Earth was hit by an asteroid, and nothing’s been the same. For Natasha MacKenzie things got a whole lot worse after her husband, Joel, died on a mission to try to salvage valuable resources. Since then she immersed herself in work, thinking her husband would be proud of her doing something that would also insure the future of civilization.

However, Joel’s best friend gives her a letter written by Joel that he’d decided to keep until he felt she was up to reading it.
Erectile dysfunction or cheap cialis ED has become the most accepted drug to be used in case of such occurrence.

Aging decreases the interest tadalafil cialis from india in making love.
In it Joel reminds her of his love for her, and has included a gift disk to a virtual reality company called Private Pleasures. They’d often joked about being rich enough to use their services, and now Joel’s insurance money enables her to do just that. He wants her to live out her wildest sexual fantasy, and at the end of the journey, there’s a special surprise awaiting her.

Nearly everyone has fantasies that they’ve never confessed to anyone else. Natasha is lucky enough to get a chance to fulfill all of hers.

The setting caught my attention immediately. Enough details were provided about the society that the main character lived in that I understood why Natasha was intrigued by things that I find completely commonplace. What really kept me guessing, though, were all of the questions that the plot explored without answering. There’s something to be said for leaving certain details up the audience’s imagination. In this case, it worked pretty well.

I would have liked to see much more time spent on the sex scenes in this tale. Natasha was rushed through the different scenarios incredibly quickly. Based on how much time was spent explaining why and how this character was introduced to Private Pleasure, I expected her experiences there to be explained in just as much detail. It was disappointing to see that they were not.

The ending worked really well with everything else that was going on in the plot. I figured out what was coming ahead of time, but it was still fun to have my prediction validated. There seems like there could be room for a sequel here if Ms. Devereaux decides to write one. While I don’t know if this is something she is planning to do, I’d be curious to read it if she does!

Private Pleasures is a good choice for anyone who likes science fiction with a sexual twist.

Struck with grief and disbelief, Kathleen Divinnicci heads to fulfill her Uncle Paul’s dying wish. She finds herself finding more than dying wishes in Blue Mountain, though. Determined to keep her word to him, she is now faced with Sean McCarty, who is the town’s sexy sheriff and Uncle Paul’s right-hand man. Will she stick to the task at hand and then head home to the city, or will Sean’s sparkling smile leave her staking claim in Blue Mountain?

The weakness of nerves is mainly responsible for this levitra without prescription http://new.castillodeprincesas.com/directorio/seccion/transportacion/ men sexual disorder.

She’d never been to the country, and the small town of Blue Mountain is completely out of her comfort zone. But Uncle Paul had been as good as a father to her, and Kathleen couldn’t deny his final request to come out into the small town and listen to his last will and testament. But Kathleen is shattered to discover she never knew her Uncle at all, really, and the secrets he reveals alter the course of her life.

To be honest I was expecting a fairly standard “city girl goes into the country to fulfil family will” style story and in many respects this is exactly that. I found many of the familiar boxes ticked. Kathleen is a successful business woman with money (driving a Mercedes into town) and has sold up her life and home to come into the country as her Uncle requested. Also there was the familiar plot-hook of the sexy farm hand (who also here happens to be Sheriff Sean McCarty) who helps her out and turns into the hero of the story. What I haven’t come across before and found quite a strange twist was the close-mindedness and in some instances even outright racism and bigotry of the local townspeople.

I thought it a little odd that Kathleen was the first ever minority woman to have appeared in the town. I found that not only a little beyond belief, but also in another respect quite brave. Throughout the whole story I fluctuated between these two emotions. I was quite disappointed that in this day and age, a large percentage of a group of small town people could be so judgmental about something like the colour of a woman’s skin. I also struggled to accept that no other minority person had ever in the history of the town even passed through. These two things frequently jarred me from the enjoyment of the story.

The chemistry between Kathleen and Sean sizzles immediately and soon explodes between them. They both have secrets and both are strong, stubborn people, so their romance together is proverbially rocky. That doesn’t lessen the intensity of their need for each other and their sex is smoking hot. I found the sex–while hot and good–was quite aggressive, with both Kathleen and Sean being dominant and the aggressor at times. This might not sit well with all readers as I found at times they both could push the envelope sexually.

Readers looking for a hot story filled with sex and romance should find this as enjoyable as I did. While some of the other secondary characters aren’t the usual “supporting cast” I still found enjoyment from that small-country-town feel of story that is hard not to like. A fun, steamy short story with a real twist of surprise at the end.

Emma knows he probably would not want and could not love a woman who makes her living pleasuring other men, but she is willing to do anything to have him as her own.

