Jaci Burton writes paranormal action, romance and erotic novels. I stumbled upon her Chains of Love series, which is basically SciFi BDSM porn. Bound to Trust is the first book in the series.

The book is not exactly PWP (though almost), so let me tell you about it: Marina is a police officer on earth. Her superior wants to put her on the case of some missing women, who were most likely shipped to the planet Xanta to serve as sex slaves. On Xanta, every male is a dominant and every woman is a submissive. While taking this assignment would mean the longed for promotion, it would also mean going undercover as sexy Xantanian Kaden’s submissive slave herself. Marina is an independent woman and really not into BDSM. But she takes on the assignment and discovers new sides of herself.

[SPOILERS]

Well, you can guess the rest. Basically, she lets herself be abducted, then gets bought by Kaden and as there’s surveillance everywhere, she has to pretend to be his sub. Then there’s a lot of fucking/ swinging/ bondage/ spanking/ voyeurism before Burton remembers that there was a story she should probably finish. They find the responsible people, say their goodbyes [It was just a job after all], then finally make up their minds, get together and will be happy forever.

Well, leaving aside the plot, which doesn’t really work and is secondary at best, this novel was weird.

Several Earth women have disappeared, their trail leaning to Xarta, a BDSM planet. Marina, Earth intergalactic investigator, knows that solving this case means a long-awaited promotion. But in order to find the missing women, she'll have to go undercover as a bondage slave on Xarta, something the strong, capable woman wants no part of.

Kaden is a Dom and a native of Xarta. He's also an intergalactic Marshall, sworn to break up the slave trading ring. His job is to take Marina as his submissive and train her while they're working undercover to expose the slavers and rescue the women.

Reluctantly, Marina agrees to act as a submissive, vowing to both herself and to Kaden that her relationship with him is nothing but an act. Until Kaden shows her a side of life that calls to her in ways she didn't expect. ( )

I chose this one to fit the mood in and because it looked like it might be fun. It was. Amusing but without any major depth, although the characters were appealing. ( )
