THIGH HIGH – Bonnie Edwards

Kensington Aphrodisa

ISBN: 0-7582-1774-9

February 2008

Erotic 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.
