This is one of the most amazing erotic books full of romance and strange encounters. It’ll leave you wanting more as you venture through one night stands of passion, rebounds and romantic gestures. This series is the best yet!

I received this book from Net Galley in exchange for an honest review.

This was a fun way to spend an afternoon. I made myself a bubble bath and poured a glass of wine. It was a great way to enjoy this kind of anthology.

I don't always pick these kind of novels up, I will admit that it can feel naughty to purchase a novel with Erotica in the title, but I am a grown up and damn it, it sure can be fun! also, I usually don't like my stories to be so short, because to is difficult to get a feel for the characters that quickly. However, with erotica, you aren't really in it for character development.

My favorite was Take the Shot by Mica Kennedy. it was a thrill and I like the characters even in such a short story. It gave me some tingly feelings and I just flew threw it.

I am so glad I was willing to give this a read and I think you will be too if you give it a go.

This is an excellent anthology. I enjoyed the wide variety of stories. There were several new to me authors, and I will definitely be looking up their other titles after reading their work here. Very sexy and fun to read. I could read just a story or two when I had the time, or dive in and spend longer. A great book to have for the Kindle. I even read one story while standing in line!

This was the first of these volumes that I have read, and I found it to be very interesting. I appreciated the themes of ‘outsiders’ and ‘risk.’ I thought that some of the short stories were more successful in highlighting this than others. “Words with Benefits” by Tamara Lush was one of my favorites. I did not care for “Aftershock” by Jo Henny Wolf. In addition, some of the erotica scenes were much hotter than others. All of that is to be expected in an anthology, and this is one is mostly successful. I will definitely be looking for the next volume. Thank you to NetGalley, Cleis Press, and the editor for a digital ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Stories collected in this book ain't exactly "D.H. Lawrence of the 21st century", but most of them serves their purpose, i.e. - they are well written, bold and pretty damn hot; which means they can be, for example, a nice introduction to a feisty evening with your lover/spouse. If that's what you're looking for, you sure won't be disappointed.

A fantastic collection of erotic shorts by authors familiar and new to me. The stories offer a wealth of of different types of kinks, partnerings, and characters, and is incredibly diverse.

This is a great collection of stories. They’re all sexy in their own right and there’s definitely something for everyone. There are even stories that you wouldn’t think could be sot hot, but the authors knocked it out of the park.

Kind of like reading the "good parts" of a dozen romance novels, all in a row. Interesting and varied takes on the theme of outsiders. Some are better than others, but several made me wish there was a whole novel to read because the characters introduced were so interesting. Others not so much.

A good selection of easy reading short stories. Easy to pick up and put down. The stories were not outstanding but pleasant enough to read as a bit of entertainment before bed. Thank You

Another wonderful anthology of steamy stories! Great fun and perfect for reading before bed - the short stories can be finished before you nod off - no scrambling to find your page.

Hot smoking stories. Good way to try out different authors writing. Overall I liked a majority of them.

4 Stars- Any type of interest will be covered by all the top writers. There is something for everyone.
