Reader Review: I think E.L. James took the time to map out this book, something that I don't think was done in the first. Where the first book was a bunch of sex scenes linked by the description of and discussion about an s&m contract, this one was a real story. There is still a lot of sex, and some of it is kinda funny (I chuckled a few times). More importantly this book had a plot and a beginning, middle, and end. I got my biggest wish from the first book - the author explained more about Christian Grey and how he came to embrace his freakish ways. Also, we got to meet Mrs. Robinson! I am shocked to say that I am looking forward to reading the finale in the trilogy.

Daunted by the singular tastes and dark secrets of the beautiful, tormented young entrepreneur Christian Grey, Anastasia Steele has broken off their relationship to start a new career with a Seattle publishing house. 
 
But desire for Christian still dominates her every waking thought, and when he proposes a new arrangement, Anastasia cannot resist. They rekindle their searing sensual affair, and Anastasia learns more about the harrowing past of her damaged, driven and demanding Fifty Shades.
 
While Christian wrestles with his inner demons, Anastasia must confront the anger and envy of the women who came before her, and make the most important decision of her life.

This book is intended for mature audiences.
