Our heroine was the favored slave of her master, until she took her pleasure into her own hands. Can she earn forgiveness?
This is the second book in the series and stands fine on its own. However, you might understand the current situation a bit better if they are ready in order. It all depends on how important the backstory is to you.
This is a novella length erotic read with strong elements of BDSM and punishments. The story itself is very well written and easy to read. The story includes lots of steamy material and falls into the dark romance category. If that fits your interests, then this should be an excellent read for you.
I found the story to be very enjoyable and it made an excellent weekend read.
Highly recommended.

This book is a devilishly dark romance, there are a number of scenes that may be triggers for readers. The main female character, Caroline is born into slavery and after disappointing her current Master she is tortured and abused constantly by numerous people in different ways. The author does not hold back and vividly describes these scenes, if this is an issue for you then please do not read this book. If you enjoy dark romances, then this book shall be just perfect for you. Caroline is strong willed and never gives up no matter what is done to her and she finds true love. As she endures the torture her lover does what he can to make things better for her and to make it so she is free. This story is extremely emotional and deals with the subject of human trafficking throughout. I was riveted to the seat from the start to the end of this book, I needed to continue reading to see where the plot went and what happened to everyone. This is a well thought out plot that is superbly written with characters that drew me in to the story and wouldn’t let go! This is not for the faint of heart. Although it is book 2 you could get away with reading this as a standalone as it does recap a bit from book 1 and how Caroline ended up in the predicament that she is in. However, book 1 is a very short read and does a great job of setting the scene for this book so if you can read that first I’d advise you to so you don’t miss out on anything. This is an awesome read and if dark romance is your thing then grab this book and settle in for a few hours of intense reading!

Great book the story was great, it is the continuation from book one Breaking the Rules so in series two, Caroline is put up for sale as a submissive slave and will be sold to the highest bidder. One master is trying her out to see if she is a great submissive. This series is really Dark with a lot of erotic description and abuse mentally and physically.
Thank you for allowing me to review this book it was great.

This book has a different spin on the sex trade dynamics in that the main female character was born to a woman that was a sex slave and was then sold off to her current master, Ben, at about eights years old. She had no further contact with her mother or any knowledge of other siblings. At a club she meets Derrick and things change for her in that she gives herself to him knowing that her master will be furious. Ben learns of her deception and decides to have her punished and then sold to the highest bidder. The story is full of drama, physical and mental abuse. The only time things seem normal in the story is when she is with Derrick. There is a HEA but a lot happens first and not all of it good. This book is not for everyone but still a good read if you keep an open mind and not get too drawn up into the story.
I enjoyed this second installment much more than the first. It is darker and had a couple of scenes that had me excited and at the edge of my seat.
I got more understanding of Caroline’s character but still don’t agree that she is a submissive, regardless of her upbringing. She is the most non-submissive I’ve ever met.
Master Ben’s character still confuses me. I don’t understand why he became the way he is or why Caroline was so special to him.
I would have loved more interaction between the women to support their friendship.
I am also left wondering about Master Derrick. Is he a true Dom? If so, his actions do not support it.
The relationship between Derrick and Caroline was sweet but felt a little forced due to the length constraint of the book.
I wanted to love this book. Overall, the series itself is intriguing but it’s not what I was expecting. I’m not sure if this is my error or if the book is marketed incorrectly. I was expecting the trials and tribulations of love in a D/s relationship. Instead it was about the survival and escape of a sexual slave.
Recommended to those who love a quick, dark and dirty read where character development may be a little less fleshed out.
I received an ARC of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
I just finished Pleasure and Punishment and I loved the storyline. It’s a hot, sexy, anger inducing, panty-melting, heart-throbbing story. I think I felt every emotion I have while reading this book.
Ms. Flame was able to bring me into Caroline’s world with vivid detail, allowing me to feel her emotions, even if they aren’t how I would have felt in certain situations; I would not have behaved as well as she did as a slave. The abuse this woman endured will have you angry and ready to slap the sh*t out of some people. But the incredible love Caroline felt and her gentle spirit carried through wonderfully, and to that I can relate.
I won’t give away the ending because you should definitely read it for yourself. If you’re ready for a wild ride, this book is for you.
This part two, Pleasures and Punishments of the Breaking the Rules Series is a dark BDSM/Erotic story that took me by surprise. Amongst the sex trade, the paid play dates and the abuse, Caroline and Derrick manage to find each other and fall in love. To be together however is easier said then done. Sadistic doms have their eye on Caroline and her owner wants the highest bidder for her. Treated like a dog and used like a slave, what Caroline endures is tough but the sexual pleasures she also finds in the punishments are hot and body trembling. The one thing however all these sexual experiences cannot give her is the one thing Derrick can… his love!! Definitely darker than I thought this story would be when I first started but it was definitely a HEA that I enjoyed.
I have to say I enjoyed this story up until the end. The story was intense and while sad it was also eye opening. The different ways of captivity. I felt the end was rushed and ruined a good story.

This is the second installment we find out why Caroline is living the life she does. I loved learning about her life prior to being with her Master. The richness of the storyline took me on a wild ride with each turn of the pages. What is Ben and Caroline future holds.

Pleasures and Punishments is the second book in the Breaking Rules series and continues the story of Caroline and Master Ben. When Ben finds she has betrayed him at the Master’s Ball, he severely punishes her by finding a new master in which to give her as a pleasure slave. Master Derrick is among the group of suiters. This is a very dark book which gives you more insight into Caroline’s past. The book is not for the faint of heart as it is highly abusive and cruel in the treatment of Caroline.

Caroline’s story continues. Master Ben has decied to get rid of her for her betrayal. The world that they live in is different. This is a story of control and also love. How a chance meeting can change everything. Even though there are dark and evil people trying to do harm. I could not put it down. This is not for everyone but it was for me. The characters and the contrast between them was awesome. The scenes she set up were amazing. I think this is a great story and the third book I read by LaSasha Flame, and I hope there is more.

I’ve read several books written by LaSasha Flame; she has done an excellent job at writing a good book; she is becoming one of my favorite authors. I can’t wait to read more of her books.
The story line caught my attention at the very beginning and kept me interested throughout the entire book.

Wow, this series is so hot, dirty and quick. I feel like I need to go back and find my drying towel, again.
“Pleasures and Punishments” is truly nit for the light hearted or beginners into the erotic world of BDSM. And this is just a snippet of it all.
I’m hoping that there will be more to come.

This is the second book in the series and I do recommend reading them in order. Caroline has been imprisoned by Master Ben and is being punished for betraying him. What will happen when she learns that these punishments are actually auditions for a new Master. Will she be able to endure? Fast-paced, intense read with loads of drama and suspense. Great characters and an entertaining and a dark story. I liked it.
Had I not obligated myself to read this book before reading book 1, I would not have. But since I did, this series doesn’t get much better. I am not into the whole “golden shower” kink and what in my opinion is child abuse and child rape is too far for me. The only redeeming thing about this book is Derek seems to be a goods dominate determined to shoe Caroline how the D/s power exchange should be in a healthy relationship. I have noe desire to read book3, but I hope Derek & Caroline find their HEA they so deserve.

What a fitting conclusion to the Breaking Rules series. This story is just as dark as the prequel and really describes some different BDSM roles. This is a very erotic story, not for the faint of heart.
