I love the setting, the internal logic of this, the crazy stress of a looming, fixed deadline, where everyone seems to leave everything until the last minute, putting all of the pressure onto a few people.  That this happens on a regular cycle, so it is a fixed and known stress / pain point in life.  And that is before someone else is making a mess of everything.

So the situation all works so well, the idea of bondage as aftercare for the stress of work is wonderful, it fits, it is a release, it is how she gets through all of this!

For some reason though, despite liking and admiring all of this, feeling the structure is good, the characters never seemed to connect for me.  Perhaps because we only meet them in this moment of stress and upset, but I find it hard to connect or care.  There is so much love, romance and care here, this should be something that really moves and delights me, but I cannot figure out why it doesn't, which is irksome.

Very well written and a good setting though

I appreciate the kind words. Really sorry to hear that the characters didn't connect for you. Maybe it's because I wrote this from a selfish place? When I wrote this I was coming off two weeks of stressful work and really wanted somwthing like this for myself. Maybe that translates to the characters feeling fantastical instead of real and grounded. I tried to inject small things like the ear kiss, the way Max is taking care of the little things, etc. Sometimes characters just don't click. Sorry.

I know you said you couldn't place why that was, but if it occurs to you or you have a suggestion on what might have helped please let me know! I'm always looking to improve.

Ps sorry it seems like I'm on a bit of a skid with my stories and you enjoying them as much lately. Maybe some of the upcoming ones will be more to you liking. Again sorry! Hope you have a wonderful day!

Thank you for sharing. I find the contrast between Cora's 'no-nonsense' accountant persona and her private self really interesting. It's a great exploration of how people who have to be rigid and controlled in their professional lives often crave the exact opposite in their private lives.
