Menagerie

This was a wonderful book and was a super hot read. I enjoyed it from start to finish. I highly recommend it.

I really enjoyed this read. While I'm one of those readers who usually guesses the ending by the third page, this one surprised me -- happily. Creative idea, good characters, interesting premise. I really enjoyed this book and the relationships between the characters. When I lose track of time reading a book that means it's held my interest -- and this one did that. I would love to see a sequel to it (can't say more than that without a spoiler) and look forward to other works by the author.

My first time reading the author and I truly enjoyed the premise of the book and greatly appreciated the unexpected, unpredictable ending. After I finished reading the book I spent time just contemplating how my personality could be disected. Very interesting reading and it takes alot to surprise me.

Valerie Thornhill's day can't get any worse. First she wakes up and finds herself looking at a man who is blue. Then, Mr. Blue had the audacity to tell her that she has to have sex with five different men in order to save their lives. Valerie has been abducted by aliens. Taken to their world, she is told that for the duration of her time on the spaceship she is to service five men sexually for five years. If she decides not to have sex with the men who pick her, they could die. She figures she will make a schedule and go about her duties without emotion. She doesn't count on the fact that she will want and desire each individual man, and she should, equally. Therein lies Valerie's problem. One of the men has become more than a scheduled liaison -- he has become the man she loves. Good heavens above Menagerie made me squirm! From beginning to end I wanted to BE Valerie. Each male in her harem was deserving of love and I found myself individually loving every one of them. Add in the plot twist at the end and my heart smiled for a story well told. Menagerie is unlike any alien book I have ever read and the heat is out of this world. I will read Menagerie over and over. Talia reviewed for Joyfully Reviewed

I came across Lara Santiago by accident on an e-romance publishing site. This book was just recently released and it's worth the download time and money! While this is no in-depth romance Menagerie is quick paced, amusing and the steam fairly rolls off the pages. This is not a true menage book but would qualify as a multiple partner with a great twist in the end. Santiago is ingenius and in a pulp fiction world FULL of the same old stuff it's nice to see a new, refreshing idea. If you enjoy Kimberly Zant (be aware this isn't as dark as Kimberly Zant's stuff) or Kaitlyn O'Conner you will probably like this book. I'd buy it hardcover and give it a re-read and that's high praise from a jaded and frustrated e-romance writer herself! So grab it and enjoy!
