Best Women’s Erotica 2008 delivers risky, romantic, heart-pounding thrills. Joyful, daring, and authentic, these 21 steamy stories revel in erotic adventure, from the sparks between strangers to the knowing caresses of long-time lovers. In “Penalty Fare,” a Londoner rides train after train without a valid ticket, until, on an early morning journey to Bristol she finds the conductor who knows just how to punish her for trying to skip the fare. In “Winter Heat,” a woman finds that each year, the winter’s first snowfall reminds her of a cold night when she was 18 and the stranger who taught her that “passion can be found and shared in the most unusual of places.” And in “You Can Do Mine,” Céline finally gets to try out her purple dildo and leather harness with her new lover Leo, the first man to give the right answer when she tells him “you can do mine if I can do yours.”

My Fave,
This review is from: Best Women's Erotica 2008 (Paperback)
Of all the 'Best Womens' series, this is my favorite. The Best Womens Erotica 2009 (EasyRead Comfort Edition) is good, in fact every book in the series is excellent, but this one still remains my most loved. I have to admit that I haven't read them in chronological order but who cares. My husband bought this one for me because he liked the picture on the cover and its one of the few he has read all the way through. He calls it his sex manual and he likes living out the stories in the book, which is ok by me as we have had some sizzling sessions. Also enjoyed Breaking the Girl by Kim Curum and also Elizabeth Chamberlain's Absolute Erotica: The Definitive Collection which is the other book he has read all the way through. And again bought because of the girl on the cover having an orgasm.

Some like it HOT off the press AND HOW!,
This review is from: Best Women's Erotica 2008 (Paperback)
Update (January 20, 2008): One of the stories in the book, "The Lonely Onanista," was just shortlisted for the prestigious 2007 "Rauxa Prize for Erotic Writing." If I didn't already own "Best Women's Erotica 2008" that might be incentive enough to purchase it!
Original review: To answer the reviewer before me, the other reviews here (and the "search inside" offerings) all refer to last year's edition of this series: "Best Women's Erotica 2007." The recent release is called "Best Women's Erotica 2008." I received my copy from Amazon yesterday and am THOROUGHLY enjoying it! (This page needs to be updated is all).

Judge for yourself,
By B.A. Wall "reads a lot" (San Francisco) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Best Women's Erotica 2008 (Paperback)
I'm not sure where these other 10 reviews listed below have come from considering this book just hit the market this week (11/1/2007) and the publisher did not do any freebie give aways on this beforehand (I called and asked), so I ask what book are they talking about because it isn't this one. (Especially those reviews from early this year?) All I can say is judge the book for yourself. The cover is great and sexy and the writers here have done other stories in other collections I have liked. Like most things tastes in erotica are subjective so keep an open mind and give it a whirl, you might just have a good time.
