Anthology
Three
hot stories that will have you running out and buying some thigh
highs of your own to surprise the man in your life… ;-)
Thigh High
Anywhere
Kat
Hardee has been harboring a secret crush on her next door neighbor
Taye Connors for months. When her friend and neighbor, Celia,
challenges Kat to go after Taye, Kat has to shake off her initial
shyness and figure out the best way to attract him. Then a mix up
has Taye literally showing up on her doorstep.
Taye
receives a delivery that he mistakes for his and opens it. To his
surprise there is an assortment of sexual toys and garments
(including thigh highs) that send his libido skyrocketing when he
discovers the package is really for Kat, who he learns is a party
products demonstrator. After delivering the errant box to its
rightful owner, Taye and Kat get to know each other and are soon
embarking on an affair where the sex is great but both wonder if
there’s a future together for them.
Oozing
with sensuality that scorches the pages, Thigh High is a
great way to open. Kat has insecurities about attracting Taye, while
he feels the same about her! Once they get over their initial
threshold of “is this the right thing for them” then Thigh High
evolves into a wonderfully satisfying romance. If you’re like me,
you’ll be rooting for Taye and Kat to have their happily ever after.
Parlor Games
Seattle, Washington area
Matt
Crewe and Carrie MacLean are attending a charity auction at
Perdition House that is unlike any other auction: men are sold to
women for a weekend of sex. Unbeknownst to each other, both are
there investigating Perdition House to expose it for being no more
than like a whore house. But neither expects the effect staying
there has on them. Immediately attracted to each other in a lustful,
primal way, it ends up with Carrie buying Matt for a weekend neither
may soon forget.
However, what Matt and Carrie don’t realize is the powerful magic of
some very convincing ghosts. Is the attraction between Matt and
Carrie real, or just the result of ghostly shenanigans?
Bonnie
Edwards gives readers a treat with another story set at the ghostly
mansion of Perdition House. We also revisit Faye Grantham and Liam
Watson from the Midnight Confessions books.
The
sensual illusion that engulfs Matt and Carrie in Parlor Games
is intriguing, but even without it, the attraction between them is
genuine. But with each having their own agenda, and with ghosts who
apparently are aware of this fact, it will only be a matter of time
before their mission will come out in the open. The sex is hot, the
story is good enough that I wished for a longer version. Ah, well,
maybe there will be more tales from Perdition House. We can only
hope!
Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Thong
Victoria, British Columbia
Francesca “Frankie” Volpe is a woman with a secret and has a very
big problem at the moment. While on a yacht trying to retrieve a
diamond encrusted thong (yes, diamonds as in gems you normally wear
as jewelry, not as underwear) for her sister when a scruffy dog
that’s hanging around grabs the thong and takes off. Frankie’s chase
of the mutt ends up at the float home of disc jockey Daniel Martin.
Daniel
likes his vagabond lifestyle and his job working nights at the radio
station. When one very attractive Frankie lands on his dock, he’s
instantly attracted. He’s aware she’s not completely truthful with
him, but he slides past that. He’ll do anything for her, even though
she might be on the run from the law, if it means Frankie’s in his
bed.
Totally
fun and even more so sizzling hot, Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Thong
is full of surprises and a bit of humor. I mean, who would wear a
diamond thong? Wouldn’t it be painful to sit down? While Frankie and
Daniel worked on getting back the entertaining bit of glittery
underwear, Ms. Edwards had me a little fooled as to what Frankie’s
secret was, which made the whole story highly entertaining. As for
Daniel, he’s totally smitten with Frankie, but when a career bump
has him trying to decide which way to go, even that kept me
guessing.
After
reading all three stories in THIGH HIGH, I found it hard to decide
which was the best. I finally came to the conclusion that all were
unique and equally enjoyable. I suspect you’ll feel the same. Grab
your copy of THIGH HIGH and be prepared for some non stop reading.
