Doctrine of Indecency: 18 Coveted Tales of Lust

This was a complimentary offer so I gave it a try. The stories are good - fairly well written - but so typical of others I've read. It seems as if books use the same situations over and over. Are all men so coldly perfect? Do all women crave spankings? I'd love to read stories that are sexy but more about plot than one long, drawn out sex scene. If you like sexy, you'll find it here. If you're looking for different - keep looking.

The trick to writing erotica is being able to write a fully developed story line and add just the right amount of erotic imagry to create a story which both entertains and arouses readers at same time. There is an almost poetic art to it, a delicate balance. A balance few of the stories found in Doctrine of Indecency: 18 Coveted Tales of Lust, edited by Virginia Lee Johnson and Kat Mizera, manage to achieve. Most of the stories, while not of the exceptional variety, were not bad stories and some were quite entertaining.

Inferno by Kat MizeraI got this book specifically for Kat Mizera's contribution to the book, Inferno. I have loved EVERY SINGLE THING that I have read by her. When Dante's character was introduced in the Sidewinders series I knew I wanted more of him. Lucky for me Kat had same idea. Inferno introduces us to Dante and the hell that is his life. Meeting Becca shows him what he's been missing in his life...love. Unfortunately, Dante is not really at a place in his life where he can explore what love might be. I will be counting the days until Dante's full length story is released.

This was, overall, a great collection of sexy stories. Most were very good, and there were a few excellent standouts for me: Inferno by Kat Mizera, A Cabin...Somewhere by Kyle Perkins, and Pepper's Play Pen by Mia Sparks. Those were fantastic. I had to knock off a star on the rating because one of the stories, House of the Rising Sun by LJ SeXton had so many writing issues it was difficult to read. Her use of Mona Mi, for what I assume should have been Mon ami(e) - there is no character named Mona in the story - was distracting. Other than that, I'd highly recommend this book!

Fantasies fulfilled -- BBW's, marriages on the rocks, threesomes fulfilling their fantasies, surprises, and a few paranormal/alien/space fantasies. Surprise endings are all I can say.

A few of the stories were OK, but most needed serious editing help. None of them are developed nearly enough.

A good read for people who are in to the series recommend highly can't wait for the next one of the series a really enjoyable read but quick shaping up to be a enjoyable series must read the next one of the series some stories are better than others but enjoyable

There is a good mix of styles romance horror mystery etc all a little spicy to down right naughty! Liked it a lot introductions to some new to me authors good work. 5 stars this is a freely given honest review . You should get this book ,couldn't stop 'til I was done .

This book was quite a mix of erotic romance stories with varying sub-genres. I have to admit that my favourites veered toward the paranormal, sci-fi, and fantasy genres. There was also quite a mix of talent. Some stories were well written and absorbing, whilst others were not. I definitely wouldn't have picked the first story to lead the book as it was far from the strongest.My favourite stories were: Pleasure Bite by Brianna West Suicide Mission by Lila Vale

What an absolute amazing collection of sexy and dark short stories. I was captivated from the first story. Every story was different and had me all hot and bothered. Some stories I didn't want to end and I was desperate to carry on with the story but to my delight I found out that some of the story's will be a full length book at some point.Overall these stories are definitely worth a read. :-)

A big book of smexy tales. Fancy a taste of "new to you" authors. So many to choose from... go on, dig in!

all stories predictable
