Lacey Alexander delivers another smoking hot story in. What She Needs.

Jenna Banks doesn't think she has a problem with her sex life. She is happy with the way things are even though it has been awhile between partners. Her friends shock and surprise her with a vacation to Hotel Erotique. Jenna at first is leery of going but decides to at least give it a try. A last minute glitch has her handler being changed from a woman to a man. This man causes Jenna pulses to race and long dormant body parts to tingle.

Brent Powers has always enjoyed his work at the resort. He takes pride in helping others to embrace their sexual side. Brent thought he had his life all figured out that is until he met Jenna Banks. Jenna has a hidden sensuality that intrigues him. Brent starts a slow and steady seduction that no normal woman can resist.

Jenna is very reluctant to take part in all the resort has to offer. But Brent's teaching has her reaching for things she never thought she wanted.

What She Needs by Lacey Alexander is exactly what erotic writing should be. Its all out sexy and pushes the boundaries. Jenna and Brent have real issues and real feelings that add another layer to this fascinating book.

...as my other half enjoys them, so I stole it from her and had a quick read. I guess this is a Venus and Mars thing, my beloved thinks these books are the cat's whiskers and she certainly enjoys them. For myself, as a male reader, I found it impossible to suspend my rational side and enter into the fantasy. The whole plot just seemed way too implausible and to be frank, as a male reader the whole *ahem* copulation thing just wasn't that "stimulating." And the lead male character struck me as a prize prat! Like I said, Venus and Mars.

Based on my other half's reaction, I would happily recommend this book to female readers who want a good read of a book in this line, althought the whole plot is rather thin and many of the "scenes" are rather contrived. For male readers - just give it a miss, you'll be bored to tears half way thru (or earlier).

And if anyone asks why I gave it 4 stars, it's because it's my beloved's book, she purchased it and she rates it highly and I'm certainly not going to argue with her :) over the rating.

"Prepare to be swept away on an erotic journey of sexual awakening! Suspend what you know about the male stamina and you'll be entertained by the various sexual situations Jenna experiences. Her journey is made believable by the relationship that develops between her and Brent. The imagery and attention to detail will thrust you right into the sensual fantasies and erotic adventures. Jenna is smart and confident in herself, but Brent makes her realize how much her past has hindered her sexuality. I loved the emotional roller coaster Jenna experienced and how she stayed true to her personality throughout the book while opening her mind to what Brent shared with her. I can honestly say this book grabbed my attention from the first chapter and kept me captivated until the final page. This author does a great job writing sex scenes where the reader actually feels the emotion between the characters, even when the emotion shouldn't be there. What She Needs is very sensual, erotic and will open your mind to infinite possibilities!" - Lisa Freeman

Jenna Banks was having second and third thoughts when she found herself at Hotel Erotique. She was there because her best friends had duped her into accepting the contest prize they had entered her in. Sun and relaxation was just what she needed; nothing else. Jenna just hoped the contest backers weren't too upset with her decision.

When she met Brent Powers, she felt the electricity between them immediately. He was part owner of the resort and her designated guide at the Hotel Erotique. Jen had planned on turning down the activities at the hotel, but after meeting Brent, she changed her mind. He had her wanting anything and everything he to offer her.

This was a contrived flimsy plot, and should have been short stories about sexual fantasies because the writing was too weak for a book. There are several mechanical sexual encounters between Jen and Brent, and well as several group scenes. It isn't disclosed in the description, but there are f/f interludes as well as m/m. The story is lacking in almost every way, and no emotional content to speak of either. Don't waste your time.
