This review is from: Summer Liaison (Paperback)

I recently purchased Summer Liaison by Basem Darwish after a friend's recommendation. Prior to that, I hadn't heard about the novel, and I decided to buy it as my friend kept raving and raving about it and about how excellent it is. Now, I am a big fan of erotic romance novels, and I will read just about anything titled an erotic romance, but I truly was swept away by Basem Darwish's novel!

Summer Liaison was an intense, passionate, erotic, and orgasmic story of emotional lust, steamy sexual encounters, and dramatic intimate confrontations with no regard to the social standards of "what is normal" when it comes to sex and relationships! The story is bold and is not afraid to break the boundaries and be outrageous, shocking, and very explicitly detailed.

Moreover, Mr. Darwish has been able to create a story that is not only unbelievably erotic and flaming red hot, but that is written in a way that involves the reader in the actually story. The descriptions are set so that the reader is not given a fully complete overview of each situation, but has enough details to formulate his or her own opinion about the scene! When reading it, the scenes are very easy to picture in your mind clearly and it is as if you are standing off to the side witnessing the scenes unfold before your eyes as opposed to simply reading a story. In addition, the attitudes and personalities of the characters are formulated in a way that allows the readers to associate with each character and develop a preference of one character or the other.

Also, the story is an extremely interesting and intriguing read, and will have you hooked from Page 1! When I tell you that you won't be able to put down the book once you start it, do not take my warning lightly! It is simply amazing and you will not be able to wait to finish it later! If you put it down, you will sit there dying to find out what happens next, and you'll break down and pick it up, no matter what else you have to get done!!! A mind-blowing page turner!! I believe this is Basem Darwish's first novel, and from checking on his website, www.basemdarwish.com, the sequels for Summer Liaison are coming out soon!! I simply can't wait!!! BUY BUY BUY!!!
