Ann Jacobs is a sucker for lusty Alpha heroes and happy endings. Erotic romance, to her, is the perfect combination of sex, sensuality, deep emotional involvement and lifelong commitment--the elusive fantasy women often dream about but seldom achieve.
First published in 1996, Jacobs has sold nearly a hundred books and novellas. She is currently nominated for Romantic Times' 2012 Lifetime Achievement Award for excellence in erotic romance, as well as having had books nominated by RT reviewers for best erotic romance. Her books have earned awards including the Passionate Plume, the Desert Rose, and More Than Magic She has been a double finalist in separate categories of the EPPIES and From the Heart RWA Chapter's contest. Four of her books have been translated and sold in several European countries.
A CPA and former hospital financial manager, Jacobs now writes full-time, with the help of Mr. Blue, the family cat who sometimes likes to perch on the back of her desk chair and lend his sage advice. He sometimes even contributes a few random letters when he decides he wants to try out the keyboard. (Most of the time Blue just curls up, hides his eyes with his paws...and sleeps!)
She loves to hear from readers, and to put faces with names at signings and conventions.

Yuck, yuck, double yuck,

This review is from: Sandstorms (Black Gold) (Paperback)
I am all about the BDSM books. I am all about erotic romance. I'm all about role play, forced sex, whatever. I couldn't even finish the book. One minute the girl is RAPING a guy who has been ritually tortured and raped by men, and yet he saves her after the 2nd F and ends up falling in love with someone who he should hate and should hate him back. Didn't believe it for a second, not even a fiction/science fiction/science fantasy second. And it's not even science/fantasy fiction.
The first 2 stories aren't any better. Girl wants guy to play out fantasy role, guy does so and after they decide to spend the rest of their lives together. Next story?? SAME insipid flat characters, now years later, 2 kids and he doesn't spend enough time with her so she leaves him. Blah Blah Blah. Even with a hint that he might pull out some whips and chains couldn't get me to keep reading it. Honestly, even if the characters had been rounded out the sex scenes didn't even do it for me. I kept thinking - it'll get better. It didn't.

Temptation to be topical overwhelms good sense,

This review is from: Sandstorms (Black Gold) (Paperback)
This author has seldom been afraid to push limits when writing about sensual topics. However, in this set of 2 1/2 novellas, a lot of time is spent wishing for large limits from anywhere--common sense, patriotism, guilt--to set aside oddities like these stories. Dealing with Iraq, Kuwait, and a kind of fantasy-shiek element might have been ok. But when prisoner death, torture, unpleasant forced sensuality, etc. are combined into what is essentially presented as a romance--it just doesn't work. Risk is part of the creative process--this novel is waaaay too risky for me.
