TO BE CONTROLLED (BECAUSE YOU REALLY WANT IT),
By A Customer
This review is from: The Seven Year List (Black Lace) (Mass Market Paperback)
This is one of my favourite erotic novels. Exciting sex that does not disgust you (or at least me) ... The main character in the book, Julia, is planning to marry. The man she is marrying is not meeting her needs and she finds herself yearning for something more. She also feels stuck in a job that is not quite what she wanted in life. At this point, she gets an invitation to a high school reunion where she meets up with her high school boyfriend who always brought out the passions in her. From planning to marry, she finds her sexual appetites running away from her. Although claiming not to want to, she is "convinced" to have sex with a stranger on a train - when she says no she really means yes. She is a woman who enjoys being "forced" to do things she secretly craves. One scene involves her being stripped in the presence of three men and then being pleasured to differing degrees by them at the direction of Nick. The story follows her sexual awakening and her exploring the boundaries of her sexuality... There still manages to be story with all this sex going on. She is trying to determine what she wants. Does she want to marry; what about Nick from her past - he seems to know how to be able to fulfill all her sexual fantasies; what about Steve - a man from highschool who she had feelings for but which were never fully explored. In the end, who will she choose? Good explicit scenes and a story line.

From adolescent crushes to adultery...,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Seven Year List (Black Lace) (Mass Market Paperback)
Julia Sargent is a staff photographer on the 'Daily Chronicle' and about to marry handsome actor David Tindall. However, when she gets an invitation to a school reunion, she starts wondering if that's really what she wants.This is one of the better pieces of erotic fiction that I have read. The sex scenes are well written, and full of tension. The plot is solid, if a little drawn out, but has some high points. I also liked that there is a lot of variety - from tender lovemaking to anonymous sex with strangers - as Julia searches to rediscover herself, and find out what happened to her adolescent dreams, as captured on "The Seven Year List".

Erotica for for readers who expect little,

This review is from: The Seven Year List (Black Lace) (Mass Market Paperback)
Ok first of all the book was not first published as the listing says in 1941 but rather in 1998. probably first in the UK and then 2001 in the USA as a re-run This was the first of Zoe le Verdier books that I have read and I walked away disappointed. The preimse of the story was great in that a group of high school friends all made a list of their future goals and that they would meet in seven years to see how everyone did. It just so happens that our heroine Julia received the invitation for this show and tell shortly before her wedding to a man she only met weeks before the engagement. She decides to go to the reunion with her girlfriend and just consider it a last fling and sowing of 'wild oats'. The fling parts are really fine, but I didn't like the book because the characters all seems totally contrived shalow and dumb. I know I know why don't I just come out and say what I really feel ...... Maybe, if I were marooned on an island for 3 years and this was the only book then I might I guess have enjoyed it .... sorry
