Download or read book Searching for Wanda written by Elise Sutton and published by . This book was released on 2010-06-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her third book, notable FemDom author Elise Sutton strays away from the more common lifestyles of FemDom practitioners who pursue relationships based on the principals of loving female authority, and instead she takes an honest look at men who claim to be seeking "unloving female authority" at the hands of a sadistic woman. This book also takes notice of real life experiences of female sadists and the wives and significant others of masochists. Nevertheless, the primary focus of this book is the life of the man from whom the term "masochist" was coined. Many have heard of Leopold von Sacher-Masoch but few have heard his life story. With the narrative of Leopold's sexual journey as its foundation, this book examines contemporary self-described masochists who are in search of a cruel, sadistic woman. In other words, just like Leopold, these men are "Searching for Wanda".

Book excerpt: Leo Waterman was born and bred in Seattle, Washington, and his father had contacts that ranged from the highest offices to the lowest dives. Those contacts are useful in Leo's pursuit of a profession as a private investigator. Of course, as a not-completely-rehabilitated hippie, Leo does go about things his own way. His best legmen (and women) are folks he knows from the kinds of bars the tourist board doesn't acknowledge, and they live wherever they can - including the streets. It makes sense: They're virtually invisible. With all that going for him, it's no wonder that Waterman receives the kind of call he can't refuse from aging mobster Tim Flood. Tim's granddaughter, Caroline, is involved in something and she won't talk about it. Beautiful, willful, and her grandfather's kin, she's been able to get around anyone he's sent after her. So, Leo gets his marching orders: Bring Caroline home. Safe. Unfortunately, the crowd she's running with has its own agenda ... and Caroline really does want to do something about the environment....