Emma Snow is about to have a most unusual day. A paid escort to high ranking men, she has a very different life to many, but as a woman alone in the world, she needs to support herself somehow. Blindfolded with one of her clients, she has the sensation that something is different this time, but is blissfully unaware of what, exactly, until she’s readying to leave and finds a macabre sight in his study. Sir Michael had been murdered. Emma’s day is turned upside down, and the man of her dreams – a Police Detective of all things – suddenly enters her life.

This is an interesting and well-written Historical novel. I enjoyed Emma’s frankness about her work and sexual relations. There was no air of “missishness” – which I personally dislike – but also she wasn’t blunt to the point of crudeness. I feel the author has done an excellent job of balancing Emma’s character so she is relatable but still exceedingly sexual for that time period. I was a little disappointed how difficult I found it initially to relate to the hero, Detective Mark Hargreeves, but this was mostly due to the story being from Emma’s point of view, and written in the first person. Seeing everything from Emma’s perspective was interesting, but it did make me wonder at Mark’s thoughts and reactions, how things appeared from his eyes. I felt this became particularly difficult a few times in the story when Mark would seem to change his mind on something – do a complete about-face – and I’d not really feel like I had a proper understanding on why. This also made it harder for me to feel connected to Mark, and I think that was a great shame.

This book is a little bit different from many other erotic romances that I’ve read previously, in that even though Emma’s attraction to Mark is clear from the beginning, their relationship is quite platonic for the first half of the book. Emma continues to see her clients and while I enjoyed this and the progression of the story, die-hard romantics might not be happy to see Emma sexually active with numerous men while being distracted and entranced with Mark. This isn’t a standard hero-and-heroine-fall-in-love and are monogamous style of story and I can understand if some readers don’t appreciate that. I personally didn’t mind Emma’s sexual exploits with her clients – indeed I feel it gave me greater insight into Emma’s character. I felt there were a few small inconsistencies in the plot, particularly surrounding Mark and his past, but overall this was a small niggle and not enough to dampen my enjoyment of the story.

This is a fresh and very different style of historical romance book. Brimming with tons of sex and a very independent heroine Emma’s lifestyle is enough to make me blush at times, but I greatly enjoyed reading of her escapades. There is a wonderful, happy ending that made the romantic in me very satisfied. An interesting, fresh kind of historical erotic novel.

Rumpelstiltskin as you’ve never know. The untold version through the eyes of a troubadour.

Come, dear readers, and let this traveling troubadour reward you with the tale of a lovely miller’s daughter, who had been misled by the exaggerated boasting of her father, and her misadventures at the hands of her king. You may think you know the story, but let me assure you, you know merely a fraction of the tale. Listen as I tell you how the clever lass got the best of king and troll alike.

It’s about time that someone set the record straight. Half of the rumors flying around about Rumpelstiltskin are baldfaced lies!

One of the most enjoyable things about this tale was its character development. The original version didn’t go into very much detail about why the main characters made certain choices, so it was fun to see what could have prompted those decisions. I was especially intrigued by what Mr. Winchester did with the king who orders the miller’s daughter to spin straw into gold.

This story regularly switched between first and third person narration. I would have preferred for the plot to stick with only one of those points of view. At times it was a little jarring to make the transition between them because they were written in two very different manners. If I could only pick one of them, I’d go with the first person narration because the speaker in it had such a dry wit. It would have worked well as a frame for every single scene.

The miller’s daughter was by far my favourite character. She quickly learned how to look after herself even when the odds were clearly stacked against her. I admired her resourcefulness even thought some of her methods were a little cringe-worthy. Seeing how she changed from one scene to the next made me smile. While I don’t know if the author plans to write a sequel, I’d be curious to hear more from her again soon.

I’d recommend The Untold Story of Rumpelstiltskin to anyone who loves retellings of classic fairy tales.

It nourishes your brain and order generic viagra amerikabulteni.com boosts efficiency. It should also be confirmed that they are properly tadalafil online uk experienced and it is also essential that the patient draws the attention of the practitioner if at any time of life, and can be very frustrating to deal with.

This product basically comes up with the component that is very well known for treating male cialis prescription cheap erectile dysfunction. As a half-elf, Krystal is now an adult and can make her own choices. Her first calling comes, and she must leave her home to start a journey she hopes will have her following in her father’s footsteps. With her best friend at her side, Krystal rides away from their childhood home to an unknown destination that could shape her destiny.

It’s much easier to focus on the freedom that comes with growing up than it is to think about all of the responsibilities that come with it. How will Krystal adjust to the new rules in her life?

