Product Description

Best Women’s Erotica 2009 is erotica by women, for women — contemporary, realistic, and explicit. Editor and best-selling author Violet Blue knows what women are looking for in an erotic anthology, and she delivers it here, with an amorous abundance of risky, romantic, heart-pounding thrills. Joyful, daring, and authentic, these steamy stories revel in erotic adventure, from the sparks between strangers to the knowing caresses of long-time lovers. Filled with strong characters and clever narratives that show how sexual experience is different for every woman, this seductive anthology is a glorious celebration of the finest and friskiest female erotic fiction today.

5.0 out of 5 stars Oh yessss. Very satisfying, March 14, 2009

By	Fiona Rix - See all my reviews

I found this a most pleasurable book to read, indeed as are all of Violet Blue's books. A collection of well balanced and varied erotica with something that will appeal to everyone. In particular I liked `Fly', a fairy tale which I think everyone will recognise, with a very erotic flavour which put me in mind of Ms. Madore. What I liked most about this story is how Wendy is depicted, as a demure but very alluring innocent, and I must admit she reminded me of someone who was very dear to me many years ago.

`Live Bed Show', is another story of note that has a genuine warmth about it that made me think that this story is possibly autobiographical. A very English girl in the very beautiful city of Amsterdam getting a dream job of demonstrating luxury beds in a shop window. Very erotic, with an old fashioned happy ending.

A great book, as are all the `Best Women's Erotica' series and long may they continue. One of my notable favourites wasBest Women's Erotica 2007.Two other books of note are Rachel Kramer Bussel's Dirty Girls: Erotica for Womenand Suzie Van Aartman's 100 Percent Erotica well worth adding to your collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good collection., July 2, 2009

By	Crystal Mullen - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've been reading these collections for quite some time now, and was glad to receive and read the 2009 version. It's quite good, with some of the best stories I've read. I was glad to see new names added to the list just to mix it up a little. I also liked that the stories didn't meander around and really lived up to the hype. A good collection if you like erotic anthologies, such as Sex Scenes: Erotica Excerpts from the Novels of Kim Corum, which is also good, too.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lives up to the Hype!, February 4, 2009

By	Addie Kimball Wallace (Somewhere in Ohio) - See all my reviews

I like erotica that lives up to the hype.
So I found this new collection from Cleis
Press to be a godsend.

So glad to finally feel as though I haven't
WASTED MY MONEY.

Something else I liked but more raunchy was
a Kindle book I found called "Story of a Jealous
Birthday Girl".

I know, I know its by Jackie Christian the soap
opera writer but GOD! I really liked how she
made me laugh, got me "all wet" and gave me
some very unexpected plot twists all in the
confines of a very nasty little short story.
I read her hip hop erotica story "N.Y. BodyGuard"
after (whole other world from mine, but GOD! It
was so darn good).

That one and "Story of a Jealous Birthday Girl"
and now I'm a confirmed JC fan.

Like I said, I like erotic books that live up
to the hype and keep me glued to the page. Its
getting tougher and tougher to find those kinds
of e-books for my kindle.

Thank you Cleis Press for this new collection
and people who want their erotica 'edgier' make
sure you check out Jackie Christian's "Story of
a Jealous Birthday Girl". If your really brave
read "NY Bodyguard"!
