A Slice of Sin

This book contains a very eclectic group of short erotic tales.  I enjoyed many of the stories, but found that the diversity of stories made it difficult to read the book in one sitting.  A few of the stories were particularly entertaining.

The Stand In by Chase Morgan

I absolutely loved this short.  It’s gripping and intoxicates the mind.  The short proves that the power of words can be as equally sensually as the most perfect animalistic joining.  It’s great for those find the thought of a threesome alluring but don’t have the courage to seek one out.

Tonight is for You by Autmn Tooley

This is a great reminder that romance shouldn’t be forgotten, even in an erotic tale.  And, great writing can be found in erotica.  “It was like he saw into the very seat of my soul, finding my secrets and plucking them like juicy pieces of fruit from the tree of my darkest desires.”

The Great Canadian Beaver-Eating Contest by Leah Mueller

The title alone deserves recognition – every time I read it I can’t help but laugh.  And yes, the story is exactly about what you think – it’s all about women’s oral pleasure.  “All you had to do was show up and spread your legs.”

Intro to Religion at the Genial Work by Paul Henry

A brilliant mind can be both cruel and seductive.  When encased within a sexy dressed woman it can be a powerful turn on.

The Bakery Boy by Alegra Verde

Nothing like a hot delectable treat in a bakery, particularly one without the calorie guilt.  Also, I learned a ton of Spanish slang.

Etchings by Cherry Wild

Pace is a critical element of a story.  The author delivers it perfect art form.  It’s important not to rush things, even in a short erotic tale.  “The mix of slowness and anticipation and not-touching is heady and seductive.”

D.W. Marshall – Stolen Flame

Synopsis

Stolen Flame:

Vivian is excited about this weekend. Why wouldn’t she be? She is finally turning twenty-one, and she knows for-a-fact that Liam, the man of her dreams is in love with her too. On the eve of her birthday, her world comes crashing down when she is taken from her home.
Now, instead of spending her birthday in Liam-heaven, she learns that she will be forced to take part in The Chamber, a lavish sex club for the world’s richest and most powerful men. She finds early on that she will not suffer her sentence alone. With the budding sisterhood of the six other women taken at the same time, along with an unexpected ally, Vivian will discover an inner strength and love that she never knew existed.

Review

Wow!!  This story stunned me by altering my perception as the scenes progressed.  The plot is intense and dark and pushes the limit of what I normally can handle in a story.  This wasn’t by any sense of the imagination a typical erotic tale.  The majority of the story takes place where the kidnapped girls are held captive in a sex club and are forced to satisfy 5 men, 5 days a week.  While this is a chilling to imagine, the strength of the characters, particularly Vivian, compelled me to continue reading and I couldn’t book down the book.  The author amazingly weaves a bit of romance into an extraordinary situation.  As a reader I was clinging to the romantic elements as much as Vivian was desperate to hold onto her love.

** Spoiler Alert ** (It’s a romance novel – an HEA is expected)

After the girls are released – the book gets intriguing.  Vivian champions the concept of embracing the bad things in life and continuing on.

Ana Mederios – The Raven Room – Cover Reveal

unnamed

This book is intensely sexual and substantially intriguing.  There’s no denying that the book is delightfully erotic, but the fact that it engages the reader on an intellectual level as well makes it truly special.  I couldn’t stop thinking about the book after I finished it.

Julian is a character with a lot of layers and the authors peels them away in such a manner that it makes it very difficult to put the book down.  Julian is a child psychologist and his insight into sex from such a background is enlightening.

“If I showed you a video of a lion and a lioness mating, the chances of you getting wet are much higher than me getting a hard on.   Alas, one the many beautiful things about female sexuality.  I’m deeply envious.”

“You’re the one changing your own existence, Meredith.  I’m just the man who’ll make sure you get home safely.”

“We all fuck people for the strangest reason.  At least you’re aware of yours.”

Meredith starts out as the perfect lover – fun, passionate, and carefree.  Contrary to her selfish nature, later she proves to also be caring  and considerate without jealousy.  She’s also equally as perceptive as Julian.

“You’re ashamed of who you are.  The day you embrace yourself, you’ll be strong.  Until then you’re weak.”

The other characters lead to the mystery involved in the story.  I’m looking forward to reading the next in the series to see how it continues to play out.

As an added bonus, the story takes place in Chicago.  The author included a few notable landmarks but more importantly captured the essence of a Chicago winter.

This book will be published on November 3, 2015.

Lorelei James – Cowboy Casanova: Rough Riders, Book 12

d0359a962a83bf7d4862f8306b080bcb

This series drives me insane.  Each new book I read, I say it is my new favorite.  Those McKay men are hot, determined, wicked, fun, and loving all at the same time.  The female characters are all strong and independent.

You know they always say it’s the quiet ones.  Well, Bennet McKay may be the quiet one in his family, but he isn’t anything but dominant in the bedroom.  He’s a cowboy with talented roping skills and knows how to yield a whip for more things than just herding cattle.  What makes him great is ultimately his ability to compromise.  Being a good Dom requires prioritizing the needs of the sub.

Ainsley is smart, successful banker.  She holds a powerful position at the bank.  Learning the power of being a sub allows her to finally find happiness in a relationship.

Bennet and Ainsley’s playtime at a club blooms into an affair outside of the club scene.  BDSM is not just about playing out scenes but has place in everyday relationships as well.  Just like any marriage between adults, this can take on many variations.

I appreciated the character, Dalton, who is young and falsely misinterprets the entire BDSM scene.  His moment of enlightenment was a wonderful way of explaining the intimacy involved in a BDSM bond.

Anwen Stiles – Jasmine Plays Her Hand

Get a bunch of woman together to discuss erotic novels and what do you get?  The formation of the Fantasy Guild and a well-planned poker party with 5 men and one eager to please waitress.  Each man has a clearly defined persona.  I loved how Sir taught one of the younger members of the group some improved technique.  Geoff masterfully coordinates the activities.  All in all, the men are rough but respectful, leaving Jasmine in a euphoric sex-filled fog.

Quick, Hot, Erotic Read.

Shayla Black – His to Take

51H5mLVe89L._AA160_

What a potent combination: (1) running from a murdeous mad-man; (2) hiding in a BDSM club; and (3) sizzling chemistry between a ballet dancer and an elite military man.

Joaquin finds the Dom in himself.  His military background makes him a take-chargge kind of guy, but he has to learn to open his heart.  One of my favorite quotes of his,

“You’re like the drug that I can’t get enough of.  When I’m not inside you, all I can think about is fucking you.   When I am, I don’t think of anything but filling you completely and owning you.”

Bailey is innocent but strong at the same time.  Her emotional conflict brought a realism to the story.  She enjoyed being spanked for the first time but was too embarrassed to admit it.

Joaquin promises Bailey a sensational time.

“I love the sound of you begging baby girl.  Now I’m ready to hear you scream.”

Like the military man he is, Joaquin completes his mission and Bailey finally realizes the addictive nature of outstanding sex.
