Pleasure Control

If their new drug doesn't pass muster with the board, scientists Laura Manning and Jay Cutler will not receive the additional funding they need. To prove the libido suppressant works and not just on their lab rats, they decide to test the drug on themselves. After Jay is injected with the lust-killing drug, it's Laura's job to test its effectiveness. Laura must employ her womanly wiles to arouse Jay. Using romantic music and sexy lingerie, Laura will do her best to entice Jay. If the drug works, Jay's libido will not respond. If the drug fails, Jay promises to more than satisfy! With Pleasure Control, Cathryn Fox delivers a very lusty tale. But don't worry, there is plenty of romance too! Jay and Laura's love story is very erotic and had me clenching my knees. And wiggling. A lot! I learned my lesson with Pleasure Control, never, ever, read a Cathryn Fox book at work. I thought the day would never end! Jay and Laura's love story is delicious. I am excited to see that a secondary character, Erin will have her own book in 2007, Pleasure Prolonged. This promises to be a hot and sexy series! For a romance with lots of erotic, pulse pounding sex, I recommend Pleasure Control. Annmarie Reviewed for Joyfully Reviewed

Whoa, it's hot in the lab when Cathryn Fox starts fooling around in it. Pleasure Control is a really fun and believable story with INCREDIBLE sex scenes. What I loved about it was the characters shared genuine feelings which led to amazing foreplay and very satisfying sex. An added bonus is the inventiveness of her lab plot. For my money, Cathryn Fox's Pleasure Control was an out-of-control erotic romance read. I can't wait for Pleasure Prolonged!

Get out your fans! Whew! You'll need it while reading this one! Brainy lab scientist Laura Manning has got a two big problems 1) she has to present the findings of her lastest project to the broard in a little over one week and 2) that would be easier if she didn't have sexier-than-sin Jay Cutler as her lab partner, all added to the fact that someone is out to get their secret files on the project by any means. So exactly how are they going to test their 'pleasure control' drug without anyone finding out their results before they present them to the board? -on themselves of course! Laura thinks that this is all in the name of science, but Jay has other ideas and after the 'experiments' are over, he's thinking of a more permanent relationship. But, "Wildman" Jay Cutler has really got his work cut out for him because Laura has a hard time believing it's her that he wants and not because he was under the influence of the pleasure drugs. This is a really good debut. A very hot book. If your looking for lots of scorching hot love scenes in a contemporary then this one is for you. But my biggest gripe is the length, which is a little over 200 hundred pages with large type. I think the author could have added another 100 pages easily (perhaps it's the fault of the editors?). It was just over too fast for me and the overall scenes could have been more descriptive. I did enjoy it though and I'll definitely be getting the sequel. There's lots of room for improvement, but I think that Fox has a good start. A very good short and heavy-on-the-love-scenes contemporary read.

If you enjoy the type of spicy romance where pleasure warrants a capital P, do *not* miss this one. Pleasure Control by Cathryn Fox is a story that will make you laugh, make you sigh and make you wish you'd booked a room at the Ice Hotel! This is one hot read!

Lab partners Laura Manning and Jay Cutler are concerned that their funding might be cut especially if their grant request is rejected. Jay says he will serve as the guinea pig to see if their serum will suppress male libidos as their work must remain top secret so no one else would do. Laura says if this works on "Little Jay" it would on everyone as he has a different woman seemingly every weekend. He insists that she be his accompaniment this time to insure he is okay and to keep their work out of the hands of corporate spies. As they spend the weekend together, Little Jay seems to prove their elixir fails as it has a mind of its own when it comes to Laura. She begins to believe her dreams of loving him forever may come true while he wonders if perhaps he is not the cold-hearted SOB that his mom insisted he is as he now knows his feelings that he hid from with a plethora of females mean love. However both have doubts as this is a chemical experiment. PLEASURE CONTROL feels like a modern day but much hotter version of the Grant-Rogers film Monkey Business. The lead couple is a delightful pairing of two scientists with doubts about relationships outside the Bunsen burner world. The story line hooks the audience from the start and keeps readers throughout in a one sitting pleasurable read. Harriet Klausner
