Sweet-N-Sassi gives Safeword: Quinacridone 5 Stars

Susan at Sweet-N-Sassi gave Safeword: Quinacridone Five Stars and said: Candace pens “Safeword Quinacridone” in an intense plot with extremely hot sex scenes. Her characters were interesting and I enjoyed the love story within, but WOW this was really steamy! Filled with BDSM that brought the book over the top. A well written and recommended book for all erotica BDSM fans, but not for those with a faint heart.

What’s on the Bookshelf reviews Safeword: Quinacridone

Jen at What’s on the Bookshelf reviewed Safeword: Quinacridone and seemed to enjoy it. Here are a few of the things she said: Candace has a knack of writing topics that I would never expect to like. She pushes the limits and makes you go beyond your comfort zone. At least for me since I’m not in the BDSM lifestyle at all. What I love about her books, and SAFEWORD QUINACRIDONE is no exception, is that her characters become real in no time at all. This is the story of meeting the person you’re supposed to spend your life with. Cara and Travis have unique wants and needs when it comes to sex, and Candace does a wonderful job showing you a different side of passion. I loved the way everything weaves together. The secondary characters add another layer to the story. If this is your type of read, then I recommend you give it a shot. You won’t be disappointed.

DelightedReader.com reviews Safeword: Quinacridone

Shari at Delighted Reader gave Safeword: Quinacridone a B+ and said: Candace Blevins has knocked my socks off with all her books. When asked to review Safeword: Quinacridone, I jumped at the chance. I never expect a light BDSM book with Candace. She writes honestly, but beautifully even if I can’t always get into some of the tougher scenes in her books. As I read the scenes of Cara being objectified, I was disturbed as well as interested to understand why. Why was I disturbed and why was she craving to be objectified? The objectification is pretty extreme in the story, not a light look into this kink. Darkly hard to read but beautifully written. Touched on some dark elements I am not sure I ever want to experience or possibly read about again. It hit “hard limits” with me and I can read a lot, lol. Above all the author has a wonderful writing style even if I am not comfortable with the subject matter. Would I read another Candace Blevins book? Yes, in a heartbeat. Her voice is rich, intriguing and hypnotic as it draws you into a world you may have never known existed. Check out Shari’s review to read the other nice things she said.

Guilty Pleasures Book Reviews gives Five Stars and a True Gem award to Safeword: Quinacridone

Kitty Angel at Guilty Pleasures Book Reviews gave Safeword: Quinacridone Five Stars, and a True Gem Award, and said: Some things are disturbing to this very vanilla person but, the way it was written was phenomenal! This was BDSM to the extreme -– not just whips, chains, hand-cuffs, floggers -– a total different BDSM that shows a true masochist and a true sadist at it’s best. Will I read more of Candace Blevins? Most definitely. I absolutely enjoy her characters. They are all totally different and I can’t wait to see what she has in store for us next.

Safeword: Quinacridone gets 4.5 out of 5 kinks from KinkyBookReviews.com!

Reviews: Debbie at Kinky Book Reviews gave it 4.5 out of 5 kinks and said: I fell in love with the hero from the start. I was really in the moment at all times with this story and felt like I was fighting for this relationship right along with the characters. The scenes literally jumped off the page, sometimes making me want to run into Travis’s arms…sometimes away! Overall, this was an excellent and intense read. I feel that every book Ms. Blevins writes is better than the last and this was her best so far. I look forward to the next journey she takes us on. I also fear it a bit. _____________ You can see the blurb and one excerpt here, and another excerpt here. Safeword: Quinacridone is available at Amazon.

Cover Reveal — Safeword: Quinacridone

I am uber-excited about sharing Travis and Cara’s story. I don’t have a release date yet, or an official blurb, but I have a cover!!! Travis is a computer geek, Cara’s an artist. The couple explore objectification, which may not sound too extreme at first glance, but I’ve seen couples take it much farther than I’d want to go. These two keep it mostly sane, but the temptation is there, to see how far they can travel down the rabbit hole. If you’ve read my earlier books, you’ll note two major differences in this one. My previous works dealt with experienced players, but Cara will learn about world of BDSM from Travis. More substantially, Cara is not a submissive, and there’s very little D/s — only what’s needed in a scene to integrate the objectification scenarios Travis builds. Here’s the warning you’ll eventually see below the blurb. If watersports are a major squick for you, don’t let it scare you too bad, as it’s only in one scene, and is addressed as more curiosity than kink. Warning: This title contains graphic language, consensual BDSM, extreme objectification, bondage, watersports, chemical play, fisting, temporary body modification with saline injections, and the use of toys including clamps, canes, plugs, paddles, whips, floggers, and zip-ties. In a nutshell, there’s a decent amount of S&M — more than most books, but not to the levels in my previous works. We see very little D/s between our couple, though we see a good bit from secondary characters. I’ll repost this short teaser excerpt, as I think it gives a good introduction to Travis and Cara. “Do you remember when I told you to say yellow if you needed me to realize you couldn’t breathe, or wanted me to understand something wasn’t working for you?” She looked […]
