5.0 out of 5 stars Honk, honk!, July 26, 2009

By	C. Smith - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Yes, I love real men and this erotic anthology gave me some good men to love. It's really fun and that's what I liked most about it. Also, the erotica was HOT and steamy and that's just the way I like it. I'd highly recommend this one. Also liked, for romance, Now She's Gone.

4.0 out of 5 stars Erotic romance anthology not for the timid!, November 1, 2005

By	baltimore0502 "Hon!" (BALTIMORE, MD USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

I bought this book for Lora Leigh (a fave erotic romance author) and Susan Donovan (a fave contemporary romance author) and neither of then let me down. I enjoyed both of their stories. I had never read anything from Carrie Alexander but I enjoyed her story as well. I must say that I was a bit surprised at Ms Britton's story and found myself not enjoying it at all.

First up is Ms Alexander's story of Estrella and Jesse. Estrella has been lusting after a guy working on a road crew in the neighborhood where she works. She's a maid for a wealthy female executive and when her boss goes out of town on business, she borrows her car, her clothes and her apartment in order to lure the hot road crew guy into her bed. Jesse sees through her "car trouble" ploy immediately but decides to see where this whole farce will go. If she's a rich lady looking to play, why not play along? Well, what he finds is a woman full of contradictions and obviously, as he discovers, not what she seemed. I liked this story. Sure, the plot is contrived but what I really liked were Estrella and Jesse. It's rare to find blue collar leads in romances and here we have a Latina and an ex-con who are both trying hard to build better lives for themselves after past mistakes. I found it refreshing, enjoyable and, of course, steamy!

To be honest, I more skimmed than read Ms Britton's story of a woman who had been raped by her fiance who is looking to get her sexual footing back. She returns to her home town and to the guy whose heart she broke in high school. He's the only guy she trusts to help her recover her sexual self. Of course he is all too willing to comply. Yuck. I thought she was incredibly selfish and he put up with way too much. And I feel I must warn readers of her other books who may not expect it, she does push the envelope with a rather torrid girl-on-girl scene. Not for me.

Susan Donovan is one of my fave authors of contemporary romance and this is another of her fun, amusing and sexy stories. Win is a screenwriter who has hit a slump but still has a deadline to meet. Her agent sends her off to his cabin in the woods to get her inspiration back. Fully knowing that some of the appliances may not be in working order and that her neighbor Mac, a capable and hunky Navy SEAL on leave, is nearby to fix anything that goes wrong. Anything. Will he agree to be her muse? Sexy fun!

In Lora Leigh's story Raven has had it bad for Reno for years. They both know it just as she knows he's been crazy about her as well. He never acted on his feelings because she was too young at the time. He joined the Navy, traveled the world, waiting for her to mature. Now he's back, home on leave, and the waiting is over. He and Raven will finally act on the mutual attraction that sizzles between them. But when feelings intensify can Raven get over her fears about his being a SEAL? She saw what it did to her parent's marriage, can she deal any better than her mother? Intense, hot and emotional. Classic Lora Leigh.

4.0 out of 5 stars Steamy Read For Your Summer Reading List!, July 18, 2005

By	Kristi Ahlers (Illinois) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

This steamy anthology is a great addition for your summer reading list. All four stories are hot, spicy, and romantic and each delivers fun character driven stories.

"Naughty Girl" is the story of Estrella who is given a chance to be someone she isn't and pursues the one man that has been keeping her up late at night. Road construction worker Jesse Drummond. Does she have what it takes to be a "naughty girl?"

"Wanted:One Hot Blooded Man" is the story of one woman looking for a way to not be scared of intimacy. Bree goes to her best friend and old high school sweetheart. But the boy has become a man. Will he have what Bree is looking for, and will she allow herself to feel what he makes her feel?

"Have Mercy" is the story of a screenplay writer Winifried Mackland. She has too pen the hottest, sexiest conclusion to her movie series that she has even dreamt about. But first she has to find her muse. What she finds is a recovering SEAL. Oh, and he is a perfect example of her action adventure hero. Will this SEAL do double duty as a muse and find love at the same time?

"Reno's Chance" is the story of a SEAL that has finally finished waiting for the girl of his dreams to grow up and realize that what she wants is him. But how far will he have to go to prove that to her?

All four of these stories offer steamy toe curling love scenes, not for the faint of heart that's for sure. This was a fast-paced read and perfect for taking on the road, to the beach, or just kicking back for enjoyable afternoon of reading.
