I enjoy some good erotic reads but too much of this book was a little beyond what I would discribe as erotic. Some of the girls fetishes were just gross - I guess people enjoy toilet acts but not me. The more erotic episodes were truly fine and worth the read but some I just had to skip over. So anytime I have to skip over too much unless it is historical cluttering up a good erotic romance - then a lower star rating for me. If you like extremes then you will be ok with this book.

There is a lot of hot sex. But the story line is rather boring. I will not read it again.

Most erotica doesn't have an actual storyline (i.e., that isn't contrived). This books reads well, it's an actual novel, it just has plenty of sex in it. Which is good. Most of it rings very true, and not like a silly fantasy. The writer is saying something here: about relationships between men and women, about loneliness, and about lust. The style is also spare and precise, kind of like Raymond Carver (in a way).

Would I recommend this book to my friends? Yes I would.

Sorry, but I don't see any real merit to this book. Like Hemmingson's other work, it's typical smut fare disguised to look like something better. If I wanted porn, I'd read the cheesy stories they publish in Hustler.

There are what I would call some pretty nasty parts in this book and it's for that reason that perhaps this book should come with a warning label that says 'Not to be bought by readers who find anal sex unappitizing' ........

Amazingly, even with a lot of back door type of activity (which went way over the top on a couple of occasions) I gave this book 5 stars because this author has managed to capture real life experiences of women, submitting to their bodies, and women, allowing a man to enter into that very very private world of real sexual desire, and not that missionary sex that everyone would be expecting from her.

Nicky Bayless, the hero of our story, has that non-judgemental style and personality that totally disarms the women he meets and allows them total freedom of real sexual and erotic expression with a more than willing partner ...

That very natural and real life manner and speech the author depicts in this book is stunning, and, for me the reader, certainly brought back memories of people and events long passed and stored away .... Thank you Micheal Hemmingson

A nice erotic story, it even has a plot to it.
The ending is somewhat strange, and that's why the 4 stars.

Note: Some of the anal sex scenes are a little bit "out there" so be advised.

and probably more personal of his novels, akin to his first novel, The Naughty Yard. This book isn't for everyone, but I'd recommend it over some of his others. Complicated, weird, and erotic.

One of the better erotica novels I've come across in a while.

This is a very good novel, despite its rather, uh, involved content. There's a senusous darkness to it, and a ring of truth as well.
