“Secret Thoughts: Erotique is packed with story after story written by these six authors, each with a unique feel and wonderfully layered approach to the art of writing erotica. I believe there is a distinct difference between that which is pornographic and that which is erotic, and these six writers accomplish that beautifully. This is a must have piece of work for anyone who is a serious reader and collector of erotica.” ~ www.lazygeisha.com
When the first Secret Thoughts Collection was released, not many places were intersted in reviewing it. Mrs.Giggles did, and so did Lazy Giesha, (to read the Lazy Geisha review click here, it is a PDF file) but that was about it. This morning, a review from Romance Junkies for the second Secret Thoughts collection arrived in my inbox…and can I just say YAY!!!
The Secret Thoughts collections are special to me. They were birthed from my free online magazine of the same name. ST used to be a monthly magazine with covers, book features and reviews as wellas free reads and editorial columns. I had a blast with it, but it became a bit too much for me to handle with my writing and working as well, so I ended it. And when I ended it I approached Samhain owner Crissy Brashear witht the idea of doing the straight erotica collections as eBook anthologies.
Crissy is a smart women, and not afraid to try new things, so she let me go to it. I called up some of the authors I know who enjoy writing erotica, and short, and we were off.
And I’m thrilled to announce that not only have the eBook collections been received very well, but Erotique and Lustful will be combined into one, and release in print format! The Release date for Secret Thoughts print novel is set for October 28, 2008.
Now, check out what Amanda from Romance Junkies has to say about the short stories in Lustful .
Secret Thoughts II: Lustful
By: Sasha White, Laura Bacchi, S. Desires, J.J. Massa and Beth Williamson
5 Blue RibbonsSNIPPET: Join a group of the world’s best erotica authors as they bring everyone’s fantasies to life in this titillating collection. Reader’s will never be the same after reading this anthology and will be looking to find some sexual relief!
The Cable Guy by Beth Williamson
THE CABLE GUY was so much fun! I loved the age difference aspect to it. It made me realize that sometimes an older woman can still snag that young, sexy guy.Man Ho by Laura Bacchi
MAN HO is exquisite. This is my first story by Laura Bacchi but it definitely isn’t going to be my last!Connection by Sasha White
CONNECTION, by Sasha White, is titillating, exotic and so damn erotic it made my teeth sweat!Shadows Blending by S. Desires
I loved the feel of two strangers meeting for the first time just to experience anonymous pleasure. This was a very original road to take for an erotica story and my mouth was watering from beginning to end.The Bridge by J.J. Massa
Sex in public has never been so exotic. THE BRIDGE by J.J. Massa truly made me tingle in all the right places. I’m a big fan of J.J. Massa’s and I think this is probably my favorite story ever!Teasing the Senses by S. Desires
TEASING THE SENSES is exquisite. This is truly a story of undeniable passion between two lovers. The senses are awakened and sex takes on a whole new meaning for both the characters and the reader. I really love the anonymity of S. Desires characters. I am not any less drawn into the story because of it. In fact, I find myself more absorbed by the actual storyline. This was a very passionate story and I think it will definitely tease the reader’s senses!Double Trouble by Laura Bacchi
DOUBLE TROUBLE by Laura Bacchi was smokin’ hot! I was unable to tear my eyes away from the pages for even a heartbeat. I honestly think this was the most sinfully delicious story I have ever read. I never knew sex with twins could be so arousing. There is an air of danger throughout this story too. Mindy is on the run from something and the twins have something up their sleeve. All that can wait though, until the sex is done!After Class by J.J. Massa
AFTER CLASS is exquisite! We’ve all fantasized about a hot teacher at one time or another. J.J. Massa takes it one step further and makes it a reality. Only this time, it’s not your regular male on female fantasy— it’s male on male. This was such a wonderful treat! I loved the titillating details during this story. I actually felt like I was a fly on the wall in the office. If you love male on male action, definitely read AFTER CLASS. It is erotica at its best!The Wedding Gift by Beth Williamson
THE WEDDING GIFT by Beth Williamson was great fun! I really enjoyed the fact that Veronica just got to stand there while some strange man went down on her. I think this is every woman’s fantasy…to just have a man do all the work while we just enjoy it. I know it never really happens, but heck, that’s why it’s a fantasy right?Private Pleasure by Sasha White
This was a very passionate story. Although no names are mentioned, I felt completely connected to both characters. The master, a man who knows just what his sub needs, really made me realize the pleasure in this kind of sex play. The sub, a woman whose passion craves her master’s touch, will give up her heart to him just to get what she needs. Although nothing is actually said straight out about a happily ever after, I truly could feel the connection between these two. This is definitely a couple who belongs together! PRIVATE PLEASURE is a look into a BD/SM couple and all their glory together.Everything about SECRET THOUGHTS II: LUSTFUL is exquisite. Combined with realistic fantasies and the writings of today’s hottest erotica authors, this was a collection I could not put down! I was immersed from the very first story and there wasn’t a single drawback to any of them. The characters and situations were completely believable, the sex was fantastic and each story left me feeling like everyone was happy! How much better can a collection of erotic stories get? This is, without a doubt, a collection of stories I’m going to re-read over and over again!