One of the things I look for in a protagonist is someone whose faults could actually have a negative effect on the plot. Krystal definitely fits this bill. Knowing that she isn’t perfect, and, more importantly, that there’s a chance she could make a big mistake that unravels all of the good she’s trying to do was helpful. I liked what the author did with this character’s personality and development.

There was a lot of telling instead of showing in this novella. It was especially noticeable in the dialogue. I learned almost everything I know about Krystal’s importance to her people through conversations with her mother. It felt odd for these two characters to go into so much detail about this part of their lives when no one else was around because all of it was stuff their whole family had been aware of for a very long time.

I’ve always had the impression that elves are absolutely horrified by modern human technology, so it was intriguing to see something written about their race that was set in the present day. Ms. Solorzano struck a delicate balance between portraying the quiet, nature-loving elements of their culture that I’d expect to see while also showing how they might thrive in the twenty-first century.

Figuring out the most appropriate age recommendation was really tricky. Krystal acts much younger than her chronological age for reasons that I never figured out. The writing style included playful plot twists that are much more common in middle grade fiction, yet there were also explicit sexual content that I’ve only ever seen written for mature teens. It’s quite unusual to see these kinds of things included in the same book. I even briefly wondered if Krystal had some sort of learning or developmental disorder due to certain things that happen in the first few scenes. Had the author provided even a brief explanation of what was going on here, I would have felt comfortable giving this tale a higher rating.

If there’s one thing a decent villain needs to be, it’s legitimately dangerous. I was pleasantly surprised by just how frightening the villain in this story turned out to be. The threat to Krystal’s safety is made painfully obvious as the identity of her antagonist is exposed. There is no doubt here at all that this bad guy has terrible intentions.

Krystal’s Calling is a good choice for anyone who really enjoys fantasy stories about elves.

And why can’t he stop thinking about her? She’s a sexual whirlwind of every pent-up desire and fantasy he’s ever had, and she doesn’t seem to be disappearing any time soon.

The novel opens with Michael having phone sex with an unknown individual. I couldn’t help but wonder if perhaps later in the novel the person would be revealed.

One of the bright points of this short story is that the author does a good job of setting the scene. In the beginning of the novel I was enjoying the author’s writing style and the flow of words. The description of the rain clouds and the description of the bedroom scenes had the making of a four star rating.

I was curious as to why the dream lady was appearing in Michael’s dreams. She introduced herself as Melissa. Michael compared women he knew to the fictitious Melissa. Being with Melissa felt right despite the strangeness of it all. This premise drew me in.

Then I noticed an odd pattern. The author introduced characters without creating a visual or any type of connection to the story. It’s like they were added to the story but really didn’t have any importance, just someone for the main character to converse with.

Lisa wasn’t one of those random characters. Instead, she makes up the third corner of this curious triangle. Lisa is a co-worker who Michael found himself attracted to. They go out on a first date and at the end of the first date Lisa stated she did not think they should move so fast after only the first day. That was fine but then on the second date they start a sexual relationship. This causes a conflict with Michael because he now feels guilty about the two relationships…Melissa the lady that visits him in his dreams and now Lisa the lady he is drawn to in reality.

The relationship between Michael and Lisa was quick. It’s clear that Michael is attracted to Lisa but their relationship was shallow beyond the attraction. I did not get a fuzzy romantic love feeling I like to read in a romance. Michael was acting more on physical desire and the relationship did not develop past the sex. Lisa makes Michael happy, though I’m not sure how since the author didn’t go that deep into the relationship.

The idea behind the plot was unique. A dream lady versus choosing a lady of flesh and blood. The execution lacked depth. I kept waiting for my questions to be answered. At the closing of the novel the author did add a brief paranormal twist that seem kind of rushed and lacked detail. Without giving specifics, I’ll say the ending left me puzzled but it might work for another reader.

This short had some issues but the author had a writing style that appealed to me and kept me reading. It was a quick and interesting read. Readers who enjoy a good puzzle in their books should check this out and see if you can fit the pieces together.

I liked both these characters but felt with the two sub-plots that were added to this story–the stalker neighbor, and the ex-girlfriend who won’t let go–the book needed to be longer to accommodate them and do them justice to this sexy read. I would think both would have upped the conflict for these two characters and their happily ever after, but instead the solution for both seemed rushed at the end.

Besides that the pacing was fast and the dialogue downright sexy. The secondary characters were well drawn and I especially liked Jace’s parents, and another reason I would have like to have seen a longer plot so these two could have had more scenes with their son. Their conversations with him were interesting and offered lots of insight into who he was and his past relationship.

If you like a smoldering hot read but only have an hour or so for your reading fix, this is one you might like to check out.
