Taking Chances, by E. L. Van Hine and L.H. Nicoll

I am quite comfortable with Ennis' development in his sexuality and personal esteem; they go hand-in-hand. Honestly, this surprises me, because prior to this story I would have felt extremely uncomfortable with any mention of S/M behavior. Perhaps it's because I am so emotionally invested in Ennis' journey and because Louise's writing is so skillful that both men's love for each other is an inextricable part of their sex play.
Having said that, I'm sure there is a line that I would be uncomfortable crossing. That line has already moved, so I'm not sure where it is yet. Ennis and Ellery's relationship is one of mutual pleasure and love. So go for it, Louise. You haven't disappointed me yet.

So what is Ennis doing right now? ;D

Given that it is 1:25 pm on a Wednesday afternoon in Laramie, I would guess working. ;D

I can tell you where that line is for me: if Ellery were to say "Stop" or "No" and Ennis didn't. (This could also work in reverse.) However, I have no worries that this will happen. There has already been a time where Ellery has made that request, Ennis immediately complied, and Ellery was even a little surprised that it happened "on his say-so."
