Jason

More about the book

Enjoying pain with pleasure is a concept that resonates differently with everyone. For those who understand it, the feeling is undeniable; for others, no explanation will suffice. Jason Schuyler, a close friend of Anita Blake and a werewolf, finds himself needing to convey this complex idea to J.J., his childhood love and a talented ballet dancer in New York. Both share a deep affection but prefer non-monogamous relationships. J.J. identifies as enthusiastically bisexual, focusing on women, while Jason craves the rough sex and bondage she can't provide. Confused by Jason's desires, J.J. questions why he doesn't seek fulfillment elsewhere. To bridge this gap, Jason turns to Anita for help in articulating his needs. Meanwhile, Anita is navigating her own relationship challenges with her first female partner, Jade. Jason proposes that J.J. might assist Anita with her issues while also aiding him in explaining his kinks. Encouraged by their circle of lovers, Anita reluctantly agrees, and J.J. plans a visit that promises to be unforgettable for all involved.
