As the girth strap was finally unbuckled, Corinna realised the horizontal bar was almost certainly too short to spread her arms wide and that the cuffs, when closed, looked surely to be too large to prevent her hands slipping through them. It was then that she understood their true purpose, but it was not these that held her main attention, for there had been one other modification made to the saddle, and the oiled black dildo that rose from its centre seemed to be beckoning her like a sinister signpost. From both sides hung two more straps, thicker and longer than the upper pair, and she knew that once mounted on this seat, she would not be dismounting without assistance.
‘Leave her boots and the mittens on,’ Fulgrim instructed, as the bridle was lifted from Corinna’s head. ‘They make such a pleasant contrast to so much soft flesh, and I’m sure the people of Garassotta will find their lady warden so much more appealing dressed a little, rather than completely naked.’ He chuckled and turned to Corinna.
‘Have you ever ridden before, my dear?’ he asked, his voice purring with satisfaction at the expression of horror that froze on her face...
Once again a helpless prisoner of the sadistic Lord Fulgrim, Lady Corinna finds herself a naked pawn in his deadly plan to wrest control of Illeum from her father.
Fulgrim's hatred for her is such that, regardless of her rank, she is slowly and cruelly being forced into submission as one of the human pony girls so popular among the wealthy merchants and nobles of the eastern lands, and even if her father should eventually yield to Fulgrim's demands, her fate already seems sealed.
Only her beloved steward-master-lover, Lord Savatch, still recovering from a near fatal wound, fully realises the danger she is in and he, together with his former lover, the Yslandic warrior princess Alanna and her deadly young female cohort Jekka, must try to reach Corinna before Fulgrim's power becomes all encompassing.

SF Master from New York
The trouble with any multi-volume genre series like this one from Chimera Books, is whether a writer is skilled enough to keep the story exciting enough to make the reader return for more. Luckily, Jennifer Jane Pope (writing as Faith Eden) has created a series that seems to avoid this problem.
Lady Corrina has discovered that she finds sexual servitude to Lord Savatch preferable to her privileged life, in the first volume 'Innocent Corrina' (which this reviewer hasn't read). While on an outing with Savatch, they are attacked by two assassins. Savatch is left for dead, and Corrina is taken by a slaver ('The Bridle Path') who doesn't know her identity. The villain in the story is Lord Fulgrim, who is determined to take over the world with his brand of savagery, who has enslaved Lady Dorothea (his jailer) and Corrina, who he believes to be a look-a-like double.
Bridled Lust, like so many other (pre-industrial) fantasy stories is the story of Lord Savatch's pursuit of Fulgrim's army. In this story you'll find Amazon Warriors, slavers, Pony Girls, and sex slaves. This is a very nice, very well written story that moves along without boring the reader at all. I can easily recommend buying this book, even if you haven't read the previous two. I certainly hope that Jennifer Jane Pope has a truly dramatic finish to this series - and that Fulgrim meets his just end!
