SUMMARY: A man is caught ogling his beautiful neighbor, by 
his sister-in-law. She, his sister-in-law, threatens to tell 
his wife unless he promises to do whatever she asks of him.

COMMENTARY: This is the sort of story that both arouses and 
frightens me at the same time. After reading it, I think 
that I have a better insight as to why some women are 
aroused by erotica that involves rape. What ends up 
happening to the main character isn't something that sounds 
appealing, but at the same time I can't deny that I found 
the entire story to be very arousing.

Is it rape if you are given a choice? The main character 
doesn't have to comply with the orders he is given by his 
sister-in-law. The alternative isn't very attractive, but he 
does have a choice. Given these facts, should this story be 
labeled as a "non-consensual" sex story? You decide, because 
I don't feel comfortable saying decisively that this is or 
is not a "non-consensual" sex story.

I do not recommend this story to those of you who prefer to 
read stories that involve strictly heterosexual vanilla sex, 
because this story really doesn't even include that flavor. 
If you have an open mind or just like stories that are a bit 
twisted then you probably will enjoy this one. It certainly 
is an intense ride.

SUBJECTIVE ANALYSIS: Excellent
