The only reason this book did not receive an F is the fact that the sex scenes are hot. If that’s all you want, and nothing else, then maybe you will want to plunk down your $12 for this 181 page book. (My math indicates that’s roughly $1 for every 15+ pages – about twice…
To be honest, I sometimes think I like the idea of erotica better than I do actual erotica. If it isn’t outright crude and emotionally vacant, much of the erotica I’ve read sometimes seems just . . . well, silly. I’m happy to report that two of the stories in this volume are that rare…
I am so embarrassed by the title of this book. I mentally rechristened it “Large Naked Penises on Parade,” and hoped the stories inside would be better.
Debates continually rage on our message boards about what makes a book great: Is it the plot, the characters, the unexpected twists? For a lot of us, it is the voice. Marianne Stillings wrote a little bit about this in her latest journal, and it seems to be what editors are searching for, as well….
Two stand-out stories are the highlight of an erotic anthology that, even at the steep price of $14.00 in trade paperback, is well worth the investment. While the entries by Susan Donovan and Nancy Warren stand head and shoulders above the rest, the four remaining stories – some more successfully than others – still, for…
Perhaps this is one party you might want to take a pass on. Invitations To Seduction is explicit but not particularly exciting, and two of the three stories included seem as if they were dashed off poolside in between the first and the second margarita. The premise for the three stories is that the characters…
If you like your romances hotter than hot, but want the emphasis firmly on romance rather than mindless feel-good coupling, you are going to love Wilde Thing. <!– var browName = navigator.appName; var SiteID = 1; var ZoneID = 4; var browDateTime = (new Date()).getTime(); if (browName=='Netscape') { document.write('‘); document.write(”); } if (browName!=’Netscape’) { document.write(‘‘);…
The four stories in this book are set in a variety of places and times, and while at least two of them meet with a degree of success, the remainder suffer from an overriding earnestness that just wound up seeming silly.
Bad Boys on Board is the third in a series of anthologies revolving around, you guessed it: bad boy heroes. Following behind I Love Bad Boys and I Brake for Bad Boys, this one brings together Lori Foster (featured in all three), Donna Kauffman (featured in ILBB) and Nancy Warren, a newcomer to these anthologies….
I am easily bored by politics. It doesn’t seem to matter if it’s present-day Congressional wrangling or the more direct and often brutal politics of other eras – at a certain point I just begin to lose interest. This, unfortunately, is exactly what happened when I read Lady Robyn, the second book in a…
