Narrative During Books Bent (Hammer #1)
Marcus knows Jim is his minutes after meeting the snarly, jumpy ex-professor at the local bookstore. He thinks Jim is a natural submissive, someone who needs order and discipline in his life to help with Jim's anxiety and bad health habits. So Marcus decides to pursue Jim relentlessly, because even if Jim's mouth is saying no, his body is saying yes. There's a lot more to Jim than meets the eye, and Marcus will have to be careful.Jim knows what it means to lose everything, knows what it's like to be without friends or family. Jim feels broken, and knowing that he likes the kinds of weird things Marcus wants to do to him only makes him scared that he's losing his mind. Their chemistry is so real, so genuine, that Jim lets Marcus wear him down, lets Marcus take control. Eventually, his trust grows, allowing them to enter into the BDSM lifestyle together, learning about each other every day, with every scene. Jim is still uncertain sometimes, though, and he thinks Marcus might just want him because he's cracked.
Can this top and bottom pair find a way to understand their wants and needs, and make a life that works for them alone?

2.5 StarsI thought this book was never going to end! There were some things I liked about it and some that I didnt. Apart from the length, I believe some parts of the book were very similar, with repetitive scenes and dialogue that often I had to check the page number to ensure I wasnt reading the same pages. Normally, I want my BDSM books to be a little more compact. Also, the lack of plot got unnerving after 50%.(view spoiler)[The piercing and tattooing parts felt suffocating? (hide spoiler)]I**3.5 stars** I've learned something about life from this book...A spanking solves everything.Feeling depressed? Spank it out! Feeling like having a coffee? You need more spanking! Feeling sad? Spanking time! Feeling happy? SPANK! Feeling horny? Spank, spank, spank.My three stars here is misleading. I actually really liked this book, even loved it at times. However, it also was riddled with problems, which knocked down my rating a bit. When this book started, I was kind of horrified. Poor Jim
I must admit that this book has left me a little bit confused. Was this about domestic discipline? Total Power Exchange? S & M? Added to the confusion is the back story of Jim...without a proper explanation of WHAT exactly happened meant that I became less sympathetic to his emotional issues the longer the book progressed. It also meant I was miffed when the book finished as I stuck it out to find out how the issue was eventually resolved. I hate loose ends...especially ones this big.Another
Okay, I attempted to read this one several months ago and couldn't get through it. It just fundamentally bothered me.The beginning still bothered me, but I was able to suspend my disbelief enough to just go with the flow and not worry too much about issues dealing with consent and whatnot (as weird as that sounds).Ah, perhaps I'm just a jaded soul now and can take it.It's weird because it starts off rather like non-con and then goes into dub-con and then you're blinking wondering if you fell

I really enjoyed this first book in Sean Michael's 'Hammer Club' series. One of the things I liked the best was watching Jim's evolution and seeing the confidence he began to have in himself. Having been dealt a pretty shitty hand, far more than once, in his lifetime, seeing him working and trying so hard to trust in Marcus and their relationship was lovely.There were a couple of plot points that were raised but then fizzled out which kind of bummed me a bit, but the writing was so good, I
The patience is the strong men's virtue. Or women... Since to read Bent by Sean Michael you need to have a lot of patience, it's a 400 pages book and so, patience, time and a comfy chair. That is, if you are like me and usually you want to finish a book in the same day you start it. Jim was a college teacher. Gay but maybe not so out, he was involved in a scandal when one of his female student accused him of rape. Obviously Jim was innocent, but nevertheless he lost his work, his home and also
