Tremors is my favorite Jaid Black book!,
By
This review is from: Tremors (MiniDisc)
I have read all of Jaid Black's books and they are all great but if I had to pick just one, this one would be it. Tremors was a well told love story with enough steamy sex to fog up your contact lens!There are only 76 pages but boy can she pack in some great intimate scenes in just these few pages. There are no fillers or pages and pages of boring scenery or descriptions of what clothes they are wearing. In fact, the hero won't let the heroine wear any clothing for the duration that she's with him. And that's not the ONLY thing he's demanding about either. Sigh, after reading this book, I was so envious of Marie and all that Fredrik did to Marie in the bath, on the table, over the...well, you get my drift. After I read this book, my boyfriend had no idea what had come over me or why I was suggesting we eat some strawberries and bananas or why I was walking around talking about recreating certain pages of Tremors. But boy oh boy, YOU'LL know why after you read this well written e-book. There are numerous memorable scorcher scenes like that all through out this book. What I loved most of all was that each scene is unique and different.... I've read erotica before but Tremors truly is Romantica - a mix of romance and erotica. My biggest complaint about erotica was that they are not well written. They leave me cold and slapping dirty words on pages does nothing for me. As an avid reader of alot of fiction and non-fiction books and periodicals, I think Ms. Black is a great writer, period. That she happens to write steamy romance is just my good luck and proof that my complaints about erotica are finally being answered. Tremors has romance and warmth whereas erotica does not. They both have heat but I actually cared about Fredrik and Marie and what happened to them. When they got hot, so did I. When Fredrik's heart was in pain, I felt it too. I wanted them to live happily ever after. I really enjoyed this book. Tremors is a well-written love story that just happens to have enough libido maxing graphic sex to teach Masters & Johnson a few things! Sigh, wish Fredrik was real so he could come teach me. Ja baby!

Very good short story,
By
This review is from: Tremors (MiniDisc)
Tremors is more like a short story than a full novel but even though its only 76 pages its still a complete story. The heorine, Marie has come to Europe trying to bascially find herself. She encounters Fredrik, the most dangergous,facinating man she's every met. His past is dark and there are horrid rumors about him. She is warned to stay away from him but soon finds that she can't. He wants her and is determined to make her his so he basically traps her.When I first read this story I only gave it a 2. I didn't really like the fact that he was so demanding of her. I reread it and have changed my mind. I can now see the pain that Fredirk was in and how desperately he wanted someone to love him as much as he loved her.The love scenes are pretty graphic but not in the disgusting way. They show true passion. Although if you are embarassed but such graphic scenes this book may not be for you.

One of Jaid Blacks best,
By A Customer
This review is from: Tremors (MiniDisc)
I have read all of Jaid Blacks novel and they are all good. Her stories are well written minus the purple prose that we see in some erotic novels. Tremors is very steamy and very graphic and may not be for everyone but if you love Robin Schone, Thea Devine and Susan Johnson, I guarantee that you're going to enjoy all of JB's novels.

Don't hesitate to buy this!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Tremors (MiniDisc)
This is an outstanding read! Well worth the money and the wait. Jaid Black is an amazing author. Why she hasn't been published in print is beyond me. Although it would be easy to say she's in the same category as Robin Schone, Thea Devine and Susan Johnson, I think her stories are even better. Within the first few pages you feel like you KNOW these characters. They become part of you, and you actually feel that these people are alive.So, jump on the Jaid Black bandwagon before it leaves the station. Because on this train, the sky is the limit.

Marie and fredrik wow. Fredrik was soooooooooooooo mysterious and somewhat dark and sexy you were eager to find out more after ever turn of the page. Marie went on vacation in Europe she was driving back to her hotel her tired went out she started walking got lost and the mysterious Fredrik was following her the whole time because he wanted her and it gets good from there on in. PS: very short story maybe affordable on Ellora's Cave

Overpriced short story,
By January (Springfield, MA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tremors (Kindle Edition)
$7.12 for a short story that took less than an hour to read, not worth the price as this was nothing special. If I had been told it was a short story and paid $2, I would have rated it higher.
The book had potential with all the right ingredients, but it was a rushed effort to grab our $. This should have been a short story in a book with other stories of a similar nature, then perhaps it might have been worth the price. Don't waste your money. Again it is starting to look like Ellora's Cave is pushing to grab our $ without a care for providing a quality read that their loyal customers expect.

Tremors,
By Etienne D' "ihatemondays" (WA, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tremors (Kindle Edition)
This story, excuse me, was just plain dumb. It really doesn't deserve my energy reviewing it, but just wanted others to know not to waste their time (or money) on this short story -for that is all it is - a short story with no merit - at a full book price.
