Management Training

Beverly Johnson is the President and CEO of B. Johnson Shipping, a firm that she built up herself. Ms. Johnson comes across as a hard-nosed, cast iron businesswoman, with no interests except work. During that day, Ms. Johnson strikes fear into the hearts of her employees; she is particularly hard on Mark, one of the employees in shipping. In fact, she seems to use Mark to run all her errands and take out all her frustrations on. At night, however, Ms. Johnson willingly submits to Mark, allowing herself to be bound, spanked, and follows whatever sexual instructions he gives. Is there a future to their relationship? Beverly has to decide if she wants Mark or her business.

This is a short story (57 pages) about a relationship between an older woman and a younger man. It was previously published by another publisher under the title Executive Decisions. I thought the character development was adequate, although the author’s style is so spare that many of the scenes are somewhat cartoonish. The plot is interesting, with a unique sub-plot that will surprise you. The many sex scenes are very graphically – almost violently – erotic, containing male/female sex, oral and anal sex, transvestism, and domination, bondage and other forms of BDSM. These sex scenes are excellent, in fact, I enjoyed the short story for those scenes alone.
