The cover and blurb go something like this:
The Art Of Domination: Model Release
A Domination and Submission Romance
Reformed wild girl Iva
Moreau is doing a passable job of convincing herself that leaving behind the
artist lifestyle for the safety of suburbia and the respectability of academia
is the mature decision. She suffers her job as an Art Department secretary at
Vandergriff University, belittled by her supervisor and pursued by lecherous
professors, as willing penance for her former life on the art scene and all the
damage it ultimately did not only to Iva but to her family. But she can’t
maintain that distance when her baby sister, Cheri, starts down a path all too
familiar to Iva.
Unrepentant bad boy
Nolan Beal is the up-and-coming rock star of the photography world with a
seven-figure salary snapping shots for glossy fashion magazines and his own
nouveau noir erotic exhibition at the
gallery in town for controversial and provocative art. His work explores power
and the hypocrisy behind sex… and the masks people use to hide their true
natures and desires even from themselves. Themes of domination and submission
run as rife through his life and his liaisons with beautiful woman as they do
through his photographs.
When Iva shows up at
Nolan’s studio to demand that the photographer stop using her younger sister as
a model for his erotic exhibition, an instant recognition and attraction
between them causes the very different masks they wear to slip. And they strike
a deal. In exchange for Iva submitting to one modeling session for Beal, he
will give her Cheri’s signed model release and relinquish the right to use the
photographs forever. The perfect solution, giving Iva the chance to see once
again how self-destructive the hedonistic artist’s lifestyle is while she is
also saving Cheri from the same mistakes, and providing Nolan with the
opportunity to crack the false front Iva presents to the world and possess the
passionate submissive he senses behind her defenses.
Neither are prepared
for the passions released by the first meager glimpses of the true Nolan and
Iva behind the masks.

Expect The Art Of Domination 2: Photo Slave next week, on Friday, January 10, 2014, when it will be priced at 99 cents instead of $2.99 for its debut weekend. Until then, I leave you with a little bit of trivia from Model Release. There's a reference in the novella to a song about paper cut hearts, which comes from a gorgeous song by Jillette Johnson called Basset Hound. I thought it would be fun to include it here, from Youtube:
(Please stand by while Blogger torments me for trying to include a simple video....)
Okay, Blogger can't find the version I want to include of Jillette's Slacker performance, even though it's up clear as day on Youtube, so I chose this one for the recording quality. Nothing to look at but the pretty photo, though. :(
