Why this must be read:

I'm kind of cruel. I'm also an equal opportunity perv and pretty damned shameless.

With that in mind, I present to you my first rec, and the fic that might not have happened without my cajoling, and the remainder of the series which might never have seen light without a few innocent whispers at the right time... /shameless

Seriously, though. This is a gorgeous piece of writing. rebecca's strengths shine through here... not only does she have an amazing grasp on the characters, but she takes a deft hand and makes the BDSM power dynamics believable and sexy as hell.

In addition to being thick with character exploration and hot with the kink, this is a lovely, long, meaty fic. Have water on hand... you're going to need it.

( excerpt (not porny) )

Be sure to read the series in order, then go back and read the three ancillary fics and two ficlets that supplement the story.

For your reference, even if you're not confused by now, that means:

Read the main series first...
Pavlovian Response, Behavioral Conditioning, Involuntary Reaction, Control Theory, Positive Reinforcement, Impulse Control.

...then the ancillary fics (which go at any point after Impulse Control) ...
Whipping Boy and Sensory Therapy. Post-Traumatic is a tag to the episode Frame-Up.

... and the ficlets the fourth wall and you can't hide fit anywhere after Impulse Control as well.

Why this must be read: This is just lovely. It takes so many of the negative tropes of love-going-wrong and turns them into a delicious seduction. And as with all of airgiodslv's work, it's beautifully written too.
