        Hot damn Sailor! How did you manage to sneak in all those boat-y related things and *still* make it hot?! Seriosuly, while I can see you obviously love your sailing, the story was well written and the characters were believable. I loved how caring William was. I wouldn't have minded it being a bit longer but the characters explored a bit more (because you definitely didn't lose my attention!) (9/10)

        - Dear albear:
 Thank you for your very kind comments.  I an thinking of a sequel to Joanna's and William's story, perhaps inland, for a change (!) read "chains" ;-).  I re-read the story myself for the first time and, yes, I think I can expand it.  Stay tuned, my friends.  I am so glad you enjoyed the work.  :) Sailor

        Very well written and i loved it!!!!  A story that shows the caring and freedom that a D/s relationship can offer to B/both parties.  Joanna's need for love and affection from William is very real to life.  William's attentions are so gallant and caring, i almost had tears at T/their reunion.  Thank You for showing what it can be like. (9/10)

        - Dear Avalonslut:
 Many thanks for your kind remarks about Joanna Smith -- seaman apprentice.  This is my first-ever venture into BDSM and romance and your comments are most encouraging.  I will try a sequel -- someday -- possibly involving a deeper relationship between Joanne and William.  Consensual slavery, perhaps?  Thanks again for writing. Sailor

        The characters "feel" very real and have enough personality to make the developing story much more enjoyable. The imagery of surroundings and environment is very good and adds a lot to the story. Thank you for posting it! (8/10)

        - Dear spandexbound:  Many thanks indeed for your compliments about Joanna Smith and her Dom.  This is one of my personal favorites -- and my first ever foray into the realm of romance and BDSM -- and you have encouraged me to continue in this theme.  Many thanks.
 Sailor

        The plot was well conceived. I found the story very romantic. The visual descriptions were realistic and very exciting at times. The characters were very good. I liked this story because I am a sucker for romance. I thought this story could use a bit of work on sexual dialog. While I enjoyed your descriptions I was not drawn into Joanne’s sexual fantasy. More description of how she felt as she was being bond and how her body was reacting could really make a woman relate and get all wet. All the characters were interesting. If I had to pick a favorite it would be William. A strong and caring Dom is always a turn on.   (8/10)

        - Thanks for your kind remarks, Jadetiger.  Your comments about deepening Joanne's character with respect to her sexual fantasy is noted and I will try to addresss this in another story and the sexual dialogue.  This is my first-ever romantic-BDSM story and I hope to have another go fairly soon.  Thanks for taking the time to write; your comments are appreciated.
 Sincerely, Sailor
