follow those 'flaws', by the blind ambition that drives her...
Though the story seems to have come to an end, I do hope there is more to follow; there's room for further development...
JJ (10/10)

The good stuff:
The sex was well written, good grammar and spelling.
The bad stuff:
The whole story felt forced. I always had the feeling not Emily but the author forced Judith. E.g. a young, beautiful and hungry summa cum laude attorney starts in a small city? If she's so hungry why doesn't she try it in NY, LA, London or where the big fish swim?
How would a normal not submissive woman react when a stranger grabs her breasts from behind? Stand up, turn around and (try to) slap him? At least yell "get your hands of me pervert"? Or meekly ask her host to do something?
Then she always reacts in the wrong way. At the first lunch she is too shy to ask for a robe when it would have been easy. Then she sinks in herself in shame. Yet at the first bridge club meeting she is trying proud defiance (which would have worked at the lunch but of course not here).
Then she gives in to Em not because she's afraid of more nights with cruel mistresses but because she is afraid that Em will break her word. If she is afraid of that, why does she think she will honor her word in 2 years? Why does she not at least make Em spell it out instead of assuming and enslaving herself in her mind?
And then why doesn't she try to change the rules? She has information about the most intimate financial kind about Em. There's no dirt there? All the mistresses try to keep their club secret. There's excellent blackmail material there. Why does she not try to find other malcontent slaves and pool her resources? I one woman comes with a crazy story like that it's just a crazy story. But if a doctor, a lawyer, a stockbroker,... come out they tend to get taken seriously. If they had a united front they could get out from under the bridge clubs thumb (because they want to keep it secret). She's a lawyer for gods sakes, it's their job to sue people! Almost every reaction of Judith feels wrong. The author (not Em) basically boxes the character in, making her unbelievable.
The very bad stuff:
I find it very dishonest if a published author puts an excerpt of his/her purchasable books on this site without a disclaimer that the story probably will never be finished (on this site). I call that deceitful advertising. (6/10)

The story is full of wit, readable, deeply interesting. I think Arika is probably a woman author. She is well up in world of women. Two very strong women fight a duel in the story. Both alike have own interest. Emily has a huge advantage over Judith. But I think she wants to play only with her, she won’t bring her to ruin. Such are the women! Judith is at the mercy of her slave but she makes a great profit from slavery. It’ll read very interesting at what price she’ll play…I wonder! (10/10)

A good storyline - shades of Whore 94 - a professional woman's debasement to further her career. Well written.
This story is developing tremendously. I really look forward to each episode. (10/10)

Very well done. I love stories about rich sexy dominant women who can have anything they want ... like naive young ambitious professional girls. I hope this becomes a very long story! (9/10)
