Welcome to Maple Court and all its delicious temptations as small town art professor Taylor Barwick is about to discover. . .

Taylor Barwick's job has become too predictable and her sex life? Zilch. Hoping to spice things up, Tay jumps at the chance to house-sit her best friend's mansion for six months on a leafy cul-de-sac just outside Manhattan. Once Tay moves to Maple Court, she makes fast friends with Pam, a wealthy widow who lets her in on a dirty little secret: Beneath its affluent exterior, Maple Court is a hotbed of sex and seduction. . .

When Tay meets Justin Karallis, she's immediately attracted to the handsome, sophisticated photographer and they become lovers. But soon Justin's lovemaking isn't enough to satisfy Tay and she finds out about Club Fantasy, where she can act out her most intimate fantasies. After that, there's no turning back. . .

This review is from: Tempting Taylor (Paperback)

An excited Melissa Bonner tells her friend Taylor Barwick that Dave finally agreed to take her along on a photo shoot for six months. The euphoric Lissa asks Taylor to house sit her Maple Court mansion in Westchester County. Taylor agrees as her life as an art professor has recently lacked color.

Tay meets Pam the widow neighbor who explains that Maple Court caters to all sorts of sexual activity that just thinking about her fantasies heats the newcomer's blood. She soon meets and falls in mutual lust with photographer Justin Karallis; they become lovers. However it is the Club Fantasy that has Tay excited as she joins as one of Pam's high class dream makers that in nearby Manhattan would be called high price prostitutes.

Ironically considering that Tay becomes a hooker, there is much less erotica in this story line than the usual Aphrodisia contains. The plot is not very deep as several fetishes amidst the wealthy in the burbs are never fully explored and for that matter neither are the limited heterosexual encounters. Still fans will like Tay as she goes from total ennui to a woman of pleasure.
