My Review
Puckered is one of the most vile books I've read in a long time. So repugnant. I absolutely loved how sick and depraved it was.
The story definitely isn't for the faint of heart or the weak of stomach, that's for sure. There's a very strange kink involved, and if you can't guess what it is by the title and the cover, well...just steer clear if you can't handle an overabundance of bodily fluids.
Puckered tells the story of Percival James, an overweight man-child living at home with his mother. He has no job, pays no rent, and basically does nothing but eat, sleep, and focus on his weird kink.
I don't want to spoil anything, so I won't say anything more, but holy shish-kabobs, Batman, that twist at the ending, while something I suspected was coming, still made me feel like a giddy schoolgirl being asked to her first dance (something that's never happened to me in real life).
Puckered is, overall, a crazy, messed up thrill ride through the dark psyche of the human mind. I've written my fair share of stories involving kinks (fan fiction, not actual stories), but this was unlike anything I've ever read or written or even knew existed. It was pure insanity.
If you're game for horror that doesn't hold back and will both disgust and intrigue you, grab a copy of Puckered today. You may or may not regret it.
Five stars.
