I enjoyed this novella about a male prostitute in Paris and a woman who knows what she wants and isn't willing to settle for less. I understand there are further stories coming involving these characters, and I look forward to reading them. The erotic scenes were very well done, and the characters ...

This is one of them books where even if you delete all sexual activities you can still feel both mc and it drags you in, Especially Didier... although he is an expert on his profession and popular to his clients, his vulnerability shows in the most inner way and you can't help but wanted to hold his...

So why a 4 and not a 5. I'm not sure. I think this may have been more of a 4.25--just not quite enough to bump it up to a five for me. I think because I was expecting it to be hotter. It wasn't even a regular Ellora's Cave book it was Exotica, so I go into that expecting something. Not to mentio...

The heroine bugged me to elevated levels, and there was just no warming up to her as the story progressed, since it was in her first person POV. I tried, and I finished this, but it did not captivate me the way it did for others.

4 Stars, but didn't happen for me until I was about 70% complete.Let me tell you why ... Caroly.Caroly is fast approaching 30 and is still a virgin. She is a virgin because, as described in the very first chapter or so, she was only attracted to very good looking men. Model perfect looking men. The ...

So this is suppose to be erotica, but I don't feel comfortable rating it like one. Don't get me wrong it had sex in it. She's a virgin who comes to a prostitute to finally get it done and over with. But there is a lot more emotions going on then just lust.I don't want to say too much more just in ca...

This was a miss for me. It was okay, but it felt like the author was trying to be too blase' about the virgin's sexuality. She was way too comfortable with some things, and then ridiculously, annoyingly shy about others. It just didn't seem realistic. I kept wanting to say, "So, you're okay say...

4 1/2 stars. I’ve joked before that I’m the only person in the world who reads erotic romance for the story, but reading Curio made me realize that it’s really not a joke. Story is always the most important part of a book to me -- it’s just that in interesting erotica, the story is about how people...

This was totally not what I thought it would be (I've had several of those lately), but it was still really good! It's only semi-hot really. Maybe it should have been hotter to me, but maybe I'm ruined for reading about regular vanilla sex, lmao! The man-whore was a well-known model. The girl, Carol...

The novella was undoubtedly fascinating and beautifully written. Didier is a nice character: captivating like an Epicurean and fragile like a child, but as for Caroly, her fantasies are not my fantasies. So, being inside her head for the whole story was -although necessary- at times annoying and at...
