Customer Reviews

Share it with someone special

This is a great gift for someone when you are at that certain point in the relationship when something sexy is appropriate. The author really knows his (her?) "good parts". There is a second volume, The Hot Spots and together these books display an amazing knowledge of the more literate erotic writing. After reading some of the selections, you'll want to pick up the book from which they were excerpted.
