Red would be a bad safe word choice.

The author's dialog between the pilot and ATC indicates she has absolutely no idea what really goes on. People magically appear and disappear from the kitchen. It's taken until book 3 for her to finally need the safe word????

Didn't know it was so weird. I just thought it was poorly written S&M.

Plot holes you could drive a truck through. Paper-cut-out characters. Unimaginative sex scenes.

I made the mistake of watching George Takei's version of it. Now I can't get his voice out of my head while reading it.

Watch at your peril.
