​This is my first time reading Biblical Erotica, something a little unusual and a little rare. It usually takes the weird or wonderful to make me want to read erotica anyway and Sheba's Lovely Maidens has that touch of oddness about it that attracted me to read it. 
The story revolves around the mythical visit to King Solomon in Jerusalem, by the beautiful, rich, and powerful Queen of Sheba, from North Africa. 
The first thing I particularly liked about this story was that it didn't actually focus on the relationship between the Queen of Sheba and King Solomon, that was merely the sideshow to the true action. No, the story was really about a shy, handmaiden of the Queen who meets and is smitten with a young Jewish man. 
The erotica was beautifully written; very sexy and arousing. I enjoyed Guillaume's luscious descriptions, which never descended into vulgarity, but still left nothing to our fevered imaginations. 
I could certainly see Sheba's Lovely Maidens as a book you would keep beside your bed and read on a lonely, cold night. Trust me, it would warm you up pretty quick.
Because this is a short book, at only 57 pages on Kindle, I don't think I can give it five stars, but it is a four-star plus book in its genre. A very good read Fionna Guillaume and thank you for it.

​Eve 'n' Steven by Suzie Jay is a straight out and out chick/lit romance and makes no bones about it. I'm hardly the author's target audience, but I'll admit to having a tiny, wee, soft spot for a well, written chick/lit. from time to time. This book is exactly that. Well written and the perfect way to get my secret fix of romance. 
The title intrigued me, to begin with. I checked out the author and realized she had already penned a book in this story and that also had a clever title. I like authors that come up with catchy titles, so in my book, she was onto a winner from the get-go. Having a main character named Eve has clearly given her some artistic license and more power to her. More authors should think outside the box when they come up with their character and title names. 
The plot is relatively straightforward. Our hero, Eve, left the tiny dirt-poor, country town she grew up in to go and show the world what she was made of. A ragingly successful career in New York has seen her wealthy  and in a wonderful relationship with Grayson and his two children. 
With both her parents now passed, it is time to return to the farm, tidy it up and sell it. The only hitch - Steven, her "childhood sweetheart" is still there and he was one of the many reasons she chose to leave so many years ago. Everyone expected her and Steven to end up together, but not Eve. 
How would she cope with seeing Steven again and reliving all those old memories on the farm? Read this book and find out! 
I have to say, I'm becoming quite enamoured with this author. I read a children's book of hers just recently and thoroughly enjoyed her. She has a laid-back writing style, which really appeals to me. My only one, tiny, little laugh about Eve 'n' Steven, was when Jay gave away her Australian roots in the story. The characters were American and based in New York or the Midwest and yet apparently two of them looked like "a couple of dags". I'm pretty sure only a New Zealander or an Australian would get what that meant. It just added to the fun for me in this book. 
I highly recommend you give it a go, especially if you're a chick/lit, romance fan. I loved it and gave it a full five stars. I'd better check out what else Suzie Jay has on offer.

​Watch Me, by Patient Lee, is an erotic short story. At only twenty-nine pages it is very short, but it covers an experience that I'm sure many of us have fantasised about at one time or another: Exhibitionism. 
As a relative newcomer to erotic literature, I was not sure what to expect, but this is the second book of Patient Lee's that I've been fortunate to read and I can say if all erotic literature is as enjoyable as these two books, I've found a new genre to enjoy (albeit discreetly). Seriously, though, I am a fan of Lee's now and I'm sure I'll read more of his/her work, as well as others in this genre. 
The story involves a couple (with children) who find themselves in the rare position of spending a night in a hotel room in New York, without interference from either parent's (who are doing the babysitting) or children. 
They take the opportunity to indulge their desire to not only make passionate love but to do it in the hotel bedroom window, in full view, with some interesting results.
A good quick read that is bound to put you "in the mood". I would recommend this for a fun, quick read.

​Erotica is certainly not my first choice of reading material, but after being gifted Wicked Hot, by Patient Lee, perhaps I should be asking - why not? 
Wicked Hot is exactly what the title implies - it is wicked hot. The author points out that the use of the word wicked to describe the activity is a colloquialism that means incredible or amazing. I would suspect that it is in pretty common usage these days and didn't need the explanatory, but I get the point and this book is both Wicked Hot and wickedly hot. 
The story is not particularly original, but then again, I suspect being original in erotica is pretty damn difficult, so what it comes down to, as far as enjoyment of the story is concerned is the skill of the writer in taking you along on their journey of erotica. I would have to say Patient Lee did a pretty good job of dragging me along for his/her ride of passion and lust. 
We meet Amy and Kevin, a respectable middle-class couple who decided, on a whim, to act out their fantasies about group sex whilst on a camping trip to attend a wedding. Both admit to the fantasies, but Amy is not so sure she should entertain them let alone act on them. 
This was an enjoyable, albeit short read and one I'm sure fans of erotica will enjoy. Lee has a crisp, no-nonsense writing style, that I particularly like and I can assure you the steamy scenes will definitely excite. 
A great book to read in bed on a cold and wet night. Four solid stars from me for Wicked Hot by Patient Lee

​For me, Angela Lockwood has epitomised why it is important and refreshing to read Indie Authors.
She has taken a genre that has been grossly overworked and become rather formulaic and put a whole new, fresh, take on it. Language in the Blood is one of those books that reminds us that it is the Indie Authors, these days, who have the fresh, interesting ideas in literature. Kudos to Lockwood. 
Vampires and fantasy, in general, are not my favourite genre, but Language in the Blood was definitely a book I struggled to put down. I wanted to find our what happened next to our anti-hero Cameron. 
Cameron, a young Scottish boy, like so many others at the time, saw the First World War as an opportunity for a bit of excitement and travel. He discovered very quickly that War was brutal and worst of all, rather than dying in no-mans land, where he lay dying, he was revived by a bite from a Vampire. 
What followed was essentially an autobiography of a Vampire as he traversed the twentieth century and beyond. Cameron, was at times, nasty, vicious, arrogant, self-centred, and hedonistic in his approach to his life as a Vampire, however the author was able to instil something in him that pleaded for the reader's understanding and empathy. He was a character that you desperately wanted to hate, but somehow you couldn't and that is a direct compliment to the author. There were some wonderfully comedic moments in the story and memorable lines delivered by Cameron and in a book that brings us some of the basest pleasures, this was a delight and again a tribute to the author's skills.   
I liked the style the story was written, using flashbacks between the past and current times. We followed Cameron from WWI, through the Roaring 20's, the Great Depression, WWII and on until the time of Facebook and Internet Chat Rooms.
This was a very engaging story and I did enjoy it a lot. If you love Vampires, but are tired of the same old stories, then Language in the Blood: Book 1 will be an incredibly enjoyable read for you, I'm sure. There is room for a sequel and I see on Amazon that Language in the Blood: Book 2 is also available. I will be checking it out for sure Within its genre I think Language in the Blood: Book 1 is a standout and for that reason justifies the full 5-Stars I am awarding it. Good job - excellent book.
