When college student Ana steps in at the last minute to cover an interview of a local tycoon for the uni paper, she never imagines how what is supposed to be a one off meeting will change her life completely over the months to come. She has no plans or expectations to see him again, but Christian Grey knows what he wants and takes great pains to get it, so with Ana now next on his list of target acquisitions, she has very little hope of escaping unscathed. Swiftly realising that he is not your average wealthy bachelor, Ana falls head first into a foreign and confusing new world she has no clue how to navigate. With pressure on to sign on the dotted line or leave and never return, Ana has to decide how far she’s willing to go to follow her heart, and when she should listen to the screaming voices in her head instead.
This is erotic fiction that firmly falls into the by women for women category. I’ll be buying copies for all my girlfriends this year but my own version came from the publishers, for which I thank them.
This book has one clear angle, the BDSM thing. If you prefer a bit of varityvariety, [[Deep Inside by Polly Frost]] is full of short stories which mix it up a bit. You might also appreciate [[The Bride Stripped Bare by Nikki Gemmell]].

|comment=Now I know that you probably think that it's a bit weird for my to write a review on this however I think the author did an amazing job. She managed to capture so many different emotions and problems in her writing which I love. Christian Grey is a hard working man who had a rough past whilst Anna Steel is a very different person with an amazing family, friends and a part time job. Maybe this is what some people mean when they say that "opposites attract." In my opinion I prefer 50 shades darker and 50 shades freed because you start to see who Christian Grey really is, a caring, loving man who will do anything to keep his family and the woman he loves safe which seems to be a challenge when he makes an enemy along the way. When Anna starts having 2nd thoughts about being with Christian he breaks down and explains how he feels and I couldn't put the books down. I just think that the author of these books did a wonderful job because she really captures the readers attention by writing about real problems instead of the typical boring relationship. You're hooked to them the second you start reading and I would definitely recommend them.
