I Love Bad Boys

A collection of 3 novellas of erotic romance. There is a highish price tag on this trilogy, but it is definitely worth it if `hot' is your bag, as these steamy stories are great representatives of their type.`Indulge Me' is the second story of three that Foster is telling about 3 friends who make a bet to visit a newly opened porn shop in their squeaky clean middle America town. Becky Harte's is the middle story (it doesn't take any psychic talent to forsee that the 3 stories will probably be amalgamated into one volume and reprinted by the publisher at a later date - like `The Winston Brothers'). Becky is quiet, shy and hiding something. She needs to find someone who is into bondage in order to release her inhibitions and let herself go wild. George Westin has fancied Becky the entire time they'd been working for the same company, but was convinced Becky did not reciprocate his interest. When he found out from a friend what Becky was planning, George resolved to become her partner. Only he thought that she would be the one tied up... but that was not Becky's plan at all.`Naughty by Night' tells the story of Chloe Anderson and Gabe Mackenzie, ex friends and almost lovers. The trust between them was shattered six years ago when Gabe appeared to lead Chloe along and then dump her, then heading out of town to Chicago, where he has since made a name for himself as a sports agent. They still know each other through Chloe's brothers, but are no longer truly friends and see each other very infrequently. He's in town again, at the poker game that Chloe and her brothers play weekly. And something seems to have changed - the sexually charged atmosphere always simmering between them has jumped up a notch or twelve. Ultimately more than money is bet, and now Gabe is hers for 3 hot dates. Dates that Chloe means to bring things to a boil and sear Gabe from her system once and for all. You know what they say about the best laid plans...`And When They Were Bad' is about Cameron James IV, who has had a very bad year. He's now vacationing at Intimacies, a chance to lose the `good boy' that he's been all his life and find his wild side at this private club where anything goes. Allison Walker is hardly the woman of his fantasies - a bit clumsy, always getting herself into deep water, and physically not his type. And yet he can't seem to stop himself from helping her out, can't seem to avoid running into her, and can't seem to get her out of his mind, until the situation presents itself when he can act on his surprising attraction.I liked all 3 stories, although the first and last were my favourites because they featured shy or insecure women who came into their own. And as for heat - phew!

I Love Bad Boys is a collection of three hot, fun-to-read stories. Lori Foster's contribution, Indulge Me, is the second installment in her trilogy of novellas about 3 friends, the new sex shop in town, a pact - and a steamy romance for each. Indulge Me is Becky and George's story, a fun and sexy tale about shy Becky's fantasies, and how George fullfills them. (Don't miss Lori Foster's stories about Becky's friends! You can find Asia and Cameron's story in Satisfy Me, Lori Foster's contribution to the anthology All Through the Night. Erica has her turn in Drive Me Wild, in the I Brake for Bad Boys anthology.) In "Naughty by Night," Janelle Denison tells the story of former football player Gabe and Chloe, the woman he's wanted for years. When he blew out his knee - and with it, his chances of an NFL career - giving her up seemed like the honorable thing to do. Now, he's back. Can Chloe forgive him? "When They Were Bad" by Donna Kauffman is the story of Cameron and Allison, two people who temporarily leave their "real" lives behind, in hopes of finding their wild sides at an intimate resort in the Caribbean. You'll want to read more by all three of these authors!

Three's a crowd - but the triumvirate of erotic romance author can hardly do any wrong here except being at their most irreverent and indulgent to translate their inner fantasies to sizzling stories. Lori Foster spearheads with INDULGE ME picking up the story on innocent Becky Harte fulfilling a dare to venture into the scandalous porn shop in local Indiana. Mortification grips her when she meets her gorgeous supervisor George Westin - and erroneously thought her to develop a fetish for bondage. It is such riotous fun when the devilish George gets more than he bargains for and tender passion when Becky reveals her insecurities with the flaws on her body. Seasoned Harlequin writer Janelle Denison raises temperature with Naughty By Night - a simple tale about Gabe Mackenzie reclaiming his lost love through a poker card game that grants Chloe four nights of enslaved passion. Ms. Denison's idea of an erotic night is sparkingly romantic and original - and proves even watching a date movie with a loved one can be evocative in communication. Even Donna Kauffman cannot resist to stage a full-blown sexual escapade with distressed magnate Cameron James VI coming to a private resort dedicated to sensual pleasures and finds love in a remote island. The passionate play at the waterfall is sensuous and mystic; Ally and Cameron are two kindred spirits with heart and soul. I Love Bad Boys teases the senses with its risque theme on dangerous and virile men in their quest for love. It is wild, lush and deliciously sexy. Serves to remind us that sometimes being badder can be better.

"Indulge Me" by Lori Foster. Reticent Becky enters a sex shop at the coaxing of her friends. Following her into the shop is George, who lusts after Becky. George helps Becky purchase some items and persuades her to let him introduce her to the world of light sexual bondage. George begins to kiss Becky, but she slows him down. He agrees because he wants more than just a one-night stand."Naughty by Night" by Janelle Denison. Gabe returns to San Diego to get Chloe back in his life after he left her six years ago. At a poker game they agree to a special stake. Chloe wins and tells Gabe he will service her for the next four nights. Gabe thinks this is the opportunity he needs, but Chloe plans to use him before leaving him."And When They Were Bad" by Donna Kauffman. Cameron is tired of being the Good Samaritan to the world. He travels to an exclusive island club to play out his fantasy of being a bad boy. At the isle, he intercedes twice when males manhandle Allison. Cam and Allie make love, but she plans to leave in the morning because she believes Cam would never want her in his life.These three tales star couples in which an inexperienced woman gets the man of her dreams to make love to her several times and in several ways before he proposes marriage to her. The stories are fun as they contain light bondage, excessive profanity, and heated graphic tales of sex leading to love.Harriet Klausner

I Love Bad Boys is a new Brava anthology featuring stories by Lori Foster, Janelle Denison, and Donna Kauffman. For those of you who've not had the pleasure of reading these three talented authors, you're in for a definite treat! First up is Foster's Indulge Me. I must say that this one was my favorite of the three. It's the entertaining tale of shy Becky Harte and George Westin, the man who's had a featured role in Becky's dreams for the past 2 years, unbeknownst to him. Challenged by two of her pals, Becky enters an intimate shop, where she runs into George, and though mortified at being seen THERE by him, she does manage to survive the experience. Indeed, meeting there gives Becky and George a window into each other's deepest thoughts and desires. This story is VERY sexy and erotic. But it's more than that, too. It has elements of fun and humor as well as vulnerability. I also enjoyed the friendship that exists between Becky and her friends, Asia and Erica. For this story alone, I Love Bad Boys is more than worth the trip to the bookstore. But add in the other stories, and you've got quite a find! The second story in the anthology is Naughty by Night by Janelle Denison. This is a wonderful story about the romance of Chloe Anderson and Gabe Mackenzie, two people who've actually been in love for years but were kept apart by Gabe's stubborn pride. A poker game wager brings the two closer together, allowing them to indulge their wildest fantasies. The last story is Donna Kauffman's And When They Were Bad, which tells the story of Cameron James and Ally Walker, who meet at a private club called Intimacies where anything goes. Ally and Cam are both trying to find out more about themselves and what they want out of life, and in so doing they discover a lot about each other, too. If you like sexy stories (and I mean sexy), interesting men, and happy endings then I Love Bad Boys will be right up your alley.
