I knew before I opened it that it was going to be a book..., I was looking forward to losing myself in written erotica, but I couldn't even begin to imagine the delights until I opened the package. The book is a paperback, with reference to 3 other xcite books on the back. It is easily handled due to being lightweight and A5 size The cover has a masked lady with a collar around her neck as a picture - very appropriate to the title of the book. The picture and the description underneath the title signify that this is submissive erotica.
