This book should come with a disclaimer for public transit riders: Beware - You WILL miss your stop if you open the cover of this book! I can't count how many times I've had to scramble off of the bus when it reached my destination! DISCLAIMER: Beware of reading this collection of short story erotica in ANY public place as you will not always be able to control your facial expressions! DISCLAIMER: Once you pick it up, you will later find your fingers' imprints embedded into the cover. On the surface, this book can pass for any regular romance novel, but after reading a few pages of content, I felt compelled to use a book cover anyway. I was not impressed by every contributing author and some of the material can be disturbing to some. DISCLAIMER: Chocolate Flava is NOT for casual reading. It is NOT for children. Personally, I would advise against its exposure to teens as well. Chocolate Flava is for the MATURE adult. Enough said.

Chocolate Flava, edited by Zane, is a collection of 25 erotic short storied from authors such as Victor DeVanardo, Eileen M. M. Johnson, Jonathan Luckett and of course Zane. This is a his-and-her collection of steamy stories that will provide both men and women a little erotic fantasy.

The stories in this book were of adult themes with sexual explicit episodes that could be disturbing to some readers. If homosexuality bothers you, Chocolate Flava is not the book for you. There are heterosexual encounters and depictions of male/male and female/female homosexual encounters as well. In addition to the same sex issues, the stories contained twosomes, threesomes and all out-group sex. In some cases there were so many people having sex that if proved difficult to keep up with whom is having sex with whom.

One of my favorites is "Selena the Sexual Healer" by Victor DeVanardo. The main charter is Selena, who has mastered the art of sex through her sexual research of cathouses of Havana, Japanese geishas and phone sex magicians. Selena was hired to prevent William G. Gaddys an anti-porn crusader from addressing the Congressional Committee on Regulation of Adult Entertainment. Selena, the high priestess of sex succeeds and has William raising money as a stripper for the Society for Sexual Liberation and Freedom and the Home for Retired Exotic Dancers.

While the homosexual encounters were not to my liking, the reviewer enjoyed the book for what it was: a collection of sizzling, hot, and steamy, sexually explicit encounters, with no real story lines. So if you are looking for stories where the characters seek their pleasure at ultimate limits, this is the book for you. So be warned and read at your own risk.

Zane handpicked some very talented writers in this collection. This book is a great read. I could not put the book done. I can hardly wait until the remaining books in the series are released. You certainly will not be disappointed. This book will ultimately rank among the best of my personal collection.

In Chocolate Flava, Zane shows how others can write with the same flava and expertise that attracted most readers to her. Beginning with stories done by the ladies, next, the ones done by the men, and last but most definitely not least, are the sexastional tales done by Miss EroticaNoir! Chocolate Flava will give you a hard time choosing your favorite tale in each section. Maybe that was the plan though, to make every story your favorite story. Who knows? This is a fabulous read!

Can you say turn up the heat? This anthology ranges from the tamest erotica to the most explicit, featuring twenty-four authors who have challenged the African-American sexual revolution to the fullest. There is something for everyone, as the passages focus on many different sexualities and situations.

Using a no-holds barred, in-your-face style, this can definitely be classified as "nasty". Without a doubt, there leaves little to the imagination. These authors have put together a package that captures the essence of what the true definition of `getting busy' may actually be. Leaving plenty of room for questions, this anthology also provides some answers to things you may have always pondered, but never knew who to ask.

CHOCOLATE FLAVA is definitely on the freaky side, and is not for everyone; especially children. Also, if you're not into challenging your mind or crossing boundaries, this anthology is not for you. Some of the stories are subtle, and definitely more interesting than others, but for the most part - expect sex, sex and more sex. On the other hand, if you're one of those folks who love to live vicariously through others, this may be the book you've been waiting for.

This book had me hot as hell and I loved it! So did my husband. Everything in this book had me turning the pages like there was a prize at the end. I have told plenty of people about this book and they love it as well. Zane is doing her thang!

Platinum Reviewers Rating 3.5

Zane presents twenty-three of the most intriguing authors to presenting some of the most interesting stories ever. Chocolate Flava presents his and her break down of sexual explicit stories. While some stories were extremely well written others weren't at their best. I truly enjoyed What If? The Marry Widow, and a few others.

The Marry Widow was an extremely well written story the author made you imagine this wife who had to deal with her husband infidelities at his funeral but when his mistresses contact her she finds her self in the middle of a sexual orgy. Zane truly puts it all together when she ends with three of her own pieces.

I can't wait for more of Zane's novels and her anthologies she always gives the readers something to look forward to.

First off, I'm proud fan of the Black Erotica that's being written today. Haven't recently finished, Brown Sugar 3, I can hontestly say that this book is better. Zane has the uncanny ability to either write or tap into authors who know how to write, spicy, erotic, and hot stories. Once again, those should pay attention to see how it's REALLY done. I look forward to more books such as this one ...

This book is very sexual. They give every little detail. I mean everything. From the beginning to the nut i mean end. LOL There is a little of everything. Girl and girl action and everything. After reading on story you will need to make a booty call or whatever. This book gets you hot. I request reading it to a spouse or lover or just somebody you can get it on with afterward. This book is off the chain.

i had a hell of a time finishing this book. because when reading a good book of exoctica you know what it does to you. when you have a reaction like that then you know you got a winner of a book your hands. good work, zane. keep em comming. it's good for my libido! ;-)
