Whenever I start a book that is getting a lot of hype, I get a little bit nervous. Will I love it or will I hate it? Well, there was no need for me to worry over Interview with a Master. Holy hell. This book is different from your usual erotica BDSM novels. First is the fact that it is written by a man and from a man's point of view. For those similar to myself who have gotten intrigued (understatement) by BDSM after reading Fifty Shades of Grey, this perspective is enlightening. Getting inside a Master's mind was pretty darn fascinating to me. Second, the interview aspect I found unique. Instead of the reader experiencing Jonah's sexual encounters first hand and in real time, they are being retold to us from his memory. And yes, these stories are down right scorching.
It is no wonder that the aspiring journalist, Leticia, is falling for Jonah just by spending time with him and listening to the story of his life. I guess the ending could be considered a bit of a surprise, but honestly I had my suspicions so it didn't shock me. This isn't a typical romance story where boy and girl meet, date and fall in love and I liked that.
While author Jason Luke has said on Twitter that he hadn't planned on writing a sequel, hopefully all of us fans can convince him to write one. I would love to read more about Jonah and Leticia.
Interview with a Master was equally thought provoking and panty melting and a must read in my opinion. If you are intrigued and turned on by BDSM novels, you not only need to read this but then have your boyfriend/husband read it when you are done. Hell, even if you're not into BDSM, there is a lot a man can learn from this book.
