Oh, I know you don't care for the Whips 'n' Chains stuff. When I first read NIC, the only porn I'd read was short form Star Trek stuff. I'd have to say NIC was pretty much what I expected - the bondage being the plus that prompted me to try and use it as a name for myself. Since I couldn't be bothered to finish it the second time around (after finally reading her others), it's safe to say I found it fairly dull (compared to the porn I'd moved on to :-p). I'd have to read it again to say why exactly, but that's probably not going to happen. I mean, there's J/W I've yet to read!
