Books like Becoming a Slave by Jack Rinella

A provocative retelling of the Sleeping Beauty tale, exploring the depths of sexual desire and bondage in a modern twist on an age-old story.

A coming‑of‑age tale in which a youthful heroine evolves from child to woman, confronting the cruelty of a former idol and seeking revenge for a painful betrayal.

When Marissa Winston arrives at the splendid mansion, sent by her wealthy lover, Tom Reed, for a two-week intensive training program in submission, bondage and discipline, she mistakenly thinks her beauty and seductive powers will give her an easy pass. Trainer Aaron Sterling isn’t easily seduced by the women he trains at Slave Castle. Though he is challenged by the sassy, sexy Marissa, he is determined to bend her to his will, impervious to her attempts at manipulation and her feminine wiles—or so he tells himself. Marissa enjoys light BDSM play but is in no way prepared for the all-encompassing slave training that tests every sexual and submissive limit she has, and then some. Aaron systematically breaks down every defense, stripping Marissa to her essence and revealing the sensual, submissive nature she has hidden from everyone, including herself. When Tom decides to break things off, Marissa realizes her ego is more bruised than her heart and love never entered the equation with Tom. The training under Aaron’s masterful hand has wrought a change in everything Marissa once thought she knew about her deepest needs and desires. Is Marissa falling under the spell of a man whose heart seems wrapped in ice, a man who might even be incapable of love?

A rebellious woman seeks her parents’ approval by giving up her edgy habits, only to be drawn back into a world of temptation and exploration while working with a charismatic colleague.

A fierce enslaved warrior and a relentless intergalactic trader must unite to escape a deadly threat, forging a bond that defies chains and deception.

"Winner of several national awards including the 1967 Pulitzer Prize, this classic study by David Brion Davis has given new direction to the historical and sociological research of society's attitude towards slavery. Davis depicts the various ways different societies have responded to the intrinsic contradictions of slavery from antiquity to the early 1770's in order to establish the uniqueness of the abolitionists' response. While slavery has always caused considerable social and psychological tension, Western culture has associated it with certain religious and philosophical doctrines that gave it the highest sanction. The contradiction of slavery grew more profound when it became closely linked with American colonization, which had as its basic foundation the desire and opportunity to create a more perfect society. Davis provides a comparative analysis of slave systems in the Old World, a discussion of the early attitudes towards American slavery, and a detailed exploration of the early protests against Negro bondage, as well as the religious, literary, and philosophical developments that contributed to both sides in the controversies of the late eighteenth century. This exemplary introduction to the history of slavery in Western culture presents the traditions in thought and value that gave rise to the attitudes of both abolitionists and defenders of slavery in the late eighteenth century as well as the nineteenth century."--Publisher description.
