I listened to this because of the theme of the story. It was a good story and took us through Paul and Emily’s relationship from past to present. I liked the detail into their start and how their exploration happened and where it led them. I loved Emily from the start. Her innocence and how she had lined after her brothers best friend since she was a child. Her deceit got her more than she bargained for and I was interested in how she was going to bring that up and confess.
In Kink... I wasn’t as fond of Paul as I was in Fate! I wasn’t prepared for how hard core he became what seemed like all of a sudden. I liked him better again as the story moved on. An loved him for her in the end!
This was my first Guillaume Dubois listen, I had some difficulty with his pronunciation of the words particularly and regularly... but overall thought he did well with the different voices and nationalities.

Honestly I enjoyed Fate I would give it 3 stars on its own. It was kind of cute and pretty easy to read.
Kink was a whole different experience.
There were several inconsistencies from how Fate had ended. I also didn't love the way that Paul's character was expanded on. The way their relationship progressed was also upsetting.Paul became much more violent then had even been hinted at in Fate. The relationship did not feel like a healthy BDSM dynamic. It felt like she was being coerced or brainwashed because the kinks just got more extreme, and we didn't get to see any of the negotiation. It seemed like Paul made a choice and didn't care if Emily would actually enjoy it for herself.
Overall I would give Kink a 2 star rating.

Kink by Nikki Sex is a BDSM erotic romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Guillaume Dubois. This is the second book in the Fate Duology.
This is the second book of Nikki’s that I have read and it definitely won’t be my last. I loved getting more of Paul and Emily’s story. I really liked that the book was a great introduction to the BDSM world as both Paul and Emily found how their relationship will work with the lifestyle. I really enjoyed getting both of their points of view throughout the story. It really brought the story to life.
Guillaume did a great job on the narration. I look forward to listening to more of his work in the future.
Note: I tend to not like listening to audiobooks at normal speed. I listened at x2 speed and I thought it was the perfect speed for the narration.

I Highly Recommend This Book!
When I first started reading this book I didn't think I was going to like it.
I was SO WRONG!
I gave it a 5 star even though there were a few (very few) editing problems. Really wish someone would properly edit these E-books! The only other problem was a few areas where the story got bound up in TMI. Some details can kill a story & make reading a book laborious. Thank goodness it only happened a few times, and got back to the real story relatively quickly.
The story itself was funny, sexy, romantic and exciting! Fast moving & kept you on your toes. There were instances where you really weren't sure where the story was going to go. I love that uncertainty. While there is always room for improvement, Nikki Sex did an awesome job!

This is the 2nd book about Paul and Emily. It opens with a big 'OMG' that keeps you in suspense throughout the book. This story is so well told that you easily forgive the editing errors. It is mostly written in Paul's point of view. But you also get Emily's perspective throughout.
YES, I gave it 5 stars even though there are editing mistakes. And YES, I deducted points for them. This story was just that remarkably powerful and brilliant.
Here is an example of the type of editing mistakes;
I feel hot puffs warm of warm air against me.
Trust me. I caught each and every error. But the story was so thrilling, the characters so amazing, that for every point I took away for editing errors I had to give back for the eloquence of the story. I know I highlighted and made a huge amount of notes. A lot of them I will be adding to Goodreads as favorite quotes.
The suspense of who the culprit is and if Paul will live keeps you on your toes throughout. You may have an idea, but you really just don't KNOW.
It took me 4 days to read because of its 'Intensity' factor. I had to take breathers! The eroticism is passionate and even profound. Paul has a sadistic side that he refers to as 'The Beast', and he is terrified of that side of himself. His character and Emily's are very complex and expressed in detail.
I loved so many elements in this story. The suspense, the characters, the complexities. If you are a lover of a really good story and adult romances, you so have to read this 2 book series! I can't express enough just how much I loved it!
