This book has to be seen to be believed...
I normally post about books on goodreads, but I had to share this because it's so insane.
So, I just finished Susan Squires' The Burning. OMG. Wow. Just wow. I have to give this book props for the sheer gonzo insanity of the set-up, in which our hero, a vampire who offs misbehaving vamps, achieves his superpowers by controlling and denying his ejaculations. No, I am not making this up - giant chunks of the book involve some seriously serious (and graphic) BDSM training of him by three ladyvamps so he'd be able to be horny and yet not achieve orgasm, which he can then channel into power. If you are into dudes being branded or made to jerk off into blocks of ice, this book is for you.
At one point, bad vamps capture the hero and decide to kill him by having sex with him until he literally explodes from unreleased lust.
I...don't even know what to say to be honest. I spent giant chunks of it giggling. I can suspend my disbelief a lot, but even I have limits (more importantly, none of these characters react to events in any even vaguely recognizable or realistic fashion).
Anyway, the plot (are you really reading this for the plot?) involves our hero, an ancient and guilt-ridden vamp named Stephan coming across our heroine, who is a human who can read everything about a person through a single touch. Tbh, there is a rather sweet love story in this book between our protagonists, and I wish the book focused more on that instead of our hero jerking off into bowls under duress. But then I got this book expecting a romance novel not a BDSM erotica book, so I suppose I have nobody but myself to blame.
