Really liked it. It avoided the trap that many books in this genre fall into - either the action is so mild that the protestations of pain seem pretentious and meaningless, or they seem abusive of the sub - to the point where it ceases to be amusing or even interesting. But the author has developed a brilliant device here, where the action is really quite extreme but the sub genuinely controls it too.
Well-paced, exciting, titillating and with a certain sense of lightness about it.
Great read.

Definitely on the extreme fantasy side as far as I'm concerned - I wouldn't dare to try anything like this! But even so, I couldn't help being fascinated and couldn't stop reading.

An eye opener for novice readers in the world of BDSM. It was arousing and eminently memerable.

I have personally been exploring the BDSM world for not quite a year yet, and while at times I thought the punishments to be extreme, as I continued through the entire book, I found myself more and more intrigued by what Leslie would cook up next.
Being an extremely analytical person by nature, I visualized all of these punishments, and looked for ways to use them in my own life, applying my own unique twist to the act.
Unlike some of the BDSM stories I've read, there was a certain fluidity in each of the stories, showing that the writing was well thought out from beginning to end. But I do need to agree with another review, in that the final story was a bit weak. The role changes were great, but it started off so...matter of fact.
I look forward to more work from this author.

An excellent read. I found there were a few bumps to be expected in a free unedited book. about a dozen typos total in all four stories, (a few misspellings, an occasional word repeated, and one instance of a British spelling in a book that is otherwise all American English) not much worse than some books that are professionally edited.
The stories are not so much titillating as they are intellectually stimulating. The first three stories are a wonderful collection of an extreme control freak who after an accident, resigns herself to being supervised and assisted in sexual punishments she has predetermined as the penalty for losing online backgammon games.
The fourth story is some time later after she has married and begins to play a game with her husband, to spice up what he considered a marriage gone bland. The fourth story was not quite as good as the first three in my opinion but the previous easily carried the last story. The ending of the last story isn't a surprise but certainly makes you wonder.
This collection is by far the best free ebook of this genre I have read.

The first part was a little strange. Punishment for punishment's sake. There was little or no sexual tension or arousal. The "Whore-for-a day" with her husband was fantastic!
4.5 stars

My God, where to start. If you ever assumed that a sadist was always on one end of a cane or torture device and a masochist had to be on the other, then this twisted story will certainly dispel that notion. In this case they both reside in the same sick mind. I can't elaborate on the array of pain inducing methods described in it, but I will say that at the end that I was relieved. I can't say more for fear of giving away something that troubled me until the end, so enough said.

Well, well, well...
I lit into this collection a bit uneasily, as sadism and masochism aren't "my thing." However, as I'm another Smashwords author who turns out the occasional bit of erotica, I feel a moral obligation (don't laugh) to review others. And BDSM games have featured in an increasing percent of erotic writing as the years have rolled past, though I could never say why.
I must admit, Leslie's self-prescribed predicaments were...entertaining? Fascinating? Hm, I need a better word, and I can't find one. They were surely painful to read about. Are there really women of that sort? Whatever the case, your characterization of her made her mysterious and alluring; just why did she need all that discomfort, pain, and humiliation?
The writing was straightforward and competent; the mechanical and stylistic errors were very few. (NB: "discrete" was not the word you wanted; that should have been "discreet.") The scenarios were imaginative, although Leslie should really learn a few games other than backgammon. Perhaps she will now that she's married!
You'll notice I awarded you five stars. That's well deserved in comparison to some of the other erotic writing I've read, here and elsewhere. If I were to judge "A Lady Pays Her Penalties" on a purely objective basis, I'd deduct a half-star because the first three stories in the collection were essentially plotless, and because Craig, Leslie's foil, needed a bit more character development than he received. However, we must judge erotica according to erotica's standards. Therefore: Very well done!
