Review:

When sex meets love, there should be some hot sexy scenes which appeals to both the mental and emotional parts to a reader. One would expect to feel really good between the warm fuzzy love and the arousing sexual scenes. In this book, BEST EROTIC ROMANCE 2013, it falls a bit short. Each of the short stories is well written. There are no grammar issues. They are smoothly edited by Ms. Wright which is expected. What is unexpected is the lack of heat and arousal.

There are a couple of stories in this book which deal with infidelity which doesn’t exactly arouse. While one woman did end up leaving her apathetic husband for a more exciting and passionate man, it was rather sad. Several of the stories leave the reader wondering where the love existed. There were a few cute ones such as the white knight rescuing a damsel in distress from a bathroom in Vegas or a Yoga partner assisting a new lover to reach unchartered heights. Still, the overall book did not illicit heated desires with passionate flames of love. This is surprising as previous Ms. Wright collections have been delicious filled with smexy hot stories. This collection of stories recommended for the romance reader who enjoys contemporary settings with reality endings.

Review:

This book is about military erotic romances by eighteen authors and a forward by Cat Johnson. The stories range from World War II, contemporary, futuristic, heterosexual and LGBT scenarios. While I enjoyed reading them, I wanted a few to be longer as I wanted more about both the storyline and the characters.

Some of the stories were very steamy but some were also the very sweet romantic ones. A few were definitely BDSM. I was really surprised by the variety of stories in the book. I will say that there were quite a few that knew about the military and some of the rules and regulations. I appreciate when an author does as I served in the Marine Corps and this happens to be one of my pet peeves when an author does not get it right so I tend to get very critical when that happens. One story bordered on this as it revolved around two enemy soldiers. I’m not sure this would have been feasible during that time period, but the story itself was interesting.

Some of my favorite vignettes in this book included “Night Witch”, “Wilco” and “Snake Dance”. These were also among those I wanted more information. All in all, each author did a good job with a sometimes difficult subject.

Review:

Do you fondly remember fairy tales read to you before bedtime? Even if you don’t, these lustfully delightful reinterpretation of fairy tales are a delicious read before “bed” time. After a few of the stories, it’s time to get busy with your lover.

In Lustfully Ever After, the popular fairy tales of Red Riding Hood, Snow White, Twelve dancing princesses, Pinocchio and more are tastefully twisted into maledom, femdom and even transgender sexiness. It is hard to pick just one I enjoyed most. Each story stroked my desire just a bit hotter. I enjoyed every lick, stroke and especially the bondage. There is flavour for everyone to enjoy. Red Riding Hood started it of with a hot F/f/m ménage. Little Red Riding hood is not so little. Her grandmother is not so helpless either. I wish there was a bit of shifter sex in it with the wolf. Alas we are teased with stories of debauchery about the big bad wolf. It seems he is in high demand in every woman’s bed.

One that surprised me was the story of Pinocchio. This was a nice reinterpretation of becoming a real boy. It began a bit slow with a very angry and ungrateful child who disrespects poor adopted father Giuseppe. Pinocchio did go wild, in the heated nights of Miami. I like the blue fairy. Where do I find one of her? The ending was fast and sweet.
