Set in Victorian England, this erotic BDSM novel features a courtship between a young woman and a dashing rake. Gabriel, Earl of Cranborne, is in need of a wife–preferably a sweet, submissive, well-trained wife who could run his household during the day and obey him in the bedroom at night. When he meets Miss Vivian Stafford at a friend’s wedding, he finds himself drawn in by the exact traits … himself drawn in by the exact traits he was looking for in his own wife and immediately moves to make her his own. Once the betrothal papers are signed, he arranges for her to attend Mrs. Cunningham’s Finishing School. This very special school will prepare her to be the wife of an Earl . . . and also prepare for her the very specific demands and discipline she’ll receive from her new husband at night.

Marriage Training is the first book that I have read by Golden Angel and it definitely won’t be the last. It was a thoroughly captivating and all-consuming read. There is very little of a storyline, but it was perfectly executed and I loved the characters. Gabriel is an overwhelming and completely alluring character, I really couldn’t get enough of his interactions with Vivian. Vivian was interesting and easy to like. I haven’t read a lot of erotic/BDSM romances but out of the ones I have read, this one is totally my favourite. The writing is fantastic and every emotion easy to capture. I highly recommend this story!
