As someone who deeply appreciates reading collections of short stories (especially erotica), this book seems to be exactly what I need.
3 THINGS I LOVE ABOUT THIS BOOK:
1. Honestly, I love how this book offers fantastic opportunity to explore WIDE range of pairings like: M/F, F/F, MM, FFMFF, and MFM. Even if you enjoy M/F pairings, this book is UNIQUELY allows you to explore other dynamics. Who knows? You might even discover new pairings you never realized you'd enjoy reading! This is the kind of book that will completely captivate you. You'll get so lost in the stories that you'll want to read them again and again.
2. I really appreciate how Juniper Hartmann includes the Kink Level, specific Kinks and Trigger Warnings right at the beginning before you even start reading each story. I don't have any serious triggers BUT I find it incredibly thoughtful of the author to provide this information upfront.
NOTE: In fact, Juniper is the only author I've come across who does this consistently for her readers. I like how she clearly sets expectations for each story. It tells you exactly what's in the story before you start reading.
3. The level of spice in this book is absolutely fantastic! Juniper Hartmann truly delivers on her promise of high-heat romance. The details, the characters, and the intimate scenes are just wonderful. I absolutely love them! Me personally, I usually prefer M/F pairings and not typically drawn to reverse harem stories. But Maam, I was surprisingly captivated by the other pairings in this collection. The M/M story here? Mwah!!! It was so, soooo GOOD!
-----------
NOTE: This is my personal opinion about the book. My goal is to share my experience, not to change anyone's perspective. Thank you to Juniper Hartmann for giving me the opportunity to read this early.
